Elder to the York County Alliance we take the follow ing extracts: Gentlemen and Brethren: We have again'assembl'Ml to consider what is for the best interests of our order w hich ha* tM’cu one of the greatest educational fac- torsever inaugurated w ithinnur bound*. It has steadily pursued its course of ini- provemem. Intellectual]). moraily. so cially, and 1 would like to say Hnan- ciallv. but that is w here the ruti conies in. On lids line we find many obstacles in the way. The Alliance has mapped out a line of action which would bring financial Improvement, viz: co-opera tive methods of buying and selling, but few of our (Msepie for lack of means and the scarcity of money have l*een able to take advantage of the prescriiied meth od*, hence the question arises. “Why this scarcity of money,** ha* been agi tating the minds of our people in every quarter. It has been traced to our na- tioual legislature, hi giving the control of mir financial system Hum the hands of a favored few, who have so manipula ted as to contract and expand the circu lating medium at w ill, and now have it in such shape that n.*» per cent of' the business of these I’nited State* is done on credit. It is asserted that six corpo rations, with ten men, can lock up over one half Uie money in circulation any dav they see fit. It ha* also been as serted that if the farmer* of the South were in a condition to sell a cotton crop for cash ami lay it up, there is not enough money in circulation to pay for- It. It is further asserted that if the far mer* of the Northwest could sell tlieir w heat for cash and lay it up, there is not money enough in circulation even to pay for it. Business failure* during the last 25 years have increased thirty fold. The wealth as derived ftom agri cultural products during the last ten year* is estimated at 3 |a*r cent. The mortgage TmlelHedness of the wealth producer* has increased to alarm tug projiortlon*. With all these facts and more before us, is it not time for our people to pause and consider what means this concen tration of the wealth into the hand* of a few and whither are we drifting? If we will butreler to history, our fate i* plainly evidenced. When Egypt went down, two per cent, of her population owned 1)7 percent, of her .wealth. The peopfe were starved to death. When Babylon woutdown, 2 per eetrt. of dtcr population owned ail her wealth, and the people starved. When Persia went down, I per cent, of her population owned all her wealth. Route boasted of her etermd city that sat upon seven hills and ruled the civilized world; yet when her wealth was confined to 1H00 men, who owned and controlled tiie then known world, in all her glory and pomp, she went down. Now after a thorough study of tiie sit uation, our representatives in conven tion assembled at .St. Louis, December, 1SS5), formulated amL-promulgated cer tain demands, which if enacted into law, it wa* thought would effect a change and give relief to our oppressed people. When the principles embraced in the first demand was formed into a bill, it w aij hooted at and scorned by our representatives. It originated with the farmers, a set of ignoramuses, who did not know what they did really need. This hill was killed and buried «o deep that it never could he resurrected, but at the next nieetingof our nirtionaibody at Ocala, Florida, these demands were again reiterated, with some little modi fication*. and are now standing out in hold relief, and have stood the test for a jieriod of over three years, and I am happy to say are grow ing more and more in favor with all classes. Even some of ^ho*e Congressmen who made fuh of them, after considering them, found no fault in them, and even uo.w admit that our financial system i* wrong, had wrong, and tliat a change must be eff ected. Some of them s|>cut their last summer vacation traveling in Kuro|>e for the purpose of studying the financial systems of those countries, in order that they might gain some idea* w hich would aid them in ferreting out the w rongs and enable them to arre»t existing evila. Our heart'* desire and prayer is “so mote it lie.*’ It has been charged (hat the Alliance wants the sub-TreaMiry aad nothing else. We have always asserted and still declare that we are not wedded *o the e ready and plau. when ever proposed, but we don't propose to accept any siuctrack issues. We want something that will place the wealth producer on an equal footing with all .other classes, occupations and pj;pfes- slont. Tnc prices of agricultural prod ucts, tin* basis of all wealth, have be eh so depreciated that it now takes about three times as much to procure a dollar a* it did ten or twelve years ago, whilst the salaries of all professional men have that numiter* of our professional men, realizing the situation, do not exact the fee* a* fired by their associations, but are united w ith u* in our efforts to free the toi ing masses from the grasp of or- f ^anized monopoly. After the formu- ating and promulgating of our de mands, the Alliance was charged with beinga secret political organization, and ha* been bitterly assailed by politicians, the secular p-ess and sjuxtijators. But w ith all it lias gone forward in the even tenor of Its say, educating our people in the science of au economical govern- ment. irrespective of pitriy, nnhci tiie assault of its opponents and the ef forts being made to cause dissensions in its ranks and break up the organization. •.It lias been asserted tliat the Alliance is weakening. 1 deny tiie assertion, dome of the members have a. low ed Unfit- name* to be dropped from ther'rolls tlirmtgh'ficgligeuce, not keeoFfig their dues paid up, but having Tfnbibed tiie when the signal fpr^ketion is given, they will rally toUhe call and prove their Rllegiancw'fo these principle*, for they arc as>tfred that they are founded ujxon eq-justice ami truth, and re alize Die fact tliat it is tlieir duty to support and maintain them if they ever expect to be relieved from t|ie power of money to oppress. We, are now passing through a bitter experience. Our lands, in fat t all property and tiie' products of the soli, Iiave depreciated in value. Our business men claim to lie in a strait and arc indifferent about making advances. They say they can-net carry on their business unless their customers will give them bankable paper, which very few are able todo,asserting fiat North ern capitalists arc not inclined to let tlieir money come South on account of their unsettled condition. Our short crop and the low price of cotton has made it wttr*e-thairhard this year, but i hope it w ill prove a blessing to us in disguise and lie tiie means of teachings us some useful lessons. One im|M>rtant lesson that we should learn is to depend more on ourown resources, raise all that t* necessary to sustain man and beast at home and not latmr any more for tiie en riching of our north-eastern task mas ter* who can do nothmg for us farther than to accumulate wealth at our cx- peti-e. They are now seeing that we have been at school and that tliere i* a probability of a change being effected, they are witholding their money, which we alj thought w as an ad\aiitage t«» u«, but ha* been of greater benefit tp f hew. We arc now on the eve of one of Hie most exciting |M»litical campatgiv* we have experienced fni years. M v advice t * all is not mallow ourselves to become mi absorbed in politics a«* to neglect the cultivation of our crops. Let us work our crops so as m lia\e (tread for Katy and tiie baby.

The house was situated in a deep * piece of tiniiier, and wa* about a mile off Die road. It was approached by a circuitous trail through the woo*l*, and was in such a position that it was only discovered by accident. For years it has been a matter of frequent occur rence that traveler* have disappeared when traveling along thi* road, and no trace of them was evwr after diacovered. On several occasion* search has been made for tiie missing parties, but such search has always been frnitlese. Lately the United Smtea marshals have been making it very warm for the outlaw* which have infested the terri tory, and the result is that many of them have fled to other parts Until the storm blows over. It is evident that the house spoken of was Die rendezvous of some of the robber*, for it was built for that very purpose, as w evidenced from its gtrncturc. It is» a am ilt cabin, of three room*, leading one into the other m a line. Near the door which lead* from the first to the second room i* a largo trap door, which a person passing from one room to the oth*r would be compelled to step upon. This trap door swings down ward, and is held in place with an ar rangement similar to that used on scaf folds, and it was so arranged that a person in the rear room could spring the trap and send the victim to the bot tom of a deep hole. It was evident that it was used for this purjiose, for the bottom of the hole was covered with jagged rocks, arkl on many of these could be found dried blood and hair. No indicitidns of remains could be found, but the ground near wilt be thorouxhlv searched by the officers.
