To common outsider, knowing
little of the inside influences that
put one man down and another up
in times of war and great political
upheavals, there is something most
strange and unaccountable in the
case of this prominent General who
was tried and condemned on charg-
es of misconduct on the battlefield,
amounting to treason.
For twenty years Gen. Porter
has proclaimed his innocence and
demanded justice at the hands of
his county.
Now, after two decades, the Gen
eraI-in-chief of the Army comes
forward in letter to the public,
wholly acquitting the condemned
soldier, and exhonerating him from
all blame.
To an outsider, as remarked above,
this is most unaccountably strange.
If General Grant Tow speaks truly,
why this twenty years silence,
while a brave comrade is dragging
out his declining years, wearing
the cankering brand of "Traitor,'
when "Patriot" should have bright
ened his brow and illuminated his
illustrious pathway?
Even 1906" medal would have
been a relief in lieu Of a traitors
brand, and if General Grant has

Moral Support.

The absorbing issue before the
Indiana Legislature to meet in
January, is the same as that engag-
ing the special attention Of all our
people. The representatives, Of
that State, us of this, have been
brought face to face with the a.
reused people in their persistent
demands for their rights as free
men to settle a great issue that
deeply concerns their prosperity,
safety and happiness; and woe be-
tide the unjust stewards that per-
sist in longer trihing with the
prayers of a patient and long-suffer-
ing constituency!
But what we wanted to urge in
this connection, is this: Let the
sovereign people of every county
strengthen and hold up the hands
of their pledged representatives in
every legitimate way. Let them
know and feel that in this issue of
life and death you are close at their
backs, watching and trusting them
with intensest interest and ankle
ty for the fate Of the Amendment.
True men are made stronger by the
moral support Of those whom they
serve.
This from the Monitor Journal
<1nd) is appropriate here:
mo matter how strong a tenn
perance man you have elected to
the legislature, do not think he
can get along without feeling the
moral support Of his constituency
every day while in the Legislature,
for he comes under the power of
the whisky ring Of the whole
United States when he comes here
the first Thursday Of January, and
he stays under it's constant infu-
ence every hour he is here, until
our amendment is killed or SUI bmit-

Tossing Christian was the Judas to
sell the salvation of his fellows, for
this petty price. Surely the ques-
ton is pertinent, Chow does he
sleep?" Indeed, how can he sleep
at all? 1t seems to us that all the
cries Of suffering, all the groans OF
misery, all the walls of wee, and
all the horrid demons of deliriums
that will be caused by this mans
impious treason against the peace
and happiness of his community,
would meet him, haunt him, torment
him, if ever he dare close his eyes
for slumber! Verify doth our
friend we'll say, II would not be in
his shoes for Summers county,"
