GALVESTON, Jan. 9, 1913.

OALVESTON, Jdu y, Iotc
Financial Aspect of REHABILITATION of that
State-Payment of its Debt, &c.
Let me call the attention of yourself and read
ers to the financial aspect of Texas. shall not
be able, in single letter, to exhaust the subject,
and shall, therefore, continue, if satisfactory to
you, to pursue it in future. Now that the deln-
quent States of the North are about to find sue
cess browning their efforts to redeem their Gre
dit, and discharge the interest upon their in
debtedness; and even Mississippi, which has
always denied any legal or moral obligation on
her behalf, to pay what are denomnated her
bonds, is about to make some arrangement to
regain fair name among the creditors Of the
earth; it is not inappropriate to enquire what
Texas is about to do in respect TO her liabilities.
BY reference to the message of our Governor,
who has Just been installed, you will perceive
that the first subject which he commends TO the
attention OF the Legislature, is the public debt.
He endeavors to impress upon that body the ne
cessity of adopting measures to put the public debt
IN course of liquidation. Instead OF repudiating
the debt, he repudiatcs repudiatlon-only to a
degree, however, we must admit. lie recon-
mends that ommissioners be appointed to as
certain the exact amount OF the debt, and states
his opinion that the same will not be found to
exceed tive millions of dollars: lie only pro-
poses, however, to pay upon the liabilities of the
government, the market price of the same at the
date when they were severally issued, and nte-
rest thereupon until paid.
He submits to the Legislature the propriety of
disposnc of the public lands for the purpose of
paying of this debt as soon as asccrtained; and
says that the United States, if willing to pur.
chase, is the proper one to receive an offer of
sale-the proper purchaser

to be elected. when his career was rested by
death. lst That the liabilities of the Republic
hould be redeemed at the price at which tn ey
are issued, and interest thereupon; I'd, That the
public lands should be sold to the United States
for the purpose OF raising the means tor snch
payment; Sd, That the State should be divided,
as an inducement to the United States to make
the purchase.
Now, / am aware that there be wise ones who
laugh at the latter proposition as somewhat fan
ciful and one-sided. But | confess that | am
really unable TO perceive in it any thing at all
ridiculous. That the vacant lands of Texas are
about the same as other lands IN the same longl-
tude or latitude, believe is admitted That the
United States should have the control of the
same, both for the purpose Of extingulshing the
Indian title according TO her system OF Indian
relations, and also for the purpose OF extending
over that territory the system which she has
adopted In respect OF her public lands, cannot be
questioned.
What is there, then, so particularly funny in a
proposal from Texas to the United States, to sell
her for fair equivalent the territory In question.
To some it would seem worthy OF the states
mans consideration, whether such an opportu-
nifty of imposing upon Texas an obligation to
divide her territory into several States, should
be neglected. 1t may here be remarked, also,
that II appears from the message OF Governor
Henderson, who has just retired, that the United
States h We acknowledged the proprietary and
sovereign interest of Texas, in and over the scene
of General Kearnys conquests in Santa Fe.
1t may, therefore, be fixed as inevitable, that
Texas Will make provision for the liquidation OF
what she considers, her just debt: That the
payment so made will be no uncomfortable por-
lion of the face of her bonds and notes. when
interest for eight or ten years shall be posted
upon and anded to, the amount she received;
that she Is entirely able by means OF her terri
tory to pay whatever sum she concludes upon,
and that too, whether the UNITED States buy oil
not.
may also state in conclusion of this letter
that resolution has passed the Legislature which
is now in session, that no bills shall be TAX uI
for the purpose OF making provision TO settle and
arrange any individual claims against the late
republic but that the Legislature will take vi
the subject of the whole debt, and make one pro
vision for all at the same time.
