BRUTAL STUDENTS.
Horrible Punishment Inflicted on an AL
legged Coal Thief

Horrible Punishment Inflicted on All Al
legged Coal Thief
SPRINGFIELD, o., Nov. S-There is
considerable indignation among the bet
ter-class students of Wittenberg college
over an outrage perpetrated last evening
on Will g. Pugsley, a student from South
Charleston. A gang Of masked students
dragged Pugsley under hydrant and
saturated him with water for five min
utes. They then strapped him flat to
rail and roughly carried him to brook,
slapping him in the face en- route, and
after clipping his hair in places, threw
him, still fastened to the rail, into the
brook and left him. His cries finally
brought assistance, but not until he was
nearly exhausted. The barbarians ex-
cuse their action by claiming that Pugs-
ley was caught taking coal from other
students, but this is denied by Pugsley.
The college faculty will probably inves-
tigate the matter.

OPIUM SEIZED. ="
six Thousand Dollars Worth of Dope
Captured in Detroit

Captured in Detroit.
DETROIT, Nov. 7.-That an immense
amount of stuff is being smuggled across
the border here was illustrated by a
seizure made to-day The seizure was Of
$4,000 or $1,000 worth Of opium at the
Michigan Central depot The stuff was
consigned for Chicago For wear past
Deputy Collector Tillman has had evil
dsAce TO the effect that large amounts of
opium were being taken into this port
without duty, and yesterday he received
Information that a lot would be taken
across the river last night. Accompanied
by deputy, he spent nearly all night in
Windsor and returned at $3.50 o'clock to
point below Twenty sixth street, where
it was expected the stuff would be
landed. After spending some time there
they came to the conclusion that they
had been outwitted, and hiring man to
watch the vicinity, they went home.
This morning the watchman said after
Mr.. Tillman had left two men landed
with small boat and hired an express
wagon to take a couple Of trunks to the
Michigan Central depot. The watchman
identified the trunks at the depot, and
the deputies lowered around them to find
the owner. Not until 2 o'clock did he
appear, and then pleasant-looking man
stepped up and, displaying two tickets
for Chicago, had the trunks checked.
He had with him two large satchels, and
before he could place the checks in his
pocket deputy arrested him. The man
gave the name Of A. j. Morrison, Of Ply
mouth, and the deputy told him that it
would be to his benefit to point out his
comrades. The prisoner agreed to do so
and they went into a waiting room where
Morrison probably gave his partner a
sign to leave. They went to the street,
where Morrison showed fight and struck
the officer, but the latter soon had the
smuggler in irons. He was taken before
the United States Marshal and then
locked up. The satchels contained so
boxes OF opium and the trunks 1872 boxes
each, marked IN Chinese characters.

THE CAUSE.

The Atlanta Constitution must have
had an eye on North Carolina when
writing this:
ITO day, wherever there is a ten
dency among the farmers to go into
the Third party we may be sure the
tendency has developed out of the folly
of some of the small politicians or the
senseless policy of some Of the so called
Democratic editors"
Again it says:
There was never anything heard of
the Third party in Georgia until GER
tain Democratic and pretended leaders
undertook to set in motion the ma
chinery of prescription and intolerance.
We should think they have gone far
enough to discover that their system
of dragooning is not as popular now as
it has been. And yet some of them
have not gone far enough. There are
would be leaders in Georgia to-day who
would be glad to drive the farmers out
of the party. They would like to see
it as small as the Republican party,
for they see in that contingency an
opening for them to play the part of
Buck and his little coterie."

LETTER FROM PAMLICo CO.
GRANTsBORO, N. &.

GRANTSBORO, N. -.
Mr.. EDITOR:-I have just read my
companion, The PROGRESSIVE FARMER,
and am so enthused from reading it's
valuable contents l must proceed to
write a line | have read so much
about the diabOlical meanness Of the
pledged gentlemen whom we have sup
ported and s Mt to Congress to work for
our interest, feel that though am
a young man, and am not so well in
formed as some of our Alliance breth-
ren, that it is no more than my duty
to write and infOrm the brethren as to
our standing, and also to caution them
to be on the alert We, Prospect ALI
ance, No 1,O7S, are solid on the St.
Louis platform. Let all be so.
Let us watch these fellows whom we
have sent to Congress, for they and
others will come again, with more
power than before; they will come full
of their binding elOquence; they will
come again with their faces wreathed
with smiles, a hearty 'handshalze and
how are your babies?' but regard
them not Maybe these words will be
spoken again: Gentlemen, there is
no justice in your paying 10 cents for
the jack knife and 81 90 for the Ordi-
nary plOw trace, when they should be
bought for 5 and so cents, respectively.
And my fellow citizens, if you will
support me in this campaign such shall
be attended to-"
Of course it is attended to, but howe
is the question.
Senator Vance, when your term ex-
pires, you can slowly but steadily
make your way home. But how are
you going to face your constituents?
Are you a conscientious man2 Ii you
are, you will pass them with your
head dropped. Yes, you will feel full
OF guilt You will know that not only
men in their might are frowning upon
you, but God is displeased with you.
No, sir, we will never recognize you
again. For we can no longer trust a
lying tongue and deceptive heart.
Brethren, leave off selfshness, cling
not to the rotten old parties, for they
are what have brought and forced upon
our necks this financial yoke of oppres
sion which is 50 heavy it will soon, il
not removed, choke us to death. Come
into this powerful army, young men;
nothing will help you in education
any more than reading the reform
papers. Come, all ye labOrers,
let us play hand in the primaries.
They want us to vote with them, but
they want us out of the primaries.
Look what we have donszfor this
great and invincible republic and yet
we are nothing. You are men, my
fellow farmers; do you know il, does
not that heart of yours throb, replete
with patriotism. You love liberty and
you must have it; be not influenced by
office seekers. Keep your courage,
for you will need it before long.
They think that they will never let
us have the Sub Treasury bill passed,
nor will never give us free silver nor
anything which will materially benefit
us. But brethren, if we act as a unit
throughout this country (and there is
nothing that will check u.s. we must
have reform or we perish. God has
promised to help us if we help our
selves. And to get it, we must trust
no more the sweet-mouthed rascals.
Be not tickle, but stand in your own
shoes, and at last you will reap your
reward. Respectfully,
GEO. A. CATION

THE SITUATION IN SOUTH CARO-
LIMA.
DARLINGTON. S. @.

DARLINGTON, S. 6.
Mr., EDITOR 1t is refreshing to read
the manly and patriotic sentiments OF
The PROGRESSIVE FARMER and partlcu-
larly such an able and noble review Of
the situation as that contained IN the
"Open Letter" of L L. Polk of March
29th. 1t is a favOrite device of tyranny
to denounce as demagOgues and office
fpekers all who dare to raise voice In
behalf of an oppressed people and
MANY sensitive men are driven out or
the field and the usefulness of others
abridged by such tactics, butt great
crisis like this, upon which so much
depends, we should make great effort
to steel ourselves against such taunts
and remember that they are simply
uhe desperate tactics of our enemies.
AS I am not a member Of the ALI
ance (being a lawyer and therefore In
eligible) although in entire sympathy
with them, and as | have never been
an office holder or office-seeker, and
Jhave given life long evidence Of my
contempt for the mere ward pOlttl-
clan, think 1 can afford to take a
deep interest in the political situation
without suOiugating myself to the
Acharge of being a demagOgue." But
53be the consequences what they may
2shallnever surrender my independence
and freedom of speech for & fear favor
is the hope of reward" l have been
pot little amazed that non Alliance
nen in this State and elsewhere have
made war on the Alliance, not seeming
% recognize that the fight of the ALI
ance' is for the general benefit; that
they are making war upon no legiti-
mate business done in a legitimate
Iay, not upon the lawyer and doctor,
IT on the pettifogger and quack, not
q the honorable merchant or banker,
pt on all who abuse their positions to
AXE unconstitutional advantage, not
even is this war made on capitalists
but only on such as have wrOngfully
smassed fortunes at the expense of the
upeople and now hold their accumulated
capital as a menace TO their liberties.
Looking at it from a purely material
it seems to me that any in
telligent non Allianceman would rec
7gnize that until the farmer produced
jhe dollar there is nothing for us law
yers, doctors and merchants to con-

MARTIN COUNTY AGAIN.
Bro. McCaskey Thinks a Drummer Did
the Work.

DARDEN's, N. @.
MR.. ITOR:-YOur paper issued on
the Sd of May contains an editorial
headed Watch for Liars, - also a short
item copied from the Netcs and o.
SerUer, saying, " Hurrah for the Mar
tin County Alliance, the Martin County
Alliance repudiates the St Louis plat
form and instructed the delegate to the
Butler Conference to vote against the
Third party" signed L l thought
when I read the above article that the
L. was significant of some savory NOR
sci that goes by another name when
prepared, and l was not mistaken.
At the county convention on the 7th
[ learned that a Mr.. Lamb, who is en-
gagged in the drumming business, be-
1ieve for this county, wrote the article
for the NelUs and Observer. Iapproach-
ed the gentleman and demanded to
know upon what and whose authority
he had written such an article He
said upon the authority of j B. Cofield,
the Lecturer of Martin County ALI
ance. I asked Mr. C0ffield if he told
Mr.. Lamb that the Martin County
Alliance repudiated the St. Louis plat
form, and he answered in the presence
of Bro. T. l. Green, that he told him
no such a thing.
Now, Mr., Editor, I can furnish evi-
dence from a hundred men that the
Martin County Alliance did endorse the
St. Louis platform, and by so doing the
delegate to the Butler Conference was
instructed not to back down or com
promise said demands. I will give you
the task Of locating the LIAR. for there
is certainly one loose, if 1t is myself,
and think can prove otherwise.
In the coug ty cOnVenl)n IN at VII
iamston on the 7th your scribe was
unCeremoniously read out of the Demo
cratic party, because l had written an
article criticizing the National Demo
cratic and Republican parties. The
article was printed in The PROGRESSIVE
FARMER, and nothing that Alliancemen
or reform Democrats could say or do
would induce the Chairman, j. B.
COfheld, to listen or put before the con
vention the motion that be allowed
to speak in defense of the charge
brought against me for criticizing the
National Democratic party.
Fraternally,
T. f. McCAsKEY, Sec'y.
