A correspondent Of the Macon Telenrnnh
writing from Forsyth about the third partv
excitement in Monroe county SAYS; Al
| most nightly negro school houses and Some
| times barns are the scenes that
would make any true southern man
regard them with shame aud contempt
A few ignorant cornfleld negroes as
semoled In rustic school house
dimply lighted by pine Knot, an alliance
lawyer, who represents several northern
loan associations, and an alliance preacher
who has forsakcn Christ and is deyotinv his
time to advocating the omnipotence of Tom
Watson and third partyism, was the scene
that was enacted a few miles from here on
Saturday night. The negroes were sworn
to secrecy, so that no white men save the
speakers would know anything about these
meetings, and 1t was purely accidental that
the leaders were detected in their
diabolicsl actions. A trusted farm
hand working on the plantation OF a prom>
inent farmer told him of the wonderful
things he had heard the night before at the
school house How negroes became frantic
with joy as they were assured that il they
would vote with the third party that Tom
Watson was going to usher In an era Of
prosperity that they had never known be-
fore. They would be paid 81 so and 81 IS
per day, thus enabling them to live more
comfortably, and that they would then ioin
hands with the whites and be as one, Such
scenes were never before witnessed. as the
negroes, in genuine barbaric style, clapped
their hands and danced to the music of
sacred songs aud offered prayers to the
speakers who had 80 numerically deluded
them in their Ignorance. The extreme
measures adopted by the leading element OF
the Peoples party ls doing it inoaloulab BILE
harm. Sober meu realize the inevita Die
result Of such proceedings and are thor
oughly disguised with the new party and
are now more thoroughly democratic than
ever. Every district in the county has or
ganized a dem ocratic club and are doing
magnificent work for the party. Unless a
great change, unforeseen, is brought about
every county Office will be presided over by
democrat"
