A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.

P. S. WESTFALL,

EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR.

TERRE HAUTE, MARCH 18, 1882.

THE GARFIELD LETTER IN FA MY. The sensation of the last few days has been the discovery of an alleged letter of the late President Garfield to Secretary Chase, written in 1863. The letter was made public through the columns of the New York Snn, and is supposed to make jinj ustiflable reflections on General Rosecrans, Garfield being his chief of staff at the time. The substance of the letter is that the long delay after the battle of Stone river by Gen. Rosecrans, to attack Braggs army, was, in the writer's judgment, unjustifiable and disastrous that be had used every effort in his power to persuade an advance, but was uniformly overruled by Rosecrans and the other generals. Although the letter is of some length, this is the burden of it ^throughout.

As to the morale of the letter different views are expressed. Some urge that it could not have been honorably written by Garfield while occupying the inti mate relationship of chief of staff to Rosecrans, and indicates a desire to procure the letter's removal and possibly to be himself made his successor. Other •authorities, quite as eminent, take the position that the letter was not only defensible but, under the circumstances of its writing, entirely proper that while esteeming Rosecrans highly, and loving, as he says in this very letter, "every bone in Rosecrans' body," he was called upon to decide between a favorite com mandor and what he deemed the best in terests of the country, and was in conscience bound to protest against what he felt to be a fatal delay. There is also uncertainty as to whether the letter is genuine or not, some believing it to be forged in whole or in part by the enemies of Garfield.

Be these things as they may, the letter .makes its advent to the public in a suspicious manner. It is now almost twenty years since it was written. Both the writer and the man to whom it was written are in their graves, and can give no explanation of it. "Who," it has well been asked, "is rummaging through dead men's letters to find something to publish to the world t* The letter was private aud confidential it waaintended for no eye but that of the man to whom it was addressed. Who, at this late day and in this uncalled-for manner, deems it necessary or dealrable to spread ***blIc

lignity of the most venomous kind in this business—malignity to a dead man's jtnemory—cannot be doubted. Whose •.venom is it?

At the present writing, while the matter is involvod in doubt, there are indications which seem to point in the direction in which the public would instinctively turn its eyes for an explanation. Mrs. Kate Chase Sprague is the daughter of the man to whom the letter purports to have been written she is also his literary legatee and has had possession and control of all his papers and rorrespondence. If there is any such letter in existence it would bo likely to bo in her hands. Iler relations with Mr. Conklitig are too notorious to require comment. Mr. Conkling was the malignant enemy of the late President. His brother is part owner of the Now York tSun, and the Sun has always been the warm friend of Mr. Conkling. These indications may not point to the real jerjot rators of this cowardly and malignant piece of business, but the public cannot be oxpectod not to draw inferences from them, and inferences are boldly and freely drawu. The transaction is made the more ghoulish by the fact that, early in 1880, the Sun insinuated that there were documents in existence to show that Garfield had been disloyal to Rosecrans, and had intrigued against him while pretending to be his friend. Rosecrans called the attention of Garfield to this statement, and the latter promptly replied: "Any charge, whether it comes from Dana or any other liar, that I was in any sense untrue to you or unfaithful to our friendship, has no particle of truth in it and boldly challenged the production of any such document, saying that his enemies were welcome to all the capital they could make out of it. He was alive then, and could and would have answered the charges now made, but none were preferred. His cowardly detractors chose io wait until he was dead, and then attempt to blacken and defame his memory. But the effort will not succeed. It will rather come back to roost with thv»e who have been so morally unclean .as to send it forth to the world, and we predict that it will be but a little while until all interest in the alleged letter will give way to that of finding the perpetrators of such a dastardly infamy: and when found, as they will be, they •will carry the condemnation of an outraged people with them to their graves.

THHBK seems to be a disposition to rake up old military events, and bring them tothe front again. Let uahope that all the battles of the late war are not to be fought over again on paper. Twenty years have passed, and a good many men are dead. There is danger that there may be a lack of witnesses on iaiportant point*. The war is over. Lots of blunders were committed, no doubt, but suppose we say that "All's well that ends well," and let the matter rest.

POLYGAMY MUST GO. It really begins to look as if polygamy must go. Both houses of Congress have passed the Edmunds bill, which only awaits the signature of the President to beeome a law, ani the mass meetings of citizens throughout the country fully indicate that the sentiment of the Nation is in accord with the action ot Congress Never before was the feeling against polygamy so strong as now, and never was the foolishness of ^mporizing with it so clearly realized. It is a hideous monster which must be throttled by the strong hand of the Government and strangled or it will never die. It has no rights which anybody is bound to respect, and it is entitled to BO sympathy For its deluded victims and for the innocent children to which it has given birth only kindness and sympathy are felt and expressed, and these must be mercifully dealt with. The Edmunds bill is a radical measure, and if it can be enforced bids fair to exterminate the "twin relic." It makes polygamy in any Territory of the United States a felony punishable by fine and imprisonment makes the practice or belief in polygamy sufficient grounds for the peremptory exclusion of a person from sitting on a jury in any prosecution for that offense authorizes the President to grant amnesty to those guilty of the offense before the passage of the act legitimizes children born of polygamous marriages prior to January 1, 1883, and forbids any polygamist, male or female, from voting or holding any Territorial or Federal office. Will it be enforced? That is the question now, and the solution of that question will be watched with anxious interest by the entire Nation.

COMMENTING over the recent display by Jay Gould of $53,000,000 in stocks in his possession, the Chicago Tribune says "There is something radically wrong in a system whieh enables one man to plunder tens of thousands of people to the extent of 100 millions of dollars within a dozen or fifteen years. It is only the contemplation of such mon strous pillage which makes Communism comprehensible." It further observes that with Jay Gould worth $100,000,000 and Vanderbilt twice as much and the aggregate wealth ui eight or ten other great operators representing $500,000,000 more, it would not be difficult for a combination to be effected which should consolidate the entire railroad system of the country in the hands of a dozen men and put the publio at their meroy. This rapid and enormous aggregation of wealth in the hands of the few is a subect well caloulated to startle the people and deserves the thoughts of our public men.) more than many other subjects which are deemed of great importance. It is a subject which ought not to he longer neglected or postponed and if the controlling political parties of the country do not speedily give it the attention which its importance deserves, a party is likely to oome to the front which will.

THEY are having a hot time in Ohio over the question of closing saloons on Sunday, and a State Convention of those in favor of the proposed measure, irrespective of party, is to be held at Columbus on the 23d instant for the purpose of giving impetus to the movement. It would seem there could hardly be two views of the subjeot. Employ ers.'of workingmen uniformly testify that their men are badly demoralized on Mondays by reason of their Sunday dHuklng and debauchery, while butchers and other dealers say that the wives of employes ask for credit at their shops because the wages which should have gono to support the family have been speut in the saloons. It will be one long step on the road to temperance when Ohio comes abreasf of her sister States by compelling the saloons to shut their front doors, at least, on Sunday, instead of disporting bands of music to draw men in.

THE young Democrats of Indianapolis, at their township convention recently held, brashly declared that the real issue in the coming campaign is prohibition or anti-prohibition and that they were decidedly in favor of the latter. To give emphasis to the declaration they nominated a saloon keeper for the head of their ticket. The old Democrats do not take kindly to the policy adopted, however, and are not backward about saying so. They question the expediency of taking such a pronounced position on the liquor question, and are afraid of a reaction against them. The outcome of the Spring campaign in Indianapolis will he awaited with some interest, as the result is likely to have some influence in shaping the policy of the parties in the State campaign.

THE Harrison revival meetings, in Cincinnati, have resulted in about 1,000 conversions, and the interest continues without substantial abatement. The history of the great Roberts Park revival, at Indianapolis, is being repeated at St. Paul's. There has been throughout the country, and notably in the Methodist churches, (though the movement has not been by any means confined to that denomination) a remarkable display of religious activity during the past Winter. In many churches there have been hundreds of conversions, while in many others there have been smaller additions. On the whole, the church will show a remarkable growth during the past year.

DR. GOLDIE, the English medical writer, is of the opinion that epidemics are often spread by milk which before its delivery to consumers has been kept in vile places where it has "licked up" infection from the surrounding atmosphere.

TOT verdict announced last Saturday that Sergeant Mason, for firing at Guiteau's cell window, should be dishonorably discharged from the army, with loss of all pay and allowances, and confined at hard labor in a penitenary for eight years, has caused a wave of indignation to roll from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and petitions for his pardon are pouring in upon the President. A big petition will go up from this city Mason's act is one calling not so much for admiration as pity, and the very gen eral impression is that military disci pline haviiig been vindicated by the sentence, the President will obey the people's demand by a prompt pardon.

CERTAIN rumors have got into circulation tothe effect that Jay Gould was getting into close quarters and was selling stocks, that gentleman quietly called a a few of the leading operators into his office and exhibited to them $53,000,000 worth of stocks in posession of which 123,000,000 were Western Union Telegraph. His guests found no occasion to stay there long and went awby wiser, if sadder men. Russell Sage says that no other man in the country except Vanderbilt could make such an exhibit. Mr. Gould appears to be in a fair way to take care of himself fer some time to come.

THE American Express Company has undertaken to do what the Government should have done long ago, namely, to transfer money in small sums by money orders at the rate of five cents for sums of $5 or less and eight cents for sums up to $10. The orders are good for three months from date of issue, and may be bought in lots and the place where payable inserted at convenience.

THE unsatisfactory condition of things in their own country, heavy taxes, small wages and rumors of wars, is creating a stampede of Germans to this country. Nearly 13,000 have set sail since the beginning of the year, although the real emigration season has as yet hardly begun. ______________

THE President has found a man at last for the Supreme bench and a very good one too. Judge Samuel Blatehtord, of New York, will be a credit to the bench. His reputation as a fine lawyer and judge is already made by a long experience on the bench. The selection will give general satisfaction throughout the country.

GEN. ROSECRANS doesn't seem to be gaining much glory from the developments growing out of the Garfield letter. Perhaps, though, it will be a boom for him for the Democratic nomination for President in 1884.

THAT Ashantee story telegraphed from London some time ago, that the King had massacred 200 maidens to mix their blood with the mortar for his new palace, is denied by his son.

A CLERICAL SCANDAL.

JTHEfSTORY OF ST. JOSEPH.

ONE THAT IS AS OLD AS SIN ITSELF.

St Louis Globe-Democrat.

The virtuous and circumspect City of St. Joseph, in this State, is being brought into unpleasant prominence by a clerical scandal recently developed there. It appears that the woman in the case went to consult her pastor, privately, in his study, atxut the matter of gett^Qg a divorce from her husband. Nothing could be more natural than that, of course a minister ought to know all about divorces, and a woman in quest of an article of that kind may reasonably be expected to look for it privately in the pastoral study. But in this case the clergyman seems to have taken a radical view, and to have "amazed" his fair visitor, for, according to her story, he emphasized his advice by throwing his arm around her and kissing her—for her mother, perhaps or in a burst of spiritual sympathy or with a view to making the connection between premise and conclusion in a way that should vindicate his thorough familiarity with the subject. "I could scarcely believe my own eyes," the eonfiding sister declares "but I was alone woman, and what was I to do?" What she did do, for one thing, was to keep resolutely quiet about it for nearly a year, and then to haul her pastoral guide and counselor up in a church court ror trial. After a full hearing, the minister was exonerated. We are not in possession of the points upon which the finding was based but it is easy to imagine that, granting all the alleged circumstances to be true, any jury of Intelligent and experienced deacons would still be obliged to render a verdict in favor of the defendant. The story is old as sin itself. A case exaetly similar is recorded away back in Genesis. "The woman gave me of the tree, and I did eat." Aaam was not a preacher, to be sure, and it would have saved him a good deal of trouble had he said "No, thank youbut the preacher is more or less an Adam, like any of the rest of us, and when he takes a nibble of the forbidden fruit, we know so well how it is ourselves that we cannot find it in our hearts to be too hard upon him. Such was the view of the deacons in the St. Joseph case and we think their course will be generally approved, even by the sisters.

why an attarctive woman should be permitted to go privately into a clergyman's study on a tender and suggestive mission.

Tempting the frailty of liis powers, Presuming on their changeful potency, and then turn upon him with persecution because he tries to make things pleasant for her. What a woman invites she should not be permited to make a fuss about. By putting herself in the wrong place at toe right time, she forfeits all reasonable claim to redress and to sympathy. The extenuating clroumlAances in these episodes are entirely on the side of the pastor, particularly if the woman be pretty. We must not be understood as claiming that clerical conduct of this kind is night, per se, or that it should be encouraged on the contrary, we concede it to be naughty, and think the oustom better honored in the breach than the observance, whatever the opportunity. But the point we nufke is that the party of the first part does not so much merit our applause in her show of virtuous indignation as the party of the second part deserves to have something pardoned to him on account of the measure of provocation.

To return to the case in lymd, and to be quite serious about it, we are unable to see why a woman should consult clergyman instead of a lawyer about a divorce proceeding, any more than she should interview a clergymen instead of a physician concerning an operation in obstetrics. And, certainly, if it be necessary for her to seek pastoral advice on any question, there.ls no reason why she should do it privately, in his study, rather than in company with some friend in the family parlor. The advice of a minister is worth no more on matters outside of his peculiar province than that of any other sensible man. A woman's proper and best male confidant, when she needs one, is her husband, her father or her brother even a cousin, we fancy, would do quite as well as a pastor, aud an editor better than either, taking them as they run, for an editor could at least keep the scandal out of his paper Therefore, while approving the verdict of the deacons at St. Joseph, we must not omit to point out the moral of the affair, which Is, evidently, that a woman in search of a specific article should betake herself to tne shop where it is dealt in—and if she make a mistake, or compromise herself by her own imprudence, to keep still about it, or at any rate, not rush franctically forward with her dis closure after preserving a silence of nearly a year. But we hope the "lone woman" will get her divorce and her husband very fik about it.

MARRIED IN HASTE. Henry L. Wallace, a well-to-do New York merchant, was married upon short acquaintance about twelve years ago to an orphan girl of whose worth he nappened to become aware. The couple went to Europe for the bridal trip. An enjoyable time was passed and at the end of six months Mr. and Mrs. Wallace took a steamer at Liverpool to return. When he had reached tne steamer Mr. Wallace remembered that he had left a valuable parcel at his lodgings. He told Mrs. Wallace that as he had plenty o£tim9 he would go back in person for the package. On his way he was jostled by a man who accused Mr. Wallace of picking his pocket. Thieves drested as officers hustled him into a cab, blacklacked him to prevent outcries, robbed him and left him in a small street in the outskirts of Liverpool. For several weeks he was so ill tliat the surgeons at the hospital to which he had been carried forbade him to talk. Meanwhile Mrs. Wallace had sailed and had reached New York. From the moment the steamer left the dock she believed that her husband meant to desert her. Upon her arrival in New York she inquired for a cable dispatch, aad finding none she went to Omaha, where she expected to find a former friend. The friend had moved to Salt Lake and thither she journeyed. Until two weeks ago she supported herself and child by taking in wasning. One day in the early part of this jmonth she met her husband on'the street. He was still searching for her and the meeting was most joyous.
