SUB-ALLIANcE charters have been
given up by the score and in many
counties meetings are scarcely held
at all. How many sub-alliances
hold meetings in this county ?
Almost impossible to get a quorum
for any purpose. Where is the en-
thusiam of a year ago? What
sheer nonsense it is to talk about
the alliance gaining strength in
this county or even holding it's
own. 1t is like the grange, the
greenback party and half dozen
other organizations, chat have -four
ished for a year or two and then
disappeared forever. They are
spasmodic III their growth and rapid
in their decline.

Is 1T possible that an old soldier
can vote the alliance ticketp The
only effect the alliance can possibly
have on politics will be to throw
the election of a president into the
house of representatives, which
would probably mean a democratic
president. The South has, and it
is safe to presume always will,
control the democratic party. The
South is bitterly opposed to the
present pension law and will de-
demand its repeal. This is a plain,
business proposition and you should
ponder long and carefully before
you decide to vote against your fin
ancial interests.

SENATOR PETER, in recent in
terview, said that the democratic
party would make its last national
fight in 1892. lie said that up to
this time he had believed that the
republican party would be the one
to disintegrate but had changed
his mind It never seems to occur
to this latter day prophet that pos
sibly neither Of the old parties
would disintegrate. Such talk as
that is sickening when every sane
man ought to know that the
so-called peoples party never can
even become national party.

Grip and pass word politics are
not as popular in this state as they
were last fall.-The president of
the Sheridan county alliance has
gone over to the republicans and
the peoples party of that county
is completely disorganized.- The
alliance ticket in Atchison county
has entirely disappeared, the repub-
licans and democrats having gone
back to their first loves. The cal
amity party is fast disintegrating.-

The Alliance l. Political.

Sue AlIdnc0 u foIluC0I.
IT never pays to spend time in
the endeavor to prove q self evident
truth. Here is what the Free Press
supplement, issued under the dir
ection of the peoples party central
committee SAYS with reference to an
editorial which appeared in the
World q short time since, in which
the following statement was made;
The alliance leaders assured Us
all that partisan politics should
never be tolerated. Ben. C. Rich,
at that time county lecturer, wrote
over his own signature an article
which was published in the WORLD
in which he stated that there never
could he any partisan politics in the
alliance, that it was contrary to
their constitution and profession Of
faith. In the same article, which
we now have on file, he deprecated
the idea of a new party and told
his alliance brethren how they
could obtain all the legislation
wanted in the old parties"
The Free Press supplement en-
deavors to answer the above as
follows:
"He was right and he and all his breth.
rem believed the old parties would extend
a helping hand bnt they we're badly mis-
taken and all have discovered new
party is their only show to gain the re-
forms desired"
Knowing that we had the record
evidence at hand, they were COM
PEELED to admit our statement and
it is now officially announced that
the Alliance is political party!
In order to excuse a deliberate.
willful violation of their Constitu-
ton they use the argument Of the
little boy who did it because he
couldn't help it." But that state
ment is absolutely untrue, and we
sincerely hope the writer does not
live in this county and was not adj
vised as to the facts. 1t is we'll
known that the alliance, almost
from the very beginning, ignored
every attempt toward reconcilia-
ton. It is we'll known that the
republican party offered every con-
cession, only asking that the
alliance obtain the legislation they
wished through the republican
party. They were even asked to
name their own candidates, provid-
ed they would accept a nomination
at the hands of the republican
party. To our shame, in the light
Of recent events, we make these ad-
missions. In the language of
another: "We petitioned, We re-
monstrated. We supplicated," we
almost FRUSTRATED ourselves at the
foot of the alliance throne, suppli-
eating them to return to the fold.
Your statement of the reasons
for your course is not true. You
were controlled by a few men who
cared for nothing but Office for
themselves and who counselled you
to violate your solemn obligations,
trampled upon your constitution
and now resort to deception to
Justify their course. Another issue
like that will drive every self-repect-
ing man out of the alliance. "Oh
that my enemy might write a book"
has a strong application here. We
hope the Free Press supplement
will continue to issue.
Life is too short to spend any con-
siderable portion of it in noticing
such nonsense and we only call
to it because we are sat-
isfied that before a week we will
hear it again reiterated that the
alliance is non-partisan organi-
cation.

A HEAVENLY HONEYMOON.
A Young Couple Found Locked in
Each Others Arms-Dead.

NEW York, April 2O.-A young
couple registered at the Grand Union
hotel, FOrty-second street and Fourth
avenue, Sunday as p. Bertrand and
wife, and were assigned to Room DS. a
large room on the third floor. Tonight
at $50 o'clock they were found dead in
the room from gas asphyxiation-
locked in each others arms. They had
employed the old familiar method
of inhaling gas through rubber
tubes held in the mouth. On the
woman's breast was a large and
beautiful bouquet, evidently purchased
by the young man for the occasion of
death. None about the hotel knew who
the couple were, but they were evidently
Germans. He was of light complexion
and she was dark. The Young man was
last seen about the hotel alive Yesterday
morning. and the fact that there was
anything wrong about room was dis
covered by the chambermaid reporting
that she could not enter it or get anV
response to her knocking. When the
door was burst open it was found that
the couple were in the bed
wrapped in each others arms. The
bed had been pulled out into the
center OF the room to a place directly
uHueI lhe plS ciidnueller, so as TO give
better opportunity for their work. The
man was about twenty-five years old,
and the woman twenty-five. They left
four letters, two to Mrs. Miller, of 21O
East Ninth street, one to the coroner.
and one to a woman in Williamsburgh.
The remains were removed from the
hotel tonight with some attempt at Sc
crecy. the undertaken removing the
plate bearing his name from his wagon.

ALL HANDS 'ROUND.
Iyyo Murders and a Dozen As
saultS in One Family.

NEW YORK, April 20.-In Hoboken at
about quarter of 1 o'clock this morn
ing Angelo Gabotb, thirty-five years
cid, Of New York, murdered his mother
ln-law, dangerously stabbed his father
in-law, and was then killed by Como
quito Chinchella, a son of the murdered
woman. A general fight followed, in
which GabOth'S wife was stabbed, and
also her brother. Antonio Chinchella.
His wife and their sons, Conoquito and
Ansello, aged eighteen and twenty
years respectively. lived in three rooms
at No. 1J5 Grand street, Hoboken. The
house is tenement. The Chinchellas'
daughter and her husband, Angelo Ga
both, were visiting the Chinchellas last
night. Gaboth was a shiftlesS fellow.
Mr.. Chlnchella had saved up some
money. and there is no doubt that Ca
both knew about this and wanted it.
1t looks as If his visit were planned for
the sole purpose OF securing it, and
it is suspected that he contemplated
murder when he went with his
wife to visit her family. Last night
Ga0oth's wife slept i'll one room with
her mother and Gaboth slept in the sec
0nd room with the elder Chinchella, his
father-in-law.. Chinchella's two SONS oc-
NNPASN' viz lAillo 1OOuis al IL .OO " ClOCa
this morning, while all were soundly
sleeping, -Gaboth arose from his bed.
and, Withaa stiletto in his hand, went
dntO his mOther-ln-iaw's rooms. The
next instant shrek rang through the
apartment. 1t lasted but an instant,
however, for Gaboth with one blow had
sunk his stiletto into the abdomen of
his mother-in-law. The cry of the old
woman startled her husband in the next
room, but the sound not being repeated,
he rolled over in bed and went to sleep
again. Gaboth's wife, sleeping with
her mother, made no sign OF motion, re-
naming perfectly quiet. The blood
from her mothers wound ran over her,
but still she did not stir. 1t seems,
therefore, that she was well aware of
what her husband was doing, and it
looks as if she were party to the
plot to murder her own mother.
Gaboth stole back again into the room
where old Chinchella slept, and a mo-
ment later he thrust the stiletto into
the back of the latter. He meant to end
the old mans life with one blow, but he
missed the vital spot. AS the blow
descended Chinchella gave cry which
woke up ConoQuito, his son, who was
sleeping with his brother in the next
room. The two brothers armed them
selves and rushed upon the murderer, a
dozen shots were fired, and then Gaboth
fell to the floor dead.
