Wing.
What does the Wing want; to open a
market in the interest of the bondholders,
for unfunded bonds, and close the market
against Riddleberger bonds? The policy
of the Republican U. s. Judges in Virgin
ia runs in that direction, but we hardly
suspected our contemporary of being in the
same line. The Democracy have no de-
fence to make for making a market for
Riddleberger bonds; it is its pledged poll
cy to uphold the Riddleberger bill and to
encourage funding in the bonds issued
under it, and in pursuance of that it buys
over million dollars of them a year.
The Republican q. S. Judges and the
clerks Of their courts have established a
market for the bondholders' unfunded
bonds; the Democracy is ON the other
track-it is giving the Riddleberger bonds
market value and paying the debt
cheaply at the same time. It don't in
tend to buy any tax coupons, come from
where they will.
