The Manstrous Proposition That the

total of near 81 $50. zoo to be taken from the
people before singleeurrent expense Is paid.
In discussing what shall be- done about the
public debt, this fact should always be kept
In view.
The first question then is, can the interest
on the DEBT, as at present constituted, be paid
and the officers OF the State be paid at the
same time Al agree that it is utterly inn
possible. we nave fallen behind on the in
terest already near Sl,000,000 The bonds of
the State are quoted Mt go cents on the dollar,
and if we persist in trying to paw them all at

not legitimate; it is a hastardrno onas

The STATE indebtedness must be inquired
into Bonds issued during the adminstra-
tions Of Warmotb and Kellogg should be
rigidly investigated, and every bond issued,
which was not given for the honest and legiti-
mate purposes of government and benefit OF
the people should be repudiated. The cry
that such bonds have gone into the hands Of
honest third parties won't do. The outside
world was notified by the people Of Louisiana

of her government and so soon as they. got
into power they would investigate and refuse
