Eddy appears to think that Jefferson was en anti-expansionist, and tnlnks s) as hard as Oroker does that eld Tom waa an expansionist. CLEVELAND'S administration was strongly favorable to Spain. That any American administration could write such letters as were written by Cleveland's Secretary of State, Olney, Is a burning disgrace.

ItoitEBTH, the Utah congressman, practically admits that be IB tbe possessor of throe wives; that be is being persecuted on account of his ''religion;" that polygmy not bigamy; that bigamy is a crime and polygmy a misdemeanor. The verdict of Congress nbonld be that a member of the House who commits that kind of a misdemeanor is an unfit legislator. Roberts Is trying to pose as a martyr but he will not find much sympathy. Even tho Mormons are sorry they elected the three-wife man, so soon after pledging that polygmy should not exist.

Since my earliest recollection 1 have heard and read of the Woodrlver mnwacre and have often had the place pointed out me where It occurred and my first aequilntace with Oapt.

Able Moore and his brother, and with geveral of Oapt. Moore's children. Major i'rank Moore can not tell when be did not. know tne, I used to often stop and hoar pioneer utorlea from his father. I knew, but was not Intimately acquainted with the others Some years ago some one published an account of the Woodrlver massacre, and so far from correct that I answered It and told what I knew.

By that paper the Hcene was laid near where the two railways and wagon road bridges crosses wood river at a place called Milton, some two miles or more from where I know It to have taken place. Mot long after 1 met Major Moore and after thanking me for making the correction said that I was nonror to It than any one who bad written before me, out that was still somewhat off. I said to him I would try again and with his help and his Bister's, Mrs. Lydla I thought I could get a correct history. There bus been nothing heretofore written (not oven my own) that IB perfectly reliable and this being a part of tho early hls'ory of MadHon county and an fndlnn massacre of the war of 1812 to 1815 should be.

Of course there Is no one who could per- Bonally vouch for the truth, but the children of Able Mooro would be the nearest to the mark. They have often hoard the story from father ana mother, and too, have beard It from their father. The Woodrlver massacre) of tbe township of Woodriyor, and county of Madison and State of Illinois, took place on the 10th day of July, 18H, In tbe southeast quarter of section of Woodrlver townahlp. The parties massacred were Mrs. IttcheJ Kuagun and hor two children Elizabeth (Bet- nay) agad 7 yearn and Timothy aged 3 years; two children of Oapt.

Abel Moore, William aged 10 and Joel aged 8 years, and two children of William Moore, John aged 10 anil George aged 'A years. The party started from the house of Reason Reagan to spend the day at Wm. Moore's, tho farm now owned by Mrs. Wm. Badloy.

Ke- tnrnlng In tho afternoon by way of Able Moore's form, (now owned by Geo. Oartwrlght) two of whose children. William and Joel, started home with them to get some green beans. Miss Hannah Bates, Mrs. Abel Moore's Bister, visiting there, also Btprted with them, to remain at Mrs.

Reagan's, but after going a part way, suddenly changed her mind, aa If warned by some presentment, and against the earnest entreaties of Mrs. Reagan, retraced her steps and bUBtened back home. From where she turned back she could not have been more than two or three hundred yards from where the body of Mrs. Rongan was found. Mrs.

Reagan aud the children were all tomahawked and ecalred, and they remained on the ground where they fell all night, the Indians having stripped them of all their clothinsr. William Moore having returned that day from Fort Butler, near the site of the village of St. Jacob, to look after the women and children at name, became alarmed as night approached, tbe children not returning, and went in feaToh of thorn, going by Abel Moore's. Mrs. Wm.

Moore, who wua a slater of Mrs. Reagan, also went on horseback, going a different rotiw from thnt her husband had token. Al though they did not meet until afier they had returned home, they both found the lifeless bodies in tbe dnrk- neas lylugby the and ouch placed a band upon bare sbou'drr of Mrs. Reagen. Mr.

Moore returned by way of Abel Moore's to notify ttiem and prepare for what might como to past). At first Mrs Moore thought Iho children being tired, had fallen asleep and stooped to pick up tne you'igebt child, but aa she did HO a crackle aud a sudden flash of 1 glit Iruni a burning hickory tree near by prevented her. Thinking It was tbe Indiana iu ambuah ibo sprung upon her hoise and reached home before her husband.
