WHAT THE LONDON PAPERS
SAY.
No Other Verdict Was Possible.
Pince of Wales Criticised.
{ By Cable.


LONDON, June Referring to
the result of the baccarat case, the
Post says: owe do not desire to add
to this anguish over the sad ending
of brilliant career, but the fact re-
mains that the signing Of the docu-
ment rendered it impossible to re-
habilitate the honor which Cum
ming himself treated 50 lightly"
The News says: 'In our judg-
ment no other verdict was possible.
Cummings signing of the paper
was damning. The public disap-
pOintment is due not to dissatisfac-
ton, but to the adequateness of the
verdict to meet the varied aspects
of the scandal. The Prince OF
Wales failed in the middle course
he adopted, but it has yet to DC
proved that his attempt was more
than grave indiscretion. The
pity Of it all is not there, but in
the presence of the heir to tho
throne at the head Of the baccarat
table. The Prince is bound tt
lead a pure, simple and cleauly
life, and to be an example to hi:
future subjects. Woe to {
monarchy when it can NJ
longer perform what ma,
fairly be called its last surviv
ing use. 1t is grotesque to hav'
a Prince carrying about baccara
counters wherever he goes as
Mahommedan carries his praying
carpet"
The Telegraph warmly defend
the Prince Of Wales against every
thing but indiscretion and grea
error of judgment. From mill
tary point of view, it says, tn
signing of the paper was condo
nation, but the error was prompte
by such an obvious leniency an
; kindness of heart that his generou
and free-hearted countrymen vii
speedily forgive and forget.

The party was headed by Sena-

President in conversational way,
said that he had the great honor
and the great pleasure of present

Of gentlemen from the Southern
States, very large number of
whom were from his home, some
from the thirteen States and the
city of Raleigh.
There were people of that State
and adjoining States who were dis
tinguished in history and he desired
to express to the President the
great wish of the gentlemen that the
President and his Cabinent visit the
Southern Exposition in October.
The present delegation, he said
was the largest ever visiting
Washington for such pur
pose. The Senator said tha
owing to the absence of the
Governor of North Carolina, who
he was informed could not leave
the city or cross the State line fol
official reasons (there being nc

was conferred upon him. Th,

FREDERICKSBURG, Va, June 10.
The statue to the Confederate
dead was unveiled here to-day with
imposing and appropriate exercises
in the presence of large concourse
of spectators. Early in the MORN
inc trains from the North and South
brought in great number of visi-
tors, and by noon fully 5000
strangers had arrived. In hon
or of the occasion, the city
was elaborately and handsomely
decorated and the day was one of
the most memorable in the city's
history. The hospitable capacity
of the town was fully taxed, but
everything passed off quietly and
nothing to mar the pleasures of the
occasion occurred. Representatives
from Pickett Camp, Norfolk, Lee
Camp, Richmond, Ewell Camp,
Prince William and delegations
from Alexandria, Roanoke and
Washington, were also present.
The decorations of the houses con-
sisted of National. State and Con-
. fedcrate flags, with bunting in pro-
fusion.
At $3.50 o'clock the procession
formed on Princess Anne street,
the right resting on Commerce street,
f and after an hours parade, pro-
ceeded to the Confederate Cemetery,
where the statue was unveiled and
the graves of the Confederate dead
: decorated.
: The oration was delivered by
General Bradley T. Johnston, and
was an able address. He paid a
glowing tribute to both North and
South, and urged that all animosi-
r ties and bad feelings engendered by
that terrible sanguinary strife cease.
In the South, he said, it was done
away with, and though they fought
for what they believed right there
could not be found, if the Union was
| in danger, any more loyal defenders
than those who wore the gray. Gen.
eral Corse, who commanded the 30tl
e Virginia regiment which went from
!. this city and vicinity, was also pres
ent and delivered short, but patri
otic address.

ter disciplined than they have ever been In
this state. One Of the most encouraging fea- 4
lures is the unanimity OF sentiment that pre-
vaila among the intelligent representative
members of our order 1t is indeed gratifying
to know that we have no Halls nor McAllisters
in our ranks in Alabama to breed dissension
and strife. We are practically q unit on AL
things pertaining to the interest Of the order,

Secretary J. j. Selvey, Of the Virginia
state Alliance, tells Of some very glori-
Gus work in the Old Dominion. In a
letter Of Oct. 19, 1891, he presents the
following:
DEAR BROTHER AYER-BelowI give you q
synopsis of last years work in Virginia. While
we have not accomplished as much as we had
hoped for, still we are far from being dis
couraged:

their labors.

Secretary N. e. Moody, Of the Wis
consin state Alliance, in an official let
ter, says:
We have organized more than 200 Alliances
during the past year. We do not expect in
Wisconsin to make much progress during sum-
mer and fall months, as our season for grow
ing and garnering our crops is Short and It is
rush with our people all the time. We are
now dcyising plans to open up the Alliance
canvass and push it vigorously during the
winter. think can truthfully say from my
observations that as an organization we will
practically stand together on all matters upon
which our principles touch.
Now, brethren and Alliance men ev-
erywhere, when you hear the cry that
the Alliance is breaking up" you may
just put this kind of construction on the
words, Breaking up the rings and mo-
nopolies that have brought such fendish
oppression upon the people as to make
them rise up and cry out against it,
Our people are patient and long suffer-
ing, and only the sternest necessity
drives them to protest. But when they
do protest they mean business.

Going Back ON the Old PARTY.

Colonel Scott was driving down town
few mornings since; he proffered a seat
to well dressed gentleman, who ac-
cepted, and in the course of the ride re-
marked that his home was in Kansas,
that he had been in the city on business
for few days and expected to return
home that day. Thinking the occasion
a good one for learning something of
the political situation in that state, the
colonel asked him whether or not it was
true that the Kansas Alliance men were
going back to tie old parties this year,
as the Iowa papers were claiming? The
gentleman gave a disgusted snort, and
said, II am sorry to say, sir, that there
is no ground for the claim; the damn
fools beat anything ever saw; they are
twice as strong as they were last year"
Further conversation disclosed the fact
that the gentleman was banker and g

Two Glasses sti.l Ignorant.

There are two classes of men who
have formed no proper conception of
this great farmers movement, and will
never be able to until they get an ingalls,
lesson. That is the old style editorial
Office farmer and politician farmer. Both
have in their day and time had mo-
nopoly of certain kind of influence.
Plutocracy did not think of treating
with the farmers direct; it managed
them through the editorial Office farmer
and politician farmer. What these men
said was considered authority by every
body, farmers and all. But somehow
this new movement has sprung up indie
pendent of them, and they cannot catch
on to it.
They still arrogate to themselves the
same influence and the same prestige,
but they only excite a smile from the
great new movement. The aristocratic
political farmer, like Hatch and George,
Funston and Conger, do not control the
farmer.-National Economist.
