Editor Review: Will you please pub
lish the following article which I haye clipped
from the Lake County Examiner at my "ex
pense for I consider that a great injustice hai
been done to Mr. Carter throunh false nubli-
cations that were made by our leading papers
before the facts in the caW were ascertained
and I wish his many friends in Douglas
county and elsewhere to know the truth of
the matter.
Most Respectfully Yours,
Jesse N. Banks.
Sometime since, Mr. J. W. Carter of this
place, who has been for the last year a stage
driver for Wm. Carll on the western route,
was arrested on complaint of one Mrs. Hague,
charging him with rape, committed upon her,
on the road between Ely and Lakeview. The
only evidence adduced against him at the ex
amination was that of the complaining wit
ness. In his on behalf, he submitted a
complete and full denial of all her statements.
The evidence of many other parties called on
behalf of the defense was strong and corobo
rated in a circumstantial way the testimony
of the defendant, showing almost conclusively
to a disinterested hearer that the crime could
scarcely have been committed as charged.
The violent and unmanly act was commuted
in a sleigh, by a man of ordinary strength,
and upon a person of a robust, agile, married
woman; and, one might add, ol very pleasing
address, at least she appeared so to us as we
heard her unblushingly tell the story of ber
alleged wrongs before a hundred jersons,
naming the crime aduliry. Does any man be
lieve that a virtuous woman could tell the
tale she did with such stolid indifference to
modesty? Docs any man who heard her
story believe it to be anything but a black
mailing fiction? in fact, docs any one who
heard the facts as she stated them believe in
the probability of such a thing being physic
ally possible? Now the finale is her depart
ure to places unknown. She was not required
to give bonds for appcarence before the grand
jury, though Carter's attorney asked it, and
hence this "daughter of Eve of virtue bereft"
has wrapped herself tip and stolen away lo
green pastures. Yet, this matter got into
the newspapers and was scattered broadcast
leading the public to believe Mr. Carter a
villian. He has borne a good reputation as
to morality, sobriety and virtue, is respected
by' the better class of our citizens, and since
his coming among us has so demeaned him
self as to gain the respect of this community.
IIis here in his usual avocation awaiting his
vindication, and where is the helpless and un
willing adulteress? These questions aiise in
the minds of justice loving citizens, and they
ask for a solution. ; Was it to sustain the maj
esty of the law that compelled her to cause
th arrest ol Carter? She failed to distinguish
the difference bctweecn rape and adultery.
Vjs it her intention to elevate the morals of
thj community by coming into court with her
nn-jnly detail and edifying the male community
by, her rehearsal of the "naughty affair?'' Was
it .jnything other than a shameful attempt at
black mail upon a person of unsullied 'reputa
tion heretofore? It is high lime that the peo
ple ol this vicinity learn to distinguish between

The Effect of Mental Exhm nation.
Many diseases, especially those of the ner
vous system, are the products of daily renewed
mental exhaustion. Business avocations of
ten involve an amount of' mental wear and
tear very prejudicial to physical health, and
the profTessiocs, if arduously pursued, are no
less destructive to brain and nerve tissue. It
is one of the most important attributes ot
Hostetters's Stomach Bitters, that it compen
sates for this undue loss ol tissue, and that it
imparts new eneigy to the brain anJ nerves.
The rapidity with which it renews weakened
mental energy and physical vitality is remark
able, and shows that its invigorating properties
are of the highest order. Besides increasing
vital stamina, and counteracting the effects o
mental exhaustion, this potential medicine
cures and prevents fever and ague, rheumatism
chronic dyspepsia and constipation, kidney
and uterine weakness and other complaints.,
Physicians also commend it as a medicated'
stimulant and remedy.
