hardly be considered in any light as a

seems TO be- victory of competency,
decency, and honesty over their oppo-

Reputation.

The United States have already
done a very large business in the re-
pudinIion Of public Indebtedness. =
Look at some OF these transactions:
1. They repudiated the Continents I
money which carried US through the
war of the Revolution.
.. The French Spoliation Claims,o
previous % 1900, which our Govern
menI IN a treaty with France agreed
10 pay, and received from that nation
valuable consideration on that acct.
3. 1t has repudiated the hundred
dollar obligation which is made with
tluse shareholders who, In the border
S.ates, emancipated their slaves In re-
lance upon its provisions contained
in a Congressional law.
4. IL has repudiated a vast number
Of legal and just war claims upon ii,
growing out Of the wantun deStruc-
uOn of private and personal property,
which, in many cases, were taken for
public uses during the armed strug-
ge between the States,
.. 1t voluntarily agreed to give a
large number of soldiers their pay IN
gold. but il broke faith with them,
anu paid in deprecated paper worth
but forty 10 fifty cents on the dollar.
8. The States of Ohio, New York,
Pennsy wanna anu TACT,
we believe all the States repudiated
their agreement with their creditors
To pay the interest on their public
debt in gold. Instead of doing so they
paid ia greatly deprecated paper
winch was not worth more than bal
AS mueh-as they had promised.
T., Before the war Mississippi repu-
diated a large portion of her state
debt, and for some years PennsylvR
ns4 and Indiana, If NOT other states
neglected 10 pay the Interest ON theil
Indebtedness.
