Knoxville, March, 2S.-The Ctronicl
to-day publishes the following sensa
tional story from Granger county, Eas
Tennessee;
A most sensational story comes from
tie methodical and steady-going county
OF Granger. Visitors to this city from
that section, yesterday, were full Of the
subject and stated that the entire county
aud section were scaudaliZed by one OF
the most atrocious attempts at pu0llc rob-
berry ever known i'm local annals.
At the last county election, among otner
county officials, MIR. j. II. Justis, one OF
the best known men in the county, who
was about 50 years OF age, was elected 10
the position of County Trustee. MT. jus
lis was Thought OF and recognized as a
man OF sterling integrity, aud one whose
word was as good as his bond. His term
was to expire THIS fan, and every detail in
the routine OF his office seemed to be
working with regularity.
Last Wednesday he came to his home,
at Spring House post office, Granger
county, and told his wife that he had
brought TO the house $4,000 OF the county
funds, and cautioned her not TO allow any
strangers, nor even any neigh bors, to
stop over night at the house since he
must needs be absent that night. He al
once went OF, and during the course Of
the afternoon a little peddler came along
and asked Mrs. Justis to accommodate
blm for the night. He had frequently
been through that section before, and al
Ter some little hesitation the lady OF the
house concluded to entertain him as
usual. He brought in his pack, and at
bedtime retired, as was bis wont.
About midnight or shortly after, the
peddler was awakened by a slight noise
in the house. On listening he realized
that steaithy footsteps were making their
way through the rooms, and after watch
ing and waiting a short time he discover
ed that a large black man was attempting
10 open depository where valuables in
the family were kept. He soon accOsted
the intruder, and melee ensued between
them, which ended in the killing Of the
woUld-be robber by the peddler. On
washing the corpse. and preparing it for
burial, it was discovered That the victim
was Justis himself, who had attempted to
commit this robbery on his county at his
D Tn home.
Excitement in that section is rife over
the matter, and additional developments
are aDXiOusly awaited.

A Whit from the Register too.

In another column we republlsh
brisk Prohibition breeze from the
Intelsiqsncer. Here is a lively Whit
from the Register also. 1t is very
comforting to have the friends OF
the license system to tell us occa-
sionally how mean, contemplate,
dastardly and corrupt the abomlna-
BILE thing is that they want the
law to sanction and the State to
have partnership in.
But here's what the Register
says:
mayor Grub, in his message,
very properly calls attention to the
loose manner in which Council
has often proceeded in granting Ii
censes. It has been too much the
custom in Wheeling for Council to
grant licenses to Tom, Dick and
Harry, and everybody else who
could pay the required fees and get
signatures upon their bonds. Great
abuses have often sprung up from
this neglect.
This matter is in the power of
Council. While the course they
have been taking has brought
more money into the city treasury
from licenses granted, yet dens
have been made possible that have
in their evil effects more than over
balanced the direct benefits derived
from license fees. Resorts have
been made in which crime could
be fostered as in hotbeds, and
growing criminal class is the result.
Such class, as all know, is very
undesirable and Improbable one,
at any price. x x
Council would do we'll to think
over the Mayors suggestions, and
withhold all licenses where there
are doubts as to the character of
applicants. Men who persist in
violating the ordinances of the city
should forfeit their licenses. If
more attention was paid to this
matter, the moral tone of our city
would likely in the future be much
improved"

could stop to inquire how this
blessed Christian endeavor of these
noble women might possibly affect
this or that grovelimg political party !
May the Lord pity and save such
an infnitesimal little soul-if there
be enough of it to save!
And yet, as these devoted, sacrlf-
cling, toiIiag, agonisimg women are
out in the midst of this woeful har-
vost of iniquity, sown and grown
by the Liquor Trafic-as they
plead and pray with the victim
drinker, comfort the bereaved, feed
and clothe the orphaned, counsel
and caution young manhood, and
WOO and win young girlhood from
this way Of death, and gather the
children into sheltering Bands of
Hope, seeking by all means, if pos
sible, to save some-and yet, we
say, if even in these extreme
straights and circumstances, worn
down with anxiety and toll, and
borne down under the weight of
the terrible woes upon them and
all about them-if these women,
desperate in their intense longing
and praying, clinging still to their
unfailing faith in Him they serve,
should haply catch at CLEAN of
hope and breathe the prayer, "God
bless ANY party that will bring relief
to our loved ones and protect our
homes P there are said to be men so
immeasurably small and mean as
to charge these their own wives
and mothers with political treason,
and block and hinder their blessed
work of salvation, because forsooth,
they imagine their efforts for hui
manity may in some way hurt
their party May the Lord haze
mercy on their miserably mean little
souls!
