Letter from Il. d. Robertson

Mr.. T. B. Robertson, late president OF
the farmers alliance, and who presided
at the democratic congressional con-
vention, held in this city last week, has
written the following letter to the War
renton Mder:
1t seems due to large majority of
the farmers of our county and State
who Joined the Farmers alliance" that
something should be said to defend
them from any-the least-taint of
"third partyism." Having at one time
been member of the alliance myself, |
know the professions made to farmers
and the inducements held out to them
toioin this organization. Before taking
upon themselves the obligations of the
order they were solemnly assured that
there was nothing connected with the
institution which would in any wise
conflict with their "political Uieecs."
Without this positive assurance there
would have been very few farmers in
this good old democratic county of
Fauquier who could have been induced
to unite with the alliance.
1t is only just and right here to say
that this profession and promise was
not kept by those originators of the or
der who were holding ever in the fore
front their own selfish promotion. The
strongest evidence of the fact that faith
was not kept and that farmers were de-
ceived is to be found in the further fact
that the Farmers Alliance" if it lives
at all in the State of Virginia to-day,
does so only in name. The third party
has destroyed it.
The Farmers Alliance in its origin,
under its former constitution, bylaws,
professions and pledge, was an institu-
ton believed to be capable of accom-
plishing much good and working
out many beneficial reforms; but alas !!
for it, it is no more, because
that conservative element which formed a
large portion of the order has been forced to
Withdraw from it. The alliance should not be
held responsible for appointments IT has never
approved nor for uticran0es made and pub
lished in its name that are in absolute oppo6i-
ton to its principles and chartered rights
The alliance of the past and the third party
of the present are as widely distinct as are
democratic or republican parties. Had the
alliance ever claimed to be a political body or
failed TO repudiate sucn charge when
brought against 1t, the conservative farmers
of the South never could have been puFsuad-
ed to cooperate with it and the membership
would have been circumscribed to the few
whose personal ambition is fist before their
country's veal.

he was so sorely needed at the latter
place. James Harris and Shell Hale,
both prominent citizens of the city, say
that when the miners showed up Col.
Woolford and SOME of,his men kept out

brother towards around and they all
ran like sheep, almost causing a STAN
pede in the entire force.

IT Is REPORTED that President Harri-
son. in his coming letter formally ac-
copting the nomination of the Mime
apolis convention, will attempt to dis
sipate the natural dread Of the Force
bill entertained - the people of the
South. The only way by which he
could do that would be to declare
against the iniquitous measure referred
TO- and that he couldn't do, because his
party would not permit him. When
the national republican convention
adopts that bill as part Of its platform,
when State republican conventions do
likewise, and when all the recognized re-
publican leaders, even those abroad,
Senator Hoar, for instance, approve 1t,
and recommend its passageifthe repub-
licans shall gain possession of all the
branches of the government next No
vember, Mr.. Harrison couldn't go
back" upon his record in favor of the
Force bill if he would, and he wouldn't
if he could.

The switchIncn,s Strike.

The assignment of 5000 troops at
Buffalo, n. Y, and other points affect
ed by the railroad strike, and the
movement of trains on the New York
Central, has caused feeling of depres-
sion among the striking switchman.
They saw New York. Central trains

day with frequency that the leaders
said WAS impossible to the company
without the aid of the striking men.
The Erie and Lehigh Valley companies
paid OF their striking switchman at
Buffalo yesterday Each of the COM
panies has definitely stated that they
have mt hand enough men to replace the
strikers and to handle all their cars,
if protection should be assured the new
switchmen. The Lake Shore road, one
of the Central's western feeders, had
enough men in its yard last night to
man the usual number of switching en-
gines. They arrived Thursday night,
and will, undoubtedly, be put to work
to-day. The Erie yesterday moved five
trains with ten switching crews, and

Der Of men nominally employed in
sending out the Erie's daily quota OF
twenty trains east-bound. Chief Ar
thur, of the locomotive engineers, left
Toronto yesterday for Buffalo to in
quire into the report that the engineers
may become involved in the strike.
The strike has caused a scarcity of
beef and other food products in New
York. Several steamers were unable to
leave port, because their consignments
of cattle were tied up on the railroads
at Buffalo. Chicago shippers, owing
to the strikes, are turning overall their
business intended for the New York
roads to the Baltimore and Ohio and
the Pennsylvania.
The New York Sun of to-day says the strike
is broken The New York Central has full
complement of men and is taking all the bus
mess offered. The other roads are gradually
getting into shape again.

A VIRGINIA LADY SwINDLED.-There
is great excitement at Bellefontaine, o.,
over the embezzlement oflarge amounts
by one John H. Sweet. He would get
large amounts of money from people
over the country, who would confiden-
TALLY send it to him to loan for them.
It is astonishing how successful he
worked the loan scheme and what large
amounts of money he got his hands on.
One of the most distressing cases of
Sweets robberies was that ofMrs. Lucy
Gore, of Loudoun county, Va. Mrs.
Core has sent the man $500 to loan
for her. She supposed that everything
was all right until a day or two ago,
when she picked up q paper and saw
an account of Sweets embellishments.
She lost no time in engaging attorneys
to prosecute her case in Ohio, and suit
has just been brought in her behalf in
the sum of $500 for the money she
advanced Sweet. Sweet telegraphed to
Bellefontaine that he would be home
last night, but nothing has been seen of
him and it is not believed that he will
venture home.

SAVED BY A MASONIC CHARM.-Alar-
tinsburg, w Va, had another homi-
eide yesterday, and was in state OF
considerable excitement for several
hours. James Daily, who is head
driver for Harris's Circus, was shot by
Cornelius Veney, q negro boy seven
teen years of age. He died yesterday
evening. Teney was employed by
George F. Evans, who had put him out
in his lawn to request the circus men
not to walk over it. Daily, while walk
ing through, was told by the negro to
go back or he would shoot him; but
thinking the boy was attempting to
scare him, kept on. The boy pulled
out q revolver and shot, the ball enter
in his head above the left ear and lodg-
ing at the base of the brain. The cir
Gus employees soon became an angry
mob, and catching Mr.. Evans, were
about to lynch him, when he showed
his Masonic charm and tho manager in
terferred and he was released. Evans
disclaims all knowledge of the boy
having revolver, and says he had
only given him orders to request per-
sons to stay off the lawn. Veney was
lodged in Jail. and no moro trouble is
feared. Daily's home is in Philadel-

THAT THE idea that an alleged 'in-
Jury to one is the concern of all" does
not, when made operative, work to the
entire satisfaction of all, is proved by
the fact that the strike ut Buffalo, by
interfering with transportation, has ad-
vanced the price of beef The advance
of two or three cents pound in the
price OF beef is as nothing to rich rail
road stock and bond holders, whose loss
will be made good, but it is vastly diff
ferent with poor people, who have TO

BOILED ASLAvE TO DEATH-A letter
from Fee, the capital of Morocco, re-
ports that atrocious cruelties practiced
by the Sultan's chief eunuch, Bubilai,
ave caused great excitement there.
It seems that Bubilai killed a little
negro slave by slowly pouring boiling
water over the child's head from kettles,
An inquiry having been made, it was
ascertained that this child was the fifth
slave that had been murdered this way
The letter states that, although the
Moors are accustomed to cruelty, an
appeal was made to the Snlten to punish
Bubilai, but that the Sultan destined &c
do so on account of the high market
value of the eunuch.
