ed by the grand jury in retereuce to

Railroad Commission.

Tie Nashville World lays much
stress upon the fact that other states
have railroad commissions, and ur-
gently argues that this fact makes
such a condition Of absolute necessi-
ty in Tennessee. Time and again
has it pointed Its argument by refer
ence to the Kintucky commission,
formed for the purpose Of regulating
the peoples great enemy" the
Louisville, Nashville & Great South
ern railway, which has done so much
to enrich and improve and develop
Kentucky resources. 1t was wont
t. roll as Il sweet morsel that the ex-
istence Of :his Kentucky commission
had been since 1879-fve long years
and impressed upon its readers that
Tennessee should not continue to
finger in the rear Of virtuous and
saving railroad regulation. But why
is it that this paper has never men
toned the fact that Kentucky IS sick
OF her railroad commission an d that a
bill has passed the state senate by a
vote of 20 to7, to dispense with the
servicee of the commissioners Why
does not this paper inform its readers
that the people of Kentucl have
grown so tired and disguised with
the war upon railroad that their rep
resentatIves have not only taken steps
to annul the railroad commission act,
but so recognized the necessity Of
railroad building and development
that they have actually enacted
law which exempts all new roads
form taxation for a term of five
years? Why does not the World
place these facts before its readers,
and permit them to see what people
think of railroad commissions who
have had five years experience
with one? Let your light so shine,
neighbor, that misrepresentation and
mistake and deception may not oc-
cur. BE fair and honest with your
readers. Nashville Banner, May Is,

Tweedledee or Tweedledum.

The few remarks following are moi
intended to be construed as retrac-
ton Of any statement, In last weeks
TINES, TO the effect that Mr.. SHARP
sought TO make the Republican candi
date out as liar and thief. His
entire address was burdened with bit
ter and unkind denunciation Of james
IG. Blaine and the Republican party.
In drawing q comparison between the
two candidates he said NOW, my
good people, which do you prefer, this
man (Cleveland)or thief and liarp"
The Democrats admit that he said,
"which do you prefer, thief or IN
honest manp" As for us, we have no
desire TO misquote Mr.. Sharp and are
perfectly willing to substitute the Dem.
oratic version for ours Of last week,
but, our opinion Is that the case Is NOT
bettered In tho least so far as Mr..
Sharp Is concerned. He intended his
audience TO understand that he regard
cd Blaine ~ o thief and q liar, and thai
Is all we ever thought Of charging him
With. So far as the statements ore
concerned we had Just as soon say
tweedledee as tweedledum, II our Dem.

ton out of-one than the other. --Lorais

JoHNsoN's explanation Of the bottom
facts in the Hinckley case, when boiled
down, is as follows: -
Terrill and his daughter both swora
that he had seduced the latter. Hinck.
ley denied 1t. Terrill threatened to sue
him for slander. Metcalf and johnson
hastened to pay him $500 to prevent
the suit.
If any specializing fathers in the vi.
cinity Of Elyria make. a similar charge
against any Of the bright boys Of Well
ington, they are not going to deny 1t.
But what imprudent fellows johnson
and Metcalf must be! They signed
Hinckley's bond-a thousand-dollar
bond-his wife put $1,000 into their
hands to secure them. They paid the
whole thousand dollars to settle a
threatened civil suit, with no sort Of
arrangement or understanding that the
criminal suit was to be stopped.
Ii Nye had pushed the case, as it was
his duty to do, the bond would have
been forfeited and they would have
been thousand dollars out Of pocket
with nothing in the world to secure
them. However, we understand tina,
Metcalf says he "ain't fool enough to
take such position as that"
Metcalf s version Of the case in this
issue is more reasonable.

A COMPARISON OF TERRILL's AT.
FIDAVITS.

MIR. A. r. Webber has been fairly and
squarely nominated as candidate for
prosecuting attorney. He has been well
known throughout the county for sew
eral years as an upright, worthy, pains
taking young attorney, and he is uni
versally recognized, by all parties, as
thoroughly competent to perform salts
factorily the duties Of the Office for
which he has been nominated.
1t is now claimed by the "bolters"
that Mr.. Weber was engaged with
other counsel in the settlement Of the
Hinckley case, and that he has sworn
falsely in his affidavit wherein he de.
clares that he had no knowledge Of the
terms Of that settlement and was In no
way responsible for 1t. Now, we con.
slider that in our last issue every parti.
Gle and shred Of evidence connecting
Webber with said settlement was en-.
tirely and conclusively disposed Of, un.
less 1t be the testimony Of Mr.. Terrill,
the father of the girl. whom Hinckley
was accused Of seducing.
In order to place before our readers
the monstrous conduct Of this man,
and to expose the utter and irreconcil-
able inconsistencies Of his various affi.
davits, we give the following history Of
his connection with said case.
1t will be remembered that Hinckley
was teacher and Miss Terrill his pu.
pill. Terrpl became suspicious that
criminal relations were existing between
Hinckley and his daughter, and pro.
curing the assistance Of neighbors, this
high-minded (P) father proceeded to
watch the supposed guilty pair. AS a
result Of this espionage Hinckley and
Miss Terrill were discovered alone in a
school-house on June IL, 1882, under
circumstances Seemed suspicious. This
disc covery was referred to by the cor.
respondent Of the Elyria Republican
and published in the issue Of that paper
dated June ~, 1882, and was referred
to as occurring ''last Monday but as
the affidavit a on which Hinckloy
was arrested was dated bn june
II, and as the proof at the ex-
animation corroborates this, the letter,
which was without date, was evidently
written during the latter part Of the
week Of the discovery referred TO, and
publication therefore necessarily de-
layed until the following week. Now
bear in mind that Hinckley's school had
closed before the discovery above
mentioned, and further that Hinckley
could not be arrested criminally unless
the onense Of which he was accused
was committed while he and Miss Ter
rill sustained the relation Of teacher and
pupil, and hence that there was abso-
lutely no evidence upon which to arrest
Hinckley, except the testimony Of the
daughter. VIZ p" '''-' ~
And yet, Terrill in his affidavit, pub
J llshed in "A Fair Hearing" says: ~
