upon tho receipt " the news, published In lHE
RICHMOND DISPATCH, that John /. Davis, lornier-

Washington, and later IL was whispered that the
engagement was broken oil.
The State business agent OF the Alliance re-
ports that the general business In his depart
ment is from % 70 100 per cent. greater man
last year. Tho total amount that year was

Treachery!

| Treachery!
Kelly and Crimmins have grown frantic.
They realize at last that the people have
prepared to crush them, and this know.
| edge has goaded them to frenzy.
| Yesterday they issued the last order In
the fight. 1t instructed their henchmen to
knife Esston and vote for oDonnell.
In this there is nothing speculative.
1t is as true as gospel.
1t was not that they loved O,DonneII
more, but they hated EIIert worse, and
that prompted them to the most cowardly
an6 vicious act ever perpetrated in muni-
cipal politics.
From the dingy little room at I6 Third
street, which reexs with the odor of bad
cigars and vile whisky, Kelly sent the
orders forth.
Ex-Convicts Creighton and Northey, who
are two of their most servile tools. were
sent Tor and told to pass the word along
the line.
So faithfully were they obeyed that II
was known all over town before nipbtt,,,
and cry angry protest went up.
Men who take but little interest in poli-
tics as a rule grow wildly indignant when
the story of treachery was told them, and
Democrats and Republicans alike made
up their minds TO vote for EIIert,
Is 1t any wonder that such a decision was
reached by decent mon?
just think of such combination as
Keliy-Crimmins-D De Young and O,DonnelI
ana Try TO picture IT you can, the disgrace.
not only to the city but to the entire state
of California.
Is there a decent man in the citx who
does not revolt when he s.ops to com
slider IL?
With Crimmins and Kelly filling the
places i'm the City Hall with their heeler.
ODonnen in the Mayors Office and De
Young in the Senate, what would be the
result?
IL WouIu mean the turning back Of tho
hands on the dial of progress for ten
years.
1t would mean the wholesale 10 otiny OF
the city's treasury.
1t would mean the inauguration OF n
new era of Doodle.
IL would mean the wholesale escape NJ
criminals.
1t would mean all kinds of crime In the
management of municipal affairs.
That is just what the treachery of KelIv
and Crim.nins means, unless the coed
people combine on EIiert, which they
| will do.
Eiiert Will be elected and the damnable
conspiracy defeated as it should be.
Treachery is rampant in the ''Republi.

with our executive committee from the
women's auxiliary committee on any sub
1eet whatever We certify with deiber-
alton that lt is literally and exactly
true that "the woman's auxiliary co mmit-
tee is independent of the executive COM
mittee OF the Citizens (Anti- Dive) League.
and constitutes no part thereof and has
acted on It's own responsibility in issuing
their manifesto, without conference with
our executive committee which mas no con-
nection with and has not advised or indorsed
the same" and that the wOman's auxiliary
committee has never, since the 9th day of
august, 1872, In any manner communicated
or conferred with our executive committee e.
Whether ii is mistake to assert that that
committee withdrew all connection from or
conference with, our executive committee
must be judged in the light of the fOrego-
Ing facts. We cnncede that there was no
formal notice of withdrawal other than that
signed by four representative ladies as
above stated but in view OF the actual facts
In the case, any mistake in the phrss-
eology of our former certificate must be
deemed lmmaterial to the main question
as 10 the respon visibility for the manifesto.
We regret that Mrs. Gray. highly estims-
bic and worthy lady, whose motives are
above suspicion. should deem it necessary
tltcate as entirely false" but also TO i'm
pugn our motives In making it. Our only
motives were to disavow all connection with
or sanction OF the manifesto, and having the
impression that the woman'S auxiliary
committee had intended from and after the
9th Of August, 1892 20 withdraw all con-
nect0n from or conference with our eXecu-
tive committee, we did not intend to mis-
represent its position.

Being upon the stage at the antidiye
meeting on Sunday last, and witnessing
the entire proceedings, | need not saw
that the thrilling and elastic description
which has just been shown to me in
the Chronicle presents some scenes which
neither nor any OF the gentlemen with me
saw did see lady come toward the plat
form, which is some five feet higher than
the floor upon which the lady stood and
also saw Mr.. Burton stoop down and speak
to her. but the frantic gesticulation and the
yengeful motions which would have caused
said lady to fear being struck, or anything
OF the kind, l certainly did not see, nor do /
thlpk any one else did, Tor the simple rea-
son that Mr.. Burton made none such.
On iDqniring the reason for the ladv's
coming to the platform j learned that She
desired 10 refute statement which had
been made by Chairman Flood, who had
staied tnst some three months ago the
ladies OF the W. {. L. o., which at The in
ception Of the Citizens League had ex-
pressed 4 desire to also aid In the move
ment, had formally Withdrawn, and that
she desired to say that they had not so
withdrawn.
The great audience realized that It was
not the proper way Of saying what she de-
sired, and storm of disapprObation mani
Tested itself. Rev. Mr.. Filben. | believe
approached her and with Others thew re.
tired to the ante-roOm, and subsequently
suc BcHllOuIau Calnc upon the platform and
stated that the lady had asserted that while
Few OF the ladies' connected with her So
ciety had Withdrawn their assistance and
sent letter to the league to said effect, that
1t was unofficial, etc.
1t is said that 'ali is fair In war" Per
haps the same is held to be true of politics.
and that msrepresen tation, abuse and tor
turing OF facts go that thew present anv-
thing but facts Is also fair. Certainly n O
expression of any kind is spared or asser-
ton withheld to present anything but the
truth and reflect upon those who have
honestly. and impartially united with the
Citizens League to do something for the
benefit OF the fair city in which we live by
certain journals who sympathize with the
foes OF tie principles which said league de.
slres to maintain. l have read several such
during The canvass, which, like the startling
account OF Sundays meeting referred To-
had not the shadow of truth 10 their com
position, were in no wise fair or truthfu
statement, but directly opposite to truti
and made out OF whole cloth for the occa.
sion.
