Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1885-03-04

The Journal appears to be SO badly
demoralized by its encounter with the
ARGUS, that it has to drag an alder
man into the dispute, seeming to be
under the impression that anything is
good enough to hide itself behind
Now we can not see what a private
law suit between the publisher of the
ARGUS and an alderman has to dc
with the dispute between the ARGUS
and the Saturday sheet. The Jour.
nal has frequently introduced persons
into the dispute who have nothing to
do with the question, and being some
what demolished by the ARGUS shots,
and, also, apparently having nearly
exhausted its supply of filth, it now
threatens personal warfare on all
connected with the ARGUS. If it de-
sires warfare of personalities, let it
go ahead. 1t must commence it.
We regret that the Journal has
dragged the private matters of an al
derman into the dispute. Even in so
doing it could not tell the truth about
the affair, and if any person is de-
sirous of seeing how the Journal will
fully lied, all he has to do is to con-
suit the docket of the Justice Of the
Peace who tried the suit, and there
sec that the court thought the claim
of the ARGUS so just that a judgment
against said alderman for $1,000 dam.
ages and 1888 costs, making the to-
tai amount of the judgment 1888
was rendered in the suit. The
said alderman took the ARGUS as
long as he could get it, and as the
amount due was not paid, his name
was stricken from the ARGUS subscrip-
ton list. We could give the details
in regard to this question, but we do
not believe the public are interested
in such little private matters, and only
notice it to show how the Journal lied
in its remarks about the matter. The
Journals article is libel on the
court.
This dragging in of private matters
seems an admission by the Journal
that it has been fairly routed and that
its attack on the ARGUS has proved a
failure. 1t tries to cover its retreat
by Singing personalities and hiding
behind an alderman. Yet it is not
surprising that the Journal, which
betrayed its supporters, deserted from
its party, bartered away its principles
and openly gloried in the mangling
of number of laboring men and
their wives and children, should also
be accomplished in lying.
An associated press dispatch has the
following to say:
LONDON, February 20.-The Roman Catholic
Bishop OF Shrewsbury has issued vigorous pas
toral letter Ia which he denounced the dynamitcrs
as pests, scourges, enemies of God and man and
assassins striking in the dark. The Bishop warns
the Catholics that they will incur the penalty Of be-
ing denied the holy sacraments Of the church and
be debnrred from all hopes Of future salvation II
they join these emissaries Of Satan.

MRS. WENTWORTH,
And Her Charge Against the
PERFECTIONISTS.

Last week we published a statement
in regard to the Perfectionists, at the
request of a leading member of the
society in this city, and we also stated
that as the article seemed to accuse
Mrs. Wentworth of being crazy, that
it was but just that her statements,
as given by her in Chicago divorce
court, should also be given. SO that
the reader could read both sides. The
evidence as given by the Chicago
Daily News, of January 9th, is as
follows: ~
Judge Tulcy had just taken his seat in
the Circuit Court this morning when up
stepped Mrs. Laura NJ. Wentworth, and, by
her attorney, moved to have decree Of
divorce issued to her, severing her mar
riage with Sidney I. Wentworth, printer

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND
AND
Vice-PreSident Hendricks
Take Possession of Their Offices to-
Day.

To-day the Democratic candidate,
for the offices of President and Vice
President will be inaugurated, and
President Cleveland will enter OH his
duties with the business of the coun,
try in disastrous condition with hun.
dreds of thousands of men out OF
employment; with hard times; with
trade stagnant, and the country full
of misery and disorder. The Repub-
licans, after ruling the country for "a
years, leave to Cleveland and his as
sistants terrible legacy. They leave
behind them the business of the coun-
try in a ruinous condition and the
people clamoring for bread.
1t is great task that the Repub-
lican party leaves to President Cleve-
land and his officials. They have to
restore trade, to set the business ma
chinery in running order, to find the
people with work, to bring about bet
ter times, to shake the depression off
of business, to relieve the people of
some of the load of taxation, to clean
the public offices, and to run the gov
eminent of the people, for the people
and by the people. If they succeed
in their great task, the people will not
forget them four years from now.
We believe that President Cleveland
and his officers will give the people
a good government, and an honest
and an economical one. Every citi-
zen whether he is Democrat or Re-
publican, hopes that such will be the
result. We do not believe that Cleve-
lands elevation TO the Presidency
means just merely a turning out of all
the Republican Office holders. We
believe that the only ones discharged
will be those who have neglected their
duties and not done the work they
were paid by the people to do. We
believe many Republicans in office,
who have done their duty to the peo-
pie will retain their offices until the
time for which they were appointed
ends, whether it be one or four years.
The only changes, we think, besides
inefficient officers, will be in the heads
Of the various departments, and the
representative of the United States
in other countries. President Cleve-
land is committed to civil service re-
form. Some $4,000 of the offices are
filed under the civil service act. Va
cancies are filled by applicants who
have to pass an examination, in which
the question as to whether the appli.
cant is Democrat or Republican is
never asked. The person who passes
the best examination gets the vacant
office. AS regards postmasters, when
vacancies occur they will be filled
with Democrats, as the civil service
act has nothing to do with them.
The postmaster of this city, will, we
believe. hold his office until his time
expires next January.

Democratic Convention.

The Democratic State Convention

day. nominated Allen b. Morse rs
their candidate for the Supreme
Court, and Charles r. Whitman, for
Regent of the University. The
Greenback State convention met at
Lansing the same day and nominated
Moses w. Field for Regent of the
University. The three candidates
were then endorsed by both conven-
tions. Moses w. Field is we'll known,
and It is needless for us to say any
thing, except that we believe he will
receive the cordial support of the
Michigan Democrats. Regarding the
other two candidates, the Free Press

ton the Rev. George Schwcinfurth, minis.
ter of the Gospel of Jesus Christ of the
Church of the First Born, of the Redeemed
in Heaven and Glori6ed Upon Earth, which
is the full ecclesiastical title of this sect,
which now number about SO. The occasion
for bringing this sect into the public gaze
is the suit of Mrs. Laura M. Wentworth
against Sidney T. Wentworth for divorce
on the grounds of desertion, cruelty and
adultery. Mrs. Wentworth was a Miss
Clark before her marriage. She charges
her husband with having failed to support
her, with having drawn revolver upon her,
and with having violated the marriage vow
taken March 9th, 1882, before Justice
Edward Fisher. She claims that he gave
away groceries to Brother and Sister Gran
dy and Brother and Sister Woodin, and in
vited them to live with them in their three
rooms. She herself was out of the fold,
and consequently her husband spent his
nights with the four members of the Church
of the First-Born, who alllslept in the same
room on mattresses spread on the floor.
She said that she had heard the sounds
which convinced her that her husband was
not true to her, and she said "Oh," which
Immediately caused a cessation. She testi-
fies that when you. enter the Jesus life
there is no law as regards marriage" This
morning, instead Of allowing a default, the
husband came into court and made answer,
not under oath, but affirmed, as the Church
of the First-Born, the Redeemed in Heaven
and the Glorifed on Earth, does not allow
legal oaths. He denied in toto the charges
brought against him by his wife. She over
ruled her own lawyer and testified at great
length concerning the depraved religious
enthusiasm of this sect. She is an intelli-
gent-looking woman Of about o. and but
