recapitulating triefly the history of the public debt after fter the revolutionary war of 1812 and he mexican war he says the debt in february 1666 1866 was and that the expenditures during the last jast three years have been respectively ne 0 and he proceeds to say that the startling facts thus concisely stated suggested the inquiry as to the cause of this tn nerease crease in the expenditures and in debt edness of the country during the civil war the maintenance of the fede pede ral government was the one great purpose which animated our people and that economy should always characterize our financial operations was overlooked in the great effort of the nation to preserve its existence many abuses which had bad their origin in the war continued to exist ion lon long iong after it had been brought to a close the tee people having become accustomed to the lavish deture of public money for an object so dear to them as the preservation of the integrity of their free institutions have patiently borne taxation of the most oppressive character and have allowed large sums of money to be extorted from them which have been squandered in ti seless useless extravagance enormous expenses are demanded for a purpose the accomplishment of which requires a large standing army namely the perversion of the constitution and and the subjugation of ape the states to negro domination with a military establishment costing in time of peace not less than a hundred millions annually and a debt the interest of which draws one hundred and fifty millions annually making a total of awo hundred and fifty millions in these two items of the public expenditures retrenchment has become an absolute necessity or bankruptcy will soon overtake us and involve the country in paralyzing results if however a wise economy be adopted the taxes may soon be materially reduced not merely for the benefit of a few but in the interest of all and the revenue would remain sufficient for the administration of government the as also for such a reduction of the public debt as would ii in a few years relieve the people from millions of iL interest terest now a annually drawn from them the idea that the debt is to become permanent should be discountenanced as involving taxation too heavy to be born i and the payment of an amount of interest every fifteen years equal to the original sum the gradual liquidation of the public debt would by degrees release a large amount of capital invested in the securities of the government which seeking remuneration in other sources the income resulting would add add much to the wealth of the nation upon which it is now a great drain this immense debt if permitted to become permanent and ana necessary must evidently be gathered into ithe the hands of a few which would enable them to exert a dangerous and controlling cont roling power in the affairs orthe of the govern government men ta as debtors would then become servants of the leaders and creditors would be the masters of the people the letter concludes by declaring that the vital issue is whether congress and arbitrary assumptions of authority shall supersede the supreme law of the land or whether I 1 in a time of peace the country shall be controlled oled by a multitude of tax collectors and a standing army the one as numerous as the other thus making the debt a permanent burden upon the productive industry of the people whether the constitution with each and all its guarantees shall be sacredly preserved and whether now abi abl in 1789 and 1816 provisions shall be made for the payment of our obligations at as early early a period as practicable that the tho fruits of their labor may be enjoyed by our cl citizens t 1 rather than used to build up and sustain a money monopoly at home and abroad the contest is not merely who shall occupy the principal offices in the peoples gift but whether the high be bests of the federal constitution shall be observed and maintained in
