cREDo, I BELIEVE.

There are but few people. no matter
how ignorant, no matter how they may
have lacked in opportunities, but what
have some faith, some belief, some reli-
gion, and to that faith they hang and
find comfort, although it may be delu-
sion. The Christian religion is one which
has stood the shock Of centuries, and SO
far more fully meets the wants of man
than any other. The arguments of those
who like Ingersol, are arrayed against
it, consists mainly in ridicule and sar-
caem of rites and ceremonies, and deals
not with the good they do. Ridicule is
the poorest argument and resorted to
when all else fails. II don't know" is
another one to fall back on. When
asked about God and the future, the an.
swer, II don't know anything about it
it may be true and it may not be true az
taught in Christian theology, but II
don't know" Is the argument of last re.
sort. The CHRONICLE this week pub.
fishes an article from the pen of DR.. W
J. Slower, of Salesville, called forth by
some editorial comments Of this paper
and by lady correspondent. We want
to give all sides : hearing, and while We
do not endorse the sentiments of the
letter. We publish it 80 that we may not
be accused Of unfairness.

SCANDAL.

We have often wondered if there were
any pure men in the country. No sooner
does one appear before the public as q
seeker for position than the garbage
seekers, ransack his private and public
life to find out something immoral in his
character. That foul blots can in many
instances be found, there cannot be much
doubt, and but few of US but who have
committed indiscretions in early youth,
some to such an extent as to SOW our
future pathway with thorns. We say
that even this can be done and the past
atoned for, and man should be judged,
rot by his little indiscretions, but by his
public acts, by his dealings with his fell
low men, by his faithfulness In places of
trust and honor, in places where the
temptation to violate his obligations are
great ana ne reslstS and rises superior to
mere selfish gain, and does that which
honor and justice dictates. When, how
ever he has proved false to public trust,
when he has violated confidence reposed
in him, when he has used his public
position for selfish purposes, then he
should be banished from the public are
ma. The retail of sickening stories does
nobody any good, but does everybody
harm. We are pleased to note, however,
that scarcely any paper which pretend>
to responsibility, have given these scan
dals any place in their columns, except
to condemn the publication.

We understand there is a project on
foot to establish flour mill at or near
Salesville. There is large and growing
settlement in that part of the county,
and an extensive area of fine wheat land
and mill would seem to be necessity
but we would warn any parties who con-
VempIaye efuctIng mIII; rrau nunc TUT
the most improved machinery will pay.
We must haye the best of mills to pro-
duce the best of -four, and then we can
not only compete with eastern products
but can drive it out of the market. We
should be pleased to see the enterprise
prosper.

RI Is
the head Of the American bar to have
been gallant soldier during our country's
most needed hour facing death when
our country called-leading his gallant
Illinois regiment on to victory and death,
to save our country place on the map
of the world and strike the shackles OF
slavery from four millions Of human be-
ines-made and held as such in the South
by the teachings of that blessed book de-
yine-and to make our country, in truth
and fact, "The land of the free and home
of the brave" He has lived a pure and
spotless life. No moral blight has ever
disgraced his fair name. How different
his is from that of the foremost clergy
man of our times, Henry Ward Beecher,
who escaped through the verdict of a
hung jury, when every leading man
knew that he was guilty of adultery per
jury and hypocrisy" s" said Charles A.
Dana of the great New York Sun. Again
the Colonel has proved himself to be a
devoted husband and model father; a
philanthropist, every ready to help the
down-trodden and oppressed. Now, as
for myself, am not in favor of inter
fering with the churches. think they
are doing good service in moralizing the
community. They are doing all in
their power for the cause of temperance
charity and humanity. The churches
have changed as the intelligence of the
people has drifted into higher conccp
ton of the knowledge OF things. l am In
| favor of having them make more changes
| To throw overheard the horrible doc
trine Of eternal punishment,an and teach the
good, moral precepts, as taught by Jesus
himself in the sermon on the mount, ant
elsewhere in the New Testament.

Mr.. Blaine Dependent.

New York, Aug. ia special from
Washington to the Sun paints gloomy
picture of Mr.. Blaine's mental condition,
and its effect upon the campaign. 1t
says:
Mr.. Blaine is causing those who are
managing his canvass no little anxiety.
He is no longer the iashing and andaci-
GUS plumed knight of lS76-he is chan
ged man. Though always the most eau
tiOus and secretive of men, he used to
conceal these traits by an assumption of
dash and pluck that was most artistic as
well as a long sustained piece of acting.
Now, however, his friends find that the
brilliant aggressiveness is gone. He
seems to be not only timid, but almost
in lifferent. He simply urges his friends
to go on with the canvas in their own
way, and let him be at peace, so far As
possible. 1t has been an open secret
among Mr.. Blaine's close friends that he
has never recovered from the shock that
Guiteau's pistol caused him; he
was arm-in-arm with President Garfield
when the assassin fired. He saw the
president totter and fall, and believed
that the next shot would be received by
himself. The effect of that shot was to
give him what is known IN his own state
as ''the hypos." He is convinced that
he has an organic disease, and although
the best physicians in the country have
assured him that he is wrong, he will not
believe them. During the past winter
when he was visited by prominent poll
ticians who wished to talk with him
about his nomination, he surprised and
saddened them by his indifference, and
he told one man that he would rather
live in quiet than to be president and
die in the Office. For few days before
the convention met he seemed to be like
his old sell, and after he was nominated
displayed to those nearest him some of
the energy that was characteristic of him
in the days Of his prime. But that did
not last long After the Democratic con-
vention the old conviction that he can
not be elected returned, and with it his
depression of spirits. He is now said to
be respondent, and those nearest him be-
lieve that unless this hypochondria can
be shaken of, all the work of the can
vass must be in vain.

There is no part Of Montana where
better roads could be had for small
outlay than in the Gallatin Valley, but
candor compels us to admit that they are
execrable. Stones lie in the roads in
many places, which few moments labor
would remove. Irrigating bitches cross
them in many places, having cut out to
some depth, and it is at risk Of breaking
your buggy or your neck that you cross
them. Now is good time to fix them.

Hope" yonr lady correspondent, will
do well to think of this hope, and think
if it is better than Ingersol's, that death
ends all !; better to sink into the uncon-
scious sleep of nature, one and all, than
that one poor soul should suffer the tor
lures of endless pain-to burn, to suffer
eternal horrible thought! that has filled
our breasts with fear and our asylums
with lunatics, but woman-like, true to her
history has ever been the pillar of the
church. Had it not been for woman the
Christian church would have died before
the days of Constantine and the world
would have besn saved the horrors of a
thousand years of torture, that made the
midnight skys of all Europe red with the
glare of burning heretics, al d drenched
the ground with human blood; that
made the horrors of Auto-de-fa possible.
Again it was that book, the Bible. that
placed the ban of inferiorty upon woman
that said she should not lead nor speak
in public, that book commands her
to submit to the will of her husband,
that commands the husband to kill his
wife if she worship any other God than
the one he worships, Q2 CHIP. Deute.
ronomy) Yet, in spite of all these facts,
she still upholds the church, while it is
the great free-thought party that are
steadily fighting for woman's rights, that
are in favor of woman being allowed all
the rights, politically, that man enjoys,
of which Colonel Ingersoll is the leading
champion.
Now, few words more, and will
close this, now too long, letter. Colonel
Tngesroll is acknowledged to be the
finest orator living to-day-to stand at
Spirit of the age. [volume] (Woodstock, Vt.) 1845-1913, 1884-03-26
