Abstract:
"Private." Agrees with William Bosson (1806-1887) that the state debt is barring the State from "immediate prosperity." Likes Bosson's idea, but explains that "our legislature is laboring to discover how not to pay the debt, and I am afraid that the way has been found." Discouraged. "I hope that time will bring a reaction in public sentiment, and that we will be saved from impending disgrace."
