The lecture to be delivered by Gen. Lew
Wallace at Plymouth Congregational Church
tonight should be largely attended. In the
first place, the lecturer himself is easily the
most distinguished man in literature Indiana

reputation by greeting him with a worthy re-

THE strikers on the Missouri Pacific rail
way have not a leg to stand on. The strike is
utterly causeless, and all the tom-fool rhetor-

board or the Martin Irons crowd will not
change the facts. The only decent and law
full thing to do is to declare the strike off, ac-
knowledge the error committed, and rely upon
public justice to compel the railway to observe
its agreements in the future. Messrs. Tur-
ner, Bailey and Hayes have shown themselves
only less foolish and dangerous than Irons.

THE Western Christian Advocate is moved
to remark:
"We have not seen in the papers Of the
South, even the most pious Of them. such de-
nunciations as re had reason to expect of the
courthouse massacre at Carrollton. 1t was
the most outrageous crime of the month, for
it was not merely murder by wholesale, but
was murder in a court of so-called justice, and
while the alleged offenses of the men who
were murdered were under investigation. If
the religious press Of the South is silent now,
the country will be forced to believe that the
conscience of that section is still in chains.
To be dumb in the presence Of such a crime is
to exhibit moral insensibility or cowardice."
