Bcecher has decided to "brass" il out. Last

vacation, and on Friday evening took tie

The same forgctfulncss, however, did not

ly prosecuted, and that they would stand by
him, come what would. The occasion was
notable for vast amount OF "gush" and
maudlin sentimcntaliy.
On Sunday Bcechcr went father and occu-
fled the pulpit of Plymouth church, as usual.
The fact that he would do so was announced
in advance, and the result was thatth church
was not only crammcd to rcpletion, but thou
sands were unable to gain an entrance. The
same scene was repeated in the evening.
Bccchcr, in neither scrplon, however, alluded
10 the great scandal.
While it is evident that the mass of Beech.
cr's congregation are thus willing to over
look the past and stand by him, the Christian
sentiment not only Of the outside world but
of New York and Brooklyn regard his ac-
ton under the circumstances, as bordering on
shameless ctirontry True his people may
regard him IS innocent, but certainly no in
yestigation has thus far developed enough to
that innocence. Bcccher himself
by Tuesday, seemed to have come to the con,
cusion that something more was necessary,
and on that day commenced suits against,
Mouton and Tllton fOrlibcl, thus turning the |
Investigation over to the courts.

/ Eds Free TraRer.-As the time is At hand
when the people of La Sale county will bC
called upon to elect three representatives tc
the state legislature, il is the duty of every
voter to inform himself sufficiently in refer
ence to the candidates to be able TO vote for
men both honest and capable--eSpecially ho@

honesty. Now, as republican, I wish to
enter my protest against Z. II, Spiccr as fit
man for representative, because from the evl-
dcnce before me, I believe him to be a dis.
honest man. | say this, on account Of his
management of the MarseIiles school fund,
That management shows him either dishon.
est or woctully ignorant, and either should
disqualify him for representative.
The case is like this: Mr. Spccr has been
one of the school trustees Of this town for the
last 10 or u years, and President Of the
board As such, he never required in all that
time but one bond of the treasurer, though
the law requires new one every year. In
1872 the board found that the treasurer was
deiaulter to the amount Of $500 to $780,
yet, surprising as it may appear, the board
rc.appointed him and kept the fraud covered
up. In January 1873 the treasurer was again
short from &140O to $tS00sand then the whole
rascally business came to light, after the board
had kept Tie first defalcaton concealed, and
