We had not the good fortune to lie at Prosperity when the great speech was made, but President Stokes was there for the avowed purpose of defend- j ing the Alliance demands. He heard the Senator’s speech and then made his reply. Why did he not then and there refute the; charge which he alleges the there who would not stand and tamely submit to being called thieves and scoundrels even by a United States Senator. Why is it that we hear nothing what ever of this “infamous charge" from the 2i)th of July to the 8th of August, when it appears in Dr. Stokes' paper? The writer of this did not hear Senator Butler's speech, but has made inquiry of many trust- worthy and intelligent gentle men who did hear it, and they all unite in denying that he said what the Cotton Plant charges him with saying—or anything that could be construed to mean that. • The A y.4-of making purcha*e» " is not in buying the We have the .Trade and Intend to keep it; WHY?
