THEY Acknowledged IT.


the fact that the republicans and
democrats work together in New
York to arrange the candidates of
both parties. The Constitution said /:
"The claim is made that the Cleve-
land democrats are uniting with the
republicans in New York state. The
Cleveland papers, in fact, boast of
it."
Now think of the cheek of the
democrats in accusing the Peoples
Party Of working with the republi-
cans, when they themselves are do
ing it.
The most encouraging reports
come to us from all portions of the
Union regarding the Peoples Party
movement. Instead of dying, as the
old party papers report, it is grow
ing more rapidly than ever we had
dared to hope, and few weeks more
will demonstrate the fact that the in
dustrial people are everywhere intent
to abide by the action of the St.
Louis conference, and are going al
most solidly into the Peoples Party.
One whole congressional district in
Mississippi moved over last week
bodily and without dissenting
voice. Tennessee is preparing to
move. In Alabama they are estab-
fishing state paper at Birmingham,
and President Adams of the Far
mers' Alliance has declared that he
is for the Peoples Party straightout.
And it is just SO everywhere. The
leaders, so-called, have about aban-
doned all effort to hold the people
back and are now trying to catch up
with the procession, which is miles in
advance of them. We veture the
assertion with perfect confidence that
the first day of August will see the
entire south and west united, con-
soidated and immovable and the two
old parties disorganized and on the
run. Victory will be with the peo-
pie in October and November, and
relief from their financial difficulties
will speedily follow.
The democrats passed the free
wool bill to help the republicans. It
will hurt the wool-grower and the
republican orators will say to them,
"Look there! The democrats cut
dssvn the price of your wool by
taking you compete with the Au-
stralian wool7grower" But they did
not take the 40 per cent. tariff off of
manufactured goods. You get less
for your wool but pay the same price
for your clothing that you did be-
fore. Evidently the democrats don't
want the republicans to be without a
club with which to club their depart
ing voters back into the republican
ranks.
Friends should remember that
this is a poverty campaign; that we
are all poor; that while a few men
of moderate means are giving with
great iberality, they cannot bear the
expenses of all the speakers that go
out. When you have a rally, make
up a purse and pay the speakers
expenses. This is not politicians
war, but the peoples fight for equal
Justice to all, which means comfort
able homes, freedom from debt and
money in pocket to those who labor
when the fight is won.
Remembering this, chip in a dime
or dollar now, that the victory
may come the sooner.
Colonel POSTS meeting at Chatta-
hoochee Park on the eth was a sue
cess, as are al'People's Party meet
ings in the state generally. Coloael
Post spoke over two hours in the
forenoon, and by urgent request
spoke for an hour again after dinner.
The day was beautiful, and in spite
of the fact that two other pic-nics
were few miles distant, fully three
hundred people were present and re-
NAMED until the meeting broke up.
