 in Alabama, and they would all b
 present at the joint meeting of tn
 committees in Chicago on the 9tl of August.
 "5. It is the present intention o
 the two committees not to put re publican electoral ticket Tn the field
 but to put out
 aREENBACK ELECTORAL TICkET, with . secret understanding tha
 half are to vote for Garfield. This course was communicated to me b, Jesse Harper, Gen. Weaver and George Turner. chairman of ths republican state executive commit tee, who all approve of this measure. l "6. The republican nationa executive committee has promised financial aid to conduct tho campaign in Alabama, and the two committees which meet in Chicago are to deter mine upon the amount to be used Tn this state in supporting news papers, paying the expenses of travelling speakers, etc.
 "7. The republican party has d. ready contributed money to conduct the campaign in Alabama in one instance as follows. George Fur ner, chairman of the republican sx- ecutive committee called upon the postmaster of Birmingham for the amount he had been sssss.sd fer campaign purposes. Col. Carpen. ter, chairman of the grecnback ex- eeutive committee of Alabama, wrote ts MT. Turner and requested him to withdraw his demand upon the post master in order that he might con tribute the amount to the green beck party. MT. Turner did % and the money contributed was used in the county campaign of Jefferson.
 "S. That the greenback party of Alabama has, through Col. Schloss, communicated with George Turner, asking aid of the republican exscu. tive committee in the way of money. MT. Turner forwarded Col. Schloss' letter to washington, to the repub- lican national committee with his hearty endorsement, accompanied by the urgent request that the money be forwarded immediately. The facts here stated and as contained under the seventh charge, were told me by both Col, Carpenter and George Turner.
 "9. The policy of the greenback party is ts
 BACK THEIR MEASURES BY FORGE, and do by violence what they fail to do by other measures. They pro- pose to send five hundred northern men south, with money to pay their expenses, going in squads and ac- companisd by United States mar shals. Those men will occupy the time until the November elections making speeches and endaavorlng to incite violent opposition to the democratic party, and they hope by placing the polls in the hands of United States marshals and stirring up the people to fight among them selves that they will be able to carry the election.
 "lO. Tn. policy of tho party isi to arouse a strong feeling at the north against the southern people. With this view large numbor of men, both white and black, have been employed to visit all parts oJ the north making speeches, telling the people of the north that they are oppressed, bulldozed, and not allowed . fair count. They thus hope to
 INCrTE A SECTIONAL FEELING,
 against tho south which will cause the people of the north to back them in their endeavors te place ballot boxes h this state in tho hands of United States marshals.
 "In my varlous conversations with leading greenbackers and re- publicans, have taken down some of their expressions ofiopinions, etc, which I wish to give, in order to show that in private they express far different motives from those ex- pressed by them in public, and they are therefore deceivirg our people as to their real sentiments. Gen Weaver says, in addressing his aud fence, that financial issues are the ones for consideration; but in con vsrsation with Judge Rice and MT Dimmick, republicans, he said nn aneial questions are of no impor tance. The main object is to over throw tho democratic party in tho south, and it can only be done through the greenback party. Th' only hope for republicans in thu
 south is under the name of green packers, and they must unite witi
 them. He said to party of work ingmsn who called on him that If

 they would do Tn his State and h , advised them to do likewise i
 Alabama. He remarked to mo tim and again that he would make . hot for tho people of Alabama pc } fore he got through with them. H remarked ts Mir. James F. Arm [ strong, that a grseAback democr' was . humbug. Laboring men nu' I If h
