MIR. WATSON'S SPEECH.

To-day we present in full Mr..
Watson's speech delivered in Sparta,
August Is.
No subscriber to the PEoPLE's
PARTY PAPER should fail to read this
speech from the first word to the
closing sentence. 1t unequivocally
answers the slanderous falsehoods
circulated by desperate and unscru-
pulous enemies in reference to the po-
sition of Mr.. Watson and Col. Peek
on the So called "Peek Slavery Bill
1t also lays bare the silly falsehood
about Mr.. Watson's hostility to An
thony Wilson in particular, and the
colored people in general, 1t puts a
qmetus upon the silly charge that
Mr.. Watson is an enemy to educa-
ton, and finally shows up Northen,
Black, ct al. in the attitude Of Ibrag-
CARTS who wes3 fall of fight until Mr..
Watson appeared upon the scene,
and then began to ask themselves
the question, " Where was / at?'
The speech carries with it a mes
sage of hope to the oppressed, COS.
pei of peace and prosperity to all.
The mendacious attacks made by
the professional liars oof the Atlanta,
Augusta, and other papers, on Mr..
Watson's social equality views, and
their gross perversion of facts about
the meeting, together with the con-
temptible course of men from whom
better things might be expected, in
striking a man they feared to meet
in debate through a woman, are too
puerile to merit attention.
In justice to Mr.. Bennett, of the
Journal, we will say that he made a
feeble attempt at the amende honor
orable after the SANDER was sown
broadcast.

THE DEFEAT OF EVERETT.
August 80, 1892.

A crueller thing was never done
by the Democratic party. He had
staid at his post of duty like man
till the gavel fell. He knew the ma
chine politicians were putting their
knives in his back at home, still he
did not. bulge from his place. Lily
ingston ran home every time a bush
shook. Moses couldn't stay to save
his life. At the slightest racket in
his district he would put out for
home and go to whining through his
nose in behalf of his own bacon.
Everett stayed where he was paid
to stay. He did not pocket the
money of the people in plain viola
ton of law, as Moses and Livingston
cid. Honest lGan that he is, he
earned every cent he took.
How was he rewarded? The
Democrats kicked him out and only
salved the wound by resolution of
Enforcement, (which was unani-
mously carried"
If he deserved a unanimous en-
dorsement, why did he not deserve
the second term which is always ac-
corded when the Congressman has
done his duty? Why insult the victim
of machine malice by deceitful resolu-
tons of "unanimous endorsement? ?"
What was the mans crime?
Simply that he was an Alliance
man and did not take the Chicago
humbug platform as his only doc
trine.
Poor little Moses! Poor old Liv-
ingston! In two years you will re-
alize that the same knives are being
sharpened for you, and that you
have got to abandon the principles
to which you owe your elevation
from obscurity or you will be cut
down just as Everett was.

THE CHOLERA.

The arrival of vessel at New
York on board which twenty-five
passengers had died of cholera, has
caused alarm all over the country,
and it has been determined to pro-
claim a twenty days quarantine of
all vessels bringing immigrants from
European ports. The President of
the United States yesterday con-
suited his cabinet on the formulation
OF national policy of quarantine
protection, and it is fair to presume
that vigorous effort will be made
to prevent the landing of the disease.
More rapid transportation now makes
it more difficult to guard against than
when previous epidemics prevailed,
and it is impossible to predict the
result. Sanitary precautions should
be taken in every city and town.

No Fusion.
Virginia Sun.

Virginia Sum-
Because the Republican party is
refusing to make nominations in the
most of the Congressional districts,
our Democratic acrobats are charg-
ing fusion between the Republican
party and the Peoples Party. eve
call the Democratic managers aero
bats because they are such adopts at
appearing on both sides of the fence
at the same time.) Now, we know
for certainty that the Democrats
are moving heaven and earth to in
duce the Republicans to make nomi-
nations, because they rightly Judge
that that is their only chance for
holding their voting strength. They
know that with no Republican in
the field all the Establishments in the
world will fail Of keeping the peo-
pie from voting their preference in
the Peoples Party; and defeat stares
them in the face. We charge these
sagacious managers with desiring to
effect fusion with the Republican
party in their own interest. The
Republicans refuse-hence these
tears.
But there is no fusion between the
Republican party and the Peoples
party. The situation Is simply this:
Under the Anderson Mccormick
law the Republicans are powerless.
Whatever majorities they may poll,
they are uniformly converted into
minorities under the mysterious no.
cus-pocus Of partisan election judges.
The Republicans are naturally sick
of such one-sided game, and being
helpless to remedy it, they naturally
turn their gaze on the PEOPLES party,
which as party Of reform, promises
a pure election law on the plan Of
the Australian system. They say,
"Give this new party show. Per-
haps they can do what we cannot.
Help them elect their Congressman
this year, and next year they will
carry the State, and then the odious
Anderson Mccormick law will no
longer disgrace our statute books.
After that we will take our chances
in a fair fight"
All that is perfectly sensible and
straightforward from Republican
point of view, but it will be noticed
that the Peoples party has nothing
to do with it. We are already
pledged to pure election law, and
II the Republicans help us to gain it,
all the better; but that in no sense
constitutes fusion between the two
parties. The motto of the Peoples
party is 'SKeep IN the middle of the
road" That is where it is now, and
1t means to stay there.

The Democratic Party and the Negroes
in Georgia.

One would Judge from the reports
published in the daily papers OF the
State that the Republican negroes
of Georgia have fallen most violent
ly in love with the Democratic
party.
To one who is acquainted with
the average Georgia negro and the
usual Democratic methods In the
South, this is the veriest rot.
1t is true that there are few ne
groes in Georgia who can be persuad-
ed or hired to do or say most any
thing, but it is a notorious fact the
intelligent negroes Of Georgia can
never be persuaded, hired, or bull
dozed to vote the Democratic
ticket.
This is according to the eternal
fitness of things. No one knows
better than the negro himself that,
were it possible, there has not been
a time since he was made a citizen
of the United States that theI Demo-
cratic party would not have totally
disfranchised him if it could.
1t is the merest bosh to think that
any great number Of the negroes of
Georgia can be made believe that
the Democratic party is any. friend
of theirs.
Then why all this parade of lies
in the daily papers about the negroes
voting for the Democratic party?
Look out; the Democrats of Geor-
gia are fixing to do exactly what
they did in Alabama. In the black
counties of Alabama the negro vote
was counted for Jones whether it
was polled or not. No doubt the
same thing will be attempted in
Georgia, hence all their twaddle
about negroes going to vote the
the Democratic ticket in the coming
election. 1t is simply an effort to
have the country think it is all right
when the dirty work is perpetrated.

THE SPARTA MEETING.

AS soon as Mr.. Watson reached
home he made an appointment for
Sparta, and it was published in this
paper.
The Democrats had already had
spasmodic "rallies" at that point
the main deficiency being that the
boys did not orally"
Knowing that on Mr.. Watson's
day the crowd would come, the
Democrats laid their plans to break
up his meeting and take his crowd.
They advertised a barbecue. They
invited cart load of Democratic
speakers of the "spell-binder" va
riety-including little Joe Jeems,
who voted for the so-called Peek
slavery bill.
The day having arrived, they
hired the two groves in order that
Mr.. Watson's friends might be
forced on the open square in the
broiling sun.
Declining Mr.. Watson's challege
for joint debate, they began their
attempts to to take his crowd. Brass
bands were made to play merrily-to
drown his voice. Hot-headed young
men were put forward to yell for
Black continuously, and thus to pro-
woke a row. Men on horses were
sent to gallop up to the crowd and
invite the people down to Stree

SQUIBs.

And so the Constitution alludes to
the McDufie Democracy as the "Ku-
klux Democracy"
How sad it is to see a great big
newspaper loose its head in that sort
of way. Anthony Wilson's speeches
are little tough on his newly found
friends in the Democratic party, we
admit, but SO. great paper as the
Constitution ought not to do the sack
cloth act in public. 1t will hurt ''the
Democratic party" 1t will indeed
Was it Boykin Wright's father who
rode so many weary miles across the
country to see Anthony Wilson and
urge him pathetically to come to the
Tenth District and make some
speeches againat Watson? We ask
for information. We really would
like to know. We would indeed.
One week ago Anthony Wilson was
the darling of the Democratic heart.
He had beenl badly treated ten yeaas
ago, and the Democrats (being some
what slow in getting their facts)
were weeping copious tears of the
vote-getting sort over the said An
thony. Now that Anthonyis stump
ing the Tenth for Watson, and de-
MES that he was SO meanly treated,
the Democrats discover that he is a
bad man from Bitter creek that he
is as " black as the ace of spades,
and has a general tendency to I'M
adulterated cussedness. We feel
sorry for the Democrats. We do in
deed.
Mr.. Cobb, of Alabama, without
meaning to do so, voiced the Demo
cratic situation. 1t was this, " Where
was at ?"
We are anxious for Northen to say
what platform he is on. Let him
say in plain words where he is +" at"

tell us what his platform is, and
where he is at" How much of the
