The Texas Bond Question.
To The Editor Of tie Onion

Sir In reading communication OF "Lone Star" in
your paper OF this date, noticed the following state
ment "That State (Texas) obgates herself TO pay back
every dime she received together with 10 per cent
interest on it, This may be population in the estimation
OF the ouer-rightous. but among honest men il is all
which is required by equity and good conscience" Now,
as friend 10 Texas, and who is interested in her
prosperity beg ask her defender or defenders never
to limit the honesty of Texans small degree as
by their honest dealings and credit hope them
take rank with the citizens Of any other State, they
deservedly should aud as feel confident they will as
soon they convinced Of the propety OF fulfilling
those obligations which they have neglected 10 do c.

have quoted above from the communication OF "Lone

United States who has obligated itself pay per cent

TO its creditors that do this TO compel you to

the United States paying twenty per cent than
she obligated herself to pay, rather than depart from
