THOMAS PAINE.


To the Editor:
The subject of this letter was born
In Thetford, England, 16l years ago
He was endowed with gifts that made
him one of the most noted and alto
gether the most hated man of his time
Indeed, the hatred was not Inferred with
his bones. but lived long after him.
For half a century after his death he
was, 'amang the unco guild" bogy
raised to frighten unruly children.
Tom Paine" and 1.-The devil" were
synonyms. He was a firm believer In
God and Immortality and yet he has al
ways been denounced as an atheist.
The infidels have made him their hero
because the church denounced him,
He was bitterly hostile to sham and
pretense and all forms of despotism.
He was not learned, yet he shook crys-
tallized conservatism worse than any
man who ever laid hands upon 1t.
The ultra ungodly" of Salt Lake
held meeting recently to comment
crate Paine's birthday anniversary. 1t
was OF the usual kind, eulogistic OF his
services as u patriot and Us an icono-
clast.
What / would present is the man.
Paine's opinions on religion were incl
dental outbursts in the convictions of
the man against what he believed to be
caricatures of God and blasphemles
against the eternal calm and justice
that controlled the universe.
Paine never outgrew the environment
of his Quaker parentage. In the clos
ing years OF his life he lived In New
York city, and his most intimate
companion was Elias Hicks, founder of
what is known as the "Hicksite"
branch Of the Quaker church. That
such a man was Paine's friend and
close associate at n time when the
whole orthodox Christian world was de-
nouncing him as an atheist and infidel,
is evidence that the charges were true
only in very exaggerated sense. Paine
was so much of man that hope the

sketch OF his life:
He received only such n common
education as poor parents could give
him, which was meager He had no
dream of authorship. He came to
America in 1874. like all immigrants.
in hope of lettering his condition. He
found the American colonies In a state
OF intense excitement over the exact
ments forced upon them by the British
government. lIlsN quick sense of dis
cernment Showed him that there was
only one way ont OF the difficulty. and
that was In the Independence OF the
colonies.
He made the acquaintance of Frank
lin In England, and II was by his adj
vice that Paine came to America. He
became editor OF the Penn'a
Magazine. His first work OF renown
was Common Sense.' a large pam
phlet In which. after celebrating the
condition Of the colonies and their rein
ton to the king, he cut the knot by de-
clarng that the colonies should become
free and independent states. This aues-
ton had been agltated in New England

A split-up has occurred among the
contractors running the tunnel on the
Dalton. Lorenzo Nielsen, one OF the
contractors, with his brother came
down Sunday night. He has with
drawn with some kind of an under
standing with his partners, who will
continue the work until 1t is finished.
Jim Nielsen and VIII King have
taken n contract to run tunnel two
hundred feet on the Crystal to tap the
vein lower down. When they strike
the vein in this tunnel they can stope
the GRE down in place of raising 1t up
through n shaft and thereby effect a
great saving in the cost OF mining.
Mr.. Whltlock has discovered "a vein
of mineral in the east mountains about
two miles north of Junction that as
says over two dollars in gold at the
surface. The vein IL three or four
feet wide. He is sinking shaft on it
now and when he gets down about ten
feet he will have 1t thoroughly tested.

The Eceni7g Star, Of Spartanburg,
s. c., re-echoes the declaration OF
The NeU Orleans States. in referring
to the negro editor at Wilmington
who recently wrote that the white
women of this State are as much to
blame as the negro men who are
lvnched for outraging them, when 1t
saws ..there is not another commun-
ity in the South, outside OF North
Carolina, but would have hung the
black scoundrel who penned that
article to the first swinging limb or
lamp post" And it continues:
And vet 50 thoroughly cowed and

gallant old State, and so accustomed

To stand and think of life of yesterday:
A little time to dream of sunlit hours
Spent where white towers rise against

On my past living and past loving lett,
Wrapped in its golden haze, to stir my

And call and bitter cry of the bereft?
The memory Of touch warm, trusting,

The memory of that touch grown cold as

A love whose bright flame burned in

Only grave? Life of do-day will teach
