eral condition of the country. Every
class of people must make their
expenditures dependent upon their
receipts. for the law Of trade, as
memorable as that of the Modes and
Persians, will prevail. Prices of com-
modities and the wages of labor will
continue to be, as they have been for
ages, governed by the law of supply
and demand.
Legislation may correct abuses and
prohibit apolicy which jeopardises the
interests of the people, but when it
attempts to regulate trade by enforcing
principles in opposition to the great
natural laws of trade. it becomesmis :
chieycus and Injuries the class which it
seeks to benefit. The effect of the
strike has been to expose the weak
points both in railroad management
and the general habits of our people.
An element composed of the lawless
and the vicious, class of society
found principally among the idlers IN
our large cities, has caused its power
for evil to be felt and has demonstrated
the necessity of provision to meet and
crush out this class of outlaws. They
are sympathizers with the strikers only
so far as this sympathy secures for
them the opportunity to rob and
plumber. The sooner they are taught
that the rights of private property will
be fully protected the better will be
their condition and that of the COM
munities in which they live.

Col. Holidays Real Views.

Since our editorial Oh the public debt
was put in type we have been furnished
with the following from Col. Holiday.
WINCHESTER, July "a, 1877.
J. 3. WEBB, NJ. D..
EUGENE WEST, ESQ.,.
Rockingham County, Virginia /:
Dear Siirs-Y ours Of the 23rd instant.
Just received.
1 have never concealed my views on
the State Debt. Whenever called upon,
they have been given to gentlemen in
different parts of the Commonwealth.
1 have chosen my own time and con-
venience to make them public, conceiv-
ing that is an issue in no way involv-
ed in this canvass: belonging properly
to the Legislature, not to the Execu-
tive.
I shall now, however, answer your
inquiries, and I cannot do so better,
than by quoting from letter written as
far back as 18th Of April 1877, and be-
fore this issue was sprung, to gentle
man living in Augusta County.
''As to the State Debt, 1 am opposed
to reputation. I wouldnot have such
stigma cast upon my State any more
than 1 would upon my private fame.
But whilst 1 am thus opposed to repu-
diation, for the same general reason, 1
am in favor of some speedy settlement
of the Debt, honorable to our State and
satisfactory to the creditors.
This is important and pressingly SO !:
because the debt is increasing by reason
of interest, and because 1 believe, so
soon as we indicate a willingness and
ability to pay the interest promptly, our
Bonds will at once go to par and Capt.
tai and population flow into our Dor
ders and never till then. Neither Is
coming to Bankrupt or dishonest
Commonwealth.
And for the same general reason, l
of course, do not wish any more than
anyone else, heavy taxes ; for they,
too, prevent the advent of capital and
labor to our midst. And whilst am,
as the Constitution requires, IN favor OF
uniform rate, am in favor of seeking
new subjects, instead Of heaping bur-
dens UPON the landed interest, out Of

CITY OFFICIAL RIOTING.-In Pitts
burg it has been found that council
man, two aldermen and lieutenant of
police were among the rioters the
other day, .actively engaged in urging
the mob to violence. Commenting on
this the Philadelphia Bulletin says
possibly when the decent citizens of
Pittsburg are taxed for payment of the
Pennsylvania railroads bill of damages
they may consider it worth while to
turn out and elect other people than
the specimens mentioned to manage
their public affairs.

which, at last all our wealth and pros
perity must grow.
We all have hope that this will be
done. The State has improved much
considering her many trials, done Won
ders since the war and a bright future
IS before us, if we are true to ourselves
and to her.
But the road to prosperity is not
through the door of Repudiation- that
is the road to her doom. And l would
not beckon her in that direction for all
the honor any office she may have, can
confer. Indeed, what would the office
be worth, when won 1t would be a
''barren sceptre" if not a disgraceful
prize"
so wrote on 10Th April last. l have
so written in different language fire.
quently since: 1 so think now, render
ed firmer in my convictions by recent
eyents-that are casting the deepest
shadows that have ever yet fallen upon
our free Institutions. And when we
weigh the honor and ability of Virginia,
and consider the high reputation for
integrity which she has always borne
through evil and good report, in adver-
sity and prosperity, l have great hope OF
settlement, which will not impinge
upon that fame and be perfectly salts
factory to her creditors.
Whatever is done, ought to be done
speedily. This constant clamor is I'M
settling business and throwing impede
ments in the way of the States pros
perity.
Ihave not sought the high office of
Governor with. at this time, its tremen-
dous responsibilities. Ny friends have
done me great honor by thinking me
worthy oft.
But If the people Of Virginia are NOW
resolved to go back upon a renown
hitherto untarnished, by the reputation
of her plighted faith, they must find
some other than myself to do their
bidding.
Yours, very Respectfully,
FRED. w. NJ. HOLIDAY.
