REIDsvILLE, Ca, Nov. 23.-The dele
gates OF the third party met at Reidsvilie
Monday aud put full ticket in the field.
The ticket is as follows: Ordinary, J. T.
Grice; sheriff, J. H. Eason; clerk, G. R.
Harden; treasurer. c. S. T. Strickland; tax
receiver, Josh Collins; collector, Jack
Deloach; surveyor, John Hodges; coroner,
Dr. Gray. There is not the slightest chance
for these third party howiers to be elected,
yet they are ciamoring for office.
Tattnal county has too much intelli-
gence to run the risk OF a third party adj
ministration. She will utterly annihilate
the so-called Peoples party at the January
election. There will not be one of these
bowling demagogues left to tell the "tale."
TattnRll county is not yet ready to make
an assignment or place her property in
the hands of a receiver, which would be the
result if this third party yell is not wiped
out.

The Talk Of Revolution in Alabama
Declared FarcicaL
MONTGOMERY, Ala, Nov. 2S.--The talk
of revolution in Alabama over the gover-
norship is foolish. There is no sentiment in
favor of Kolbs claims and the effort to pre-
vent the count of the vote before the legis-
lature Is farcical. Gov. Jones and the other
state officers elected in Angus last will take
the oath OF Office 10 the presence of the two

scitudonal conventian is not meeting with
much favor, as a decided majority Of botn

sible for all the democrats in the ward to
vote in that time and as the night Is rather
an unusual time for holding elections, thi:

were passed, the leader in having such ao-
tion taken being Vice President Austin,
who was one of the most active third party
workers 20 the state during the recent

TO do likewise, and all the
alliance newspapers are requested
by the meeting to in future eschew politics
and devote their columns TO the interests of

originally intended. Just such result Of
the overwhelming democratic victory has

that the alliances of the state and south

months the third party will be forgotten in
