A contemporary says, vrhere is a
man up in our country who always
pays for his paper in advance: He
has never had sick day in his life;
never had any corns or toothache
his potatoes never rot, the weevil
never eats his wheat; the frost never
kills his corn or beans; his babies
never cry in the night, and his wife
never scolds.

SuERMAN'S DEFENCE.

j e - I q .
Secretary Sherman has revealed
his plan Of defence against the DAM
aging exposures, of the house com. :,
mittee. He will demand that the.
committee shall Ego behind the re-
tvrns" and investigate the condition
of things existing in the Feliciana
Parishes before the presidential
election the intimidation, murders
and violence alleged to have been
committed there one to six months
prior to the day of election. "Bull.
doing" is favorite word with the
secretary, and he expects to iustify
what he did after the election by
showing what was done by the "bull-
dozers" before it; and it said that II
the committee declines to extend its
inquiry to accommodate him he will
publish this evidence himself.
But the secretary forgets that the
committee has no authority to do
what he asks. It was instructed to
inquire into frauds committed after
the election, not violence committed
before-to inquire what was done by
the Louisiana returning board in
New Orleans, not what was done by
the people in the Feliciana Parishes.
The house directed its committee to
report what Secretary Sherman did
at New Orleans, and what Minister
Noycs did at Tallahassee in connec-
ton with the fraudulent manipula-
tion of the electoral votes Of Louisi-
ana and Florida, and it is to this
point the secretary will be required
to limit his testimony. He seems
anxious to excuse the wrong he did.
by proving the wrong which some.i
body else disl-to justify the fraud
committed by the returning board
at his instigation in New Orleans,
after the election, by introducing q
lot of baldcrdash about bulldozing In
the Feliciana Parishes three months
| /. 8 80 q . AZ. -Hf .4r-
before ~ a'.s.'H
The country understands the
question quite as we'll as Mr.. Sher-.
man. He will be required to limit
testimony to the point at Issue.
That point is whether he melted the
Louisiana returning board to throw
out certain Democratic majoritics,
and in the name Of Mr.. Hayes prom.
isedl to reward them for doing it.
It is Secretary Sherman who is. on
trial, not somebody else. II he is
innocent, let him prove It; if he IS
guilty, he need not attempt to break
the force Of, the fact BY proving that
others were guilty before him. St.
