The Democrat. (Scotland Neck, Halifax Co., N.C.) 1884-1896, 1891-09-03
n You have acted

and failed to get relief. how do you
EXPECT 20 get relief by leaving That
party, unless YOU expect 20 form an
alliance 10th offensive and defensive
with the republican party? How
can a fragment Of the party be stron-
ger than the whole party? III all
combined could not demand snd get
relief, how can one half fighting an Il
denouncing the other half get rell Ell
from a common enemy? These are
reasonable questions will some one
answer them? If we can see how
part is greater than the whole; bow
three millions Of men and women can
ont vote and control eight millions of
n en-, then we are with Jon and all
the people will be with you.
One other question. How can al
liance-men expect democrats among,
lawyers, doctors, merchants, business
men, moned men, if you please
steamboat men, railroad n 2,
bankers, aud all the fifty odd millions
Of people in this country who are not
farmers, to cooperate with and aid
them in their undertakings, while
thew are denouncing them and re-
Easing to admit them into the ORDER?
Kinsmep, brethren in the flesh,
and in your burdens and oppessions.
have you not attempted more
than you car perform9 Can your
stomachs, however capacious, digest
! it?
While you have scared most of
the newspapers and office-seekers
right badly do you really believe you
can buli-doze and drive the second
sober thought of the American pee'
pie into madness; aud finally into
political suicide? Let me answer
this question. You can not do 1T.
Don't allow yourselves to believe it
Don't allow yourselves to be deceived
any longer. DON'T long for, nor
strive after imp disabilities.
Polk and McCune & Co., know
you will not get the sub-treasury
scheme through Congress in thou~
sand years. and you ought to know
it. They know it is an impossibilts
to ever get such a radical, impracti
cal measure through a conservative
Legislative body On the American
continent. and you ought to know
it. 1t Is a scheme to divide the sol
id South. 1t Is scheme invented
by Kansas jsy-hawkers to place thu
Southern States under negro-repub
llcan scalawag rule and to retair
the republican party in power, th'
party that has inflicted all the wrong'
upon the country. the party that i
responsible for present deplo7abl'
conditions Of the toiling millions
the party that is responsible 70
every bad law upon the statute book;
Of the Nation.
