The Farmers’ Movement.
SPIRIT OF THE NORTHERN AND WESTEBN PRESS
IN THE NEW PARTY.
The farmers of Lexington county, Illinois,
have held a convention. They adopted a
platform which is a model of perspicuity and
conciseness.
The declaration sets forth, in one brief stn-
men were in rather an advanced stage of in-tence, the “opposition to railroad steals, sal-
t^xication, superinduced by frequent pots
^tionsfrom Fernandez’s handy bar, the deceased,
who vai as full probably as any struck an
o!d man who happened to be present and who
was physically unable to resent the insult. A
voung man, Auguste Macarty, who is some
way related to the old man, interposed, and
took the latter’s part. Thereupon Demas-
nailer and Macarty had high words, during
which the latter was struck by Demassallier;
the blow not being returned because of the
interference of two policemen. Macarty had
a friend present in the person of Nelson Sev-
erin, the barkeeper, who went to Demassallier
and remonstrated or abused (it is impossible
to ascertain which) him for striking Macarty,
whom he rated only as a boy, much too young
and physically unable to stand before him.
This brought in the fourth party to the in
significant dispute, which was then suppressed
as it was thought, by the interposition of the
two policemen stationed at the hall for the
purpose of maintaining order. This was not
the case, however, for when the ball broke
up, just before daybreak, a disposition was
evinced on the part of Macarty and Severin
lo renew the difficulty, and Demassallier was
heard to say, as he left the hall, “You know
where to find me when you want me.”
At an early hour yesterday morning the
two friends, Severin and Auguste Macarty,
met and went together as far as the corner or
Bienville and Homan streets, where the latter
stopped, while Severin proceeded on to the
hou-e cf Demassallier, as is alleged, the
bearer of a challenge.
At the honse he found the door closed, and
all his rapping was not sufficient to arouse
the profound slumberer inside, who, after a
night of dissipation, was wrapped in stupor
and sleep. Not to be deterred from fulfilling
lus mission, and made persistent by being
half drunk, Severin took advantage of a win
dow which opened on the street as a means
of ingress, and climbing through found De
massallier occupying a bed alone, in the
iront room. The latter was aroused by a
vigorous shake or two, and jumping up de
manded why he was molested and what was
meant by such intrusion. Severin stated
why he had come, whereupon he was ordered
peremptorily by Demassallier to leave. This
he refused to do, whereupon a scuffle en
sued. Demassallier being the aggressor, and
getting the best of it, in as much as Severin
was thrown upon the bed and severely beaten
about the face.
The latter only attempted to defend him
self in this rough-and-tumble fight, and so far
succeeded as to snatch a chair from the hands
of Demassallier, with a demonstration being
made against his (Severin’s) head. Arriving
at the conclusion prfsently that this room
was a fe\v degrees hotter than he had calcu
lated on, Severin made for the door, and as
he did so Demassallier snatched a heavy
pitcher from the washstand, and delivered a
iVemendoas blow on the intiusionist’s head,
shattering the crockery into a hundred pieces.
This was followed by another with the frag
ment that remained on the handle, whereby
the now, thoroughly demoralized Severin was
cut very badly in the hand as he attempted to
ward eff the blow. Getting clear of the house
eventually, he found himself in a most unen
viable condition, for the blood was streaming
from his head, his nose, his wonnded hand,
and his left eye showed signs of having col
lided with a heavy fist.
He walked demurely to the corner of St.
Louis and Roman streets, but turned, as if
actuated by some sudden impulse, and re
tracing his steps, took np a position in front
of the honse from which he had been driven,
and there remained for some minutes. He
leaned against a tree in an attitude indica
tive of a resolve to bide his time, for very
soon Demasallier looked from the window
and told him to leave. Severin replied sul
lenly, “I want satisfaction.” It was then
that Demasallier threatened to use his pistol,
which he produced, with these words, “I
told yon to keep away from me, and if you
don’t go, 111 shoot you.” Undeterred by
this threat, Severin merely repeated that he
would not leave, whereupon the former, true
to his word, leveled his weapon and fired di
re ctly at Severin, as be stood only the width
i t the banquette from him. Whether it was
because the latter was drunk, and was, there-
! >re, in a condition whereby he was unable to
apprehend his great danger, or whether he is
i.atumMy brave, it is Certainly trne that he
acted very courageously at the moment, fer
when the pistol was leveled at his head he
faced his man, without moving a muscle, only
raising his left shoulder slightly as the ball
grazed his neck, but not changing his posi
tion. After firing the shot, Demassallier left
the window, and m a moment passed out of
the door onto the banquette, pistol in hand,
and dressed only in his underclothes.
Stepping quickly np to Severin? who still
leaned against the tree, he took hold of the
latter’s shoulder, and with his pistol dealt
Severin a blow on the right side of the head.
With that the two clinched, and in a second,
almost, Severin was seen to raise a large and
glittering knife, which he used with great
dexterity and fearful effect. Demassallier en
deavored to use his pistol, but he could do
nothing, for the man with the knife, appreci
ating the advantage in favor of his weapon at
close qnarters, clutched his adversary with
the left hand, and pressing him backward
gave him blew after blow, many of which
were warded off, as Demassallier, now at
great disadvantage, threw his arms wildly
about him. His merciless loeman, os relent
less as a savage, pressed forward with a hand
upon the throat of the now feeble Demassal
lier, and eventually got him jammed against
the facing of the alley gate, where he dropped
and attempted to crawl away on his hands
and knees.
It was at this stage of the fearful butchery
that the few who had nerve to be spectators
were horrified, for the maD, now far gone,
made an effort, with the little strength that
remained to him, to escape the cold and re
lentless steel, his fiendish adversary walked
deliberately by him, and, bending over the
crouching form, delivered seven more stabs,
four of which were derp and gaping incisions.
When Demassallier, his strength nearly ex
pended, crawled off the banquette, Severin
left him and went off towards the comer of
St. Louis and Homan streets, bis long knife
recking with warm blood and his clothes red
dened with gore from his own wounds and the
gashes he had made on the body of the unfor
tunate Demassallier.
The latter, appearing to revive for a mo
ment, regained his f
b steals, and every other form of thiev-
Thtfc are just five planks in the plat-
* they are broad enough to cover the
whole si Slion

and not the man the o$ C e.”
buch a declaration \nd such a platform
must commend themself to all honest men,
whether they be farmers or denizens of lhe
city. These are principles hat will suit every
body but the representative politician of the
day. The men who thrive \t the expense of
the people on salary grabs, G»edit Mobiliers,
protective tariffs, railroad extortion, and offi
cial corruption, will have no sympathy with
them. All otheis will belieTe in them. — Chi
cago Tribune.
The Des Moines Register (organ) begins to
look upon the Farmers’ Movement in Iowa as
something that requires “every Republican
to consider well the situation and come for
ward to the help of his party.” The party is
now in danger. Perhaps this sentiment, from
the Buffalo (N. Y.) Express, also an organ,
better expresses the situation:
When a party becomes so obnexious that it
can do nothing but die, it ought to be buried
out of sight. After it has become thoroughly
decomposed, perhaps a new political tree will
grow up, absorbing some of the material of
the corps. But it takes time.
The San Francisco Chronicle declares that
the Granges in California “already control a
sufficient number of votes—votes that are not
for sale, and cannot be bought—to decide the
election” in September.
Dwight, III, July 11, 1873.
To the Editor of the Chicago Tribune:
Sir: I inclose you for publication a few of
the letters I have received during the past
week in acknowledgment of the receipt of the
Livingston County Platform. The letters
speak for themselves. We are following up
the platform by circulating in our own county
2,000 copies of S. M. Smith's thorough go
ing, sensible, and well-conceived speech, de
livered before the farmers of our county at
Pontiac July 4, 1873. His speech fully sus
tains our position “in declaring ourselves ab
solutely free and independent of all past
political connections.’'
Truly yours, S. T. K. Prime,
Sec’y Farmers’ and People’s Anti-Monopoly
Party of Livingston county, 111.
From D. W. Dame, Chairman Executive
Committee Patrons of Husbandry of the State
of Illinois:
Lanark, III., July 3, 1873.
I have to acknowledge the receipt of your
postal card with Livingston County’s Decla
ration and Platform. It is sound. It has the
ring of pure metal, and will stand the test of
the people’s fire. Lead on. Carrell county
sends down the line of the army her greeting
and invites Livingston county to the front.
The world mover. Yours truly,
D. W. Dame.

feet, staggered, and rais
ing the piRtol, to which he had clang all
along, fired an ineffectual shot at the retreat
ing form of Severin. With this he entered
the door of his honse, and casting himself on
the bed was found there dead by those who
followed him after the lapse of a few min
ntes.
When the difficulty commenced in Demos
sellier’s room ia the morning, there was only
one person in the house besides the two men,
who gave her name as Laura Foster. From
her the whole transaction, as it occurred in
the house, was obtained, and she further al
leges that the two men were drunk at the ball
on the previous night.
Severin, who is now in the Trerne
whither he went and surren-
after the encounter, is a young
man twenty-four years old, and nearly white.
When interviewed yeaterday morning by a
Times reporter, he showed signs of very rough
treatment, beiDg blood stained and bruised,
wearing his arm in a sling, having one of his
hands bandaged. He does not deny having
done the entting, but alleges that be had no
intention of nsiDg his knife until he was shot
at (three times be says), and struck over the
head with a pistol. Thinking then that his
life was in danger, be used the knife; with
what effect let it be seen by the foregoing ac
count.
Macarty, the accesaory, ij also in tbeTreme
station, but professes to know nothing about
the fight, but admits that he accompanied
Severin a part of the way, as he went in the
direction of Demasaallier's house; and, far
ther, that the mission of Severin was to ar
range the preliminaries of a fight between
himself and the deceased, as the latter bad
agreed to fight in any manner that might be
decided upon.
At the post mortem made by Dr. Cooper it
was ascertained that there had been fifteen
wounds inflicted, twelve of which are describe
