Would the free coinage of silver
nj the ratio of Is Ia benefit the
country: If not why did the leaders
of the southern Democracy tell us
one and two wears ago that 1t would:
Who thinks for the people IN the
| Democratic party: oflice-svkers
aud party manipulators.
Who thinks for the people in thu
Republican party: office-seekers
and party manipulators.
Who thinks for the people in the
Peoples party? The people them
selves.
If We were TO advertise for men
tho talk big and think themselves
of much Importance; but who are
themselves controlled by whims and
fancies or prejudiccs of some one
else, we would expect to Get fools
enough TO crowd every insane asy-
lum Of all christendom.

man who steals your dollar steals
but part of your earnings, but the
man who steals your vote steals the
expressions of your c"nscien .ious
convictions. the fruit of your God
given intellect and the result of
much patient study.
Why do some farmers who are
not members of the Alliance and of
the Peoples party abuse those who
are members: They all complain Of
the same evils and they all want
the same relief. Maybe Jay Gould
was right when he said: ''One-half
of the damn fool farmers could be
got to shoot down the other half"

Was the Alliance necessary? Zeb
Vance and other distinguished states
men used to tell us it WAS. Were
they trying to fool or please us.
They will please answer which they
were doing?
God pity the moral coward.
Who is it that would even dis
grace a menagerie? Well, we tell
you who he is. He is the man who
is incapable of having an opinion of
his own; but if he should chance to
have one of his own, and should
learn that it does not coincide with
his bosses, flops over and than tries
TO make himself conspicuous and
lead thepeople to think that he is
an original thinker.
Are you a member of the Peoples
party No, | believe in their plat
form, but [ was once elected town
ship constable on the Democratic
ticket and / think the party has
done SO much for me that | ought
to stick to it.
Why is it that the majority of the
old line politicians remain in the
old parties? They know where the
Doodle is.
L see that our representatives say
they will appoint no one as mag
lstrate who is not Democrat. Well. |
we know, but then they will APP
point some of those colored people |
who worked SO hard to elect them
will they not? But it may be that
our Senator thinks that the money
he gave them to hollow for him
while he was on the campaign is "a
sufficient reward for that element
Of the Democratic party.
A recent issue of the Democrat
says that the legislature is sDemo-
cratic from way back" Surely the
party should feel very proud of the
present legislature, for it is thought
quite probable that they will pass a
possum law. They say they can't
lone no big things yit." Course
they amt, but then they will. Jes
train up your 'possum dogs, plant
your tater patches and see how it
will benefit the State.
We know dey can't do much with
SIX per cent. interest bills, railroads
md raccoons; but den dey can make
possums fat and plentiful. Why
nave even heard 'em say dat one Of
lie Legislators is gwine ter introduce
bill ter hab de possums climb up
crooked trees and their tails ter
grow IN split sticks so you wont hab
'er take an AK wild you when YOU
20 huntin, or least ways dew is
ywlne ter hab a loop grow in de
'ossums tail for you ter carry him
lone by.
