RALEIGH, n. c., Feb 13.-I must
say that read Mr.. w. A. Graham's
letter with some degree of surprise in
which he says | reflect on him as trustee

willtully misrepresents. l wish to say

sam Jones says the hit dog is the one
that hollows. know Mr.. Graham
gets 81 900 for his arduous and labori-
Gus services as trustee. The work
consists in making his report and
drawing his pay, and Of course is op-
posed 10 the killing the goose that lays
the $1,000 egg. Mr. Graham is a
kind of door keeper to this tund you see.
1t seems that this B A. fund is the
milk in the cocoa. Mr. Graham ad-
mits that this fund cannot be returned
to contributors until the order ceases
to exist. Does any man with thin
bic full of brains believe that the
third party will ever declare the ALI
ance defunct while five counties alone
can, in name, keep it alive. One other
little thing l know Major, and guess
you do also, that is the B. A. fund or
the proceeds of it at one time
was drawn on for $1,000, at another
about $1,000. l am informed that
nearly all this has been replaced. But
if you can use $2,000 of this fund, why
can you not also use $40 600, or all o.
il? | said this fund of $35 900 car
and may be used, not had been, to dis
integrate the alliance and disrupt the
democratic party. The executive com
mittee has the control of the finances
of the alliance. Capt. Johnson's tern
expires in August. He is democrat
Does any one think he will be re-elect
ed? Mai. Graham's term and also Mr.
Worth's expire at the same time. Nov
can Mr.. Graham answer the public a
to who will control after The next Stat
alliance?

that It was possible to view him as an

with England looming before him, the
idea occurred very forcibly that he had

He was tall and rather stout, but had
a good-tempered, smooth face, with

fortunately so straw-colored as to resist

had cast OFF u%p-country clothing. and
