Burkitt and the Force Bill

A perfectly responsible gentle
man of Alderman writes that he heard
the joint discussion on tEc 10Th be.
tween Mr.. Money and Mr.. Burkitt at
Crows Mil and these arc his words 4:
"Burkitt made no argument at all, but
appealed TO the prrjuliccs of the mis-.
guided and mislcd, II: but he
declared for the force bill, which will
very much weaken him in this coun.
ty." II will not do for Mr.. Burkitt's
friends any longer to deny his declara,
tives in favor of the force bill. Every.
body can see the object of such decla.
lations that they are made to gain
Republican support. lie has no hope
of being elected, but ifthc Republi-
ems get tho House he wonld hope for
their support in Il contest and, at NIL
events. TO control Federal patronage
under Harrison, If by any chance liar,
rison should be elected.

FOR CONGRESS-:
II. n. NJ U y + \.
a Great Day for Democracy.

Last Saturday was Democratic day IL
Wiuona and the IL thrilled Democrats Of
Montgomery county who happened to be
in tow that day enjoyed II treat that was
rich. rare and racy. Hon. l.. NJ. South.
worth. OF Carroilton, was present by invita-
ton oil the J.. Z. George clab.
Mr.. Southworth's speech was full Of true
Democratic gospel, eloquHnce, facts aud
figures, Those who have heard this bril-
liant yonng man speak, know that he is al
most inyincihIe before the people, lie bad
the law and the gospel on hi, side anu right,
Araycly and nobly did be hold aloit the gio-
rious banner OF true Democracy. lie
showed that when the Democratic party
was in power in the good old times before
the war that this was the most prosperous
country on the face Of Gods green earth.
lie told his audience that the Democratic
patty hsd not trea in power for a single
hour since the war and therefore could not
be held responsible for the ~"damnable"
legislation nov in existence. He dcicd
dis opponent to point to a single act OF VI
cious legislation enacted while the Demo-
cratic party had control of either branch OF
Congress. He went TO the official record of
the government and be showed just how
the people were robbed by the tariff.
Bringing IL home to each individual, the
speaker demonstrated by official figures that
every man IN this country who buys 500
worth of goods, actually gives. free. gratis
zn6 FOR aot!ing, over 400 to the protected
millionaire manufacturers, He dcmonstra-
ted that It would bankrupt the government
to buy the railroads.. to say nothin. of the
expenses of operating them. Mr. south.
worth might also hay3 mentioned the fact
that the third party fsvors buying all teie-
graph and telephone lines. The platform
doesn't say anything about street cars and
cray wagons, but we suppose this was Il
mere oversight.
Mr.. Southworth's cfart was a brilliant
one and if anybody had any doubt about
the honesty aud integrity Of the Democrat
ic party he MUST have convinced them that
it was the only party in existence that OF.
lered relief to tue oppressed farmers OF the
South. His speech was received with great
enthusiasm.
Mr.. S%andidge made a short reioinder, but
it vas evident that Southworth and De. !
