DANA DENOUNCED.
The Southern Alliance Farmer Goes
for the New York Editor.

for the New York Editor.
ATLANTA, GA, March 31-The Southern
Alliance Farmer, which finally made its
appearance to-day, roasts Editor Dana Of
the New York Sun, because he dared to say
in a recent interview with a newspaper
man in this city that the alliance was q
socialistic institution seeking the establish
ment Of an arIstocracy OF farmers. The
alliance paper claims that Mr.. Dana knows
nothing at all about the farmers. Dana
is without doubt says the editor, "the
editor OF the most disrespectable paper In
New York OF the whole country. The
paper he edits is a fit representation Of the
scum Of the town. He reeks with the cor
ruption Of the sewage Of the great city, on
which he feeds aud fattens" In conclusion
the editorial pronounced Mr.. Dana a
journalistic thief, and recommends that
all alliancemen who take the Sun
at once aunul their subscriptions In
still another editorial Mr.. Dana is
dubbed "Ananias" and accused of having
brutally snatched the life preserver from
the BODY of defenseless girl aboard sink
ing steamer in order to insure the safety of
his own worthless carcass. In a third edi
torial the Farmer, evidently sore over its
recent trouble with the printers, calls on
the Legislature to intervene and put an end
to strikes aud the troubles resulting from
the action of labor organizations generally.

just rendered verdict of guilty against
John w. Lewis, who was placed on trial
yesterday morning charged with the muir
der of John W. Rives April %, 1890. The
defendant was represented by Messrs. Hol-
ton & Son and E. P. Paggett, while the
state interest was looked after by Solicitor
w. G. Brantley. Col. Paggett made the
opening argument for the defendant, and
was followed by Col. K. g. J. Holton, who
made one of his best efforts. The eloquent
and logical Brantley made the only argument
for the state. His speech was said to be one
of the best that was ever delivered in the
court house. The jury retired ct o'clock
tonight and was out about two hours. The
prisoner has been perfectly calm during the
trial and the verdict did not seem to excite
him in the least. His aged father has been
in attendance constantly

was an absolute necessity. No oral argu-
ments will be made. The attorneys on
both sides will file briefs. which will at
once be taken under consideration by the
commission. A decision is not looked for

almost putting him out. In the twenty
second round aud last Dixon forced the

elry store Of Adolph Walter, s. Newark

skylights. The store is in little one-story
frame building, and the burglars had very
little trouble in making their way into it.
The safe in which Mr.. Walter keers his
stock at night stands in the rear of the
store.
HIDDEN BY A CURTAIN.
A curtain when drawn obscures the safe
from the view of persons passing on the
avenue, which is the principal thoroughfare
of the city. The burglars, once in the
store, drew the curtain behind the safe. A
hole about five inches wide was then drilled
into the side of the safe, and diamonds and
other jewelry valued at $50, 900 were taken.
The police did not learn of the robbery
until informed of it by Mr.. Walter this
morning. Chief Murphy says the job did
not take more than one hour. and that it
