TIE sUB.TREisURY SCHEME A HUsBUG

Senator Morgan, Of Alabama,
has written strong letter against
the sub-treasury scheme. He eX-
poses its lallacies in a mastery
manner, plainly showing that the
politicians have no confidence in
if, and truly characierlzcs 1t as a
humbug. We give below some
extracts from Senator Morgan's S
letter. which are we'll worthy OF
peruoal
The sub-treasury scheme is OF
Republican origin, aud was I'M
ported in he South as nub 10 the
whale 1t was brought to the
South only for purposes OF mis-
chlei, and to deceive an honest,
true and conliding people.
1t has nearly ACCOMPLISHED its
mission, which j. 10 divide our
people and TO foment strl!e be-
tween them, and il is about TO
give place 10 something better"
that is 10 be furnished hy those
who are excluded from lhe al
lance, and are sill held RESPONSE
bic to lis demands.
| believe that it is the least SEN
sible aud most impracticle plan of
finance that | ever heard Of Yet,
it addresses itself with plausbility
lo those who think it the business
of the Government 10 conduct a
pawnbroker's shop. Ii Is decep-
ton that has already been con
demned 10y the qniet judgment OF
every common sense man who has
studied it.
But ! have not denounced it in
the terms that it deserves, because
many good people have thought
it possessed real merit, and were
quietly uncovering its real wick
! edneSs in their own way. Now
that 1t is perishing under the light
of truth and sound reason, the
men who invented and matured it
it in a darkened recess, and de-
manded the political death of
every man who does not support
it, are crying out 10 the great po-
iitical parties of the country and
ali their statesmen "If the sub
treasury viii not save the country,
give us something better" If
that something better" should be
gwen in answer to this demand,
would those who furnished it be
admitted to the Farmers Alliance
as worthy brethren, although they
might be railroad men, lawyers,
Judges, mechanics or bankers: :
This demand is a confession that
the Alliance politicians have no
confidence in The Alliance sub.
treasury. They already demand
OF The outsiders that they shall
provide something better" ] in
slst that II is too late to call con-
sultalion of doctors after they
have crammed their skill or cure"
bolus dowE the throats OF the peo-
pie and fnd that they need some
thing better"
II they were statesmen, why did
they not see that the country
would have something better"
when they took the world IN hand
to cure it of all its ills and infirmi-
ties
l will steadGastly oppose any
scheme that had tor It's purpose
the destruction OF the Democratic
party aud the dishonoring of its
proud record as The preserver OF
The rights and liberties Of the peo-
pie.
In my opinion, the sub treasury
scheme is a humbue. and those
who understand its effect aud the
purpose with which it was intro
duced in the South, are dong The
country a serious wrong in advo-
eating 1t. .

MISS DALWELG'S GHOST.

Such n perfect gem of a house
as papa secured for Us for the sum
mer. II was aelther too large nor
TOO small; had the flowers and
trees in front and a vegetable gar
den at the back ; was within twen-
tv minutes ride of the station, and
yet stood in the shadow OF the
hills.
at must be a terribly disagree.
BILE soul that could not be happy
there" sad to my mother, as We
looked the place over.
IL hope Miss Dalwell will like
it," mamma said simply, stopping
to lit trailing vine that lay
across The path.
Now, | may ms well say it at
once, that this same Miss Martha
Dalwell was the bone OF COnlen-
liOn in our Otherwise happy house
hold. She was on sold maid" of
about eight-and-lhirty or forty per-
hdps. "A more disaCreeable,
crotchety creature never lived
than she, aud yet mamma clung to
her rs though she were The very
pink of perfection! That, too.
when the woman had no earthly
claim upon her-nO right to,a seat
id our table or a shelter beneath
our ronf. She had the best of ev-
erylhing too-the best room. the
best bed, the best chamber turni-
Iure. At the table the cream Of
the food found ITS way to her
plale--the dainliest piece of fowl
and the most luciOus share of the
frult. All in all, Miss Dalwell was
a nuisance in our house.
'Oh, mamma, Miss Dalwell is
such drag on all my happiness,
such a cloud on every enjoyment"
"Mv dear child, Miss DalW ell is
a very excellent parsonage, and ii
is most unkind Of you tu begrudge
her the benefit of this summers
sojourn in the country"
Il don't. She's welcome to all
the country on earth-all save This
one little spot. | suppose she IL he
here tonight and take possession
of that south room with The dorm
er windows"
| shrugged my shoulders and
tried 10 look The very picture Of
righteous indignation.
"She will come tonight and will
haye the chamber with the dormer
window" my mother said decided
~.
We'll. I'm glad my rooms on
the other side of the house, that's
allIp intent on having the last
word, though | couldn't have my
wav.
Wew waited tea for Miss Dalwell,
who was tu come little after dark
bv the evening train. The house
was pretty well furnished, and
with the few articles Of furniture
which we brought with us eistrib-
ed about looked quite charmingly
in the soft glow of the lighted
lamps. The dining room, with
low windows opening into a veran-
da, was especially inviting

finishing touch 10 the tea table in
The shape Of a blue shell-like vase
filed with while lilies, when the
door bell sounded a peal loud and
long through the house.
at must be Miss Dalweli," NAM
ma said. going Into Tie hall. ~but |
never knew her to ring a bell like
that before"
Sure enough. there was Miss
Daiwell, shaWls and travelling
basket in hand. standing as white
as ghost.
"Oh, my dear Judilh!' she be
gan on seeing my mother, and then
sat down and began 10 cry.

She could sing and she could play,
She could dance from night till day,
She could while the hours away,

She could skate and she conld paint,
She could play the patron saint,

She could swim and she could row,
She could always have beau,
And am sure we all know
She was shy.
She could laugh aud she could prance,
She could play game Of chance,
But she couldn't and she wouldn't,
Make pic.
She could etch and write a book,
She could vanquish with a look,
She could win by hook or crook,

Still I'm sure that none compares

She enraptured and she captared

An Ugly Crime.

A no more fiendish murder has been
committed for long time in this vicinity
than that which was committed last FRI
day night at Hanover, n. IL. As Miss
Christie Warden, accompanied by her
mother, her sister Fannie and Louise Good
ell, was returning on foot TO her home. To-
Gated one mile from the village, at a late
hour on the night in question, Frank AL
my, man, about 80 years of age, jumped
into the road in front OF them and seizing
Christie by the arm, said, ~ want you.n
The mother and sister attempted to defend
her. Almy fired at them but missed. They
ran for assistance. Then Almy dragged
his victim into the bushes from the road
and shot her twice through the head, one
shot tearing out her left eye. When help
arrived the girl was dead, and her body
was stripped OF nearly every arti lie OF
clothing Amy had fled. Miss Warden
was a beautiful and most estimable young
woman, about % years of age. a graduate
of the State Normal School and popular
teacher Almy was former employe of
her father and had attempted to pay her
attention which she rejected. He was dis
charged by her father in April and moth
ing had been seen OF him since. But little
is known OF his antecedents. He repres-
ented that he was from the South, but il
is discovered that he has passed under diff
ferent names. At last accounts he had not
been caught although two or three had
been arrested and discharged. A reward
has been offered and officers are actively
engaged in the search.

Quite little excitement was aroused on
Sunday night by the appearance OF Dep'y
Sheriff Dan Jones and two other sherins
from New Hampshire. A suspicious man
passed through here about .. m, who in
many respects answered to the description
OF the murderer, Almy. He was horse
back and making for Canada as fast as his
jaded horse could carry him. He was To-
Gated at Washington Hotel, where the
sheriffs called on him to give an account
of himself, which he did to their satisfac-
ton, saying he was travelling for Miller
and Houses fruit trees, Beebe Plains,
Canada, and rode horseback because his
horse smashed the buggy and so he was
going home for another team. The man
was well armed and somewhat answered
to the description OF the man wanted, but
letters and papers on his person convinc-
ed the sheriffs that he was not the guilty
party. The $1,000 reward for the capture
of Almy will make it quite an object to
be on the watch for the party answering
to the Globe description of Monday.
