AROUT THE COMMITTEE ON cow
PROMISE.


In the humble Judgment Of ye
humble editor, our Honorable Coun-
tv Board would have done better to
have passed tie resolution Of Mr.
Reese, Ito be found in the report OF
proceedings published in this paper,)
appointing Messrs. Joseph Gundry,
Samuel IIoskins and G.. c. Meigs Il
committee to wait upon the holders
OF the Iowa county bonds, with a
view to settlement or compromise.
As will be seen by the report OF
proceedings, the Board allowed
about 81, $4,000 at the late session,
TO attorneys for recent services and
expenses in prosecuting the Bond
Suits; much smaller sum than that
would have served TO pay the ex-
pensc of the proposed committee,
and certainly there is. room to pre-
sumo that the benefits derived from
such expense might be proportion
atcIy rs great as the benefits re-
cciyea from tho expense Of six
months litigation.
The gentlemen proposed for the
committee are ones i'll whom the
people have confidence; and areport
from them, after seeing tho bond
holders, wonld have been regarded
as fual rs TO our chances for settle
mcut or compromise; and been a
great source Of satisfaction, well
worth the cost, even though it
led to nothing more We fully be
!icyc that a majority OF the people
would bo willing to compromise
with the bond holders it they could
do so, rather than continue in. un-
satisfactory litigation. Had the
proposed committee been raised,
they could have waited on the bond
holders and told them plainly that
''the people Of Iowa. county are a
unit in the determination not to pay
your demand in fnll until compelled
to do, SO, after every possible means
of avoiding it has failded; but,
rather than continue litigation, we
are willing To compromise it you
(the bond hollcrs) will make sui,
ticcnt concessions to Justify us. in
doing so; and the people therefore
desire to know what concession, if
any, you are willing to make"
by this coarse the committee
would ascertain what kind OF, a
compromise could be hoped for, and
report the same 10 the people;
when, if the proposal should be
found acceptable, the county at
torucys, or other legal gentlemen,
could be empowered to draw up
the documents, and put the terms OF
compromise in proper form for final
execution. II, on the contrary, the
committee should find the bond
holders 10 be uurcasouablo--un-
willing TO offer any terms al com
promise, or none that the people
could accept,--thcn We could CON.
tiuUc the litigation the same us now,
and be ont OF pocket ouly the cN-
pvuscs and per. diem of the com,
ruittee, which we would checuuIly
pay, aud deem the money woll spout,
Tor the knowledge that u tair com
promise cannot be effected.
1t may be that the Board has
information % convince them that
we cannot orneed not do anything
toward lifting ourselves ont Of our
d thculueS, and refused TO pass
Mr.. RccSc'S resolution because
they knew the proposed committee
could accomplish nothing, II such
be the case they would confer 4
favor upon their constituents by en-,
lightning them also.
