\ Split in the Alliance.

OF the so Alliance officers, thirty.
three of them, led by Mcdowell
Taylor, Roberts and JellIcorse, went
over to the Third party, and will at
tempt to swing the Alliance after
them.
A reporter of the American at
tempted to interview Mcdowell.
"Mr. Mcdowell, l see you are now
the declared leader of the Third party
of Tennessee ventured the reporter
II cannot say anything to you now
Come and see me tomorrow about
it," replied Mcdowell.
But what is your idea in going
over to the Third party?"
Mcdowell raised himself, and try
ing to look serious over the funny an
nOuncement he then made, slowly
said: "You fellows beat Buchanan
we're going to beat Turney." The
Desha statesman then looked wiser
than ever and refused to say any
thing else.
Editor Taylor, of the Toiler, was
found in his office and J. G. Roberts,
another agitatOr, was present.
what do you Third party people
intend doing?" was asked.
"DO? Why, we're going to beat
Turney, that's all. You beat Buch-
anan."
"How are you going to dc it? Sell
out to the Republicans? was the
next question.
mo. sir. We're going to nominate
\. NJ. Mimms for Governor in our
Third party convention here
June 2S."
Out are you going to desert Gov.
Buchanan?n
1--WE have nothing to do with Buch-
anan now and will not support him,
unless he comes out as an independ-
ent candidate before Mimms is nomi-
mated" Here Roberts calculated
you bet!" Continuing, Taylor said,
That's Buchanan's only chance now"
a. l.. Mimms, who is the Third
party candidate for the gubernato-
rial nomination, ais the best man to
lead the fight, and will accept the
place." said Editor Taylor. 1--WE (re-
ferring to the Third partyites) are go
ing to make heavy fight, and Ten
nessee will contribute much to
the success of the National Peoples
party. We are going strong to Oma-
ha, and will try to bring the next
Peoples party convention to Nash
Vile"
Next Monday every county in the
State, which can muster a corporal's
guard of third party men, hold
county conventions to organize for
work.

THERE are none now so poor as to
do him reverence. Time was when
the Alliance would amend its laws,
change its constitution, come and go
at the beck and nod of one Mr.. Nc
DOwelI Now they have set down
upon him. He led them to the very
threshold of the door of the Third
party, and invited them to follow
him in, but they said to him "thus
far will we go and no further" And
this is the man Mr.. w. o. Wither-
spoon not long since introduced to a
Msury County audience as IAN able
statesman, good Democrat, an hon.
est man, christian gentleman" If
this is the kind of cattle Mr.. Wither-
spoon endorses, it would be well for
the Democrats of this County to keep
their eyes on Billy.

WHISPERS is MAD.
The Grand Jury Indicts Tne Amer
lean, Walter Cain and Others.
John III. Mcdowell the PrOsecutOr-Ht
Thinks He Has Been Seandalized-
Perish the Thought

NASHVILLE, June Especial. j
The Grand Jury this morning re-
turned a true bill against the Amer
lean Publishing Co, Walter Cain
and Horace Cooper, editors, and
]. w. Stout, of Stewart County.
The charges are libel, and the
prosecutor is John Hugh Mcdowell.
The affiant claims that Stout sent
slanderous specials to the American
and used offensive language to the
Ocala champion.
He also charges that the American
has scandalized him many times.
The parties have not been arrested
yet but will be this afternoon.
The affair has caused no little sen.
sation here.

The Alliance conference in Nash
vile was a trick. 1t was q meeting
of Buchanan men, that was all.
What was done was done behind
barred doors and the vulgar herd on
the outside will never know. More
than likely they discussed whether or
not they would admit their defeat
and give up the fight. In few days,
as soon as the word can be passed
down the line, you will hear all the
little Ocalaites singing the same song.
Then you will know as nearly as you
will ever learn, what the Buchanan
conference did. 1t is given out, how
ever, that they did two things; two
things as contrary as any two things
could be; two things as inconsistent
as could be imagined; they declared
against the Third party, and in favor
of the TOiler. They resolved they
would not join the Third party, that
they would not be any part of it, that
they washed their hands of any
responsibility; and yet they adopt as
their regular official organ the regular
official organ of the Third party.
Such hypocrisy! Such deceit! Such
double dealing! The Buchanan con-
ference simply lied. 1t cannot wash
its hands of the Third party in Ten
nessee, and at the same time endorse
as it's official organ the TOiler, an out
spoken Third party paper. This is
not only rank political cowardice,
and rank hypocrisy, but it is rank
fOOlishness.

JUST A WORD IN TIME.

columbia is justly proud of her
Rei ooIs. Few places of its size have
more of them, none have better.
Proud of them all and fond of them
all as this people are, first in their
hearts comes the Public High School.
This is the school of the people, for
the people and by the people. Here
the rich and the poor meet together
Herein lies the beauty of our form of
government; herein is found DemOc-
racy pure and simple. 1t is here that
the moneyless girl and the fatheTless
boy, and the child whom fortune has
not favored, is stood side by side upon
an equal plane with all and merit is
rewarded.
Nothing attracts so large a crowd
to the Opera House as the closing eX-
ercises of this school. In these
crowds there have always been some
t. mar the pleasure of the others and
to interfere with the exercises on the
sage. This seems strange in Column
bia, so proud of its schools. But "tis
true; and pity tits, tits true"
Cannot and will not the authori-
ties take step in time this year to
prevent misbehavior? If they can
not prevent, certainly they can take
pains and make plans to check and
correct it. They should give public
notice now that they will not tolerate
such behavior as was there last year,
and after this notice they should do
what they say, hit or hurt who they
may.
They owe this to the teachers who
have labored so hard for ten long
months to prepare their pupils for
THIS occasion.
They owe it to the pupils who have
worked to acquit themselves with
honor to themselves and credit to
their teachers.
They owe it to the parents who
have watched and prayed with fond
parental anxiety and are there to see
and hear their brightest hopes real
ized.
They owe it to their city, to protect
Il good name against abuse by the
bad conduct of few-a very few.
Let something be done In time.

WALTER CAIN, of the American,
deserves credit for q good many
things, but for two things in pal ticu-
lar. When, in the Nashville Herald
q year ago he first commenced the
one line editorial "OId Pete" no.
body thought the Chief Justice would
accept. But he did. A few months
ago when the Americans editor ad-
Vised Buchanan to withdraw, almost
everybody thought it was a joke.
Now, however, the probabilities are
that the Governor will, not exactly
take Mr.. Gains advice, but will do
what Mr.. Cain says. II he does not,
he is very, very silly. The nom
political, anti Ocalaite part of the
Alliance has been against him all
along, and now that Mcdowell and
the Toiler have taken thu Ocalaites
from him he is indeed without a
following. The fight for Governor is
over. It is Old Pete in a jog. All
that is left to be done is to make the
platform and do the shouting.

NO THIRD PARTY.
Says the Conference of Tennessee ALI

! says the conference OF tennessee u III
ancemen-NIcDoweT Again Downed.
| NASHVILLE, June 1.-The confer
ence of AlIiancemen met here yester-
! day morning and adjourned last
night. The meeting was secret, but
enough has been learned to make it
certain that the Tennessee Alliance
will not be led by Mcdowell into the
Third party. About thirty counties
were represented by seVenty-hVe or
! eighty Alliaucemen.
j. b. Neal, of Memphis, presided,
and w. O. Walker, of Wilson County,
was Secretary.
The utmost effort was made to keep
the proceedings quiet.
The call for this conference was
issued by J. II. Mcdowell, President
of the State Alliance. 1t was osten-
sibly to quelI certain disturbances
which were seen to be arising within
the ranks; but, as a plain matter of
fact, the purpose was clearly to deter
mine whether the Alliance in this
State should affiliate with the Third
party movement.
When this point in the proceedings
was reached and a call was made to
all who were favorably disposed to
the Third party to come forward, Me
DOwell, John Jellicorse and five
others stepped forward.
The opposition then advanced in
a phalanX, and seeing himself beaten,
Mcdowell Joined with the majority
with characteristic grace and discre-
ton.
Resolutions were adopted indorsing
Gov Buchanan and declaring against
class legislation, and for the general
relief of the farmer classes, and a
committee was appointed to dfssem-
mate these resolutions.
The TofIer was declared the official
organ.

The Roadster and the Gentleman.

The Roadster races at the July u
Is meeting at the Columbia Driving
Park are receiving numerous entries
and assurances have been received
from many other owners of fast ami
mails of their intention to enter
Since the participants in this race
will be gentlemen of the town, well
known in business and social circles,
it is needless to say it will be eagerly
looked for and hugely enjoyed.
Why cannot a gentleman drive his
own horse in an honest and exciting
race; feel the thrill of bOyish excite
ment once again in his breast and
prove to the world at the same time
that he has benefited the world in
giving it a better horse than it
would have had had he not lived, and
that he is free from any tinge of the
pool box? By such men as these
and by such drivers as these must
the horse look to keep him as noble
as his maker intended him to be and
elevate him above the low methods
of INSCRIPTIONS hOrsemen.
Mr. A. p Morgan, the owner of
that good PAGER "Pericles" will be on
hand at this meeting and in these
races. Barring accidents" Pericles
hopes to show he is racer as well as
roadster. Then there is y. b. Rains,
"the silent man of the road" it is
said he has given his mount very
fast quarter last week. Even DIR.
Robert Pillow, whom we hereby and
herewith christian "the chesterfield
of the sully," is said to be prescrib-
ing for winner. Bob Williams is
slY; he logs altogether down on the
Morgan mill pike, by the faint light
of the moon, so nobody can tell what
Bob expects to do. Mora Fariss, of
''Barbwire" proclivities, is also very
careful to show only Il four minute
gait when anybody is watching him.
Frank Dale expects to ride behind a
race horse too and it is confidently
believed by many that she can go in
the II pound list. There are Il num-
Der of other probable starters.

BUCHANAN DESERTED.
His Candidacy Abandoned by Mellow
ell, Taylor and Roberts,
Who VIII Attempt to Swing the Alliance
Into the Third Party Column.

NASHVILLE, June 2.-The Third
party idea was rebuked by the Ali
ance conference which was in session
here a few days ago. Mcdowell,
Taylor and Roberts failed in their
attempt to swing the Alliance into
the Third party, but will work on the
rank and file.
The conference adopted the fol-
lowing:
The Toiler, as the official organ of the
! Farmers and LabOrers' Union of Ten
nessee, is in position TO exert great
influence for good i'm educating the
masses on the great economic questions
affecting the interests OF the whole peO-
pie. We feel that it is the duty of our
organ TO fearlessly and boldly advocate
the demands and princi Dles OF our order,
regardless of party, anC that it should
support only such men as shall adopt or
inuOrse our demands as against those
who oppose them, and we recommend
that the brotherhood support and sus-
tain it 50 long as it shall pursue such
course"
The conference adopted lengthy
resolution indorsing Gov. Buchanan $
administration as wise, conservative
and patriotic.
