lie Says the Tidal Wave of Reform has
Reached Mississippi.
Never before in the history of this
country has there been a more thor
ough ava kening Of the plain common
people and greater desire manifested
by all classes of our citizens to ascer-
tain the cause or causes of the general
depression which overshadowS every
industry and PARALLELS business than
now.
At Guntown on Thursday Of last
week an assemblage of two thousand
people came together to hear the po-
litical issues of the day discussed by
DR.. Brown of Columbus and the edi-
tor of the Messenger. a more intelli-
gent, earnest and we'll behaved au-
dience it has never been our fortune
to meet anywhere, and we had the
gratifying assurance before we left
that score of converts to the Peoples
cause were made that day. The vast
crowd represented the four counties
of Lee, Prentiss, Itawamba and Union,
and the gratifying assurance was Civ
en- on every hand that the people were
arousing from their lethargy, and are
putting on the armOr of patriotic citi-
zenship preparatory to the desperate
contest with plutocracy now pending
On Friday DR.. Brown and this writer
met and addressed respectable au-
dience at Athens Camp ground in
Monroe county, where the same deep
interest and determined purpose to
make every honorable and legitimate
effort to reclaim the country from the
grasp of the money-devi and restore
it to the people, was apparent
to even the casual observer.
Reputable citizens were there,
who had never read Peoples
party paper and never before heard
Populist principles discussed, who
told US, that they were convinced as to
the correctness of our position and
that henceforth they would be found
squarely sin the middle of the road
But to us the most surprising and
gratifying demonstration occurred at
Meridian on Saturday, where the Hons.
w. p. Ratliff, j. III. Jamison and the
Messenger editor addressed an au-
dience of eight hundred voters, half
of whom at least were residents of the
city. At IL o'clock Judge Terrell very
kindly adjourned his court that the
meeting might be held and every nook
and corner of the large court room
was crowded to its utmost capacity
with farmers from the country, rail
road employees, business men, me-
chanics and working men from the
city. Hon. w. III. Stinson OF Lauder
dale was chosen chairman and Bro,
McAulilfe of the Meridian Times sec
rotary of the meeting. A ringing pre-
amble and resolution was presented by
the committee, of which Mr.. A. Stock
dale, President of the American Rail
way Union No 1877 was chairman, and
it was unanimously adopted by a ris-
ing vote.
The Associated Press usually tell
the public that such meetings were
composed in the main of Democratic
curiosity seekers, but this was one
time when the indifferent looker-on
was CONSPICUOUS for his absence. The
harmony, unanimity and earnestness
OF the proceedings was an eye-opener

A WoMAN's WoRK.-A sad story is
that of Il young man oflhis city, whose
name for obvious reasons, is omitted.
Five years ago he was an intelligent
and we'll to-do man, having about S25-,
600 worth of property. About that
time ne met and fell in love with a
pretty, interesting girl, whose large,
soft grey eyes and masgcs of dark curly
hair enchained his heart in way that
made everything else in life Of little
interest. He loved aud thought he was
loved in return: for, unskiled in the
knowledge of women, he accepted her
actions and protestations as proofs Of
her affection and through one golden
summer he was wildly happy.
Then came the change-she began to
grow cold, and finally told him she low
ed another man. He tried to bear up
under The cruel blow-to 90 about as
usual and take an interest in life. But
he was too sorely hurt, and within a
week he was an inmate Of an insane
asylum, within padded celia raving
maniac Finally the violence left him,
and he fell into silent, melancholy
condition. more hopeless OF cure than
the widest rawlings.
He was DISCHARGED from the asylum
as harmless" and can he seen daily on
the streets of Richmond, wandering
aimlessly up ana down, pressing his
hands TO his head in a bewildered way

The Nan from Montana al Sea.

The American steamship line has
abandoned carefully elaborated plan
Of feeding its passengers on course din
ners instead Of allowing them to order
what they choose from the bill Of fare
and getting il at once. On the last east
ward trip of the steamer Paris the eX
pertinent was tried-but only twice.
Passengers who wanted slice of chick
en- aud then frantic scramble to the
deck with a look at the sea, all III the
space of ten seconds, had to wait until
the rest had eaten their way through
strata of hors d'Wuvre, soup, fish, en-
tree. sc, before they could get their
chicken.
The first meal served in this fashion
was very well put on, and would have
been voted a distinct success on land,
but it took two hours to eat, and the
vessel wouldn't keep still while it was
being eaten II was splendid thing
for these of the seasick, who wanted
only soup, and they were delig
But the Others weren't.
Next DAY those Of the passengers who
had recovered talked it over and decid-
ed that the new plan was not brilliant.
The question arose, however, of who
should bell the cat and head tie protest.
Afeer some search Montana man, with
voice like FOG horn playingan accom-
paniment to an unoiled buzz saw, was
stimulated up to the sticking point, and

not only all over the ship, but in the

murs of appreciation greeted him. In
sad term he enumerated the woes and
trials Of the seasicll, who tried to bore
ali the way through a course dinner,
and he demanded an immediate return
of eating the pudding first if you so
elected.
"out in Montana said he, "we
have everything put on the table at
once. and each fellow starts where he
bias a mind to. Some folks like to be-
Gin with the coffee and end with the
soup. Freedom is the basis Of the
American flag"
As he went on he became even more
enthusiastic and magnetic than this.
He worked every one up to a condi-
tion of wild enthusiasm, and when he
perforated by reading his resolution it
was carried almost unanimously, even
the stewards forgetting all sense of
duly toward the line, voting in the af-
firmalive.
