interest bearing debt. I believe that ev-
cry possible outstanding claim against
the State, valid or invalid, now rated as
sure of payment by the State or other
wise, will be first deprecated, and whilst
SO deprecated, skillfully bought up and
DO by subsequent jndicious legislation re-
cognized and provided for either through
the funding operation or otherwise, and
that the reduction on one side will lie
followed by an increase on the other. In
other words, believe that at the end of
twenty-five years we will not only find
constitutional bonds outstanding to the
utmost limit of the funding law, bnt l
believe there will be an additional i'm
mense interest bearing debt which by
that time will have been acknowledged
and provided for as to interest, but moi as
to capital, and that in those twenty-five
years vast amount of interest will have
been paid out unnecessarily, improperly
and illegally.
Into whose hands those interest bearing
bonds will be found, time will Develop
Az the end of twenty-five years there
will be the same claim of the poverty of
Louisiana and the same claim on it's be-
half for the continued existence of the
lotttry. So far as a claim for the neces-
sity of the present measure is sought to
be predicated upon the assumed condi-
ton of the poverty of Louisiana, /, as it's
Governor, pronounce it totally without
justification or warrant. Some other mo-
tive for this measure must be found than
that her people are unable honorably to
carry ont the duties of Statehood. Know
ing this measure as do, as one dishonor-
ing aud degrading to Louisiana, it has
met, lis it will continue to meet, my most
determined opposition. At no time, and
under no circumstances. will permit one
of my hands to aid in disregailing what
the other was lost in seeking, to uphold
the honor of my native State. We're to
affix my signature to the bill wonld in
deed be ashamed to lot my left hand
know what my right hand had done. l
place the honor OF the State above mon
ey. and in expressing that sentiment,
sincerely voice that of thousands of brave
and true men, of good add devout women
of the State.
Very respectfully,
