The investigation of the alleged j Texas outrages is proving a boomer- j ang to the Republicans.

Ilavidg interpolated theso remarks and extracts, I shall now proceed to state why Mr. West's reply may be considered as prejudiced and evasive : 2. He speaks quite voluminously of the formation of the Leesville District, yet nowhere gives to the Dev. L. E. Busby the credit so preeminently due to him for all that marie the school district practicable and desirable. He knew that prior to Mr. Busby's arrival at Leesville in 1878, and establishing the Leesville the j 11ini arrayed^lll^^^fctoLby was fully satisfied with a durBP^e hut in the distant woods where an abundance of "bad water" cculd be had for their devoted children ; .that there those children might have remained until to-day, imbibiDg "baa water," had it j not been for the unencouraged and ; unassisted exertions of this same Mr. Busby in their behalf ; and that the Board itself, with "all its pride and pomp, and circumstances of glorious power," might have remained undeveloped in the womb of uncreated things, had not the Rev. L. E. Busby alone raised his voice in behalf of the educational interests of Leesville ; - *-ttf tchilfii-. wieldincr the power won J VV* " C7 * for him by the Rev. Mr. Busby, Mr. West complacently ignores the instrumentality of Mr. Busby in all the good wrought within the district, but is evidently not unwilling at the same time that he should be charged with all the evils. 3. Mr. West has an indelible impression that there was to be only one white free school within the district, but neglects to state the fact that, according to the origiu&i vote of the people which created the district, according to the charter subsequently secured by the Rev. L. E. Busby, ano according to the decisions of both the Circuit and the Supreme Court, thai school was to be the Leesville English and Classical Institute, under the control of the Rev. L. E. Basby. 4. Mr* West is emphatically certair that R. M. Shealy deeded a certair tract of land which included space foi a Lutheran church, space for * ir- u ih it*? g, 'f mi" '1 ror^^^fc !- Professcrjs residence, but is silent s d to whom that land was deeded, an n was evidently not distressed with fee it that the people abroad would dra ! the deduction that the said land ha i- been deeded to the Board j^th tl o privilege of permitting a Lutbera n church to be built thereoD ; and thi jt th6 Board in its supreme benevoleni st did subsequently permit said cbun n to be built, ana was then nnjast ie ejected by it. And yet Mr. West we .e knew, but evidently had not himse r_ believed and dfd not care to in for the people, that the said land hi >y been inalienably deeded to the Luf eran church for a church, a scho< v aD3 a Professor's building, and th lv whilst the school building itself w ;h to remain the inalienable property the Lutheran chnrcb, there was i requirement that the school its* should, to- any extent, be sectaria but rather that it should remain as was, thoroughly free from all denoi ill inational taint, so as to be the mc 38, acceptable to all the people, as 5. He clearly understands tt ?i- space was accordingly selected for t of church and academy, but not that nt artful intermingling of incidents wi m an omission of dates can create t u- impression abroad that the chur as and the school building were sim on taneously erected by the above st ue gested authority of the Board, a ed yet Mr. West well knew that t to church had several years before be a erected by the church council; 5S- as the first and only^imrch its hospiMfl^H|^H|^| years the other de- i their i ations until they were ready to ; iDg th< for themselves, and that the service building, years afterwards, but 5. I the existence of the Board, had Lexin; jcated by the Rev. L. E. Busby to rfc< formitv with th9 provisions of 0f sch ed above referred to, no one to the ting, and built by hiin with people ontions begged precisely as ghcnlc sontributioca are. jor ^ le is confident that ths greater Hat re d f the money begged by the vate j, j.
