THE GUABD. Entered at the Poet Office, Batesville, as Second -doss Matter. FRAWK. D. DEMTOM Editor. WEDNESDAY. JULY 11, 1888. Tint Southern World, of Atlanta, Ga., says: That real estate is in such demand that the dirt excavated for cellars, is sold at good figures. It IS said, that the Crow Indians, are becoming yankeeised. They put rocks in the bales of hay, which they sell to Uncle Sam. * FIRST BALK The first bale of new cotton hails from Georgia; was soli at Dany, Ga., on |he sth, at 25| cents per pound, and was grown in Baker county, of that State. W. H. Vanderbilt, has done the handsome thing again, toward the Vepderbilt University, at Nashville, Tennessee. He has donated the prince ly sum of $100,000.00 to the University Endowment fund. The Richmond, (Va.). editors, did fight with pistols at eight paces, on June the 30th, and Col. Elam, the Mahone re-adjuster editor, received a revere, if not a serin us wound, in the upper part of the right thigh. J. T. Brown, Jr., late U. 8. Marshal, was, on the 2nd inst, sentenced by Judge Caldwell, of the U. 8. Court, to five yean imprisonment, and to pay SI,OOO fine. Brown geta two yean and six mouths each, on two charges. The Ohio Republicans strongly inti mate that they need money to carry their Stats at the October election. This may be taken as an intimation that they will need the ecrcioa of Dorsey and Hubbell. The opposition to Gen. D. H. Hill, us President of the Arkansas Industrial University, is partly of a local nature, ood of a politico-religious character, which comes of a desire on the part of a few, to control the management of the University, and to dictate to Presi-! dent Hill, what be should do and 'bow he should de it HAHKIXU AVAIX. A gvesft bate and cry, was raised at one time, by certain mal-contents, ngaiwt Gen. ©. K- Hill, then, as now, the Paesidoct -of the .State Industrial UuivcStrty, located at Eayottevillc; be cause be deemed it right and proper to send his non 4a another College, in a distant state, to be educated. In this, we think be acted wisely, prudent and fatherly. ThesChy, reosoving all in sinuations surd <ehtmor, tbat would have arose—that be was partial to--and favored that son. This m one of the •. many petty oppositions, hurled against ’ Gen. Hill, by «nvious «nd malicious • enemies. Gen.

Surely, Arkansas.has ■son of splendid l legal ability; but, pray name one of them who would relinquish his practice, in exchange for the office of Attorney General, at the insignificant sulary. , The employing of assistant counsel to! prosecute the suit against ex-Tneaswr' Churchill, is in conformity to Act Na. 85, passed by the last G coeval Assembly, authorising the Governor to employ counsel in certain cases, and this was understood to be the “certain" case for which $5,000 was appropriated.

"When some o.ie asked Beecher, the other day, if the world was not growing worse and pointed to the long list of crimes pub lished in the papers as proof of this, he re plied with an emphatic “no.” The world is better, more viftaons to-day, and fewer outrageous crime* are committed than a centnry ago. This apparent increase in crime is dun simply to the fact that the newspapers nowadays publish full and ex haustive accounts of all the murders, em bezzlements etc., whereas a hundred years ago, these crimes were known only to those immediately interested. Why do they do this? And what is the ef fect? It has been charged that this criminal column in a newspaper is an unfortunate pandering- to the love of scandal. It cauuot be denied that many of the Western news papers relish a scandal simply on account, of its innate nncleanuess. A certain Chica go paper used to keep a column standing, appropriately styled “The Beasts' Column,” which proved very agreeable and pleasant reading for hnman beasts That journal, however, does not represent the tine jour nalistic feeling on this subject, which pub lishes full accounts of crimes because they are news, and as a warning and example to nil evil doers. How mneh good has been done in this way it is almost impossible to calculate. The criminal often escapes juries and judges. The only punishment that can be awarded him is the condemnation or public opinion* and the branding of the press. There is the Dakes case again. A jnry ac quitted Dukes, but the press showed him to lie guilty, and held him up to the contempt and scorn of the world, visited his crime with such deep denunciation that it is net likely to occur again in Pennsylvania. There is the O’Malley case in Connecticut Again the law acquitted the criminal, but the press so denounced the crime that the fast yonng men ot Counecticutt have grown more timid iu their excesses, and seduct ion is less frequent in “the Nutmeg State ” thanks to the press and its criminal column. As long, therefore, as the pi ess coniines itself to the publication of criminal news, gith the idea simply of telling the truth, and exposing hypocrisy and evil to the world, it is serving a good purpose. And all criminals must be exposed, punished, branded alike—living or dead. The old motto, ail de morbus n*si tonuin, is rank hypocrisy. According to this, we must say nothing evil of Nero, and con tine ourselves to comments on his poetry and music. The grave will not allow us to recall the acts aud crimes of the dead as a warning to the yonng; we must sav good only of them. We believe that it is now universally ac knowledged that it is to the interest of so ciety to expose and condemn vice mid crime. If the criminal is figuring before the w< rid as a virtuous saint, all the more reason why he should be uncloaked and exposed. If we point out that Billy McGlory, “the worst man iu New York,” is bod we do not do ball so mneh good as when we show that ho who pretends to be virtuous, and is regal ded as such, is secretly a villian aud a hypocrite .It may be unfortunate to seo au idol fallen but it is better to know the whole truth at once, aud knowing it, to publish it as a warning to all. The world confesses this now, and we are surpriscil. therelore. to sec some of the re ligions papers taking ii diflbrent view of the case, aud urging that otfruaes in which clergymen are involved should not ba made public. We understand the motive of this argument. They fear that the exposure of these ministers will injure the cause of re ligion itself, and that the public w ill grow lukewarm in. their devotion to religion if they find out there are sinners among their trusted priests nn.l pn-tors. We cauuot believe thio. The people fully appreciate the fact that a minister may go wrong without casting any stain on the re ligion he misrepresents. It is, indeed, to theadinntape ot the Church tliat these wolves in Hheep's clothiug should be public ly exposed and driven from the fold. If a minister i>< gnilty of any offense or crime, let it Ire investigated and proved, if this is possible, even if h» is dead It is Irest that his memoiy should not Ire venerated ss that o: a boiut, when be is, iu truth, a hypocrite aud n sinner. , We cauuot agree with onr religions jonr na’istic friends tbit it is to the interest or advantage of religion to cloak or conceal clerical misdeeds aud scandals. A rmnister who docs wrong is more guilty tliau a lay man; lie deserves less cousidt ration aud is entitled to less concealment. Offens, s of this kiud arc fortunately few. but wheuthey do occur wo see no reason why all the file's in them should not bo published to the whole world.-New Orleans Tiuies-Dcmccrat. bEHIORIiELLE'S DEI ERMIXA 11OX.

Editor Guard—So mneh him been said of lute iu regard to the poatoilice “crookednoHa” at this phuie ani particularly egaiust the undersigned; that I deem it my duly to make reply. Iu the hud issue of the Pilot appears three affidavits, or Ktatemeuts purporting to lie aflidavita, evidently having I men sworn to, two of which, oi at least certain parts there of— unnecessary here tb quote—are utterly false, and the sole motive therefor is mire inalieiouaiMos; As to Mr. Alberts mate-- meat, bis opEdon (aud the p*rt refered to is Wily his opinion) is uncalled tor and his cou clusioit a false oue and entirely unwarran ted by what appears ip The records. Noth ing more could have beto expected of Mr. Pearson. As he has already rendered him-’ ^f****** Alt* laws of onr land, as the y”™* eirvuit court do show. In J**?!^ke*wa I never “accounted *»»*’*■" th « » a7 - 5a 5,1 4° not QU der- stauda He says e* lbe stmete that the mouey order funds wm* the other funds and contaj* and that had it been only an much money would have been on him^«KJ is the mosti^smous lb of them ell! Mr. Pernon knows and k> does the In- spector, that he (Pearson) was habitually using Government funds, and that he was almost continually behind with the Govern ment on money-order account several hun dred dollars, and that iusKHkl of remittng the surplus daily as the law requires, he Aid so only* every week or an, and ttan “not in full." Tno cash book 'is balanced only oneo a week, and not ofter ner did h* count his mouey order funds and compare the cash on hand with the cash bal ance as appearing ou tho cosh book, and then only to see how much ‘-short” he was. All the Government hinds and also hie private funds when he had .any,- were kept iu one drawer (the law requires that they should be kept separate-the mouey order fund to itself) and cut of it he used what money he needed daily for demestio and ■ other purposes. Many of onr citizens will , recollect pre- ' Renting money orders nt the postofflee to.be cashed aud the remark “just seut nil my money to St. Louis this morning, mny be Geo. Patillo or Simbu Adler cm cash them for you,” at tho snmo time his cnsh book would show a cash balance of SSOO to $2.000 ask him to show yon his cash book. Won der ifhe recollects when (about July llth-82) he issued $l,OOl in money orders on W. M. Blelock. St. Louis, and then drew against it and hod it applied to pay Khat he owed the Goremmml on money order account, and this . isn't hall! Positive proof of this, and also of similar tricks, was furnished tho inspector, 1 and yet he is postmaster! But I ani glad to say not by the will of tho people of Bates- 1 vtlle, bnt by the will of tho Republican State Ceutml Committee. j Now Mr. Editor and citizens ol Batesville ' I deny ever using a cent of Mr. Pearson’s money or of Governmeut money, all the money taken iu for mouey orders issued was 1 deposited iu the cash drawer aud there it remained until instructed to send' it off or until he took it out for bis own use. The cnsh book was just u mere form to show how much he owed tho Government, nu l not how mneh cash was ou hand. All the mon* ey taken in on money order sccouut he got, and therefore, he owes the Government for all orders issued by this office. Similar errors are liable to be made by any postmaster or assistant as nn error iu noy other acconut is made; but one for that amount would not have been made had the funds been in a proper condition to have been counted and eou>pnn»l with tho bal ance in the cbhli book. Again, it was consid ered by the Government ns nn error only, as the notice from the Auditor is about* this way; “You are hereby notified that the fol lowing errors appear iu your money order statement.” Ac. These notices being in printed foi m prove thnt n great many errors are made by tbc different offices throughout the country.
