The Debt Report.

The most interesting Of the reports made
TO the Legislature at the present session
Is that made by the West Virginia Com
mlssioners, touching this States liabtuty
for q portion Of the Virginia debt, and
printed in this paper. Its length ought
not to deter any citizen Of the State from
reading It through. The excoriation Of
Gov. WALKER Is artlstically and exquis'
itely neat and keen. There will be some
squirming at Richmond when this docu.
ment gets over there.
The case made out by the Commission
ers for an adjustment Of the debt between
the two States on principles Of equity in
stead of a settlement in the arbitrary mode
proposed by Virginia, is very clear and
strong. We do not believe 1t can be sue
cessfully answered. The result they reach,
viz: that Of the original debt West Vir'
ginia Is equitably bound to Virginia for
only about million, will be gratifying to
our people.
OF course this report is er parte and set
ties nothing. But as clear and able
presentment Of the case from West Vir'
ginia's stand point, It will do something
to convince Virginians that they will have
TO lower their tone and modify their de-
mands very materially before any com
mon ground can be found for basis o.
settlement.
1t is not likely that any action in this
matter will be taken by the Legislature OIL
this State at the present session. The
Virginia Legislature has recently suspcn.
ded the funding Of the debt and placed the
whole subject in the hands of a commls'
sion for the calculation, II possible, Of
some way out Of the wilderness. After
this commission reports Virginia may
have something new to propose, but for
the present there appears to be nothing
for the West Virginia authorities TO dc
but to await forward movement at Rich
mond.
This report Is accompanied by n num-
Der Of tables, which arc interesting buI
not essential to an understanding Of The
document by the general readOr.
