People's party paper. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1891-1898, 1892-07-15


iron is hot; use your sledge for all
its worth, and that amount can't
be calculated. ] voted for Northen
for governor once, and if any good
Peoples Party man wants to kick
me for it, he is welcome; for Cleve-
land, ditto. There are a few in old
Screven county who would remain
in the Democratic patty if they
thought their homes would not be
confscated under the old Democratic
rule. Readers, have you ever
thought over the matter? IF not,
give it a moments consideration.
lou know we need some old land
marks to keep US from falling into
the old dirty, Democratic rut, and a
few old stakes scattered on the line
can't hurt us, so if other counties
are like our boys say, we have laid
our crop by and are only resting for
grand and noble harvest. It will
open, believe, by saying Rev. N. G.
Edenfeld is elected on the Peoples
Party ticket by the biggest majority
ever polled in old Screven. see
the Savannah News has taken bit
ter stand against us. Now, ought
we not to stop our subscription to it
[ think none of our enemies sub
scribe for our paper.
J. r Matthews, writes from Villa
RIGA, Ca:
I wish to speak a few words in re-
ply to special from this place to the
Atlanta Constitution in regard to the
Democratic primary in this county,
on Saturday, the I'd inst. We don't
accuse the Villa RIGA correspondent
Of the Constitution Of being wilfully
ignorant, but we know he is honestly
SO, in stating that Carroll county is
solid for Democracy, for his class are
reading the papers unfriendly to our
cause and are relying on them for
their information, Such a surprise
awaits this class this fall as will near
ly take their breath away. When
they talk to us Of negro supremacy
and force bills, and expostulate with
us on the error of our ways, etc,
some how [ am always reminded Of
Satan reproving sin. My reasons for
asserting that Carroll county is not
solid for Democracy is that Villa
RIGA district, usually polls $50 votes,
but on last Saturday the Demo
Gratis published the election in all
conspicuous places Of the district,
and also they invited ex-Representa-
tive G. W. Harper to speak, and he
was on hand, and when they counted
out they had II votes out of $50, and
Temple district, out of 225 votes
polled 27, and out of a csgnty poll
Of 1900 the solid DemocgsG polled
81 for w. J. Northen. Wet the
people draw their own conclusions.
Now mark the prediction, Carroll
county is sure to give the Peoples
Party majority in November.
The nomination of Weaver and
Field has given entire satisfaction to
the people in this section. Now af-
ter twenty-five years of unsuccessful
experimenting with futures the peo-
pie have called a halt and and adopt
ed different mode of procedure, and
in order to do this we find it neces-
sary to establish, or create, new
party, and we have done it, and
whether or not this party shall rule
remains to be seen. The result lies
unveiled in the dark recesses of the
future, but I know our cause is just.
Rev. J. N. Story writes us that a
Peoples Party Club was organized
at Mobley school house, Harris
county, on July 2. These little
country clubs will prove great edu-
Gators in all economic questions and
prevent the people from being de-
ceived by the tricks of the willy
politicians.
