"The bill adjusting: the: State. debt has jsaedrthettrird reading amid applause. vybte:WW4aL' I ii This means the third reading in the House, the bill having 1 previously passed the Senate by a vote of 25 to 14, and it means that the bill is now a law. This is glad tidings of great joy, and if this General Assembly has done nothing else, and does nothing else, this One act should entitle it to; the ever lasting remembrance. 4JjWUtoi of the people It has shown that it is tired of pettifog ging, and that it has the nerfe to tak$ JkoVrpf yt yjt question and disposer The importance of this action justdgtgg taken, cannot by any means be over- 'estimated. It means that our people liave made up their minds ti pay their honest debts. IL means VvYA the highway lanositioil iiMlewe may look the world squarely in the face. It means that public honesty in rttyCtrqlina does not exist in nanfeA hi. i The recognized bonded debt of the State is about $27,000,000;; this bill proposes to settle with about $8,600,000, in 5 per cent? bdftds,Ttt run forty years. .-! Will the bondholders accept the tophs - of the compromise? We believe they will. Are the people in favor of an adjustment of que , indebtedness ? Un- doubtedlv thev are. If both of theso propositions are correct, nothing stands iniitbe w of ?ancfnHur aw counts with the outside world. ! When this debt is paid our people will be relieved of a burden which thev have found most srrievous to be borne. As long , as it is upon us unad justed it is a mortgage upon every dollar's worth of property in the State; Jt is an intolerable incubus upon, 'every industry; it keeps capital from our borders -and .gives us an ill natne among the sisterhood of States. 1 But why multiply arguments in faVor : oflts adjustm0ntfAll .the jemuad has been goal eler betoW and bfcedl not be eone over again. We have no more space at hand now than is necessary to congratulate j the )Geneiali Assembly upon 'this most excellent May's work and give it the plaudit, "well done." i , . With this we append the text of the Mllaa'oAglAally! Introduced. In the Senate the first section was amended : by excluding the bonds issued for the construction of the North Carolina Railroad so that the section prescribes as the first class of bonds proposed to be commuted at 40 per cent, all bonds iumiMl nrtnr to IRfil. ex rent those known X 7 - , j ai construction bonds of the North Car lina Road, 'and the fourth section was amended by providing that all bonds exchanged for the new bonds shall be 'arrendeTed iOrUWtfri; i&u?ibns at ' tached. i ; L .WftsuDDose that the House concurred 1 nil the Senaamendaieiu3,ndiwilliout adopting an j of its own passed the bill J in the reading of which these amend ments should be borne in mind. The following, then,- arothe terms , which -w hold out to the bondholders, i Tbey will accept them, knowing that another offer will not be made them, i The bill is, as previously stated, the pro- duct' of the joint select committee on. j State debt Hito ntM Is Ma bill to be enti- 1 tied an act to compromise and adjust a : portion of the State debt,' and to pro- : vide for the payment thereof, and the , reading of the original draft is as ! fol lows: &a9 TO 9enetal ArtiblyLa$North Caro lina do enact, Section l.
