The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1893-12-06

Bonded towns, townships, counties,
states and the United States, must be
held for the payment OF fortified bonds,
as a mortgaged farm is held when the
debt is not otherwise paid "Do you pre-
tend to say that our individual property
will be taken away from US to pay county
and state debts because there il not
enough gold to pay them" enquiries an
anxious reader. That is in substance ex-
sctly what I am trying to say, but the
above phraseology makes it sound 30
loud. will state it in another form.
Taxes will be- levied to raise money to
pay interest and principal of these
bonded debts. All property subject to
taxation is liable to sell for delinquent
tax. When it fails to sell, the holder Of
claim may take it to satisfy the debt
due him by tax title.
Bondholders like mortgage owners are
liable to manage so they can take in the
encumbered property at reduced value.
This is evidently the design of capitalists
at this time, and il the people provide
for themselves no other or better way for
the payment of our bonded debts than
what we now have, whole counties and
states are liable to pass into the hands
Of some foreign owner, and the privilege
will then be given us to either accept
such conditions as exist in India and
Ireland, or step down and out. want
to ask the substantial oitizsns Of our
county and state, who began on raw sod
and have worked hard and lived hard
to keep their homes clear of mortgage,
are you prepared to see it pass into the
hands Of foreign aristocrst and you in
your old age be forced to begin a new
home or die tenantsP II not, then wake
up to realization Of your danger and
be not deceived and misled by men who
are working directly against your own
best interests and disregsrding your
rights. But, says one, "can the loyalty
OF union soldier be doubted?" an
swer yes, and l Rm here to stay by the
position / take. The doctrine Of "once
in grace, always in grace" does not hold
good in every case. Satan was once an
angel Of light. Judas was q chosen dis
cipls before he sold out, and Benedict
Arnold fought heroicslly in the battles
Of his country before he sold his army
for English gold. "There is no telling
what effect q few English guineas will
have on q mans mind"
Any man found allied to English lords,
working with Grover Cleveland or any
other English subject, to benefit Eng
lishmen at the expense Of Americans by
down our constitutional right
to snake gold and silver coin a tender
for the payment of debt" should be dis
trusted and looked upon as purchased
Deeds Of thirty years ago
do not correct present mistakes.
Now I submit the case; not to the
judgment Of raw recruits or camp fol-
lowers, but if their be yet few faithful
ones who helped to found the republi-
can party on the principles Of human
rights and American freedom, and who
by the help of God and the use Of Shsrp's
rifles drove shareholders and bushwhack-
ers across the Missouri river and made

Southern Pacific Grant.
WASHINGTON CITY, March A-6ecrstary Hoke
Smith today rendered his first land decision. It
was the case OF the Southern Pacific railroad.
and involved the question OF the right OF that
company to lands within its granted limits and
the limits of q grant 10 the Atlantic & Pacific
railroad, the former basing its claim on the
ground that the latter company had never COM
piled with the requirements OF its grant in the
matter of locating its road and had therefore
forfeited its grant. The secretary holds. how
ever. that the Southern Pacific company had ac-
quired no title to the lands in question under
Its grant This decision operates to open these
lands, aggregating many thousands of acres in
Southern California, to settlement and entry.
The commissioner of the general land ONCE Is
accordingly directed to take the steps necessary
to restore them to the public domain.
