"HOXEKT HAK’N FRIESD AND I'BO*
TECTOK.”
The conspiracy cases against
the members ot what has been
known as the "Honest Man’s
Friend and Protector,” in the
United States toiirt were argued
on a demurrer file I on the ground
that the conspiracy as charged in
the bill ol inuictnieiit was a gen¬
eral conspiracy, when it should
have been charged as a conspiracy
against a panicu ar | cr o 1 or wit¬
ness. judge Newman sustained
this demurrer, Underthis decis¬
ion the members belonging to this
organization can now be indicted
for every burning or depredation.
We arc informed that they will be
indicted in three eases, il not
more. It looks gloomy tor these
men, some of whom are clever fel¬
lows, but if they (under Judge
Newman's ruling) are tried in
three cases lor conspiring to in¬
jure Ak ; n, Ledford and Stonei', we
tear they will get the worst of it.
James Wigginion, YVnw L. Fields,
Cicero I’adgctt, Hamilton Rich¬
ards, MonUville HHbcrt, David
Wheeler, Thomas Rowland and
Wm, McGaha. are in jail awaiting
the meeting of the grand jury,
when they will be indicted, and
will likely he tried in June. it is
generally believed by the friends
ot these men that it would have
been better for them to have
gone to trial under the old indict¬
ment, and that this ruling of Judge
Newman’s will cause more cases
to be made out against them.
This hand of men was broken
up over a year ago and when ar¬
rested several of them turned
state's evidence and by that means
those who were tried in the Supe¬
rior court here were convicted.
Seven arc now serving life senten¬
ces for arson—J. A. Lansdown,
Seaborn Lansdown, John Forres¬
ter, Tom Fendley, Eli Fields, Tom
Fields and Harrison Jones. Ten
are now in Atlanta jail. George
Coffey and Patton Millis turned
state's evidence and are out on
bond. Six left the country, to
wit, Arch Grizzle, Andrew J. Lans¬
down, Alex Richards. Joe Rich¬
ards, John L, Coffey and Geo. W.
Fields. A complete detailed ac¬
count of the whole matter was
published in the Herald at the
time of the breaking up of the or¬
ganization.
Commenting upon what we said
two weeks ago about Col. George
R. Brown being one of the best
prosecuting attorne) s on the Blue
Ridge circuit, Bro. Ellington says
he hopes “that the Hon. George
will feel complimented, • • N ow,
we simply mentioned a fact, and
we don’t know now, nor did we
consider before, how Col. Brown
would feel about it. But, knowing
the Herald as he does, we be¬
lieve he would consider a compli¬
ment from it to bg more genuine
than one which came from any of
that class of journals who are in
the habit of boot-licking every one
who has authority, We would
like to know how many lawyers
there are within the limits of this
circuit who can excel Col Brown
as a prosecuting attorney. He de¬
serves what we said about him,
but r.o more.

Most people cry out against
prize fighting, and yet nearly ev¬
erybody is .interested in reading or
hearing about it. This unquench¬
able spirit of hero worship has
caused people everywhere to ad¬
mire the superior ability of John
L. Sullivan, the uncopquered
American,pugilist who has lately
retired from the prize ring, This
man may rightly be called the
champion ot champions, for he de-
Icndeil his title against coiners for
nine years, and during that time
met but one man who was able to
give liiip anything li ve aj respecta¬
ble fight. Time, haul training and
debauchery have told heavily on
Sullivan, so he has absolutely re¬
tired from the prize ring. Frank
1 „ Slavin, . A .... Malian,
. an us is now
the champion of the world.
The little clippings that Bro.
Peterson puts between his patent
medicine locals are copied by the
Constitution and some other
pers and credited to the Piedmont
Republican, liis subscribers say
there is nothing else in the paper
worth reading:
Tom WaUon’* Views.
At a big Alliance Saturday, rally in Me-
Duffle county i last . c . i r Co,,.
C" - "™" Ion, Wat,on
rousing speech He appealed to
the farmers to stand tinned and
fight together shoulder to ,ho„|.
d, r for the reform, that have, been
inaugurated. In .peaking of on-
cational matters he declared in ta-
V or of the state not only furnish-
ing teachers but school books for
the children. “Before we vote
another dollar to the colleges," he
said, “this should be done ”
Here are other extracts from his
speech: platform there
“Ot the Ocala
has been much discussion, But
let us sec what its plan contains,
l irst, an income tax. An income
tax paid us $37,000,000 annually.
Sixteen years ago the miliioaires
squealed so loud, however, that it
was repealed. These fellows ride
about in private cars and sail
around the world in private yachts.
An income tax now would pay
four times as mnch as then. Then
added to this would he $10,000,000
from whisky and tobacco; from $12,000,- the
000 to $15,000,000 ex¬
press companies, and $10,000,000
to $15,000,000 from the insurance
companies. This would give us j
niore than $400,000,000 of revenue |
without taxing the farmers a dnl-
lar.
“2. I’o make the necessaries of
life tree of duty.
“3. To abolish national banks.
4. To control or own railroads.
We should also control or own the
telegraph and express companies.
“These are our principles. The
man who says we want commun¬
ism is mistaken, and wc arc not
after arraying one class against
another.
“Again we want $50 per capita
in circulation. That will make
prices go up and money easier to
get.
“There is another thing I want
to tell you. In 1873 our national
debt was $4,000,000,000. Wc
have paid over $2,000,000,000 ot
it, but on account of the shrinkage
of labor it will now take more to
pay the balance than it would have
taken originally to have paid il
all. The general increase in
wealth has been about four and
one half per cent, but you and I
have to pa) - from 12 to 50. The
men of large means are getting all
of the money, those of small
means losing all.
“Cleveland stands just where
Alexander Hamilton stood, even
more so. Hamilton favored two
metals as the basis of our curren¬
cy. Cleveland says gold should
be the autocrat; with this single
standard you get no more for your
8,000,000 bales of cotton than you
get for your 6,000,000. The
measuring rod of value being the
gold standard, the products of la¬
bor are at its mercy. Whey they
say Cleveland is a Jeffersonian
democrat 1 deny it. His is the
same as the Hamiltonian doc¬
trine of national bank favored
classes, concentrated capita' and
powerful incorporated wealth
You may call it the Jeffersonian
violin if you like, but it is nothing
but the old Hamiltonian fiddle,
and it's got to get out of here
We want no more of it.
“Tammany is the merest rag
tag and bobtail set of gutter snipes
It wants to dictate the policy to
us, and it says, like old Kelly said,
‘if you don't take our candidate
we will knife yours.’ Let the
New York yankees go. They hate
you. They wilt neve forget abo¬
lition and nullification. The wes¬
tern people cry to 11s to come to
them As a proof that they mean
it, they pull down Ingalls and his
bloody shirt and put in a man in
sympathy with us. They came to
Ocala and ordered their senator: -
to vote against the force bill. The
bill was defeated. Now they have
called us. Shall we join them?
“I believe the next democratic
nominee will come from the west
He w.ll stand squarely on
Ocala platform, and he will stand
on it because it is right. Every
time we talk of the Ocala platform
our enemies cry word ‘subtreasury.' I
pledge you my those con¬
gressmen's letters were the sim¬
plest I ever saw. I here was not
enough weight of political econo¬
my in them to burden an ant. I
never went crazy on the subtreaa-
ury, but its underlying principles
are as sound as a dollar. Labor is
the basis of value. The products
of labor arc the things money is
intended to move. Money is the
wheel, and labors products the
burden to be moved. The volume
of the one should be in proportion
to the volume of the other.
of the principles of the subtreasu-
ry is to proportion the money to
the business of the country. And
this li to issue the monev
to the people national without the inter-
vcntion of the banks. A
is to take from the ,' planter,

If Perrv goes to the senate
Rucker will be found swinging on
behind like a .ai bucket.
The W. & A. commissioners have
been at work for several weens.
It is believed by some that they
will give the lessees the amount of
taxes paid to Tennessee and will
pay lor the rolling stock and other
articles that could have been re¬
moved and used by the 1 ssees,
but that nothing will be paid in
the way of betterments for the
fixtures of the road.

Did you ever pause to reflect
that you an a nuisance of the first
water? Do you know that the
neighbor from whom you borrowed
this v.cry paper you are now read¬
ing is often greatly inconvenienced
by you? He subscribes and pays
for the paper for his own itidividu-
a l use and benefit; it is not done
for your pleasure, education or
comfort. He may not tell you so
to your face, because the class ol
men who subscribe and pay lor a
newspaper arc good, kind hearted
fellows; but they do a good deal 01
thinking all the same when you
ask for their newspaper. Stop
borrowing, and you will stop mak¬
ing a nuisance of yourself.
