Newspaper Defamation.


The basest purpose to which a
newspaper can be applied Is in
defaming private character; and
yet unfortunately for the public
morals there are many persons
connected with the country
press, who, having no character
of their own to maintain, deem
it legitimate journalism to assail
the character of others in order
to attract attention to their pa
per; and having no clearly de-
fined ideas Of political principles
think they can best commend
themselves to party support by
defaming their political oppo-
nents; substituting ribald invec-
tive and malignant aspersion for
argument or discussion Of meas
ures or qualifications. Thus is the
noble profession of Journalism
dishonored, party politics degra-
ded, and some of our best citl-
zens deferred from taking an ac-
tive part in public affairs by the
fact that they would thus expose
themselves to the filthy abuse of
a blackguard partisan press from
which the purest character and
most blameless life affords them
no protection.
Among the repeated examples
of this debased journalism, is one
of recent occurrence: Hon. Tho
mas Read has been a citizen of
this Territory for about twenty
years, coming here as an agent
Of Wells, Fargo Il Co., position
which he had held in California,
and almost continuously since he
has occupied public positions,
including chief clerk in the Sur
veyor Generals office, Secretary
of the Grand Lodge of Masons,
Presbyterian Elder, and Presi-
dent Of the Legislative Council.
During all this time his private
character has been above re-
proach, his name has been before
the public both here and in Cal
ifornia, and the place from which
he came was no secret. Mr.
Read was recently nominated by
the Governor and confirmed by
the unanimous vote Of the COun-
ell as Territorial Auditor; where
upon the Walla WalIa Statesman,
a newspaper of the baser sort,
represents with all the particu-
larity belonging to fact, that Mr..
Read is a refugee from justice;
that he was a defaulter as Treas
urer of El Dorado county, Cali
fornia, to the amount OF many
thousands dollars, for which he
was under Indictment, and only
escaped trial and conviction for
a penitentiary offence by flight
to Washington Territory. Near
ly all of the newspapers in this
Territory gave currency to this
report, while the facts above re-
lated in regard to Mr.. Read,
which were we'll known to all,
were conclusive OF it's utter alb
surdity; that a man SO well
known should be allowed to rest
under Indictment for embeZzle-
ment for a score Of years with
out any attempt to bring him to
Justice; or that Wells, Fargo X
Co. should commission as their
agent a fugitive felon, is one OF
those incredible inventions to
which no thoughtful person
could give any credence; but the
malignant purpose of the villifer
was accomplished when he could
cast a shadow of doubt upon the
fair fame of man whose social
position was beyond his emula-
lation. The slander has travel
led far and wide upon the auda-

Political FauIt-nnders.

mothers, relates the following
incident: A widow and wldower,
each with one boy, the two be-
ing about the same age, inter-
married, and then the trouble
/ began. The wife and mother,
being an amiable and conscien-
tlous women, determined that
there should be no cause of COM
plant on account of partiality or
unjust discrimination in favor of
her own child. But she soon
learned to her sorrow that her
best resolutions were forestalled
by the popular prejudice that a
step-mother or a mother-in-law
is Of necessity natural enemy
to those to whom she holds that
relation. She had given to each
of the boys-Tom, her own son,
and John, her step-son-a piece
of cake. W-a-hi" cried John,
"Tom has got the biggest piece. !"
An exchange was instantly or
dered and made, when "W-a-h!"
cried John again, "Tom has got
the biggest piece yet" "How
can that be, my son?' mildly
asked the patient mother, "if he
had the biggest piece before, you
have it now." "I don't know"
sobbed the unreconciled Tom,
II 'spose you always give him
the biggest piece cause he's your
boy"
This incident is fully parallel
ed by the character of the COM
plants made against President
Hayes. For forty years the Ad-
ministration of the Government
has been welded to party; the
popular sentiment has been that
a citizen not of the party house
hold had no share in the honors
or emoluments of Office, and that
party service was the paramount
claim to political honors; that
"to the victors belong the spoils,"
and that the defeated We're only
to be tolerated as a vanquished
enemy, without any voice in the
government, being thus practi-
cally disfranchised during their
minority. The evils of this sys-
tenn had become so threatening
to the success of popular govern
ment, that the disinterested pat
riots of all parties demanded a
divorce Of the Government from
party in the matter Of civil ser
vice, and that country should be
the mistress of the household
where party had heretofore rul-
cd supreme. This change was
solemnly agreed to by both po-
litical parties in their represent
ative assemblies. Mr.. Hayes
was declared President pledged
to this reform. But the moment
he attempts to carry it out in
good faith; to ignore party in
the administration OF the affairs
of the government, and impair
TALLY recognize the rights OF all,
whether they be the children of
promise or of grace; a howl is
raised, first from one side and
then from the other, that he is
giving the largest piece to the
offspring of the old system or of
the new; and no reversal or ex-
change has any effect in silen-
cling the murmurs. The politi-
clans who are the offspring and
growth Of the old combinations,
notwithstanding the fact that
they fully committed themselves
to the new policy, feel them
selves orphaned and lllegitimized
by it's workings, and hold the
President solely responsible for
Gle consequences. If the Pres
ident yields to the public de-
mands and appoints Southern
Democrat to fill a Federal Office
in a Democratic district, the old
school Republicans denounce it
as taking the children's bread
and giving it to the dogs; if he
favors one of his own party,
why, "Tom has got the biggest

The United States Minister to ia
pan informs the Department of
State that it appears, from the Japan
Daily Herald Of the Both of October
last, that the total expense caused
by the Satsuma rebellion, up to the
27th of October, amounts to $44,-
638, ,09S. As the rebellion began in
February last. this shows an extra
ordinary average expenditure by
the Japan government on account of
the rebellion Of over IS 900 600 per
month. The forces engaged in the
service were, it is supposed, not
more than 80, 900 men.

The House recently passed bill
prescribing an oath of Office which
eliminates from. the statutes the law
which prescribes the taking of the
iron-clad oath. A bill was also pass

provides for the disqualification of

PROF. RICHARD.-We are sorry to know
that Prof. z. Richard has resigned the posi-
ton OF musical instructor at the Virginia
Female Institute, and purposes moving to
the far South to pursue his profession. Prof.
Richard has been connected with the V. F.
I. for nearly nine years, and during that
time has added to his own envia5le reputa-
ton as well as to that of the school. AS in
structor in instrumental music he has few if
any superiors, his skill in execution being
almost equalled by his faculty Of imparting.
Not Only is he Il successful teacher, but as q
musical composer ranks high with the pro-
fession-his compositions being universally
recognized for their excellence and original
fty. The town will lose a valuable citizen
and the State one Of its best musicians by
Prof R.'s REMOVAL land wherever he goes he
will be followed by the kindest wishes of
host of friends.
He will be accompanied by his talented
wife, Madame Julie Richard, one OF the most
accomplished ladies and successful teachers
OF modern languages in the South. For six
years she has taught in the A. F. s. and V.
F. L., and her labors have contributed in no
small degree to the renown of those educa-
tional institutions. She is the ,authoress OF
several little French plays which have been
successfully performed by the pupils of the
schools. It will be a difficult matter to sup
ply the vacancy occasioned by her removal,
for not only was her talent appreciated, but
her gentle manners endeared her to those
with whom she was associated. .,f;-.
