MONTICELLO, Miss, April 3d. 1888.
We had fine rain last Tuesday
and Notwithstanding the nights have
been very cool, garden and field plants
are growing finely. Cotton planting
is progressing well, and some farmers
have even commenced scraping.
Pearl river has gone down so much
as to close the steamboating for this
season; the Steamer Earl failed to
reach us last week and we will hardly
have another boat soon.
Little Walter, son of Jesse Wilson,
while playing yesterday, accidentally
broke both bones of his fore arm. DR..
Teunisson reset and bound it up.
Our community is apparently very
healthy, but the doctors have some
work to do.
NOn-residents continue to make
raids Oh our county. Mr.. jeff Roster,
of Rolling Fork, made descent last
Sunday and carried off Miss Bessie
Rutland, a most charming young lady
of crooked creek, and the gallants
of the neighborhoOd were forced to
acknowledge themselves powerless
to prevent it.
The Rev. Mr.. Welborn preached a
very instructive sermon to an
appreciated audience at the court
house yesterday. We would be
pleased to have him with us often,
but rumor says he proposes at an early
day to make his home more attractive
by making Il certain kind of alliance,
such as widOwers frequently make.
He is in town this morning, though
we are unable to guess the nature of
his business.
Mrs. Cannon, mother of our efficient
clerk, is visiting her children at
this place, and Mr.. G.. r. Dale is
gone after his mother-in law, Mrs.
McLaurin. We are glad of it; we
like mothers and mothers in law, and
wish some more of them would come.
Mrs. B. ID. Bishop has new piano,
and is now ready to give lessons in
music.

Now while you hear a great deal
said about the prosperity of the coun-
try, this does not show prosperity
among the farming class. No, out of
the multiplied millions they produce
they do not get decent living, but
we are happy to say to day that we
are full of hope from the outlook of
the Farmers Alliance, and the zeal and
energy displayed in pressing the work.
Success will eventually crown our
effort We are today looking forward
with bright hopes to the time when
the farmers not only of Mississippi
but of the entire country will stand
together as a unit and bring order out
of chaos and confusion, and bring
again peace and plenty, but to do
this will require not only farmers but
united action. Then in conclusion,
would say why should this order not
prosper9 Its principles are based upon
all that is pure, true and good; and
with Gods help know it will surpass
our brightest expectations.

The communication from the
Clarion-Ledger, published in another
column, proposing John II. Martin
for Congress, was put in type for this
issue before the melancholy news of
his tragic death was received. 1t is a
true and merited tribute and we pub
|lish it now to show the high esteem
Pin which he was held in the home of
,his adoption in Kinds county by those
who know him well, and what, though
$50 young, he had accomplished and
promised to accomplish for the people
and society. Verify, life of uncom-
|mOn promise, has been cut off in the
morning of its usefulness. 1t will be
|many day before our State will look
upon his like again.

state of things the farmers and labor
ing classes are carrying almost the
entire burden of the government; but
we are proud to say that the chief
magistrate of the nation is a man with
a heart as well as brains, when he
said to congress take the duties of
the necessaries of life and let them go
duty free. This did more to endear
him in the hearts of the American
people than any other one act OF his
life. will now give you list of the

Lawrence County Alliance.
MONTICELLO April 81 1885

MONTICELLO, April "a, 1888.
The Farmers County Alliance of
LAWRENCE county, Miss, met at Mon
ticello on the "a day of April, 1888.
All of the Sub-Alliances of the
county, except two, were represented.
There was nothing of special utter
est before the Alliance. The various
Sub-Alliances, with few exceptions,
report that satisfactory arrangements,
in regard to trade, have been made
for the present year. The Alliance
in Lawrence county has come to stay,
at least one would so conclude when
he sees the interest manifested by the
good old farmers of the county. The
farmers, at last, seem to realize their
condition and are endeavOring to gain
their freedom, and if they will only
continue faithful they will succeed
beyond a doubt.

Reforms Suggested Regarding
the New Zealand Mail.

Reforms suggested Regarding 3
the New Zealand Mail.
SAN Francisco, February 16.-It is
ported that several improvements are
contemplated in the international
mail service between New Zealand
and Australia and England and Eu-
rope by the American transcon-
tinental lines and their Eastern
connections. 1t is proposed to have
New Zealand build one or more mail
cars to be devoted exclusively for it's
own service between San Francisco
and New York, and to have the agent
that has charge of the mail across tre
Pacific ocean go as far as New York.
Another proposed change is to
substitute Cunard steamers for the
Red Star line, and then arrange that
the service to and from London shall
not exceed twenty-eight or thirty
days journey. With programme OF
this kind it is said that the steamer
will leave London on Satur-
day afternoon and arrive in New
York about a week later on Sunday,
where transfer will be made to the
proposed new cars, which will reach
this city on the following Thurs
day morning. Departure will
then be made from here on
the afternoon Of the same day and
New Zealand will be reached in an
eighteen days. trip. The New Zea-
land Parliament is now in session and
it is thought will take some action in
the matter.

Anderson, of Illinois, favored the
bill, and detailed the provisions oi
the contract enteredinto between the
Union Pacific Railroad Company and
the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany, to show it was in direct viola
ton of the granting act of the former
company. which provided that il
should receive and transmit all tele-
grams presented to it without discrimi-

Hopkins, of Illinois, contended that

Company, and that the company had
acquired sted rights which could
not be interfered with.

The Charges Against Gould ana
Sage Submitted.
New York, February 16. - The
charges against Jay Gould and Rus
sell Sage, made on behalf Of the
stockholders of the Kansas Pacific
Railway Company, of approrriatingt to
their own use $1,000, 900 of the COM
pany's bonds, were laid before the
Grand Jury this morning. The Jury
was given all documents bearing on
the case, and on Monday next Wit
nesses will be summoned.
Among the documents submitted
was pamphlet concerning the pro-
ceedings before District Attorney Fell
lows with closed doors, when the
question was being considered whether
or not to lay the matter before the
Grand Jury.
E. l.. Andrews who presented the
case on behalf of the complain
ant said: "The essential attrih-
utes Of the case do not differ
from an ordinary case of embezzle--
ment. There is the same entrust!nc
of property and the same ap5rour;a,.
ton where an employe taxes what is
entrusted to him ~ his employee. =
Counsel went ca to say that the only
difference which the case presented
from ordinary embezzlement was that
it was done under apparent forms Of
law.
Artemus Holmes, on behalf Of thu
respondents, argued that there was
no criminality in the proceedings, nor
were they carried on secretly. All Of
the proceedings were reported to the
Secretary OF the Interior in 1880, and
subsequently presented in a report to
Congress. The mortgage under which
Messrs. Gould and Sage were ap-
pointed trustees contained q clause
which could very properly be con-
strued so as to allow a r-lease Of the
Denver and Pacific stock.
John F. Dillon went into the pro-
ceedings in detail, and contended that
the decree of the Supreme Court OF
New York was valid and properly OBJ
taii ed and furthermore, that thei Law
Of Limitations debarred all the origi-
nal proceedings.
Bourke Cochran also supported this
view.
Andrews closed the hearing with
the argument that the Statute OF Linn
itations does not spply under such
circumstances.

policemen, went to Arsenal Hill. the
