"TELE THE TRUTH

4
When the seurrilous stories were
started about Gov. Cleveland it
looked so serious for his honor that
friends were amazed and they tsles
graphed him to know how to meet
them. He answered instantly !:
"Tell the truth" When Blaine's
corruption was about to be unearth-
ed he got upon his knees to Multi
gan and begged him in tears to sup
press the letters, and then stole
them and refused to deliver them
up on an order ofthe House. What
q difference If Cleveland was
guilty of an indiscretion the facts
show he made all possible repara-
ton, and now ''let him who is with
out sin cast the first stone" What
noble words those: @Tell the
Truth I" How many men of us
with the moral courage to dare to
face the truth when such momen-
tous consequences are imminent I?
1t shows a man of sublime attri-
butes, and then we have his whole
life and public acts to intensely cor
roborate this estimate of the man.

MORE RAILROADS AND LESS COM
MISSION NONSENSE.
Lebanon Herald

If the gentlemen (few in number)
who are trying to renew the war
upon railroads, were to tell us plain
ly that they are looking for the
loaves and fishes, in the shape of q
few useless offices, we could under
stand what they mean. That they
mean anything else, we cannot be-
heve. The railway commission
business in Tennessee is n failure.
The courts have so decreed, and any
attempt to revive the question will
only result in another failure. The
roads of Tennessee have vested
rights, which cannot be taken from
them. They are collecting now
much less tariff rates from the peo-
pie than their chartered rights ais
low them, and any attempt to com
pei further reduction, through a
commission or otherwise, will prove
a failure, resulting only in further
expense to tho state for salaries, etc,
to commissioners, which the people
do not want. They want more
railroads, and no more commission
nonsense.

To the Editor Of the AIOrristoWn Gazette:
The time is at hand when many
of your readers will prepare for, and
will pitch their principal money
crop for 1SS5-their wheat crop.
Not one of these ought to SOW a
grain of wheat unless he expects
thereby to receive at least a fair re-
turn for his labor, over and above a
fair rent for his land
Every wheat sower ought there
fore to have in view several facts.
and to make his calculations, based
on these facts. beg to call stten-
ton to n few Of these facts. And,
first. the price of wheat raised in
East Tennessee is controlled by the
price in Europe. The price in Eu
rope depends upon the accessible
surplus of the world.
Second, in 1882 Western Europe
received from India less than twelve
millions of bushels in 1888, over
thirty-six millions of bushels in
1884, the amount will largely ex-
coed fifty millions of bushels. And
the wheat area exists in India to
produce many hundreds of millions
of bushels of surplus, and only
awaits the building of railroad lines
which are in rapid progress, to be
poured out on the markets of West
ern Europe.
Third, this Indian wheat is pres
duced at a cost Of less than fifty
cents per bushel.
Fourth, this wheat is as near to
our market as our wheat.
All this means that the day of
high prices for American wheat has
gone. 1t will be long before one
dollar will be paid for wheat in Nor
ristown.
Fifth, the average crop Of wheat

MR. BLAINE AND THE MEXICAN
VETERANS.

In alste number Of the Washington

effective statement of the reasons
that impel him to oppose Mr.. Blaine.
He gives a resume of all attempts

Mexican war, and shows that ''the
people whs made political issue
OF the Mexican war pension were
Republican leaders from the outset
and their motives were transParent~
" designed to keep alive the pas
sions engendered by the civil war
for partisan purposes" He proves
that Mr.. Blaine, on the floor OF the
House and in the Speakers chair,
was always ready TO do his utmost
against the Mexican soldiers. Com
ing down to the last session of Con-
gress and to the Tewnshend bill,
which was loaded in the Senate COM

stroy it. the Tsdette states that GER

Gratis of the Senate to defeat those

position to pass by good majority
when the time arrived for the Re-

THE MURDERED HORIZONS. o
ELDER ROBERTS DISCUSSES HIMSELF
AND. DIsINTERs THE BODIES. 5i


NASHVILLE, August Elder
Roberts, the Mormon missionary
who last night shipped the bodies of
Elders Gibbs and Berry, who were.
murdered in Lewis county, to Utah,
will submit TO the Governor a full
statement of the facts connected
with the tragedy. After receiving
this document, the Governor will
offer reward for the arrest and
conviction of the men concerned in
the affair. Elder Roberts says he
disguised himself and, accompanied
by two men, went 10 Lewis county
and disinterred the bodies, meeting
with no trouble whatever. He did
not examine the remains, and talked
to but few people. He says the au-
thorities are doing nothing toward
bringing the murderers to justice.
He said that Elders Gibbs and
Jones had been working in the va
rious counties of West Tennessee
and Mississippi, and in the villages
and towns had called upon the may
ors and county officials and secured
permission to advocate their cause
in public halls and churches He
does not know whether the Nor
mons will continue to laborin Lewis
and Hickman counties, as he has
not received any Communication
from the Church authorities at Salt
Lake. They will continue, how
ever, to work ia other parts of the
State, he says, not 80 much in the
interest of proselytism as to present
the true condition of affairs in Utah.
A letter from citizen of Lewis
county says 1t would be difficult to
convince the citizens of Lewis
county that the attacking party in
tended to kill anyone. They say
they simply intended TO drive cut
of the county the Mormons who
were preaching to the most illiterate
people, and had already made sew
eral converts. The letter further
says that two years ago Elder Gibbs
came into Lewis county from Utah,
claiming to be sent by God. He
preached almost exclusively to the
people at the head of Cane Greek,
and succeeded I'm making some cons
verts. He always advocated polyg-
amy. Occasionally there would be
q scandalous report about him.
" The people, says the latter, do
not seek t. yindicate the actien of
the mob, but insist on the true
causes of the killing being made
known s
