encouragement to the Democracy, uttered
by Republican Vice-President to an Inde-

"I HAVE seen the weakness OF parties

as the cause of party weakness.

FRIDAY MORNING, :::::::: SEPTEMBER 3 1876.

THERE are people who think Henry
Wilson is weak man." writes Gath from
Saratoga. Indeed

"a kind of patent drill,
TO force an entrance to the Nations till, a."

To force an entrance to the Nations till"
seems to be the shadowy though
shadowless ghost which hsunts them as
they toll through life despondently, sur
rounded by the evidence of general immo.
rality evoked for their delusion by the
tainted influences of the Detective press.
There was time when Lowell wrote and
Wilson believed that
With eyes uplift, the poets soul should look,
Into the Eternal Promise, nor should brook
One pryipg doubt to shake his faith sublime;
To him the earth is ever In her prime
And dewiness Of morning"
But now their vision is gangrened. They
see nothing, hear nothing, and believe moth
ing, that does not prove to them the actual
presence of fraud born prematurely from
"Within the teeming womb Of sin and crime"
But the poet seeks no office, and may have
had his eye upon some Massachusetts, fellow
citizen when he sang that
"Man or race is on the downward path"
National Republican., 1875-09-03

"IF that conversation was on record, I"
SAID Mr.. Wilson, 'it would make some ex-
"citement," and he immediately proceeded
to put it on record.

and he went on talking to the extent of
column interview.

A PARTICIPANT IN THE MOUNTAIN
MEADOW MASSACRE TELLS
THE HORRfD STORY.

1, is Philip klinger Smith. Mormon,
in whose favor q none prossqui has been
entered, and who has turned States cyl
dence, who tells this sickening tale:
We passed the immigrants at Iron
Springs the next morning. and we passed
them again As We came back. They had
twenty or thirty wagons. containing over
one hundred people-old men and md
die aged, old women and middle aged.
Youths and children. Near home We
met Ira Alien. He said the immigrants
doom WAS sealed the die WAS cast for
their destruction; that Lee had orders to
take men out and intercept them. Allen
was to 60 on ami counterfeit what we
did. l went home. Three days after
Haieh, sent for me, and said orders had
come from camp: that he had been to
Parowan and got further orders from
Colonel W. II. Dame to finish the mas
sacre. and to spare only the small chill
dren v no could not tell tales. l went off
and met Allen, our first runner, and
Others. Higbee came ont and said:
You are ordered out. armed and
equipped. As l went, Hopkins, Hig-
bee. John Willis and Sam Purdy went
along. We had two wagons got TO
Hamblin's ranch in the night, three
miles from the immigrants. There we
met Lee and others from the general
camp, where the largest number Of men
were. l then found the immigrants
were not oil killed. Lee called me out
to one side for consultation. He told me
the situation. The immigrants were
strongly fortified; no chance to get them
ont; that Higbes had been ordered to
decoy them, and the command given to
John D. Lee to carry out the whole plan.
They went to Camp Lee. called all the
soldiers in q hollow square. and ad-
dressed them. They were all white men,
about fifty in all. The Indians we're in
another camp. Saw there Slade and bis
SOD, Jim Pearce and probably his soDs
too. All these we're from Cedar City.
Slade and I we're outraged; but We said.
what can We do; We cannot help our
selves. Just then the order to march
was given. Higbee had command Of
part Of the men; it was the Nanvoo Le-

GORHAM At UNION HALL

The address of Mr.. Gorha'u. says
the A!tc of Friday. commenting on what
had transpired the night before at Union
Hall. San Francisco, was an eXtraordi-
nary exhibition of his great power as
political speaker and orator. When he
appeared on the stand he was greeted
by the ringing cheers OF the great crowd
before him. The applause was so great
and SO long continued that the Chair
man of the meeting gracefully retreated
from the absurd effort to Introduce
speaker who was SO we'll known. by say
ing that an introduction was evidently
not required. Aud throughout bis great
speech, which was 4 marvel of vigor.
earnestness, ciearness, impassioned log
ic. sarcastic and indignant invective and
OF eioquepce, be held his audience, as If
spell bound. until the last. He painted
Bidwell as be Is; stripped the mask from
Booth: and laid bare the weak assurance
of the Democratic party. More striking
than all was his bold. ringing challenge
to the world to investigate his own acts
both public and private. and his seornful
hurting back of the charges which had
been heaped upon himslt. into the teeth
of Booth and Bidwell, whom he charged
to defend themselves if they could, or be
branded as self-convicted frauds, both
in public and private life. Wedepreeate
the apparent necessity which exists for
these leading participants in the cam
palgn to ell the air and the public mind
with the bitterness of their personal
strife; but the people cannot help admir-
ing the bold, defiant and manly defense
which Gorham makes of his own char
aeter. and the fearlessness with which
he challenges his chief opponent to the
wager of political warfare.
