COl John T. Crisp.

Col. John T. Crisp, OF Jackson
county, was in Mexico to-day to
place his son, Greenville Crisp, in
the Fleet Military Academy. Col.
Crisp, while in Mexico, was the
guest of his friend, ex-Gov. C. H.
Hardin, and several "reminiscences
were INDUCED in, which were both
interesting and pleasant. Col. Crisp
thinks the Alliance men of Illinois
are making a great mistake by not
voting for Palmer. He says Pal
mer's principles are nearer what
they want than they can find en-
bodied in any man who could be
elected, and that 1t is the princle
and not the men that counts any
way. He thinks such a movement
on the part OF the ''big three'
would have strengthened the AL
lance all over the United States.
Col. Crisp was delighted with Mex
leo and her enterprise, and says we
have two of the best colleges-one
for girls and one for boys-that
there ia anywhere within his
knoWledpe.
