"Nseriwether Democrat" Returns
to the Charge.

Mr.. EDITOR: I beg you will al
low me to differ with you when you
say that 'Mr. Lanham replies to
'Meriwether Democrat and Mr..
Lanham will pardon me, I am sure.
when I say that can find scarcely
anything TO reply to in his weak
labored, and, to him, high sounding
epistle.
The gentleman who proposed to
form the Dem ocratic club, informs
me that he was only anxious to
have pure Democratic club; and
when Mr.. Lanham fatters himself
that he was angry or wished to
make any one elss' SO, Mr.. Lanham
is grievously mistaken. I said and
reiterate it that 1 did not censure
or wish to pass judgment on these
Third party men: I said and [ re-
iterate it, that thought it rather
singular, men who openly proclaim
themselves Third party men,
should help organize Democratic
clubs. In Georgia and elsewhere
Third party men are organized and
have separate and distinct clubs
from the Democrats. This l think
is proper, manly, and right. If
there is a man in our club who
does not endorse the Democratic
platform of 1892 that we fought
and Won on, am unaware of the
fact and will vote to expel him,
because he ought not to belong to a
Democratic organization. Anyone,

Hunting Seed Corn and Buying
Meat.

Mr.: EDITOR This morning there
was light frost to be seen on pin'-
straw, which makes the cotton look
sick and bad, and will be set
back to it for quite a while. Corn
is not hurt as bad as the cotton,
as it stands the cold much better
than cotton does. By all means.
people ought to make plenty of
corn to do them, and to fatten
enough meat for home use, and a
little to spare. That is the way
people did before the war. In
those days if a man did not have
quite enough bacon to do him un-
til he killed hogs, he could get as
much bacon from his neighbours
as he wanted. He did not have to
60 away off 10 town for it, and that
is the way this should be now. ]
am surprised at the scarcity of corn
in the county. A..great many people
have been and are yet going over
all creation hunting seed corn they
actually did not have seed corn to
plant. Such poor farming will al
ways keep the people poor and hard
up. They never will be any better
off unless they manage better, and
raise their supplies at home.
The oat and wheat crops are
generally sorry.
Mr. w. J. Adams's house caught
on fire yesterday from the stove,
but by the heroic work of his son
Joe the fire was extinguished and
his house saved.
CANDIDATES FOR THE LEGISLATURE
The Reformers are beginning to

that candidates for the Legislature
must express themselves and come
out and say who they will support

Gov. Tillman they will vote for
them, and if they do uot support
him they will not vote for them,
to put a stick in their hands to
crack their heads with.

A New Conner to the Regions OF

Mr.. EDITOR: In the beginning
1 will say I am new conner in
this vicinity, and am deeply i'm
pressed by the difference of the
soil, the manner of cultivation, and
the growth of crops in comparison
to the section from which I moved.
Land hereabouts is easily Guilt
vated, no clods to contend with, no
use of harrows, being loose gray
sandy soil. Cotton, generally
speaking, is chopped and plowed
and looks well. The oat crop is
fairly good. The people are con-
tented. attend to their own busi-
ness and come. as near being even
with the world as any section OF
the county.
There is some sickness IN this
vicinity. Mrs. Doolittle is sick
and has been for sometime. Mrs
]. F. Grihis has been quite sick
but am glad to say is much better
now.

The Alltance-Picnic at McKen-
drees on Saturday, May 49,.

Mr.. EDITOR: the Alliance pic
mic at McKendrees on Saturday,
the 18th inst, was in the highest
degree a success. Having been
advertised only one week previous,
the crowd was small but the day
was spent pleasantly by all who
attended. We listened with close
attention, to the speeches of some
of our candidates for the Legisla-
ture. Mr.. Brooks Mayson first ad-
dressed the audience, with few
but appropriate remarks. After
wards came our young friend Mr..
Thurpaond, who gave us an address
which has been the topic of the
day every since. Your correspond
ent has heard many such remarks
as these: 81 tell you, he gets there;
his speech waa to the point; in my
opinion he will do to depend
upon"
And, fellow citizens, it behooves
us to know whom to depend upon
IN the coming campaign. Then
came our honored Senator, DR.. w.
H. Zimmerman, who somewhat
unveiled to us the enormous ex-
travagance of our U. S. Senators
and our traitorous President. And
right here I will say if Senator NJ.
G. Butler can accomplish so much
by being absent from his place of
business one half of his time, had
he better not spend the other half
there trying to reduce some of
the unnecessary expenses? All!
General, you had better spend as
much time there as possible, for
Washington will soon be place of
the past for you.
Last, but by no means least,
spoke L. J. Williams, who was a
"charter member of the Reform
in South Carolina, and
one of the blue hens chickens so
far as this movement was concern
ed. He made an excellent speech
and fine impression on his
hearers.
After Senator Timmerman's ad-
dress came a feast, sucha one as
would have sharpened the appetite
OF Cresus. Mr.. Editor, if you
want a good square meal just come
up on the borders of "Tricham and
Graba,l."
I see where Capt. Jas. Tillman
is right in ''looking around for
country wife, He knows good
rations when he sees them. But,
you must dc as near like
country folks as possible. if you
want a country girl. "While in

There was never time in the his

NAvAsoTA, Texas, May IA.
Mr.. EDITOR: After along and
tiresome journey of about four
teen hundred miles and a short
recreation, I am reminded that [
made a promise to the dear old
ADVERTISER to write and give an
account of myself while away
from the loved ones at home in old

Atlanta at $50 o'clock for Mont

arriving at New Orleans at 2:30
P. M, May 9th. There this vast
aggregation of Baptists separated
some going the Texas Pacific
route and others going the South
ern Pacific by way of Houston {;
myself, among the ones going the
lower route, arrived at Houston at
7 A. NJ, May 10th. We took in a
portion of this large city; but our
time being short we did not wan
der very far. We left Houston at
9 Ell route to Dallas. But I stop
ped at Navasota where I have a
brother and other relatives, taking
them all by surprise as they did
not know | was coming.
Navassota is beautiful little
town on the Houston and Texas
Central R. R. near to the Brazos
River. Its population is about three
thousand. There are some very
fine lands here, especially the
Brazos River bottoms where the
cotton will grow 80 large that it hal
to be cut down with all axe before
you can plow up the old stalks II
the spring. Small boys often have
to climb the stalk to pick the toI
cotton. l was talking with an ole
Texas farmer about the cultivation
of cotton on these bottoms and ht
told me how they planted after
freshet. He called it "walking-in'
cotton. You SOW tho seed and ster
on them which packs them IN sht
mud and in twenty-four hours it il
up and ready to chop. This is wha
he says about it, not having seer
any "walked-in" cannot vouch fol
its truth.

waist to shoulder high and cotton
will average eight inches in height
and has begun to take on squares

Mr.. Editor, can say that he is a
Democrat, but q tree is judged by
it's fruit. If l know anything
about Democracy in the teachings
of its leaders for a hundred years,
I am free to confess that [ am SO
ignorant that I can see nothing
pointing Or looking towards a
strong centralized government,
such as government ownership OF
railroads and telegraph, sub-treas-
ury, government loaning money at
a low rate of interest on land and
other fallacies, or as it has been
aptly termed "wild cat" legisla-
tion, Mr.. Lanham dare not deny
that there are men in his club who
say that they are Third party men.
Mr.. Lanham's little buncombe
about liberties and rights of suf-
frage," etc., is entirely irrelevant,
as I said nothing about such
things, and I suppose friend Press
wanted to sup and say" something
that would sound "big." Another
thing friend Press thought sounded
well was that he and his people
"were born Democrats" I can
understand how man can be born
with a white or black skin, but to
be born with the understanding
and imbued with all the doctrines
of sound Democracy passes my
comprehension. But I suppose
friend Press thought that he had
said" something that would
sound we'll even If there was no
sense in it. I would like for my
friend to tell me something about
his friend who voted the Third
party ticket in the last election,
the men who voted for Weaver,
after they had obligated themselves
to vote for and sustain the Dem
ocratic nominees. He will remem-
ber that the men who bolted the
Democratic ticket and voted for
Haskell in 1890 were hauled over
the Goals and made to swear that
they would vote for the Democratic
nominees in 1892, we all promised
that, but the men who voted for
Weaver did not carry out their part
of the contract and friend Press
knows it. Will these same men do
it again this year if the nominees
do not suit them?
