IL reading the above from lions Her
aid. the force of it is strengthened by the
consideration that the calls of the denomi-
nation carry the Methodist ministers OF
the North into the South and make them
well acquainted with the state Of society
there, thus enabling them to speak from
what they have seen and know. And 1t is
also ngthened by the fact that the Meth

less there were the most ample cause and
provocation to do so.
When the ministers and newspapers OF
that denomination take open ground

will put confidence in their opinions and

Senators in Congress may declare them
false and libclous.

4 BRUTAL OUTAGE.
from the Chicago Tribune.

The st. Louis Times, the Bourbon organ oil
Missouri, prints the following brutal and cold
bloodcd paragraph in recent Issue;
"Mr. j. Ii. Ogesby was not compelled 10 re
sign the Presidency of the New Orleans Chamber
of Commerce. After his extraordinary testimony
in behalf of the Kellogg Government, he simply
found himself in position from which the com
mon ciyilitics and courtesies of social life were
withdrawn. A resident and business man for
half century, he awoke to the discovery that he
was without a single acquaintance among reputa-
BILE business men, and his bank-that had become
famous as custodian of commercial wealth.
| found itself in single day without a single de-
positor Mr.. Oglesby was as completely alone as
If he had lived in desert. Isolated and ignored
| by the friends he had known for fifty years, the
terrible rebuke struck home as none other could,
nd he resigned his commercial honors for friend
| less retirement. To nature like Mr.. Ogesby S,
such manifestation of public disapproyal was
crushing in its effect. He now lies at the point OF
death"
The facts in this case arc substantially these
Mr.. Oglesby has been a respectable citizen and
prominent business man of New Orleans for over
fifty years. During all that time no faint has ever
rested upon his moral reputation or commercial
honor. He was summoned before the committee
to testify, and while he did not seek to justify Mr..
Kellogg or his administration, when asked some
questions touching Kelloggs relations to the bust
ness community, he spoke favoTably of them
rather than stain his honor by lying. Because he
would not lie he was ostracised socially and com
merciay and driven into retirement and to his
death bed, by men who contend there is no such
| thing in Louisiana as intimidation and coercion !!
And this is sample Of Southern chiyalry ard
honor Could there be more notable exhibition
of White League hate and fendishnesss If the
Conservatives of Louisiana thus hound a man TO
his death whose honor has been kept intact for
| fifty years, because he will not lie and soil his
honor to suit their partisan purposes, can there be
any more convincing proof that they themselves
have lied in their testimony?
The ostracism of Mr.. Oglesby is the blacklist
deed the Conservatives of Louisiana have yet COM
mitted, and should bring upon them the swift con-
domination of all high-minded and truthful men.
This is matter which lies outside of politics. 1t
is a personal outrage Of the gravest character,
which will come home to every one who has re-
spect for truth and honor and it shows, nothing
else could, the fiendsh hate and malevolence Of
the Bourbons toward any man who will not
pros. ute his honor in their behalf. whole life
time of labor for the interests Of his city and State,
and reputation in politics, in trade and in socie-
ty, unspotted by a single dsreputable act, count
nothing as against his refusal TO lie. This IS an
unpardonable offence.

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT

TO the Editor ofMe Journal.
Allow me few words in regard to Mr.. Grindle's
notice in your columns Of my lecture on capital
punishment
Mr.. Grindle, evidently did not hear the lecture,
or if so, wholly mistook the purpose Of it, 1t was
as stated, an examination of the grounds rea-
sons on which capital punishment is based and a
statement of objections to the death penalty. But
incidenty it did show "that the death penalty is
anecesSdry, and iaeypeaieat."
Unnecessary, lst because the criminal could be
restrained from further crime without killing him
I'd. because by killing the the criminal, restitu-
ton could be made to society; Sd because the
death penalty forbids the possibility of reform and
restoration of the criminal Incxpedient, lst be-
cause the difficulty OF conviction is enhanced by
the severity of the penalty; ID because Of the fall
lbity of human Judgement; 3rd because
Of the liability CT conyicting the innocent
1t was easier, and perhaps Mr. G. is more com
petent to deny the suficency of the arguments
and facts which were adduced to sustain the above
positions than to meet and answer them fairly.
OF course it is not expected that Mr.. G. could
meet the above positions in single newspaper al
tcle. Butt was not in good taste to merely pro-
nounce an argument failure, without any refer
ence to its matter or facts. He could have with
propricy said that it failed to convince him. But
argument demands argument, not assertion or de-
NAL

for tooth, which he says SIS the very ideal of
penal law. If retaliation is the very ideal Of pc
nal law, then has capital punishment claim for
consideration on basis not allowed by any mod
ern jurst, save Mr.. G. if a jurist he be.
The law, in spirit and letter. of retaliation, or
an eye for an eye, &c. was repealed by the Great
Teacher OF higher anG diviner principle which
has tempered the criminal laws Of all Christendom.
Matt. S, g.
Mr.. G. asserts that the "dea,h on the gallows
terrifes". But it was shown by the testimony OF
the keeper of Newgate prison, man in a much
more favorable position to judge correctly than
Mr.. e. that men were not terrified by the gallows.
1t was further shown by II cases Of murder in \
Y. City, that there was no terror in the gallows.
| Again Mr. Gs answer to the argument that the
certainty Of punishment and not the severity ex-
erts greater restraining influence over vicious
