Mr. C. w. Shively has long letter
in yesterdays Oregonian on the rail-
road question. n the course of 1t, he
says:
Does II not therefore seem reasona-
BILE that the time has arrived when the
Union Pacific must occupy new terri
tory, which justly and in a commercial
sense belongs to it? have reference
to the watershead of the Columbia and
tributaries, but more especially that
section of country between the city of
Portland and Astoria, via the Neha-
lem. The system of the Union Pacific
which occupies a large section of the
Upper Columbia basin by many miles
of trackage, with branches radiating
from its main line, should hold the
traffic of the Inland Empire of the
Columbia basin, and while continual
tion of the road on a water level from
Portland down the Columbia to Astoria
should be built by the company still,
until the Union Pacific build from
Portland to Astoria, via the Nehalem,
Its system will not be able to control
the traffic of the watershed of the
Columbia The vast timber belt along
the route between Portland and Astoria
would create an immense traffic and
benefit Portland as much as Astoria"

NoRwooD, Ga, Jan. q.
As I have seen nothing in your
valuable paper concerning the recent
election for county Offices in this
county, will state that tn copies
party carried this county by from
$50 to $50 majority.
Some of the officers had been in
Office ever since the war, and it
seemed like they thought the places
belonged to them, but they have
learned that the so-called dead party
is very lively thing.
There were great many bogus
Peoples party tickets given out by
the Democrats. For instance, some
of the tickets had only one Demo
Gratis name on it, and that at the b..
tom of it.
Truly no people ever needed helr
any more than we farmers, and all
laborers. Neither do we believe any
people ever followed a nobler leader
than we. Here in Warren county a
number OF men have declared that
Tom Watson ought to be killed.
What for? Because he has lifted
the covering from Democratic rotten
ness in Congress and elsewhere over
the country.
It makes our blood boil to read the
accounts in the PEOPLES PARTY
PAPER about the low down methods
that were used to defeat our candi-
date in the November election.
We were glad to learn in your
paper that Lincoln county went solid
for reform in the county election,
and think all the counties should re-
port.
Your humble scribe has been a
subscriber to the Atlanta Constitu-
ton for seven or eight years, but as
it is such a bitter enemy to our cause
| have stopped it and do not expect
to take it any more.

law, by dividing the county up into
school districts, and pay the teachers
salary. Then we could have more
schools in the rural districts; but as
it is, some neighborhoods are so badly
divided that no schools can be had.
| have failed to make up a school
from just this cause. want to see
some one who has the interest of the
country at heart take hold of this
and see if something can't be done
for the education of the poor children.
The law is good enough to tax the
poor farmer; now let us see if some
legislator has not enough patriotism
to try to give them some of the ben
eft of their tax money.
Now, brothers, let us who are for
this government being run for the
people and by the people, keep this
subject (education) before the people
and the legislature, for without edu-
cation how can man have the
knowledge of the government, as he
has to depend too much on some one
else for information, thereby he cam
not make a good voter or citizen, for
he may be led wrong by some one he
has confidence in. 1t is claimed the
school law was made SO the poor
children could go to school, and we
have to pay tax for that purpose.
| don't mind paying my tax if | can
see that the children who need it will
get the benefit of 1t; but as it is, I
don't think those who are robbed of
their privilege should be forced to
pay the taxes. II we are to ever Sc
cure our liberties and justice, it will
be by educating the people. Don't
be contented that your children are
educated, but see that the laws are
so the poor can be educated as well
as the rich.
am glad to see that defeat does
not discourage the boys, but that they
are determined to push on and con-
tinue demanding their rights and
changing officers until we get our de-
mands enacted into laws. Let us
keep our eyes open and watch that
we do not fall by the same powers
that have about robbed us of our lib
critics; but let us watch and pray
that we may yet be free people, as
our revolutionary fathers intended
when they fought and bled for
freedom.
Now, brothers, if we expect the
Lord to be with us and aid us in this
fight, we must not follow after false
gods, but we should cast off our false
gods democratic and Republican
parties which are parties Of the deviD
and return unto the Lord and serve
him, and He says He will deliver us
from our enemies. cd Samuel) Let
us take truth and justice as our mot
to, and continue the fight, and we will
succeed in the end. w.

preached in pulpits will certainly re-
suit in the falling off of quarterage.
There is much weeping and gnash-
ing of teeth, so to speak, among Dem
ocrats, fearing that the soonest
fund.- will not be raised. Give your
selves no uneasiness about that mat
ter, brethren; it will not cost you a
cent. Just as certain as Solomon had
to stop the people from contributing
to the building of the Temple, just
SO sure will the "contest fund" be
raised. And among those that have
contributed most to the gospel will
be found those who will contribute
to the contest fund also.
A long felt. want has now been
supplied in the way of Peoples

edition yet, but will be a hustler

January, 1886, it was ten degrees
colder than now. Chunk up your
fire and keep your machine in order,
and give US your paper every week.
We must have it, and Democrats are

What is the relation we sustain to
the laboring class? With reference
to chat question [ feel impressed that
our noble order bears the same rela-
ton to the laborer that the good
Samaritan did to the man that went
down from Jerusalem to Jericho
and fell among thieves, who stripped
him Of his raiment and wounded him,
leaving him half dead, and then pass
ed by the Levite and priest, but they
left hun on the other side of the
road. No doubt they thought he
ought to have stayed at home and
worked a little harder. The good
Samaritan took him up, carried him
to an inn, dressed his wounds and
paid his expenses.
The Alliance is the good Samari-
tan. The farmers and laboring class
are among thieves who have stripped
them of their raiment and robbed
them of their money. The law
makers, congressman, legislators, law
yers, doctors, merchants and preach
ers, all have passed us by, with toss
of the hand and the remark, "You
ought to have stayed at home and
worked harder" But the Alliance
came along, had compassion on us,
took us up, carried US to her lodges
to educate US and teach us how to
defend ourselves from the enemy,
and to show US where and who our
enemies are. My, my! Has she
not thrown the light on the record of
our lawmakers and pointed us to the
bright star OF hope, if we are true to
her teachings? She hath shown us
that it is victory or slavery. Which
shall it be? my brother and sister of
the Alliance. On, let US put on the
whole ar1nor of Alliance principles
and stand firm. Stand up against
the enemy of liberty, the enemy of
free country and free ballot. Lib

ers fought seven years, for which

termined to stick to the principles
until we are satisfied about the gov
eminent, and if we will stick until
1896 we will gain the victory.
Now, | want every man that is of
the right grit to stand to his order
and principles, and. go hand and
heart, and let us be solid. I know
that if the people of Georgia could
just lay down prejudice and not be
controlled by men who don't care for
them nor their families, we would be
the strongest party on the globe.
Brothers, all read, study, think and
work, for our time will come if we
will do our part. The old parties
have gained the election this time by
fraud, and we need not expect any
thing from them that will help the
poor people. If we don't stand up
for our rights we will never get them.
The old parties fight us on all sides
they don't want us to have a paper
or anything else. If they could
smash US up and destroy the last one
they would do it.
| want to say to the party that we
have got as good men in Bulloch and
Emanuel counties as there are in the
State of Georgia, and men who will
stand right where they are until they
die. | am glad to see SO many Civ
ing their views on the subject.

Echoes from the Eighth.
BOWMAN, Ga, Jan. 20, 1898.

BOWMAN, ga, Jan. ZO, 1898.
That was jolly crowd convok-
ed at the Butler Academy on the
30th ult. Everybody came with a
grand purpose, and that purpose was
to devote day to the study of
the system of things under which w
live; to inquire into the things and
wherefores; to familiarize with the
general legislation of the country;
to become better acquainted with
the various political parties, so as to
be able to know what party to charge
with the good and what party to hold
responsible for the pernicious legis-
Iation now being enacted. A new
order Of things is dawning. The
common man has worked harder,
and yet he has grown poorer; he has
economical, and yet lived harder;
he has mustered enough courage to
ask the question, " Why is all this ?"
From the humble cabin, from the
lonely cottage, from the dusty,
burning field, from the ringing an
vii, from the blazing furnace, from
every niche and corner of the labor
world, men are earnestly looking for
the cause. They will not quail.
The march is irresistible. The edict
has gone forth. The few shall not
dictate the policy of the nation and
olOat forever over the wealth of the
many.
Well, funny things have happened,
but the funniest thing yet was the
election for Justice of the Peace in
this District (Goshen). You see,
both the incumbents that is, the
Notary Public and the Justice of the
Peace-were Democrats. Early Sat
urday morning Col. r. H. eileen, that
solon of law (who is Notary Public
by accident), received telegram
from Royston stating that his pres
ence in the flesh and bones (mostly
in bones) was absolutely essential for
the further existence of the town, so
this learned magistrate proceeded to
neglect the duties OF the office he
had solemnly sworn to discharge,
and to obey the imperative demands
of the telegram. But did he go to
Royston? is the query. Not so much
of query either. Now, this dis
tingulshed custodian of law and or
der has a son-in-law who lives hard
by Bowman, and early in the morn
ing he was seen climbing the steps of
his son-in-law's residence, where he
remained until about two o'clock,
playing with the grandchildren.
Great men are fond of children, so
much so that they will even neglect
public trust to be with them.
Col. Bob, why did you run away
that day to keep from holding an
election? Now, there is that Black
stone of law and justice who knows
as much as Gladstone, Esquire Dee
Moon, who by mishap was (but
who by rlght-hap is not) Justice of

The great need of the country is
education of the people, but from
what [ can see, the Democrats are
working against the education of the
poor people, either directly or indi-
rectly. They have taxed the poor
people until they have to keep their
children (boys and girls) at home
and work them in the fields so that
they can be able to get the money to
pay their taxes, support and clothe
their families, and then some OF them
don't do that as they want to do. So
their children grow up without the
proper knowledge to compete with
their rich neighbors' sons, who are
educated at the high schools of tn e
State at the expense Of the poor chill
dren. Under the present manage
ment of some of the colnty commits
sioners, there is no encouragement to
teachers to teach schools; then as in
Colquitt county, they can't make up
good school in some parts of the
county, with plenty of children in
the vicinity of the house, which could
be remedied if the board of education
would, if they were allowed by the
