We know not that the Dispatch i well
posted in aspect 10 the sentiment OF country
people, existing a it does In the great
southern olis-Richmond-and con-
sequently not mingling With country pep
sle i'm general; but we, away out here IN

know whereof we speak when we say, let
the candidates be Republican or Democrat,
il they favor downright reputation OF the
State debt they will be elected with over
Nhelming maiorities by the popular vote
OF the Ninth congressional district. But II
is a recent change in sentiment on the part
Of the Democrats. They say-and, no
doubt, truthiully-that they have been loya
10 the party and TO the state; that they
have paid. so far as they could, taxes in
money; that their political opponents, not
bound by fidelity to party, have claimed
The privilege, and no doubt exercised the
right, to pay their taxes 10 coupons, there.
by strengthening the claims OF the
bOndholdcrs, and slowly but sure
" lesscping the chances Of the
State authorities to meet the demands on
the treasury. and thst increased taxation,
at no remote period, is mcvitible-that they
are bound, by the love they bear 10 their
families. to carefully protect and defend
them against coming calamities, and that
increased taxation win fall alike on all-On

State insolvency will come IN one form or
the other-by increased taxation. which
Will bankrupt the people, or by direct re-
pudiaiiOn, almost equally depressing; but
they believe the latter to be preferable.
II is no use 10 longer disguise the fact
that If the bondholders, through attorneys,
perseyere in their demands OF payment,
Ibe people Of the State, knowing the ina
billy OF the state Treasury TO pay, will
raise up in their might and majesty and
say, "Thus far hast thou gone, but thou

An Examination.

II our good friend Of the LyDchburg Ad-
rance will read again what we said the
other day on the subject Of the state debt
he win find that he has missed the point
we undertook to make. Here Is what we
SAID:
"Another point: We hold thai in con-
sidering the ability OF State TO pay por-
lion Of her debt, and trying TO ascertain
how much she Is able 10 pay, II is not only
legitimate, but demanded by proper re-
gard for her inter, SITS. that the question
shall be considered rs TO what Is to become
OF the money TO be paid out for interest
aid principal. For il Il absolutely certain
that Virginia could, without irremediable
injury 10 hers II, pay out twice as much TO
her own people as sue could, without rum
ing herself, pay out to foreign creditors.
The Nation OF last week makes subst9u-
tally this point IN discussing the Irish pro-
blem, declaring that II the moneys collected
In Scotland and Ireland were expended IN
Edinburgh and Dublin instead OF In Lon
don, conditions Of that problem would be
changed"
We never dreamed Of teaching that we
have right to require the creditors 10
"account to us as to what becomes OF the
money! We said exactly what We meant
namely, that In trying 10 ascertain lou
much zee are able 10 pay, we must recoiiec'
that our ability to pay money TO be carried
out Of Tie State Is by no means equal 10 oul
ability to pay money TO persons residing II
the state.s Virginia now pays per cent
every year on more than $4,000 oi be-
bonds held by Virginia schools, colleges
&c. She loses as body polite not on
dime by 80 doing. She could pay intercs
on debt Of twenty millions due TO he
own ci.izens-nay, she could pay debt o
thirty millions TO them-beiter than SIN
could pay debt Of twenty millions to per
sons who would take all the money TO Eu
rope. We, too, say "pay to the best o
our capacity" but In considering this ca
pacity, we say that We mus. ask whether
the State Is TO be drained Of whatever me
ney we pay, or Is il TO remain, here to en
rich our own peoplei
In no other way can we ascertain our
real ability TO pay.

Southern Progress.

The New York Times, in aIecent tinan-
cial article, stated that a thousand million
Of dollars had been added to the wealth oil
the twelve southern States within six years.
The Savannah Ne,cs, In commenting on
that statement, says:
cit viii not appear unreasonable to
those who have carefully watched the de.
yelopment OF the South's resources and
the steady growth Of southern industries.
In energy ard thrift the southern people
| will now compare quite fsvorably with
those OF any other section, and their capacity
| for business was never inferior.
! 1.-THE resources OF the south are scarcely
touched"
True. And capital is pouring into tn,
South every day. What nonsense it is 70,
southern young men TO talk Of smigrsting
TO the West and growing up with the coun
try. No section Of the country is building
up as fast as is the South. Indeed, the Times
in the article referred TO above, fully sus
tains tins view. In touching up the Stock
Exchange dealings it says:
"The West gives way to the South
Dixie is becoming king In Wall street
Only casual glance over the daily dealing:
OF the Stock Exchange y needed to sho =
how true this is; southern securities make
up the big figures that show total transac
tons. There are many reasons for the
change. The South is more prosperous
than sny other section OF the country to-
day."
And sgain:
"Notbing TO be compared to this has
ever happened In the land before. A kin
dIed advance has been seen In one or two
quickly-growiug western States Kansas is
an instsnce-but no group Of States can in
any wise approach the record"

Harvard and VIRGINIA Colleoes

A late issue OF the Boston Herald deyotes
considerable space To certain pranks the
Harvard students are wont 10 indulge IN.
The article Is very amusing, but contains
one statement which We commend TO the
serious consideration Of that class Of pa
rents In Virginia who would vaunt north.
ern colleges at the expense Of our own In.
stitutions Of learning. In referring to the
Harvard swells the article says:
"There IL young Fitz. Faneuil, for in.

Who Shall Rulc-Ths BOndhelders or
the People?
buckingham Register

As we have stated in our paper In an
ether column to-day, a banker OF Rich.
mond, hired by the English bondholders,
arrived IN Harrisonburg last week aud es-
tabished an agency here for the sale OF
coupons, In the hope that many OF our peo-
ple might be induced TO buy them to be
used In the payment Of their State taxes:
The agents and allies OF these Shylocks and
par er.shayers have been using every posi-
bic fort to induce our people to buy these
coupons from them. They have flooded The
country with circulars, In which they try
TO show the taxpayers that they can save
iiiiy cents on the dollar by buying coupons
and using them instead OF paying the
money, but we are glad and proud to say
that up to the time OF this writing Tues
day morning) not single coupon has been
rendered by taxpayer OF Rockingham.
Not only have no coupons been rendered
but many OF the largest prOperty-owners OF
Rockingham have already paid their taxes
IN money, among them Isaac Wenger, who
paid over $500; DR.. A. NJ. Newman, over
$500; Dr. Newman owns State bonds win
coupons attached, but refused to use them);
Charles s. Wunder. OF Moore's Store, Shen-
andoah county, who also owns bonds and
who Is also heavy taxpayer, paid III
money: T. X. and j. s. Harnsberger, who
pay over 5000 taxes, also paid in money;
A. CARRIER, over 5000; David Driver, $50;
W. 4. Carpenter e. son, over 5000; Henry
Schacklett, over $500; j. E. Doyel, $50;
William Reberd, over 5000, and host OF
others. aggregatlng nearly 100000, have
cone likewise, and we feel confident Rock
ingham people will not allow themselves to
be fooled into a trap by these bondholders
or their agents again. We are also proud
TO say that both our banks, the FIRST Ma
tionsl and Rockingham, refused to receive
these coupons on deposit, and they will
have TO find other hands in which to leave
them in order that they may be peddled out
TO our people.
Treasurer Reherd positively refuses to
receive coupons, and any man who tenders
them will not be able TO get his tax tickets.
but will place himself IN a position IN
which his property may be levied on and
sold at any time. A good and careful busi-
ness.man does not care to place himself in
such a predcament in order that the Eug-
lish bondhOlders may realize on their eou-
pons. They prefer TO pay their taxes in
money, like men, get their tickets, and thus
avoid the possibility OF future trouble,
The fight is upon us, and we shall soon see
who will be the Nirginians or
foreign bon1hOlders,

How AbOut Ia?

We always ike to agree with our friend
the Richmond Dispatch, and seldom fail TO
do so. And we do now fully agree with
what II has to say in regard to The late re-
ported proposition of the bondholders
made by Them against Mr.. Royal for 4 new
adjustment Of the debt question, which is
rs follows
LET us have no more vague and indetl-
mite offers. Let us know whether the bond.
holders intend TO fight for the payment OF
the entire debt and a rate OF interest Of 4
per cent, or whether they are willing 10
settle at 3 per cent. and to abandon sixth
part of their claim for prlucipaIs
"Let us have the new proposition IN
figures, we repeat. General statement.
won't do; for the moment the State sur.
renders and agrees TO take coupons for
taxes, the creditors holding taX-receiyabe
coupon bonds viii have her in their power
aud at their mercy. They would need NJ
new settlement. Their coupons would run
up almost to par. Virginia cannot afford
to enter into negotiations ii she Is thus to
be bound hand and foot"
All of this is u bright rs q new pin and
rs sound as bottom dollar, and we fully
agree with our contemporary. II the bond.

late any compromlse until the state has for

disclosing our willingness 10 consent to a
compromise based upon principle which
we have defined, and We must secure the
abortion OF this principle a. a basis Tor
settlement by the State before we consent to
discuss details. The game OF the politicians

tlement which IS embodied in our resolu-
tion is too vague, and to induce us, II pos.
.,bie, TO define the terms. II the committee
ever falls into this trap am satisfied that,
having got our position before them. they
would ridicue it and misrepresent its true
character In every way possible
This entirely concurs with my own opin-
ion. Until there has been a full discussion

TO represent each side this l. surely as TAR
n we can 90 at the present stage OF tue
ease. All that we can possibly do Is to
enurciate a principle as the basis OF

The agents OF the bondholders in this
place, in their eagerness 10 induce our tax
payers to buy coupons in order that they

are declaring that in Richmond and else
where all the large property.owners are
b,Iyiae them In order TO use then in pay
Ing their taxes.
Are you for Virginia, or are you for the
English .bondholders? This question must
be decided by every property-owner when
be pays his taxes. II he paws In money he
is for Virginia; II he buys coupons he is
for fhp boudhoiders
