OF good government. No" y d :
ocrat', can you prove that ihere Is
no polltlcs in sny zatio even
1oxn mans family ! ! for one
think yoa can, for yoa talk ~ d
like lawyer. You knew they have
a wonderful power for miseonstfuc-
lion. Now. for ooe, believe sou
are capable 0f convincing any fody

you could convince the people that :
table is . horse just because it hap
pens TO have four legs.
No be never knew Of any one who
wanted to dissolve the Allance
Probably lie has forgotten 10 bis
former questions, Of his comparisons
between the Alliance aud Union
League of their similarity as pol;ti.
cal organic atoms, and could not the
Alliance be dealt with by law es
was done with the Union League.
AS for the SHINING business we
will leave it awhile 10 be executed
on statesmen out of a job who CON-
pare the Alliance 10 the Union
League and who want to dis-organ-
ize the Alliance. Listen: THESE
two moguls, King Pope and Peoples
tlemsnly courtesy, and since he has
dubbed me as mogul, | think il but
fair that | show him like courtesy.
No doubt picture after picture IN
rolls itself before his minds eye. He
sees himself as President addressing
the Senate and compelling it to Lis
will. He sees himself as general 81
a great host defeating tue forces OF
the farmers and labo.ers with uare-
lenting ire and himself ruling IN
questioned over Submissive peo-
pie, And last of all he sees some
thing glittering at his feet-it is 8
crown! Hail to the William the
conqrerer We acknowledge Jour
kingly power.
Next his majesty takes Pres, Polk
to task, not because of his otj-ctlon
to the man but because of the posi-
ton be holds and hoping by striking
at him to weaken the order. The
writer of this believes it ough: to be
beneath the dignity of honest men
and such dirty staff should be
left to be dealt out BY those soft
muscled, political hacks Tho have
lost their places at the public crib
As for town people thereare sever;

other communication | made refer
ence to the ruling elements who
think it no sin to charge consumer
from so 10 100 per cent profit tie
on articles Of consumption also to
banks, etc. Yes | am untruthtul toe
the conventions were never pack ed
with lawyers or town cliques-
still aver they were and "Dcmocrat'
knows it. They never changed the
time and place of the congressiona al
convention for this district in last
election did they, for the purpose OF
defeating the farmer candidate? C1
course you will swear by the beard
of Matomet they did not do il, but
our farmer friends don't say &C. Lei
me ask you another question: y ere
there not some good Haskell like
Democrats in aforesaid towns whe
did not vote for this farmer candi-
date through prejudice, simply be
cause be was a farmer? Now,
know it is natural for you to deny
it, for you seen to be bull
that way, but my farmer friend:
say that is true, too. Then his roy
al highness proceeds to sag Peoples
Party and his clans led by Lieuten
ant Polk NAV d, feat The democratic
party but cannot succeed thelnselve
without the democracy of this coun
! try. Let me ask who constitutes TIE
| Democratic party of this STATE.
Don't the farmers constitute a littl,
part Of it, and DO you soft-bandef
gentry expect to win the csmpaic I
without our help? Again, ''If they
/ continue to dcnounce both Old pa
ties, what help can they Expect frou
elther?" Tnis is new TO ne that VI,
should expect help from the Repuh
!ican party. SO | infer from VIVA
be says the difference is small be
tween the old parties. / exoect the,
will help one another in tue mex
election. Now. "Demccraj" [ hav,
found that rock to stand %, ant
it's the Democracy OF the old No7ti
State "God and my country" an,
t e Ocala platform, which is clos
akin to the PEOPLES PARTY.
