The legislature of Connecticut has
just passed a law rendering it lawful
for infidels to testify in the courts. To
the Bostonese mind, expressed by a
city journal, "this privilege will not be
of much value to the unbelieving dogs,
since, as the newspapers of the state
remark, Christian jurymen and Chris
tian judges will take their testimony
for what they think it is worth. And
this, of course, is just nothing at all;
for it is utterly absurd and unreason-
able to suppose that the word of Deist
or Agnostic, Jew or Mohammedan.
Buddhist or Fire Worshipper, of any
body but a Christian indeed, as worth
anything whatever. They are all sure
to be everlastingly damned in the next
world, and the fewer privileges they
have in this the better

AN EXPLANATION THAT EXPLAINS.

In THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE of April %
appeared an editorial paragraph in which
was given paragraph clipped from the New
York Herald, attributing TO Senators Ed
munds and Hoar the utterance, while the
Senate was in secret session, of very remark
able sentiments. They were reported to have
said that q the soldier business was about
played out, and that no one but demagogs
attempted any longer to make political capi-
tai by appealing to the soldier element" and
" the Grand Army of the Republic had be-
come as dangerous an institution as the
Knights Of Labor, and, as a political ma
chine, kept in a state Of terrorism men who
were not willing to vote all the money in
the Treasury for pensions"
Inquiry develops the fact that the article
in the Herald was entirely and designedly
misleading. Neither Mr.. Edmunds nor Mr..
Hoar said anything that could be construed
to have any such meaning. The Herald was
engaged in crusade against secret Execu-
tive sessions, and in order to make them
appear ridiculous the Washington cOrre-
spondents of that paper invented purely
fictitious speeches, generally the very reverse
of what Senators did say or would have
said, and these were published as actual ut
terances.
The Herald did this for week, making
many of the Senators appear in a very pre-
posterous light. Edmunds and Hoar were
two of the victims Of this by no means
creditable style of journalism.
