Regulated Bonds.

The recent decision Of the Supreme Court o.
the United States which requires North Caro-
lima TO pay some Of her repudiated bonds is a
matter which concerns all the Southern
States, and especially is this true OF South
Carolina. The Spartanbnrg Heard says:
"These old bonds were issued by Radical
and Carpet. Bag administration In the Soutt
and have long since been repudiated. AL
honest debts should be paiG. States are JUS
q little harder to collect from, but these out
rageous bond issues are not honest debts"
We quite agree with the Herald in saying
that honest debts ought to be paid. AS tc
South Cardinals reputation of debts, there
may be difference OF opinion both as to the
act OF the reputation and as to the class o.
debts repudiated.
As we understand the holders of Estate House
bonds, which were issued before the war, were
foroep to AXE fifty cents on the dollar in new
bonds. We never see the Stale House, mol
hear its name mentioned that we do no
think OF the Rev. Mr.. Hankel, who was rector
Of the Episcopal church in this town. He had
bonds OF that Issue, and that old man, when
nearing the grave. was forced by the grand
old State OF South Carolina to compromise
his bonds at fifty cents on the dollar. vii
the Herald contend that onth Carolina acted
hon estly in robbing that old man Of half his
estate?
The Spartanburg and Union railroad bonds
were guaranteed by the State. After ward the
State OF South Carolina issued "bills receiv'
abler for taxes and other dues to the State
The holders Of these bonds were induced to
exchange them for bills receivable"
The State was responsible, TOO, for certain
Blue Ridge Railroad debtss "Blue Ridge
Scrip" was Issued and exchanged for tina,
guarantee,-both Of which guarantees were
made by Democrats before the war.
Everything went lovely until the Blue
Ridge bonds and the S~psrtanburg and Union
bonds were ssfely cancelled. The courts de.
clared that the "bills receivable" and the
"Blue Ridge Scrip were unconstitutional,
and the State was thus relieved of two other
honest debts.
When the Democrats come into power the
State was indebted to various officers. They
were required to take fifty cents for their
claims. Was that an honest deal?
Did not South Carolina act shamefully In
each OF these transactions? Ought not the
chivalric old Palmetto State be made TO pay
her honest debts?
The way old Wesley Of New York was
cheated should bring the blush of shame.
The Press and Banner hopes to see the day
when South Carolina will be required to be
honest.
