WILSON AND RROUGHTON
speak at PittsbOrO--Prai>e of the st
Louis Convention.

Last Thursday there was meeting
at this place, part of which was public
and part was private. Mr.. Marion
Butler had been advertised to speak.
but he did not come. In his place.
however, came Messrs. n. b. Brough-
ton and Otho Wilson, of Raleigh. AT
the ringing of the court house bell
about $50 persons assembled in the
court room, and the first speech was
made by Mr.. Otho Wilson. He spoke
about half an hour and explained and
advocated the demands of the St.
Louis Conference. At the close of his
speech Mr.. Broughton spoke for an
hour. The greater part of his speech
was In advocacy of the government
ownership OF the railroads. He eulo-
gized in the highest terms Polk and
Powderly, and complimented the char
acter OF the St. Louis convention. He
said that the people had set forth in
the st. Louis platform the demands
which they thought would give them
the relief they desired, and he was
willing to grant their demands, be-
cause they best knew what they want
ed. Throughout his speech he made
no special mention of the democratic
or republican or third party, nor did
he state whether he was a democrat,
or republican, or third party man.
At the close of Mr.. Broughton's
speech it was announced that the al.
lance would now hold private meet.

ing the alliancemen to 90 into the
democratic primaries held last Satur
day. This certainly seems very
strange, in view of the statement "tha1
the alliance has nothing to do with a
members politics." This action must
have been intended to accomplish one
of two things. Either it was an at
tempt for the alliance to capture the
democratic primaries, or for the dem
ocrats to capture the alliance ant
break up the third party. We will
not pretend to say what was the in
tention, but the inquiry naturall,
arises, eff the alliance in secret session
can adopt motion advising its mem
bers to attend the democratic primaries
WY can it not also adopt a MOTTO
,, advising its members to attend the re
!, publican or third party primaries"

The OIcOtt Plan il Dead,

BY Telegraph to the State Chronicle.
New YORK, May 5.-What will al
most certainly be the last meeting of
the Olcott committee, as at present
constituted, for the re. organization of
the Richmond Termina! company will
be held tomorrow afternoon at $3.50
O'Clock. AT that time, it is under
stood that sharp issues will be drawn
which will compel either change in
the committee, radical change
in the reorganization plan, or
both. 1t was currently reported
today that Mr.. Olcott's resig-
nation as chairman of the COM
mittee will be received. His bad
health has kept him from his work
ever since the plan was published and
it is thought that he will retire from
the committee. The report could not
be confirmed. Other changes in the
committee are also looked for, though
it is impossible at present to say what
those changes will be. One thing
however, is assured, and that is that
the famous Olcott plan is dead and
that its early withdrawal is inevitable

The Commissioners recommend placing the
Girls Reform School on the grounds belong
ing to the Reform School for boys. This action
is based solely upon the grounds Of economy
1t il to be hoped that Congress will not follow
this recommendation. Long experience In
schools of this kind has demonstrated the great
error in placing the two sexes Of this class con-
tigucus TO each other. In many similar inst'-
buttons throughout the country where hereto
fore the two sexes have been under the same
government and consequently in proximity
they have been separated and either placed
under different control or KEEP: SO far apart
that they never came In sight OF each other
A few thousand dollars might be saved in the
beginning by placing the girls school on the
farm belonging to the boys school, but in the
end it would be far more expensive.
To keep the sexes apart = very high fence or
wall will have to be built around the girls
school, and then force of officers will be re-
CURED to prevent the boys and girls meeting
each other. Besides, in very short time the
girls will outnumber the boys two to one. The
Judges Of the Police Court have said that the
number Of young girls in this city who should
be placed in such an institution Ia unparal-
lelled. Consequently. should q portion Of the
boys school farm be set apart for the girls
school, in . very few years it would not suffice
and mere land would be required. The officers
Of the boys school say that it nee isan the land
il has. They admit that it has q large tract,
but they say that less than one-third of it is
suitable for cultivation; that every foot that
can be cultivated is now needed for the supper.
OF the inmates, and that the baiaU ce
Of the land consists Of low-lying ma
larial lands, chiefly swamp lands, and
all entirely unsuited for habitation.
The trustees of neither institution favor this
project They condemn it as being impracti
cable and wrong. working great and lasting dis
ssser to both institutions 1t is hoped that the
Commissioners will investigate this matter 10 ore
carefully and consult with the trustees Of both
scbools. and undoubtedly il they do 40 they
will become convinced Of the great mistake il
would be TO carry out their pre- sent recon-
u,eudation Both schools are an absolute
necessity. 1t has been a crying evil for mauv
years that there has been no place to send way-
ward girIs, and now that there is a prospect Of
having such place it is hoped by the citizens
Of the District that nothing will be done upon
tie mere ground Of temporary economy to in
jure the boys school and also hinder mate
rally the good results expected of the girls
school
