Went Not with Them to the Work.

There is small class of farmers, some
few in every community throughout the
whole country, who are taking no part
in the great fight against plutocracy.
Many of them imagine themselves too
eminently respectable, to go into the
ranks with the soldiers; some are so hide
bound with ignorance and prejudice
that they cannot work in harmony with
any one. But if they had any conscience
and self respect whatmust be their feel
ings when they come to share the bene-
fits that have been purchased for them
by the labor of others, labor they in
creased by their opposition or indiffer-
ence? The Patrons of Husbandry during
their period of active life, though their
efforts were not for political reforms to
the extent Of the Alliance, still accom-
plished a great work for the farming
and laboring class, and that in spite OF
the opposition of this same class of
''eminently respectable farmers" who
are now 8 k;b27src3 Is t'n Alliance
This class, whether it knows it or not,
is real enemy of the people and Of it
self. 1t is fighting on the side OF piu-
tocracy against the people.-National

ity Of the farmers are for the Peoples
party today. Every body knows that
large numbers Of the mechanics in the
cities and towns are Of the same mind
as the farmers, and a good many people
know that many business and profess
'sional men are also ready to join the.
movement whenever the farmers lead off.
The politicians and daily papers deny
this but every body knows that it is true,
and if it were not true the papers and
the politicians would not find it neces-
sary to SO persistently deny it.
But now an effort is being made to
organize tho voters into Democratic
clubs.
The bosses want to make things Sc
cure.
Think Of it, having to organize Demo-
cratic clubs in Georgia to keep the voters
in linel
There isn't any Republican party in
Georgia to organize against. What, then,
is the necessity of organizing Democratic
clubs2
Is To fight the Peoples party sentiment
Just that and nothing else.
They propose to prevent any Peoples
party organization by organizing DEM
ocratic clubs and tying the voters up o
year ahead of the presidential election.
And that is why we have started The
Peoples Party Paper.
We propose to let the voters of Geor-
gia and of the whole country know that
there is a Peoples party in the south,
and that the movement now has the
sympathy and will surely have the votes
of a majority of the voters in 1892.
We intend that the, people of all sec
tions of the south shall have a paper that
is not controlled by the politicians and
through WHICH they can learn the truth
about this mighty movement of the
masses.
That is why we have started this
paper. That and to watch that no side
track is connected in any way with the
Ccala platform so as to run the Alliance
off of the main road and into the ditch.

Tile bible tells us that silver was
used as money in Joseph's time some
thirty-five centuries ago. History in
forms us that silver has circulated as
money ever since. The poor people OF
the United States, that great and en-
lightened nation, are tolling late and
early for silver and the rich are schcm-
ing early and late to get it away from
them. Itmust be good money or people
would not work so hard to get little OF
it. Then why not put it on equality
with gold, the other circulating medium? :?
If silver is money why not treat it as
money? There is a cry that silver dol
lars are clipped. Who clipped them? Ii
our statesmen are men, why don't they
make an honest silver dollar? Isn't
thirty years long enough to make an
honest dollar? Why do honest men in
congress let the gold owners keep them
from making honest money out Of sill
Yer? When will the gold owners grant
congress permission to be honest? BY
placing silver on the same basis as gold,
the western states will have more
money, because silver is western pro-
duct. The high rates OF interest will be
lowered in the west and the brave, but
long neglected pioneer, viii not have to
send SO much OF his hard earned wages
east. His family can be better clothed
j;,nd more OF the children can go to
school
Ii our statesmen will treat silver as
honest money, AS they do gold, the west
will receive Blessing that shall go as a
wave, blessing all thatit touches even to
the laborer on the Atlantic coast.
Silver has stood the test for abont
1900 years and proved itself good
money, then why can't cur statesmen
stop blathering and go to work like
men. ss*.

Of issue is an obsolete piece of monetary
machinery. They maintain that there
should be neither money nor currency in
circulation, except such as is coined and
issued by the government. They main
tain that nothing should circulate as
money which is not money. They de-
iland Of the government that it issue an
ample volume of money, consistinE, of
gold and silver coins and treasury notes,
all legal tender, for. all debts, in ali
sums; and that all other issues of pre-
tended money be suppressed. They fur
ther demand that when money lenders
are incorporated as a bank, the rate of
discount and the amount of profit to be
earned shall be strictly limited by laws
which cannot be evaded by agreement
or contract. They know it to- be propo-
sition sound in law and equity, that
when the government creates an arti-
fetal person or corporation, such cor
poration being the creation of law pos
sesses no natural rights of any sort. But
when the government confers upon it
the legal right to own and accumulate
property, it is the right and duty of the
government to strictly limit the amount
to be owned or accumulated, and to pre-
scribe all the conditions under which it
may exist or do business; which condi-
tions are always subject to review, to
control and to revocation by the Great
ing power.
So then the government ought to issue
all money; make all money legal ten
der, in all sums, for all debts; determine
the amount to be issued and establish by
law the maximum charge for the use of
money.
The taxing power of government is
the chief attribute Of sovereignty and

The revenue is the state. A state with

the existence of the state.
The sovereignty, whatever form it as

TOPICS OF THE TIMES.

Dr.. IH!zcy's Punsent Comments on Some
of the Most Vital of Alliance Issues.
The great money lenders of the west
are the banks. The great money. bor-
rowers Of the world are the corporations
and the millionaire spectators. The
banks OF all countries are internation-
ally combined in vast world embracing
money trust. Like other trusts the de-
signs OF this money trust is to limit the
oNput Of money and so to increase its val
ue; or, better, its command over values.
It appears, then, that banks are natural
enemies of corporations and millionaire
spectators, and of all great industrial
enterprises and prey upon them. Why,
then, do not the great corporations join
with the people in demanding of gov
ernment restrictions upon the power and
privileges of the banks? The answer is
that they dare not. They are powerless,
bound hand and foot and delivered up to
the money trust.
