WASHINGTON LETTER.
from our regular correspondent. |
Washington, April 10, 1892.

washington, April 10, lo9z.
Mr.. Harrison is confronted by a
very peculiar situation He must
choose between violating pledge
made to one OF his few personal
friends, and keeping that pledge and
jeopardizing his chance Of being
renominated by antagonizing the
most powerful Senator in his party.
He has this week intimated to Sen
ator Quay, who claims the right to
name the successor to the late JUS
tice Bradley, of the L. $. Supreme
Court, as the price OF hls support,
that he intended TO keep the pledge
made To Attorney General Miller
when he was taken into the cabinet,
and nominate him to the vacancy.
Mr.. Quay told him, it is said, that he
could control enough votes in the
Senate to defeat the nomination, and
more, that if it was made be would
use all of his influence to have the
Minneapolis convention nominate an
anti Harrison man.
Chairman O'Ferrall, Of the House
Election Committee, has given notice
that he will call up the report of the
committee in the contested ele elton
case of Moves vs.. Rockwell, next
Tuesday This is the case in which
Senator Hills name has BEEN very
much mixed up, because of his be-
/ lief that the committee did wrong in
reporting in favor of Noyes, the Re-
publican contestant. 1t is expected
that lively debate will take place
when the report is taken up, and it
will not surprise many if the House
votes against the report of the com
mittee and retains Rockwell in his
seat.
The House has been working very
industriously on appropriation bills
this week. The Democrats are de-
termned to push the work of the
House, 50 that the responsibility Of
prolonging the session beyond the
middle of June or the first of July
will have to be assumed by the Re-
| publican Senate.
The Senate Committee Of Foreign
Relations has turned down the
Chinese exclusion bill, passed by the
House, by reporting the Senate bill
extending the present anti-Chinese
law for period of ten years as 8
/ substitute therefor
The statement is made, but it
lacks official confirmation, that the
State department has reached an
agreement with the Italian authorl-
ties on the question of indemnity to
the families of the Italians lynched
at New Orleans, and that SO 600 is
the sum which Mr.. Blaine has prom
ised, subject to the approval OF
/ Congress, to pay.

And now some of the pe.e-puls

And now some of the pe.e-puls
party leaders in the East, since they
have been run to earth on the two
platform scheme, propose to make
fair weather with the South, by add
ing plank to the platform, ode
msnding the government to issue
legal tender notes, and pay the South
ern stakeholder. for their negroes
that were taken from them at TIL e
close Of the war. To prevent some
saphead third party hooter from say
ing this is untrue, we cite you to the
Weekly Atlanta Constitution of
Tuesday, April ), 1892, and by turn
ing to the 9TH page, at the bottom OF
the 9Th column, you will find u
clause in a discussion that reads
thus:
III they insist on that plank, -
says WI. OSJ, VIC III dud auotuci
to meet it, which will pacify the
Southern people. We will add a
plank favoring the payment of the
Southern Shareholders for their
negroes, taken from them at the
close of the war That's the thing
to do"
Now we submit the above TO the
intelligence OF our readers for their
consideration without comment. -

ATLANTA, GA, April 1.-THE
State executive committee Of the
Georgia State Alliance met here to-
night and unanimously passed a
resolution demanding that all ALI
ances that have Endorsed the Peo-
pies party movement must rescind
such action promptly or surrender
their charters.
The decision of the Georgia ALI
auce will be that OF the order in ev-
cry State and county, if the spirit
and letter OF the Alliance constitu-
ton is complied with. But it will
not be so. The sore-heads and Of
lice-seek ing politicians at the head
of the order has already run it into
politics, and it will soon pass in its
checks it is only question OF a
short time until it will be as dead as
the Wheel.

Hon. y. II. Sewer spoke to quite
a large crowd last Thursday in the
opera house at Hope, Mr.. Sewer
made an excellent speech, and was
atteutively listened to. He is well
posted on the principles of Democra-
cy and the political issues that have
in the past and do to-day divide the
Democratic and Republican parties.
- Hope Gazette.
Mai. A. II. Sewer, candidate for
Congress from the Third district,
addressed our people last Monday.
Johnson Hall, where he spoke, was
crowded with citizens and voters, but
his speech was disappointment to
many Of his friends here. Mr.. Sc
vier spoke at Murfreeshoro Tuesday
and at Washington Wednesday,
I Nashville News.
Quite a difference in the way two
editors look upon Maj. Sewers
speech. Maj Sewer is mighty
nice gentleman, but we hardly think
he will go to Congress from this
district, instead of Tom McRae.

The Dallas (Tex.) News thus
strongly emphasizes the Tariff Re

highway robber.

The opposition to Fishhack has
not vet been able to concentrate
their forces on any man and their
only hope is the timely appearance
of a Ozark boss" Each week some
new favorte is trotted out and word
is passed along the line to "rally,
boys, rally" but the "boys' can't
rally worth cent. = Nashville News.
The politicianers and few enc
mics Of Mr. Fishback may continue
to "beat the brush" but it seems
they can't find any "favorite son"
to enter the list against him. In
this connection, the walls Of the Ar
kansas Democrat, are pitiful to the
ear-will Gen. Reynolds please pass
Bro. Mitchell the camphor: 1t is
sure to be "Gov. Fishback," after
next September.

Lots of lies are being circulated
about Democrats having defeated
the silver BILL" in Congress. Action
on the bill was postponed by them
it was not defeated, a. the tAlrd
party humbug hooter says. AS
country is divided on silver, this ac-
ton was wise, as it would have en-
dangered Democratic success in
November. Tariff Reform is the is
sue of the hour.

Says the Arkadelphia Siftings :;
III Mr.. Sewer had made his speech
on the pertinent political topics
of the day, Friday, and left off his
personal attack on McRae it would
have given him higher place in the
opinion of his hearers. The man
whose only claim for the election to
office is the defects his own jaundiced
vision detects in his opponent is not
likely to win. The general impress
ion made by his talk is that he will
never "set the world afire," either
as a candidate, or as congress-
man.

THE ST. LOUIS CONFERENCE
A FRAUD.

There never was a bigger fraud
than was the so-called St. Louis con-
ference, held in February. The st.
Louis Republic stated that the two
States of Kansas and Ohio controlled
majority of the votes in that
great(?) meeting. This is enough
to prove the fraud of the thing with
out going any farther. Before max
ing further comment we ask our
readers to consider following two
clippings:
DO the country people who are
adopting the St. Louis platform with
such great ado, because they are
told that their friends made it, know
that the White Farmers Alliance of
the ten Southern States only had
sixty votes in that convention Of
over eight hundred votes? Do they
know, that one Humphreys, Of Tex
as, who claimed to represent one
million negroes, was accorded ninety
seven votes in that convention, or
thirty-seven more than the combined
White Alliance Of the South ? Ok
elona Messenger.
Col. Atkinson then went INTO 3
review of the St. Louis conference.
He said there was nothing tangible
held out by that body. 1T was COM
posed of discordant elements. Side
by side sat the prohibitionist and
saloonist, the socialist and protection
ist the religious fanatic and the
atheist, the woman suffragist and
modest Southerner who don't believe
in that kind Of thing. What voice
had the Alliance OF Georgia in that
body? They were virtually dis
franchsed. The white Alliance had
SIX votes, while the colored Alliance
had eleven, all in the hands Of one
Humphreys, who turned them over
to a renegade by the name of Gill
more, who is not even native
Georgian Carrollton (GA.) Free
Press.
And this is the origin OF the So
called Reform % movement now
being so vigorously advocated by
the new humbug third party, mis-
named Peoples party.
Messrs. Bush, Jones, Norwood, ct.
al. first went off after the Green
back movement, then went into the
| Wheel, then the |. l.. p, and now
the humbug Reform is misnam ed
Peoples party, and forthwith they
rush in and embrace it, saying it will
sweep everything before it. The
third party humbug and cry of
sweeping everything" i. now a
stale chestnut. As soon as its lead
ers reap defeat in it this fall-fail
to ride into office-some of them may
want to Ego West" and the small
remnant will again change it's name
and cry Reform. 60
The people are tired of such
"tomfoolery," and want rest. They
know that only in the Democracy
lies relief and succor-that it ha.
not been in full charge of the gov
eminent since the war, but when it
does get in this fall, new era Of
prosperity will dawn upon our couu-
try
