New Deal Wanted All Around.
! [Southern Associated Press.l
Tillman to day gave surprising inter
view to the press. A correspondent
read to the governor an extract from a
letter from populist. in which the wri-
ter said that the only thing he did not
admire about the governors political
course, so far, was that he did not have
the moral courage to come out squarely
and call himself a populist. He was
asked if he had seen all the references
made to him by the Northern press as
the "Populist Governor"
| Governor Tillman rose and walked up
and down. His eye flashed fire and he
said:
Yes, they call me populist. l will
tell them that am the truest represen-
tative of Jeffersonian democracy in
American politics to day. Let me tel
you, don't see anything ahead now but
for the southern democrats to combine
their forces with the Western Populists,
and go into the next national campaign
on new party lines.
The northern democrats and republi-
cans are now together. 1t is a combina-
tion of the moneyed interests"
The governor then, turning suddenly
and in a some what excited manner, said :
II despise Cleveland and his mug
wumps. he is no better than the rank
est republican. He has destroyed the
democratic party. The South and West
will be forced now to unite and have q
complete reorganization of party lines
The people who are afraid of the negro
and who are separated on other ques
tions will have to cast aside their fears
ing the money combination.
"Cjeveland has been working under
the dictation of New York bankers, and
bargaining with them on the issue of
bonds. He promised the banks if they
would take them there would be no more

Congress-. Congress passed the seignior-
a e act, aud he vetoed the BILL indicating
plalniy The nature of his bargain with the
b .nkcls
"ihe whole thing is such a scheme OF
robbery that he ought to be impeached
for it. II is shame and disgrace. The
idea of this great government having tC
beg the assistance of a lot of Shylocks is
so outrageous that there is not any Ian
guage too strong to characterize it.
"Cleveland is owned, body and soul by
| these scoundrels. He secured his nomi
nation at Chicago through the influence
of subsidized press, and with the vote:
he lacked there after exhausting such
means, he bought with promises Of Fat
ronage, which promises have been since
redeemed.
The goods have been delivered. His
f attempt to browbeat and debauch the
senators and representatives was out
rageous in the extreme. If those COW
ardly congressman up there had any ap-
probation of their duty to their consti
tuencies at dome they would impeach
him.
Consider the farce and treason to the
in terests of the masses of issuing bonds
under a pretence of increasing the sold
reserve when the same gold is paid in al
one window and drawn out at another
with the silver certificates. And the same
process can 20 on till the silver certifi
Gates are exhausted and the people have
to pay the interest"
What is your idea of what ought tc
be done ?"
well, think that the silver men OF
this country ought to meet in convention
: at Memphis or St. Louis and organize a
fight to control the next congress. Lei
