The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1877-12-28


We need only point the reader to the a az!
mirablc remarks Of the Governor M MS
message on the public debt. we iuiiy
concur with them on ll~essentlal, points.
Nothing but mischief can come Oh aela! OF
of any attempt to evade the provisions OF
the funding bill; and we fear that mtschle!
10 nrecisely what il designed by some OF
the leading "resdjusters." They propose
to directly assail the interests OF their espe-
ciaI net and protegk, the taxpayer, by pre-.
venting any and everything in the shape OF
rctrenchment. They do not wish the state
to show herself. BY reduction OF iegisia-
tive, court, and other expenses, able TO pay
the small margin of annul interest yet un-
proyided for. In this they will prove them
selves false to their trust and their oath.
We shall watch closely the drift OF things
at Richmond Winchester Times.
I,I11pUTJAy.-Mr. Frazier, tire lndepend-
ent member from Rockbridge. who defeated
IS honest !" John Letcher, is out in !. circular
letter enclosing and criticising the message
| OF Governor Kempcr. Mr.. Frazier charges
that the message "bears the imprint OF Wal!
street from it's inception to its close" and
| that the Governor "seems to be looking
only to the interest OF the Wall-straet
brokers, and not the people,"
When Mr.. Frazier undertakes to cast
sucb aspersions as these ON James L. Ken
per, he Injuries not Kempcr but himself.
There was once man who set fire to the
| Temple OF Diana at Ephesus in order to
render his name immortal. He succeeded.
Mr.. Frazier may be remembered for this
| letter, but. we doubt If the Renaissance
will be grateful to him in coming years.
The people of Virginia knew James h.
| Kcmpcr before the war, they knew him
durinq the aoar, they have known him since
the war, and the less Mr.. Frazier has to say
against Governor Kemper the better for
Frazier. Vnginidn.

Of taxes. including duties OF imports and Inter-
eat on the public debt. II grccnbaeks were re-,
