A Testimonial TO Mr.. T. III. Adams.
WEST POINT, VA, April /, 1890,

WEST PoINT, VA, April /, 1890.
To Ne Editor Of he Dispatch:
Mr.. ?. II. Adams, formerly general claim
and acknowledgement of the Richmond and
Danville Railroad Company at West Point,
was to-day presented with very handsome
watch and chain 10y his former employees.
The watch is of Swiss manufacture andhas
the monogram "P. III. A." on one case, and
the year 1890 on the other. The inner case
bears the inscription
" Presented TO p. II. Adams bylIe Employees OF
The Il. and D. Il. r., West Point, Vd.,
March, 1890"
A committee called at the residence of
Mr.. Adams. and the spokesman, Dir. G. Ii.
Hart, in brief speech expressed the esteem
and appreciation of his former employees for
his uniform kindness and courtesy towards
them.
Mr.. Adams replied that while ne thanked
them for this expression of their regard,
yet it needed nothing to convince him of
their kindly feelings for him. The occa-
sion was complete surprise for MIR. Adams,
and shows the popular feeling toward him.
Mr.. Adams has endeared himself to all his
old employees, and the affection and good
will felt for him is unbOunded. His I'M
questioned ability, tirmness, and courtesy
will insure his success in any undertaking,
and he will always carry with him the best
wishes of every man who ever worked
under him. Is.

"It is lawful to deceive the enemy; to
mutilate, to kill, and to destry."
The s'hired Hessians" and purchased
mercenaries of the Republican party are
at their hellish work, with the deadly
infection of the Upas tree of Ingallism,
trying to poison the minds of the voters
of this state, by pouring out the poison
of falsehood and perjury through the
columns of the Republican papers of the
state, in the attacks made upon the
standard bearer of the Peoples party,
John F. Willis.
Friends of the People! please pause
and consider, that these attacks are all
made by men who bklong to the Repub-
lican party that has Endorsed the accurs-
ed doctrine of John j. ingalls,, which
we quote above, by the Endorsement Of
the said Ingalls, for reelection to the
United States senate.
Remember that this party is seeking
to retain place and power 10 cover up
years of official theft and plundering Of
the people, with a total disregard of all
truth, morality and purity, to purchase
their continuance i'm Office with the gold
of monopoly that has been stolen from
honest industry, and which Is now being
dealt out with such lavish hand by In
gals and his hired Hessians and merce-
naries, in the attempt to defeat the PeO-
pies party i'm the present campaign i'm
this state.
Be on your guard, friends, for the
, , minds of honest men can not conceive
of the hellish depths to which the old
politicians will descend in their desper-
alton. Two years ago the Republican
League at secret meeting, of one OF
the central counties of Kansas, deter
mined to arrest the leaders Of the OppO-
sition, on trumped-up charges the night
before election, and keep them confined
till after election, but one OF the weak
kneed brothers gave the plot away, and
when they found that their plan had be-
come known they gave it up.
Be prepared to act with frmness and
resolution, in any emergency that may
come up, for we may expect that all
that hellish ingenuity and depravity can
suggest will be used to defeat the will
of the people, 10 retain the rule Of the
thieves and monopOlsts. S. w. CHASE,
Chairman Peoples Party State Central
Committee.

READ THIS LETTER!
1t VIII Show to what Depths Of
PeF1ldy tho Republican Party
VIII Descend I'm order to
Obtain its Ends.

The Oskaloosa Independent of last
week came to us with several columns
of stuff to try to prove that j. F. Will
Its. Peoples candidate for governor,
had cheated his sister. This matter has
been prepared by the Republican state
committee ana furnished to Republican
papers to be issued as supplements.
This is great scheme to scare the peO-
pie. But read Mr.. Willis statement in
the matter.
HIS STATEMENT.
From the time that the Peoples Party
conferred upon me the high honor Of
making me their nominee for governor,
have been very busy, both night and
day, trying in my humble way to assist
the people in their struggle with the old
ring OF politicians. 1t seems that the
opposition, instead of discussing the liv-
ing issues now agitating the minds Of
the people, have resorted to malicious
attempt to prejudice the people by an
attempt upon me through the columns
of the Republican press. They have
spread broadcast certain statements in
regard to my family affairs, not even
content to let my dead father rest in
peace. There were in all seven children
lett by my father when he departed this
life. He made his home with me dur
ing the last years of his life, and he left
a very small estate. This estate was
settled to the entire satisfaction of all
the children with the exception of a
half sister, who commenced civil ac-
ton in the district court of Jefferson
county. The pretended record of evil
dence published IS HER PETITION, drawn
by her lawyer, but MY ANSWER was not
published. After trial the jury did
render a verdict in her favor for a small
amount, which 1 paid.
In regard to the last sickness of my
father: He died with the malaral fever
after an illness of about four weeks.
DR.. Balsley attended him in his sickness
and charged $500 per visit, as we lived
six miles in the country.
Does it look reasonable that the doc
tor would charge only $3.50 for five Wis
its and then give a receipt for $40? My
wife and myself nursed my father in
his last sickness, and Mrs. Lincicum
did not nurse or care for him. Her
husband, Wesley Lincicum, at the time
of my fathers death was living on my
place. have given this Lincicum fam
lily all the assistance in my power, and
procured him situation as guard at the
penitentiary, at my own expense.
The entire settlement of the estate
WAS attended to by Keepler & Gephart,
my attorneys. Everything was done by

Wuot ~ w 90 tuUU &oVO w
Christ moral right to breathe the
prayer, "Our Father who art in Heav-
EN-, give us this day our daily bread"?
What but the fact that he had hon
ored the Divine order for human life
by going through the field of physical
labor OH his way to the spiritual vine
yard. Suppose that instead of going
through Gods physical field, he had
run through college halls to get into
the spiritual vineyard as the clergy
do? What would his prayer for dali
ly bread have amounted to but this ?
IL would either have been asking God
to work miracle to "create" for him
the bread that he had been too indO-
lent to "create" for himself through
physical labor, or else it would have
been asking his Father to take the
bread away from some laborer who
had "created" it through physical la
Dor, and give it to him; and what
have clerical prayers for "daily bread"
all through the ages amounted to but
just this? And they have taken good
care to answer their own prayers for,
"hand in glove" with kings, who like
themselves have assumed to speak
with Divine authority, they have
completely changed the Divine order.
They have separated that which God
hath joined together" viz: physical
labor and bread. They have 'joined
together" that which God had sepa-
rated, viz physical idleness and bread.
For themselves they have appointed
physical idleness and bread; for the
laborer they have appointed physical
labor and starvation. For themselves
bread, balances physical idleness for
the laborer starvation balances physi-
cal labor. Thus have they changed
the Divine order.
There is a physical as well as
moral salvation, and the world must
first be "saved" with physical "sal-
vation," "saved" from cold and hum
ger, and nakedness before it can be
saved with moral salvation.
In what other sense than as repre-
sentative laborer could it have been
said of Christ, that He was oppressed
and he was afflicted, yet he opened
not his mouth; he is brought as a
lamb to the slaughter, and as sheep
before her shearers is dumb, SO he
openeth not his mouth" Might it
not have been said of the laborer all
through the ages, "He was oppressed,
and he was afflicted, yet he opened
not his mouth; he is brought as a
lamb to the slaughter, and as sheep
before her shearers is dumb, so he
openeth not his mouth ?" "Dumb,"
and hence unable to speak for him
self, he has had none to speak for him.
The clergy, those "laborers"in Gods
spiritual vineyard, have ever been
ready enough to speak for themselves /;
but whenever have they said to the
world, sour brother, the laborer IN
Gods physical field, is worthy of his
hire, too, and like us his clerical breth
rem, he needs an increase of his salary
