THE THIRD PARTY.
Congressman Watson Talks OF
That Party's Future.
The Silver Vote Was Democ-
racy's Death Knell.
He Says the Northern and Eastern
Democrats Have No Real
Sympathy with the South.
Money Rules Them

Money Rules Them.
WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE result
of the vote on the silver bill is regarded
by the leaders of the third party as a
victory for them.
The Associated Press give out the fol-
lowing interview with Congressman
Watson of Georgia, who is jubilant
over the prospects of the party in the
south.
Mr.. Watson says
"The action in the house on the silver
bill is the death knell of the old Demo
cratic organization. Hundreds of thou
sands of voters in the southern states
have felt that if financial relief could be
had the Democracy, as now organized,
would give that relief if it had the
chance. With a majority of 14S in the
house of representatives it certainly had
a chance to pass the free silver bill. 1t
failed to do it. 1t was only by the help
of the nine Peoples party members and
eleven Republicans that this immense
Democratic majority escaped Water
loo.
Consequently, the most conservative
Democrats of the south know now that
Democratic majorities welded under
the present organization mean absolute
ly nothing so far as practical legislation
is concerned. Now. no power on earth
can keep Georgia from going into the
electoral college with peoples party
delegation. l confidently believe the
same is true Of several other southern
states. What the Democrats may do
with the silver bill hereafter, is com
paratively unimportant. They have
had their opportunity. They had their
majority with nineteen outside votes to
help them. They were absolutely una
Bile to pass such very mild measure Of
reform as BANDS silver bill, which only
purports to add 80 cents per capita to
the circulating medium. | have never
ceased to claim that the Alliance de-
mands, upon which the Peoples party
was 1OU1OON, NSAO u oO ctAOA
principles"
"I claim that today, but believe that
the immense majority Of Democrats all
over the south will come to our party as
the truest exponents OF the Jeffersonian
principle, the rule Of the people as
against the Hamilton doctrine of the
rule of money and Of elias ses. Let it
never be forgotten that Boutelle of
Maine, Republican, asked the Tam
many Democrats to stop tilibustering on
the bill, and challenged the Democratic
house to come at once to direct vote
on the bill itself The challenge was
refused by Democrats. In other words,
the magnificent Democratic majority of
4S found itself absolutely powerless (
legislate upon mild measure of reform,
to which their party is committed, and
upon which they have sought and OBJ
tained votes. We who swung loose from
the Democratic party claimed that the
northern and eastern Democrats had no
real sympathy with our people, but were
as much IN Ter the domination of the
money power as the Republicans of the
north and east. After the vote of last
Thursday night, no man will ever be
able to successfully deny that PROPOSE
ton.

THE SITUATION IN NEW YORK.
Republican Success in the Air.

Mr.. Charles w. Hackett of Utica,
N. Y, who was for two or three
years chairman Of the Republican
State Executive Committee, in talk
ing about the outlook in New York
State said ''The strong enthusiasm
among Republicans in this State,
growing out Of their earnest work
and grand success at the spring elec,
tions, is certain harbinger of our
success this fall. We have the votes
to carry the State in any presidents
ial election if we can hold them to-
gether. There wasn't the slightest
friction in any of the cities or coun.
ties where l am acquainted between
individual Republicans or Republi>
can factions while the contests were
going on this year. The objective
point in every Republicans mind
was that of the Hill methods, and the
result was Waterloo. 1t is rather
difficult to say at this time anything
about the sentiment Of Republicans
On the Presidential question. 1t is
probable that We we will just drift
along until convention time and send
an uninstructed delegation to MINI
eapolis to select the best man."
