The Milan exchange. (Milan, Gibson County, Tenn.) 1874-1978, 1880-07-22

The New York Times and Tribune
are now supporting Garfield with all
their might, and denouncing as ''reb-
els" those who are opposed to him.
In 1873, Immediately after the Cred
it Mobilier investigation, the Times
said:
"Messrs. Kelley and Garfield pre-.
sent a most distressing figure. Their
participation IN the Credit Mosilier af-
fair is complicated by the most unfor-
tunate contradictions of testimony.
The character of the Credit Mo-
bilier was no secret. The source of
its profits was very well known at the
time congressman bought it Though
Oakes Ames may have succeeded in
cOncealing his own motive, which was
to bribe congressman, their acceptance
of the stock was not on that account
innocent. The dishonOr of the act,
as participation in an obvious fraud,
still remains.
2 "Some of them have INDUCED in
testimony with reference to the mat
ter, which has been contradicted.
The committee distinctly rejects the
testimony of several of the members.
This can only be done on the ground
that it is untrue. But untrue testi-
mony given under oath is morally, il
not legally. perjury.
at is the clear duty of congress to
visit with punishment all who took
Credit Mohilier stock from Oakes
Ames."
About the same time the Tribune
said:
"James A. Garfield. of Ohio, had
ten shares; never paid a dollar; re,
ceived, 1929, which, after the inves'
tigation began, he was anxious tC
have considered as a loan from Mr.,
Oakes Ames to himself.
"Well, the wickedness of all of u
is that these men betrayed the trust
of the people, deceived their constitu'
ents, and by evasions and falsehood:
confessed the transactions to be dis
graceful.
"Mr. Ames establishes very clearly
the point that he was not alone in this
offence. If he is to be expelled fol-
bribery, the men who were bribeG
should go with him.

ATennessee Inventor.
Scientific American.

Mr.. John T. Hodge, of Carters
Depot, Tenn, has invented conven-
lent and simple device for containing
and delivering groceries and other ar
ticles to scales to be weighed, thereby
avoiding the necessity of keeping such
articles in boxes and barrels under
and about shop counters, and avoid
ing also the Inconvenience and labor
of frequently handling such boxes
and barrels. The invention consists
of series of hoppers or equivalent re-
ceptacIes placed ON the floor of the
room above the shop counter, and of
pipes or tubes leading from each one
of said hoppers or receptacles down to
within short distance of the counter,
so that the scales can be placed under
the mouths of these pipes to receive
the contents therefrom, the pipes be-
ing provided with gates or slides to
regulate the delivery Of articles from
them.

VOLCANIC VOMITING.
Latest from the Sandwich Isiands-Gareat
Streams of Lava.

Special Correspondence Qf The National Republican
HAWAII, S. l., Nov. Il, 1880.
For q fortnight previous to the 9th of November
Hiloskics, commonlys fearful and moist, had been
serenely bright, and oil nature had not only worn
Its lovelicstgarb, but been unspeakably bountiful
in her gins of balmy air fragrance of flowers, and
that all-pervadng quictude that makes tropical
countries, when at their best cmblems of rest and
luxury.
When we went to bed OH that Friday night there
were not only no signs OF either outbreak or up
heavai, but the son swell of the ocean and the
was all that even suggested that oil tho world was
not at sleep. II was indeed strangely calm and
quiet night I'LL toward morning when we were
by a cry from the street that Ma,ina Loa had burst
m forth and was pouring streams Of liquid fire down
w We % GsdS GdsoS Ssh as
only u few hundred yards from our house. where
such sight, so striking, terrible, and grand broke
seldom looked upon, whose glory and splendors can
never while life lasts be forgotten.
Mauna Loa, though forty miles away, seemed to
stand Just opposite on the other side, so near that
we could almost touch its base, towering like
great sentinel over sea, earth, and heaven. The
mountain, the sea, the heavens over our heads,
away were all atiame and glowing in tho lurid
light that burst In great clouds of fire and fame
thousand feet above the level Of the sea, in which
we could distinctly see two streams Of molten
iuNa, ivulu uS Wuter anu rcu us nre, encn more
than hundred yards wide, rushing in a deep and
steady flow In the direction Of Mauna Kea, while
solid columns, castlcshaped, of fire and lava were
thrown three hundred feet in the air with each
beat OF the great heart hidden in the mountains
bosom, not spasmOdlcally, but in measured sue
ceSson, and as regular as the beating of slccpers
pulse.
One of these streams, fortunately the smaller
was and is still flowing toward HilO, but we hope
that owing to the great distance that tintervenesit
may spend itself In the canons and chasms or DOS
sibly In the ocean before reaching Hilo, so often
threatened with destruction by volcanic flow,
earthquakes and tidal waves.
Three days later the larger stream of lava
changed Its course toward a point opposite Hilo,
and Is now flowing in the direction Of Kilawca,
devastating region TO which II can fortunately do
but little more injury than to add fields and
slopes of lava TO what was nearly oil lava before
This Is the slope that runs off for twenty-five miles
from Mauna Loa TO the crater of Kilawea which
latter volcano is even more active now than ever
What the outcome of all this is to be none
but the Good Master can tell. How awful,
appalling and grand We can realize the splendor
ofthe spectacle ofa world turned up and rolling
away as O scroll. w
