AND THIRD PARTYITES.

Col RawIs Asks Mr.. Kemp to Tell the
Meeting What They Proposed to
AccompIish-The Populist Start Out
With a TRADE Against the Democ-
racy-Col. Lester Makes q Two
Hours Speech in Defense OF the
Party.
DARIEN, GA, Sept. 21.-There were over
900 people out to hear the joint debate be-
tween Col Lester, our great congressman,
and Mr.. Kemp, the third party candidate.
Ex-CongreSsmAn Rawls opened the debate
with thirty minute address. having been
introduced by Mr.. Livingston. He said it
was a great pleasure to him to visit our city
and blow as hard as he could for democracy,
and that he made 1t a study TO see that what
his father taught him was correct and that
he was educated in the hands Of democracy.
He wanted Mr.. Kemp to tell him what
he proposed to accomplish by breaking
of from the party Of which he was part
and parcel. He gave Tom Watson a COM
plete pull down, showing him to be thor
Ough demagogue. He riddled the third
party, and was cheered throughout his
whole speech. He wanted 70 know how
many Of bis friends here had gone of
!
shat they would see their error and return
TO the lap Of democracy.
KEMP's ABUSE OF DEMOCRACY.
Kemp the third party candidate, then spoke
for an hour, In which he abused the Demo-
cratic party for not giving the people more
money. He was quietly listened 20, but his
speech fell fiat, as he was speaking to demo-
crats about democrats. He said that he
had never made a speech until he entered
this campaign as Peoples party candidate,
and that they proposed to do what the dem
ocrats have proposed TO do for thirty years.
He says that Northen would be defeated.
He concluded his TRADE without applause.
Mr.. Smith, the alliance lecturer, then for
an hour entertained the people in a speech
filed with anecdotes and abuse OF the DEM
ocratio party, and that he believed that
everybody 10 the audience was as honest as
he was, and that he did not propose to hurt
the feelings Of any one.
LESTER THE HERO OF THE DAT.
Col. Lester was the hero Of the day, and
when he entered tho hall cheers reigned for
several minutes. He concluded the debate
In two hours speech and showed them the
shallowness Of the third party claim, and
showed in feeling words his regrets for his
friends who had gone astray, and predicted
that IN a short time they will swallow the
Republican party as the physio they need.
he also viewed the tariff and showed that
the reduction Of the tariff was what alone
would relieve the country's depression. He
showed up the force bill in Its true light. 1t
was the grandest political meeting for
years, and only one third OF our party Of
our county was present

FIELD AT JRSUP.

A Crowd Largely Composed OF Demo.
Gratis Listen to His VaRaries.
JEsUP, GA, Sept. 2L-Gen. J. @. Field
the candidate for Vice President on the
Peoples party ticket, spoke here to-day in
the court house to 154 people. He was in
troduced by p. D. B. Stansell, secretary Of
the Peoples party executive committee Of
this county. He began by saying that he
was here TO advocate no man, neither
20 ask votes, but was here
in the interest OF the people. He wanted
no one to vote his ticket unless he could
prove that he was representing the right
party, but hoped that all would cast their
votes In November according TO their con-
victions. He spoke OF the sub-treasury
and admitted that 1t was class legislation
and should thank God for Just such legisla-
ton.
THE RAILROAD PLANK.
In the railroad plank he was only in IA
trunk lines He said the tariff was
a small issue, but that it had
been discussed for the last 100 years, and IL
our people were not peaceable we would
rise up and demand a repeal Of the iniquit-
GUS Mckinley bill. The coat he
wore cost $50, but what cared
the great mass OF the people what
o4A "a siSAo SOob Al buo1 uhu tuo money
TO pay for it, He had just as soon give $50
as $40 for the coat If he had the money.
The financial question was the one that the
people were trying 70 solve and the demand
the Peoples party made. He abused the
Cleveland democracy and closed by appeal
ing 60 the people to lay aside the troubles of
the war and let it be forgotten, and let the
north and south come together as brothers,
DEMOCRATS IN THE MAJORITY
At the close of his speech Mr.. StanseIl re-
Quested all third pArtyites 10 remain
and the others to retire. as they had some
Important business to attend to. Forty-one
remained and lib retired, showing that the
democrats were largely in the majority,

noon the democrats would have a speech
from Nick +. McCook, democratic eiector
from the Eleventh congressional districs,
ten. Field, at this announcement, said this
was his day here, and, no matter IL they
had closed their meeting, he would consider
IL personal dlscourtesy to him IL the dem-
ocrats had any speaking. A goodly num-

The Demonstration Tame to What
Was Anticipated.
CEDARTowN. GA, Sept. 2L-Tom Wat
son has come and gone and the democrats
have no reason 10 regret his coming. He
spoke nearly three hours and had the entire
day to himself. The crowd was very or
derby indeed, and his effort was more con-
sentative than was expected He failed TO
stir up anything like the enthusiasm that
every one confidently looked for and the
demonstration was tame as to what the pub
lie anticipated. The crowd did not number
more than !. 200 people, all told, and the es-
Inmates OF good judges do not place
1t at over 1000. Maj. Blance says
there were 1,500, while many
democrats say there were not over 800
voters. Whatever the number may have
been, fully one-fourth were democrats, and
not more than fifty negroes were present.
Inc DAY passed without special incident
ARRAIGNING THE DEMOCRATS.
Mr.. Watson spoke from a wagon in the
grove near the Cherokee furnace, and the
crowd stood up during the entire speech.
Mr. Watson's speech was au arraignment
OF the Democratic party for every i'll that
IL complained OF, with but a mild charge of
responsibility against the republicans. He
TAXED ABOUT money, and the burden Of his
enoIe was on tine financial question He did
not refer to tho tariff or the force bill. but
talked about the per cent. land loan scheme
ana the government ownership OF railroads.
he was listened to with marked attention.
and at no time during the present campaign
mas any speaker been interrupted or dis
turbed so little as was the case with Mr..
watson. He was given fair play and was
accorded every courtesy that could be ex-
pected from promiscuous political gather
Ing. Considering the fact that this was his
only appointment for the Seventh congress

iormance OF the campeig ,, the demonstra-
non must have been sore disappointment

GAINESVILLE, FLA, Sept. 81. - Last

people, thinking the peninsula veritable
