Facts Of History.

There are some facts OF history and
a few legal points connected with this
subject which the Orange man seems
to be grossly ignorant Of. In the first
place, he ought to know that he cannot
IN any manner connect the credit of
the city OF Wheeling with an issue be-
tween the West Virginia state gov
ernment and the government and credi-
tors Of the state Of Old Virginia, grow
ing out OF the division OF the state dur
ing the civil war. It cannot by any
manner or reason affect the past.
present or future credit of the city Of
Wheeling.
The writer Of the Orange letter is
not familiar with the history of the
so-called West Virginia certificates, or
he would not say that this state has
repudiated q state debt. nor that the
United States has brought suit against
this state to collect a debt OF thirty
I'VE years. sanding. for such is not
the case, though there has been some
such talk on the part OF Old Virginia.
The writer Of the letter Is not familiar
With the congressional act admitting
West Virginia into the Union in 1858.
when he says the payment Of these
certificates was conditional.
Again, 1t may be said that there is
some history concerning this act of
Congress, and It has a legal bearing on
the liability Of West Virginia to pay
certificates Issued arbitrarily by West
virginia long since the war, without
the knowledge or consent OF this state.
It may be said here Virginia gave
these certificates allotIng West Virginia
one-thIrd Of the total debt to It's credit
ors, and West Virginia never knew a
thing about It until the holders came
along and demanded payment.
A Statesman on the Subject.
No better history of the act Of Con-
Eress in this matter can be found than
in the book written by the late James
G. Blaine, Twenty Years In Con-
gress. In which he reviews the matter
from tho standpoint OF one who purtIc-
lpated in the legislation. He devotes
an entire chapter to It. It is best to
quote some OF It. In describing the
act admitting west Virginia to the
Union in 1853, Mr.. Blaine says, among
other things:
Another consideration is OF great
weight. An innocent third party was
involved. Virginia owed a large debt,
held In good part by loyal citizens Of
the north and by subjects Of foreign
countries. The United States might
well have relieved Virginia, and have
done justice TO her creditors by making
some allowance by division Of her ter
rItory. Regarding her only as enti-
tied to tho rights OF a public enemy
80 long as she wRrred upon the Union,
we may confidently maintain that she
is entitled to us Just and magnanlmous
treatment as the national government
extends to foreign foe.'
Mr.. Blaine here cites the case OF
Mexico, in which war 1t became our In
terest to acquire a large part OF the
territory owned by that republic. But
In Justice we negotiated for the terri
tory needed and paid for It large price.
Many Of our citizens held large claims
against Mexico, and the government, in
addition to the money consideration OF
$4,000, 900 paid for territory, exonerated
Mexico from all demands Of our citi-

Incident to the Intelligencer's pub
locations In July, concerning the re-
Funding Of the city indebtedness on the
line marked out by City Receiver A. H.
Forgey, 1t will be recalled by readers
that a letter was published written by
Mr.. Forgey to Messrs. Kleybothe, Of
Cincinnati. concerning the financial
credit Of the city Of Wheeling. This
letter appeared on the 22d of July. A
week or ten days following, Receiver
Forgey received a letter from Orange.
New Jersey, impeachIpg the credit Of
the city Of Wheeling, on the ground that
West Virginia has not yet settled its
ante-war debt, the so-calIed West
Virginia certificates.
The absurdity of such a point Is at
once apparent. The letter shows the
writer's ignorance OF the whole ques-
ton. He is probably holder Of some
of those unauthorized certificates. He
Is not an attorney, or he would never
have made the assertion that the ma
tional government has brought suit
agalst this state for the payment, The
letter reads Environments thereafter:
ORANGE, N. j., July "a. 1899.
Mr. A. H. Forgey:
Dear sir:-After reading your letter
to Messrs. Kleybothe & Co., In the Daily
Intelllgencer OF July e, In which you
strongly champion the cause Of Wheel
ing'B financial rectitude. am led to
believe that you have many sympathiE-
erS In your Views, and am embOldened
to ask why, II any, your people feel 30
strongly and resent so quickly any In
situation against the financial integrity
Of a city in your state, they should re-
main passive under the obloquy OF a
repudiated state debt-the payment OF
which was a condition Of the admission
Of your state into the Union? Why.
the United States has been compelled
to bring suit against the state OF West
virginia to collect debt OF thirty-eight
years standing, and which debt, under
Article Will. section 8. OF the states
constitution, should have been paid,
principal and Interest, within thirty
four years after the date Of ratification,
May. 1859.
TO one at distance this suggests the
story Of the Pharisee. II agreeable TO
you, should be pleased to hear some
thing OF the public policy regarding the
situation Of West Vlrginia's deferred
stxea. Yours respectfully,
