,in the history of the

S tate .

T hewan t of such a compilation is fel t by every citizen in the S tate .In v ery many of the S tates of the Union

, such awork is annually

pub lish ed by pub lic patronage, and is much e ste emed as affording a

ready reference to names,dat es and facts

,

and the compilation of so l arge an array of figures, it is to be expectedthat some errorswill occur . M uch l ab o r and pains hav e b e en tak en toguard against them;e rro rs will cre ep in

,howeve r

,and the compile r

will begrateful to any onewhomay de tect them,and communicate the

how ev e r,that should som e e rrors occur

,they will beso small as not to

misl ead the observant reade r,o r impair the usefulness of thewo rk .

In future editions, (as the work is, by law,

to be prepared for eachsucce eding Legisl ature, ) such erro rswill be av oided;and by improv e

m ent in matter and emb ellishmen ts in mode,thiswork more wo rthy of

its distinguished subj ect , and th e pat ronage of its patriotic citiz ens.

FROM ANNUAL RE PORT OF T HE STATE TRE ASUBE R T O T H E G OVE R N OR OFNORTH CAROLINA ,

FOR FISCAL YE A R E ND ING SE PTE MBE R

STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA ,

TRE A S U RY DE PA RT ME N T ,Raleigh

,N OV . 12th ,

1873.

I again call the attention Of th e General Assembly to th e necessity Of makingsome provision in regard to the debt . The statements show in extenso the amountof th e same

,when due and for what purpose issued . It i s seen that the entire

amount,excluding spec ial tax and unconstitutional bonds

,is with

past due interest,say For spec ific information I d istribute th e

same as followsl st . Old or ante—war bonds

,dated prior to the war

,total amount

,

Accrued interest,

Total,

These were sold by the State,or by its agents

,on an average at par for gold .

There i s no charge that their proceeds were not honestly expended,although in

some instances th e investments were unfortunate . For example , the followingenterprises

,for wh ich bond s are Outstanding

,are almost

,if not quite

totalfailures, adding a littl e , if anyth ing, to th e wealth Of the State , V izCape Fear and Deep River NavigationWork s

,

Fayettevill e andWestern Plank Road,

N euse and Tar River Improvements,

Fayettev il l e and Centre Plank Road,

Fayettevil le andWarsaw Plank Road,

Tar River,

Th e following enterprises,for wh ich $4 bonds are Outstand ing

,are not

failures,i. a, they add something to the prosperity Of th e country , but th e interest

Of th e State in them has littl e , if any market valueAtlantic and N orth Carol ina Rail road

,

Albemarle and Che sapeak e Canal,

Western (Coal Fields) Railroad ,Westem North Carolina Railroad

,

Wilmington , Charlotte and Rutherford Railroad , (now CarolinaCentral

,)

140 NORTH CA ROLINA MANUAL.

Th e above companie s have never declared a d ividend . The Wilmington,

Charlotte and Rutherford Railroad Company has gon e out o f the hands Of theState altogether by sal e of all its franch i s e and property .The foll owing investments

,for wh ich bonds now outstanding amount to

have con siderabl e value,v iz

Th e Insane Asylum,

North Carolina Rail road,

Th e bonds is sued for th e North Carol ina Rail road Company are made by thecharter o f the Company a l ien on th e State stock in the Company . The bondholders

,under a decree of th e United States Circuit Court

,in the suit of Swazey

and oth ers vs. the North Carolina Railroad Company and others,are now receiv

ing th e d ividend s and wil l,no doubt

,at l east when the bonds become due , Obtain

the stock itself,if th ey so desire .

2 . Th e second cla ss o f bonds con sists Of those i s sued since the war, but unde ra cts passed before

,as follows

Wilmington,Charlotte Ruth erford Railroad

,

“’ estern North Carolina Railroad,

Total princ ipal,

Thes e bonds were sold for not over about sixty cents in the dollar for currency,

when gold was at a large premium,netting to the company considerably l e ss than

fifty cents in gold .

I have already stated that the interest of the State has been altogether lost intheWilmington

,Charlotte and Rutherford Railroad Company

,and it i s p robabl e

that th e same will soon er or later b e th e case in regard to th e Western NorthCarolina Rail road Company .3 . Th ere is a th ird c las s of bond s i s sued during th e late war, and for thatreason not mark etab l e

,but hav ing been for internal improvement purposes

,

should b e included in a general settl ement Of our debt, vizWilmington

,Charlotte and Ruth erford Railroad Company

,

We stern North Carol ina Railroad Company,We stern Railroad Company

,

8

4. A fourth class of bond s consists of those is sued to take up past due interest,

Under the Fund ing Act Of 1866,

Under the Funding Act of 1868,

Total princ ipal, 8

N early all th e bonds i s sued under th e former act were for old bond s matured,

and for coupons of Old bonds . Tho se is sued under th e Fund ing Act of 1868were for old bond s matured

,all recogniz ed bonds that had b ecome defaced and

mutilated,bonds of th e denomination o f $100 and $200 , coupons of Old bond s

and coupons Of bonds i s sued since the war to th e Wilmington , Charlotte andRutherford Rail road Company

,theWestern North Carolina Railroad Company

,

and under th e Funding Act of 1866. But none were for coupons of Conventionor spec ial tax bonds .



this add th e expense of supporting th e State governmen t and it will b e necessaryto rai se per annum

,or 1 and 3—5 per cent . of th e real and personal prop

erty. Add an amount for county taxation equal to that for State governmentexpenses

,and we have

,outsid e th e towns and c ities, 2 and 1—10 per cent . of our

property . And in many of the c iti e s and towns the l evi es for municipal purposesare as large

,if not larger . Now add , as the holders of special tax bonds propose ,

a tax of or 2;of 1 per cent . on th e property , and we have a grand totalof 2 and 8-10 per cent .It i s manifest that our p eopl e cannot and will not pay such enormous lev ie s .

Any attempt to enforce it would result in total repud iation . E ven if any GeneralAssembly should vote a l evy at present , even omitting spec ial tax bonds , the peopl e would reverse th eir action at th e next el ection . But I am strongly of op inionthat good pol icy require s a speedy ad j u stment of th e publ ic debt . Delay i s dangerons . The interest i s accumulating . The popular mind i s becoming accustomed to th e altemative of repudiation . Our good fame is stigmatiz ed . Our

bond—holders are a class of influential men,and th eir increasing ill-humor and

consequent denunciation Of our State,not only affect th e credit of the c itizens .

but Operate to drive Off immigratibn and capital from our l imits .The re—estab l i shment Of the pub l ic cred it will besides tend to nerve our peop leto greater energy in adh erence to their own contracts . Noth ing so much tend sto impair moral ity in th e c itiz en as the spectacl e of lax ity of principl e in th e commonwealth .

And then th e restoration Of cred it i s es sential to any future negotiations fo rborrowing money . The bonds Of the State

,if allowed to remain outstand ing ,

will be a perpetual reminder of our breach of faith . In all financial c ircl es theywill be exh ibited as proofs that any new ventures in our s ecuritie s will be a s disastrous as th e investments in the repud iated securitie s . If

,however

,we can

compromise the debt,any sacrifice s th e cred itors submit to will b e charged where

th ey j ustly belong,to th e terribl e l os s es of th e war .

I have already stated those losses are demonstrated by th e present condition Ofth e investments entered into by the State . It i s not nece ssary to add to the l istth e enormous destruction of our property by th e war

,th e annih i lation of our sys

tem of labor, th e ruin of our wealth i e st peopl e by the abol ition of slavery , thedeath or d i sabl ing of multitudes of our young men in battl e or by discaseh thesweep ing away of our personal property

,our horses

,our cattl e

,our farming im

plements, th e deterioration of our lands . It i s not necessary to call to mind theeffects on a half ruined peopl e o f the financ ial troubl e s of 1867 and Of the present.year . E very fair-minded man wil l admit that if ever a State can b e j ustified indemanding that creditors should abate part of their demands proportioned tolo sses by causes unforeseen by both parti es at th e time Of the creation of thedebt

,that State i s North Carolina .

It i s said by some that the General Assembly ought to surrend er to the creditorsall the State property ac quired by th e creation of the debt

,and refuse to pay any

more . I have shown that in s everal in stances the inte rest Of theState has beensacrificed . For exampl e

,I state its l i en on the Wilmington

,Charlotte and

Rutherford Railroad Company has been subord inated to another mortgage,by

th e forecl o sure o f wh ich th e road has passed into other hands . Its stock in theWestern North Carol ina Railroad Company i s threatened by foreclo sure of a l ikem ortgage . It would have been lost a year ago if th e General Assembly had not

STATE DE BT . 143

authorized an appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States . The surrende rof interests whose value has been impaired or destroyed by voluntary action ofthe State wil l not hav e any appearance of fairness .In onecase a considerab l e portion of the bonds might be exchanged for stock

Of the State . I mean th e North Carol ina Railroad Company . The holders ofbonds is sued for that company have already Obtained a decre e for sequestrationof the d ividends . It is threatened to app ly to th e court for a further decree tosell the stock to pay defici enc ies of past due interest unpaid . Whether th i s '

be

done or not,certainly at th e maturity of the bond s in 1883

,and ’85

,the bond

holders can claim su ch sale . I respectfully suggest whether it might not be advisab l e to authoriz e the exchange at once . Thi s would reduce the debt muchmore than it would be on a sale of the stock under decre e of th e court .The most feasibl e plan for settling the question of th e public debt i s to au

thorizethe issue of new bonds,with a tax l evied in the act for th e payment Of

the interest, holders of bonds Of the State to be allowed to surrender the sameand receive the new bonds at such rate by way of compromise as might .be prescribed by theGeneral Assembly. I would respectfully suggest that one Of thenew bonds be offered for two of the Old or ante-war bonds and tho se is sued tofund the interest of the same

,of l ik e denominations

,for three of all other bonds

issued since the war,except spec ial tax bond s . As to the latter

,l et a commission

be appointed,whose duty it shall b e to estimate what portion of the proceeds

went into our pub lic works,and report to the General Assemb ly . Then th e As

semb ly can declare val id a part of the spec ial tax bond s proportioned to suchamount realized .

Of course if any cred itor should prefer to d eclin e the propo sal ind icated andtake hi s chances for better terms hereafter

,he could do so . But I am incl ined

to th ink that after a ful l explanation of the poverty of the State,most

,if not all

,

would enter into the arrangement.I earnestly hope some plan will be carried into effect . I greatly fear that longerdelay will result in entire repudiation by inaction at l east. Already such a policyi s advocated by men of influence

,and there i s danger that it wil l become popular .

Prompt action only will defeat it.I l earn by the public print s that th e Aud itor and myself are threatened with asuit by the holders of spec ial tax bonds . Th i s would be in effect a suit against asovereign State

,proh ib ited by the Constitution of the United States . It wil l b e

resisted, Of course, to the last extremity . I am informed that the Governor and

Attorney General have full power to employ counsel in such defence—“

s if not , Irecommend that such power be granted by the General Assembly .That the State shall pay these bonds in full—many of wh ich were fraudulentlysold by State agents

,nearly all under c ircumstanc es which amounted to notice to

prudent men not to buy— cannot be entertain ed , in my Opinion , for a moment .
