TO save an open rupture in the otherwise
harmonious national meeting at Ocala that
we sacrificed our manhood. / believe, as
you did. that it was the intention to divide
that committee and besmirch the character
Of the true and loyal man that Polk is, in
order to defeat him in the national presi-
dency so that MacUne and his accomplices

far from McGrath being in favo of reliev-
ing Macune of the odiuln which should have
followed the investigation. he was really de-
sirous OF expelling him. but to save the Al
lance from impending disaster he sacrificed
the best interests of the farmer to save Ma
cune from complete disgrace.
But the day of reckoning is coming.
The wool will be pulled from the farmers
eyes: then Macune will appear in his true
light before their eyes and we will then
have firm and undivided organization, out
side of all secret and political ones. that

a month previous to the death of John
Amory Lowell, the judges father, in No
vember, 1881, the bill was filed in Lowell's
and Gray's court in the suit of the Ameri-
can Bell telephone company against Prof.
Judges Lowell and Gray still held their
stock, and when the Dolbear case was de-
cided in January, 1888, as noted above, it
jumped from 15S to 22S. So the loan rested
through all these trying and doubtful times
where it had been placed by those controll-
ing the American Bell company. Cases
were likely to come up at any time, and in
fact another suit was begun and was re-
ferred to ex-Judge Lowell, who has just

this country is SO much money represented
as at Newport. A comparatively plain cot
tage rents for 5000 year, while the cost
of building and maintaining one in appro-

Newport is resort only for the wealthy.
The town is possessed by millionaires.
From its situation it is comparatively in

rich men who summer there are deter

The mansion of Robert Goelet, which

winds along the cliffs for four miles. A
superb velvet lawn stretches down to the
walk, and those fortunate dwellers in this

rupted view of those who go down to the
sea in ships and are lulled to sleep by the
never ending dash of the waves at the foot

Seen from the ocean the Vanderbilt pal
ace is effective against the blue sky, but a
closer inspection fails to discover any art

fed to suit the requirements of modern

strength of the original style. Then there
is an extremely ugly white marble wall
about the place surmounted by marble
urns, and the whole effect is that of a
metropolis rather than a dwelling. The
grounds are small, also, which makes q
bad impression.
