The True Policy of the Commonwealth.
SPEECH OF
HON. WM. A. WALLACE,
OF CLEARFIELD,
Delivered In the Penaivlvaula Henate on
Marrta H4th, IMt, iu Hupport of the
lllll fnr Aid ta the Allegheny Vallcj
Hallroad t.'oaipany, and to Provide fur
the Conatraetkin of a lwa;rade HbII
road through kjorthweateru Penuayl
vaula. Jlr. WALLACE. Mr. Bpenker, the
act of 1H;'H uulliorizi'd tlio Sunbury
and Ki io Huili-oad Company to mort
pue iu rond to tlio Coiuinonwculili
lor $3,500,0(10, furnished to it by the
Stuto to aid in its completion. Thirty-fire
bonds of tlOO,UOU each were
issued by the company and panned to
the Slato as tlio evidences of the debt
aecurcd by the niorlgno. These
bonds commenco to mature on the
first day of January, 1875, and bear
intercut at the rate of fivo per cent,
from May 19, 185.
The act of 1HG1 changed the form of
the security of the btale fur this debt,
and authorized the l'hiladelphia and
Erie Kailroad Company, the successor
of the Bunbury and Erie Railroad
Company, to give iu mortgage for
$1,000,000, with four bonds of $1,000,
000 euch, bearing interest at the rate
of sis per cent., maturing in April,
1001, as collateral security for the
original debt of the Sunhury and Erie
Railroad Company. The interest upon
these begins to run on the first day of
January, A. V. Ibii.
This is tho only security held by
the Slate for the indebtedness of the
Philadelphia and Erio Railroad Com
pany, and all tbe previous arrange
ments culminate in the simple propo
sition of payment of this mortgage in
forty years flora its date, fur the orig
inal mortgnge was given up when this
one was taken. Tho pro vino in the
4 lb section Of the act of 1M01, that the
whole of the principal and interest ol
the original debt should be paid by
the Company is in direct conflict with
the immediately preceding provisions
oi the same section, and the actual
fact exists that tit only fecuritj now
held by us id fi four million mortgage.
Tho clauso of covonant in the mort
gage, referred to by tho (Senator from
T'otter, is not a lion on the road, nor is
it tnado such by iu terms, and it can
only bo collected by suit on the cov
enant, which suit cannot bo brought
until the maturity of the whole of the
debt Ihirty-two years hence, and w hen
it docs become duo sho will find her
self met by tho positivo provisions of
the 4th fei:lion that tho four million
mortgage hhall be full satisfaction of
her debt.
Mr. OLMSTED. Does not the Sen
ator believo that the Railway Com pa
ny is liable to pay the full amount of
the bonds lor three million live hun
dred thousand dollars f
Mr. WALLACE. If I concede for
the m.ke of argument, the truth ot the
question propounded by the Senator
from Poller, let us see w hat w ill be
the effect. When can that covenant
be enforced f Not until the lorty
rears shall have expired There can
be no suit brought, by tho vcty terms
ol the proviso, until the lorly years
have expired. When that lime is up,
you will still be met by tho question
of whether you can or cannot collect
the amount, irue, sir, incro is ah
express covenant in the mortgage, by
which the Philadelphia aud Erie Rail
way Company agree to pay the uifler
enco between the four million mort
gage and the three millions five hun
dred thouxand dollars at the timo the
whole shall mature. Rut for that we
have no security. Thero is not a dol
lar of security for that; and if you
take tho report of tho Philadelphia
and Erie Railway Company and exam
ine us condition, you will learn that,
after its floating debt, its funded debt
and the three million live luindred
thousand dollars mortgago are paid,
the covenant to pay is valueless and
the debt lost. So much for the propo
sition thut the Senator from Potter
(Mr. Olmsted) makes to me in refer
ence to the proviso in the bill and the
nltimato liuoihty of the Company.
Now 1 will answer him with my opin
ion as to what the decision of the court
would be npon the naked legal ques
tion of the liability of the Company to
pay anything more than tho lour mil
lion mortgage anu us intcrvni.
I do not believe there could bo a
recovery upon tho covenant, for it is
in direct conflict witn tho express
terms of the act under which the
mnrttrace w as taken, and in pusuance
of that law the original morigagowas
civen up.
It seems to me thai any business
man looking at the condition of our
security, will understand that we have
an insolvent debtor and thut tins is a
propesition to us to make our debt
cnod. It is an offer of three millions
live hundred thousand dollars, the
payment to commenco on the first of
Aptil, 175, with interest from 1S72,
1 . I .1 I.I ! J I. 1 - J
(o fie seciireil ty llie i nimoeipiiia ana
Erie Railroad truarantee, the 1 ennsy
vanin Central lUilroad giinranlee, and
the Northern Contrul Railroad cunr
anteo. Il is an absolute, unqualified
cnarnntec of the debt to us. It makes
our debt good beyond petadventure.
For doing this they ak an abatement
of $500,000 on the debt, and a reduc
tion of the interest from six per cent.
to five per cent. Tho payment of the
money is secured and it is to come
into the trrr.sury of tho Common
wealth thirtr vears sooner than it
would otherwise come. To such an
offer what would a business man say f
1 now come to the main question in
the crise. The only security we have
for our debt is the $4,000,000 mort
gage The interest on that begins to
run in 1S72, and there is not a dollsr
of the principal to be paid ontil 1PP1.
Now suppoto the first instalment of
interest is not paid, we lore-cios me
inortraee. we obtain a decree of sale,
we advertise the road, and thon what
fnllowi ! We bav got to boy 1b

J.
road, or lose the debt. We hovo no
power to buy, nay, are forbidden to do
so, and even it we would buy it, we
would havo an elephant on our bands;
and I do not believe the road is worth
tho mortgages upon it before ours.
Kailroaus do not combine to snvo the
money duo the Commonwealth, but
to obtain the advantage of it. Their
policy is to get all they can lor them
selves, and when they cannot succeed
in a largo oporntion in any other way
Uicy coinbino themselves to make the
best bargain possible out of the Com
monwealth.
We are to regard this proposition as
business men, and tho first inquiry
nuturally is, what is our present secu
rity worth 7 The mortgago wo hold
is a third mortgago upon the Philadel
phia and Erie Railroad. Six millions
of money are prior liens to our debt.
Ihe actual condition ot the road is
bud, it ia struggling for existence, il
does not pay. If it wore put np to
public sale, it would not sell for the
liens that are opon record in advance
of ua, and at such sale we would be
oompellcd to be the purchaser or lose
our debt. Wo do not wish to buy the
road, nor do we wish to lose our debt.
A business men, owning such secu
rity, wo would promptly accept an
offer of compromise at fifty per cent.
1 am convinced that the security lor
this debt is bad, and it is for us as the
guardians of the interests of the Slate
to do that winch seems advantageous
for her. The fuult of the actual con
dition of tho doht does not lie at our
door, but is to be placed where it be
longs upon tbe legislature of 1801.
The bill before u authorize the
change of those securities and the
substitution of the bonds of the Alle
gheny Valley Railroad Company for
those of the Philadelphia and Erie
Railroad Company, giving to us
$M,500,000 In thirty-five bonds of
$100,000 each, commencing to mature
January 1st, 1875, with interest at
nve per cent., commencing January
1st, 1872. These bonds are to be
guaranteed by three railroad compa
nies: The Pennsylvania Railroad, the
Northern Central IUiilroad, and the
Philadelphia and Erie Railroad, thus
making morally certain tho payment
of the principal and interest, accord
ing to the terms ot the law.
The offer that comes to us is, we
will cive you full and perfect socurily
for your debt, and will commenco to
pay it twenty-six years sooner man
wo are bound to do so, if you will
abato 121 por cent, on tho principal
and so reduce the rate of interest
from six per cent, to five per cent.
In my opinion there ran ne but one
answer to this question, that of prompt
acceptance. Thus much of this ques
tion in a business point of view.
Senators seem to fear that this mon
ey may eventually bo taken away
from the purposo to which it is devo
ted by the Constitution and lost to
tho people. I do not fear such
result. Neither this legislature nor
any aubscqnent ono bus any such
power. If wo will not protect the
Suite and her interests, tho Supreme
Cour upon this subject, can and will
control us. We havo the power to
improve the value of the securities
we hold in trust for payment of the
debt, but we dare not divert them to
any othor purpose. We cannot do
what the Constitution forbids, at the
command even nf all the railroads in
the Stato. Hy the acceptance of this
proposition we secure earlier payment
and muke our debt good. Let us give
these companies all of the aid wo can,
consistent with tho intercuts of the
State. We arc now annually receiv
ing $100,0110 from the Pennsylvania
railroad upon her bonds given in pay
ment for the main lino. Five millions
and a half of these remain unpaid,
and we hear of no attempt to evade
their payment, I regard this in the
light of asimilar annuity, and Idonot
fear its loss, for we havo no powor to
throw it away.
Beyond and beneath this question,
in a business view, lies the much
greater question of our true policy as
legislators. Our geographical posi
tion makes us tho thoroughfare of na
tions, and the grand highway from
the commercial marts on the Atlanlio
by the commercial centre of the wost
to tho commercial marts on the Pacif
ic lies through our borders. The
eommerco of the world found npon
the shores of cither sea in passing
from ono to the other w ill enrich all
it touches. If we enrich one part of
the State we benefit tho whole, taxa
tion is lessened, wealth increased, our
cities prosper and our railways flour
ish. Our true mission is thai of ma
terial progress, and in the line of thut
mission, free transit and aid to devel
opments bo co mo imperative duties.
In my place hero in 18(57, and often
beforo,! said that this roule was tho
great national thoroughfare from the
seaboard to the west, and I affirmed
that it was our duty to open the door
anil permit lis occupation, x men
suid :
'Standing npon one of the hilli of
my ow n county, I can cast a stone,
with my left hand, into waters that
flow into the Gulf of Mexico, and with
my right hand, into those that flow
into the Cbesapeuko Ray. At that
point ihe summit between tho East
ern nnd Western waters can be passed
with gradients not exceeding fifty feet
to tho mile, and tho valleys of these
water courses run almost beneath the
line of a direct air-lino route belwcen
New York and the great centre of
railroads in the west.
Hero lies the great natural thor
onghfaro from the seaboard to tbe
West. In advocating ita adoption, I
am actuated by what I believe to be
the simplest principle in our ordinary
affairs. It is thai which dictate to
our common sense tho selection of tho
most direct means for the end of the
attainment desired. Here are the
easy grades, the direct line. Trade
and travel seek and invariably find
them. Thoir early adoption brings
early development. Refusal to open
the door now but postpones tha inevi
table future.

direct lines.
From Second Fork, tho summit of
which I have spoken is reached by
tho valley of Bennett's branch'of the
Sinnemniioiiing Creek, and connecting
with hiindy Lick Creek, a branch ol
tho Redhank, which is a tributary of
the Allegheny, llesconding the Sandy

Brookvillo is reached, and thence
stretching westward by tho valley of
ono of tho tributaries of Red bunk, a
bronch of tho Clarion is attained,
which ia descended, that stream is
crossed, and one of its western branch
es again asconded to the summit, be
tween tho Clarion nnd tho Allegheny,
where the head of Eust Sandy Creek
is reached, and that stream descended
to the Allegheny, whence easy gradi
ents and direct lines connect with
Franklin, and Warren. Ohio. If we
will take a mup and lay upon it a line
from the centre of the ruilway sys
tems of Ohio and Indiana to New
York, it will be found that by this
route, the deflection from thut line is
vastly less than any existing line.
Its distance i shorter by ninety
mile ; its curvature are lighter, and
its gradients are one-half easier than
any other existing railway. It i the
direct and natural route from New
York to the groat West. If to this
we add tbo fact that, diverging from
this line at tho mouth of Sandy Lick,
in Jefferson county, nnd following the
Redhank to the Allegheny, and thence
connecting with the Allegheny Valley
Railroad, Pittsburg is reached and
connected by easy gradients with the
line, we find that undreamed of capa
city for development exists in North
western Pennsylvania. These lines,
traversing tho counties of Cameron,
Elk, Clearfield, Jefferson, Clarion,
Venango, Mercer, Armstrong and
Butler, will stimulate enterprise,
bring forth their dormant treasures,
and add enormously to the wealth of
the State. In Clarion county there
exist immense deposits of iron ore
and Other minerals awaiting means of
transit and capital for their develop
ment Up to this time sho has re
ceived no benefit from public improve
ments, and tho enterprise of her citi
zens has been repressed and d'sour
aged by their inability to compcto
with those more favored with facilities
for rapid transit and easy production.
They ask you that you shall but give
them the right to add to your wealth
in nourishing and invigorating their
own. The counties of Elk, Clarion,
Clearfield and Jefferson bristle with
forest of pine and hemlock and oak

invite other capital to come in and

Upon the routo I have described, and
bedded in the hills w hich border the
vulleys of Bennett's Branch and Sandy
Lick, in tho counties of Clearfield and
Jefferson, easily attainable and most

Tho struggling Philadelphia and
hne is completed, the aid the Lorn
monwealth trave her placed her in a
position to go forwurd, and the forests
of iho Northwestern part of the State
are now moving on in career ot de
velopment. If we had never received
a dollar of the debt secured by the
mortgage of 1861, the State is the
gainer. jow come to ti a repetition
of tbo proposition. The Allegheny
Valley Ru-lrond, located upon the
ground I havo described, is struggling
to complete its lino. Wo can aid its
exertions, wo can ensure it com
pletion ; in doing so, we benefit the
State by securing its debt, as well as
by increasing its wealth, iu population
and its industrial interests and devel
op its hidden resources. The coun
ties of Cameron, Elk, Clearfield, Jeffer
son and Clarion have never received
from the Commonwealth one dollar
for their internal improvement. The
debt that now presses upon the Com
monwealth, and for which all of her
citizens are equallr bound and towaid
the payment of which my constituents
must and do contribute, was conlrac
ted for internal improvements tlmt
benefitted the eastern, central, north
err. and western portion of the State,
but not one dollar thereof was ever
expended In tho district I have the
honor to represent. If this bill were
an absolute gilt by the Common weahl
to these people for the pnrposo of in
ternal improvements, it would be but
simple equity and even handed justice
Much more, t it iut when it is in the

He paused but an instant and plunged
