TELL THE TRUTH"

We are in receipt of the published result
Of the investigation of the stories about the
private life of Grover Cleveland. made by a
committee Of clergymen in the city Of Bufia-
10, which action arose from the charge made
by the mugwumps that the story of Rev.
Ball was untrue, and that Ball had no par;ic-
ular standing We cannot attempt publish
ing the pamphlet. There is ne call for lis
publication in Republican Kansas. But the
story of Maria Halpin has never been hall
told. She was an innocent. trusting wo-
man, who was seduced by Grover Cleve-
land, whom she expected to marry. But
Mrs. Halpin's is only one case. Some ofthe
Others could only be equalled BY the Texas
cowboy in Wichita, before Wichita made
any pre:ensions TO morality. Thirty
Ministers pronounce Grover Cleveland
of habitual unchasiity. His rooms in the
third story of business block have wit
messed some terrible dehauches, We said
Maria Halpin was not the only one The
pamphlet gives ten Others and says that
there are more if wanted. The evidence is
all in hand and none but the testimony Of
reliable witnesses was accepted. Still and
Notwithstanding we have such hypocrites as
George William Curtis declaring day afte T
day, and insulting the ministers of this
country, with hi pamphlets, which also de-
clares chat ''this is a campaign of morals
and not politics" and Cleveland is the leper
whom he sets up as standard for morals

GOOD DOSE.

4 prominent citizen received on Monday
by mail, from Geo. W. Curtis, Geo. w.
Green and Geo. w. Folsom, the national
committee of Independents, generally known
as the dude and mugwump combination, a
package of pamphlets devoted to the abuse
of Blaine and Logan and the praise Of Cleve-
land and Hendricks. With these pamphlets
was received a blank pledge which the said
citizen was solicited to sign and return to
the mugwump crowd and which reads:
Believing that the interests of good gov
ernment and public morals demand the de-
feat of James 6. Blaine and the election of
Grover Cleveland. | desire to enroll myself
with other Republicans and Independents
who are cooperating with the committee
appointed at the conference of Republicans
and Independents held at New York, July

The aforesaid citizen uot being politi-
clan, not even a partisan, in fact man
whose name is never heard in connection
with politics, his answer is too good to be
lost. Having heard of the matter inciden-
tally, we solicited his full reply. To this he
would not consent, but the following ex-
tract is sufficient TO show the contempt that
all honorable men ought to entertain for
this sycophantic crew:
WICHITA, Kas., Oct. 90 1884.
! To Messrs Curtis, Green and Folsom, 81 Mas
! sau St, New York:
DEAR SIRs-The package of pamphlets
and blanks for signature sent to my address
| is at hand. | hasten TO say in reply that as
paramount moral issue | regard it as
! about the meanest piece of moral cowardlce
| and hypocrisy of which | have any knowl-
edge. To ask me to support Grover Cleye-
land in the interest OF public morals, is such
an insult to my common sense, and to my
sense of both private and public decency
that feel constrained to at once resent it.
In my judgment there is more real man
illness and moral integrity in the two men
YOU seek to dcfame, than in the whole sci
represented in the circulars you send to my
address. with Henry Ward Beecher thrown
in with the self righteous crowd, and | mus
confess that Blaine and Logan are not up tc
my ideal of statesmen and leaders. But i
before the receipt of your impudent over
lures ! had hesitated as to their support, i
can now entertain no doubt as to the duty
of true citizen to strive to prevent sucf
false pretenders as YOU from elevating {
common libertinc to the highest office in th'

JG. Mccoy. who travelled over the coun-
try two years ago and made prohibition
speeches, and who is now blowing his kazoo
for the tattooed ticket, made statement the
other night in Union township, that when
Sewers was elected probate judge he would
loan the money belonging to minors and
turn over all of the interest to them, intend
ing in making the statement that the infer
ence should be drawn that Jewett was pock-
citing the interest. He says Sewers told him
that he would do this. If this is svmple Of
the knowledge that Sewers has Of the duty
ofthe probate Judge the people ought to
know il.
The probate Judge is not authorized un-
der the law to handle any money belonging
to minors, or the estates of deceased per-
sons, and Jewett has never done so, and
this blathers kite and maligner Of character
might haze known it if he had any wish to
| be fair.
Jcwett has not only not handled the mon
ey belonging to minors, but he has Dor
rowed money over his own signature to
assist them in certain cases-and during his
official career no charge of any kind has
ever been preferred against him. He has
had business relations with many promi-
ncnt Democrats in this county, and none OF
them has ever thought for moment OF
preferring this kind of charge against him
and many of them are supporting him, SC
will have but little effect.

IN HOT WATER.

Judge Martin has locked horns with the
commissioners of Shawnee county at Tope-
ka over the question OF cmpannclinga grand
iurv. Martin is the most radical prohibi-
Zionist now in the state. Whether he is so
at heart or from policy time will determine.
In trials where men are accused of violating
one particular law he seems TO go to great
extremes. The result is that the prohibit
tionists are delighted; the liberals are non
plussed and the dealers are in hot water. A
grand jury comes next thing TO a vigilance
committee. its means for arriving At the truth

courts, and while it is expensive and some
times oppressive, it is more in the interest of
the letter than the spirit Of law, leading
rather to punishment than TO justice. The
fur will fly at Topeka within a few days and
we suspect that the Republican party will
suffer in the county Of Shawnee. II is Mar
tins opportunity. He would hardly have
called grand jury had the election been

A Hoosier Writes About Wichita.

The following correspondence We clip

stranger the writer sizes our city, county and
valley up in very good shape:
WICHITA, Has, Sept. 20, 1854.
DEAR REvEIILE-i have a few minutes to
spare before the train leaves for Kansas
City, and | will spend them giving your
readers my impressions of Wichita and
Sedgwick county. This is acknowledged by
every one to he the banner county of this
state, and this the best city west of Topeka.
Wichita is situated on the banks of the Ar
kansas and the Little Arkansas rivers, about
two hundred miles southwest of Kansas
CITY. \ magnificent iron wagon bridge and
several railroad bridges span the rivers.
This city contains $4,000 people. and | do
not cxagerate when | say the streets are as
full of people and vehicles as are the busiest
streets in Cincinnati. Where the people
come from is marvel Six railroads center
here and two more are being constructed.
There soon will be built a large union depot.
| The government will erect n new court
building and postotlicc in the near future.
| The United States courts are held here. This
| CITY mas gas ana water works, nre depart
ment, fine opera houses, street cars, skating
| Kinks, and everything that is found in larger
cities. The buildings generally are built of
brick, and would be a credit to Cincinnati.
Rents are enormously high. 1t would make
your head swip to hear the figures. Single
small rooms in dwelling houses, say l5xl5,
rent for SO or SIS month. Vacant lots
worth from $500 to $4,000 Land mile
from town 500 to $500 per acre. But good
land ten or twelve miles from Wichita can
be bought from $40 TO $50 per acre. Finely
improved farms from $40 to $50 per acre.
Fifteen years ago not a house stood here
There are upwards of 10000 people in thi.
county. There is scarcely a foot of waste
land here. The whole country is bottom
land. In my humble opinion, the rich Ohio
river bottom land, near Mr.. John Wright,
farm. does not surpass this in fertility
Such corn. wheat, watermelons, peaches, APP
piles. sweet and Irish potatoes, grow no.
where else as they do here.
There has never. | believe, been cyclon,
in this county. The climate this autumnal
weather surely surpasses that of Italy
