demands full equivalent for every expendi-

pervading principles of its common law, and

Gently in regard 10 Mr.. Beecher's increase OF sal
sry. II has been stated that the members OF the
Plymouth Church congregation were very back
ward in subscribing toward the additional salary,
and that it was designed TO mortgage the Bethel

theso reports are denied by the members of the
church. II is asserted by them that out of the
whole amount voted to Mr. Beecher, only $20,-
COO yet remains to be collected. This will not be
needed before next winter. There has been no
backwardness or lack OF zeal in the matter, and
no difficulty will be experienced it is believed.

Il COWARDLT CRIME AGAINST THE

~ The Maine. Standard, the Portland Ar.
gus and the Bangor Commercial, have
each printed and reprinted DR.. Jordan's
abomlnhble lies about Gov. Cony and Gen.
Hersey in connection with the Agriculture
al College Scrip. The lies about the liv-
ing can be looked out for by those aifec-
ted. We call attention now to lies about
the dead.
The editors of these papers know that
these statements of DR., Jordan were
shameless libels upon the honored dead,
and they knew it when they published
them. We want to make our charge
against these papers as specific and d.
rectas language can express it. We ac-
ouse them each and all of having wanton-
ly. recklessly and wickedly printed lies
and slibels about men who are in their
graves and cannot speak.
- We brand such conduct as crime-a

crime that unites cowardce with its wick
edness-a crime that no decent Modoc In
