The Only Party Which Made
Gains.

Perhaps after some of our es-
teemed contemporaries have quite
finished talking about ''the decline
of Populism," ''the busting Of the
POpulist bubble" and the like, they
may have time to note that the
Peoples party was the one party
in the late elections which cast
larger vote than it polled in the
United States in 1892. Nearly g
600, 200 POpulist votes were count
ed this year, while in 1892, with
the stimulus of a Presidential cleo
ton, only 1,O4l,O2S were cast.
Democratic leaders and journals
that ignore these significant fig
ures are guilty of the most stupen-
dous folly. There cannot be 3
600, 900 Populist votes cast in 1896
and aIDemOcratic president elect
ed, for POpullsm's later gains have
been in Democratic States.IChi-
cago Times, Dem.)

Some of the Results,

The election for Congressman in
the Fourth District gives results
that should encourage every Popu-
list in it, and put to blush every
Democrat.
In the seven parishes in which a
fair QegaD election was had, i. e..
both parties allowed commissioners
at each poll, Mr.. Bailey beat Mr..
Ogden 2274 votes. But in the 9th
er five, Mr.. Bailey's majOrities were
converted (as i'm Red River) into
unwarrantcd majOrities for Mr..
Ogden.
The grossest of frauds were per-
pctrated in these parishes and will
be shown up in due time, and it
will be shown to tho satisfaction
of every one, except the ballot box
thieves themselves, that Mr.. Bailey
was fairly and legally elected. All
selfrespecting and conscientious
Democrats know this now and
many of them admit it.
The only hope of the scoundrels
who have perpetrated these frauds
i'm the name of Democracy and to
the injury of the better element of
Democrats is that the POpulists
will not be able to raise the money
absolutely required to contest, and
that their wretched crimes will
thus be allowed to remain half
hidden from the frOwn of public
condemnation.
Our campaign has been one of
sacrifice, and it will be another and
greater to make this contest, but
duty calls where only patriotism
can follow, and the heroes who
have rolled up an honest majority
of the votes of this district are
able and willing to bear the bur-
den of testing every known re-
source of law and order to secure
their rights. Failing by such meth
DDS, they are ready and anxious to
use those means which they (the
same people, used in support of
the Democratic party when it was
dominated by the same powers
which it is to-day using against
its opponents.
We dread war, riots or the shed
ding of blood, but the Anglo-Saxon
will never be dominated by an.
other race, however real, to say
nothing of an imaginary one, and
roAis in store for the ballot thieves
in the next election. They ought
to, and doubtless will be shot down
like dogs.

benoit's Contest.

Having seen in the Times-DcmO-
crat and other papers that Hon. A.
Benoit, Peoples party candidate
for Congress from the Fifth Con-
gressiOnal District of Louisiana
would contest Hon. C. j. Boatner's
seat, we sought Mr.. Benoit and
asked him for the facts in the case.
He informed us that he had served
notice on Mr.. Boatner that he
would contest his election on the
grounds of wholesale fraud and
intimidation east of the Ouachita
river, and had also written to the
Governor and Secretary of State
protesting against the issuance of a
certificate to his competitor on the
grounds above stated. MIR. Bsnoit
informed us that. he contends that
the apparent majority obtained for
Boatner in the parishes of East
Carroll, Madison, Tensas and Con-
cOrdia, amounts to 5000 but that
this represents merely ballot box
stufing in those parishes where the
total vote did not exceed one-tenth
of the returns. He stated further
that he contends that in other par
ishes east of the river there was
wholesale bulldozing of the neg
roes before and at the election and
that he will be able to show that he
was elected by fully 1000 majority
of the honest vote actually cast.
He says he intends to press the
matter to final and complete in
vestigation and, if possible, expose
all frauds committed in the inter-
est of true ballot reform.-MOn-

The Pullman Palace Car Com.
panv recently declared a dividend
of 81 per share. Only a few
months since the same concern al
legged that their shops were being
operated at q loss, which necessi-
tated the reduction of the wages OF
their employees to almost a starv-
ing basis. The employees at Pull
man appealed in vain for wages
which would enable them to pro-
vide the necessaries for their fami-
lies, and when they struck for
higher wages, Pullman found the
strong arm of the government to
protect him. If the shops were
operated at a loss, how can the
company declare dividend of 81
per share except by q systematic
acknowledgements, DEM.

WHY DODGE THE QUESTION

We find it somewhat strange
that men and especially those who
pretend to be friends to the people
are endeavoring to dodge the main
issues in the discussions of the
question Of hard times, syetit is the
case. We hear men who are forced
to admit that the country is in a
deplorable condition, and that the
chances for the masses of the peo-
pie to suffer in the near future are
extremely great and yet you find
the Democratic press and would
be Democratic leaders giving var
ious excuses and suggesting var
ious remedies. Of course there
are some who have laid down their
prejudices and investigated for
themselves, and this class seem to
realize the seriousness of the mat
ter and are at least willing to give
the masses of the people credit for
being right. These, however, we
are sorry to say are very few.
The majority are always ready to
come forward with their old worn
out theory of ''laziness," ''over-
production" slack of confidence"
''sound money" and other delusive
absurdities, instead of coming
down to an investigation of the
real conditions that have existed
in this as well - all other coun-
tries during the periods of their
greatest prosperity
We do not have to examine very
closely to find that the periods in
tho history of this, Is we'll as all
other countries in which the peo-
pie were prosperous and happy,
were the times in which there was
a large volume of money in circu-
lation among the people, and the
people were able 10 buy the COM
forts of life. This made.business,
and business makes prosperity
But enforced economy (if it rises
to that dignity has always de-
pressed business and will always
do so.
We give below an extract from
the Picayune which is in the right
direction, but oE esteemed con-
temporary fails 10 carry his rea-
sonings far enough to make the
matter clear to the great masses of
the people, but, however, it Is one
step in that direction and we trust
our neighbor will further pursue
the subject Here is what it is:
Suppose that each inhabitant in
the United States should be forced
by poverty to shorten hn bread
supply to the extent Of one ounce

Nice Kettle of Fish.

We see from several papers that
Murphy j. Foster is u candidate
for reelection, and it is authOrita-
lively stated that John Fitzpat
rick is supporting him. Fitzpat-
rick says: "Thc Governor is a good
Democrat and a good man, and
therefore he will support him." 1t
is said upon the other hand, that
Foster has said that he will do all
in his power to have Callahan and
other bOotlle councilmen pardoned.
If all be true Of Murphy j. Foster
that the Democrats themselves
have said of him relative to stuff.
fing ballot boxes in, st. Mary par
ish, he, today, would be behind
the bars of the penitentiary, but
instead he is enjoying the fruits of
ballot box stuffing, and contempla-
ting a continuation Of the same By
u union with those whom the lead
ing papers are denouncing as the
most incarnate fiends outside of
the penitentiary. We do not wish
to detract anything from the plu-
mage of these gentlemen, but when
we come to consider the welfare OF
the whole people, we find the pros
poets Of reform surrounded by the
deepest gloom. We nov under
stand what his excellency meant
when he openly declared at Rus
ton, "that the party machinery
would be used to perpetuate the
Democratic party" We clearly
see what the Governor means when
he uses the terms "DemGcratic
party" We only have to run our
memory back a few years to see
exactly the same state of facts that
now exist, but iii those days we
called it carpetbagism, scOundrel-
ism and robbery, but then it was
the Republicans, now it is the
Democrats, (sO-called), who are
domineering the same class of
people by the same heinous out
rageOus system of pollutiOns and
ballot box stuffilng that prevailed
then. Are the people in a better
condition to day to labor at it than
they were theni We say emphat-
ically no. Every true Louisianian
points with pride to the green spots
that marks the graves of those
whose blood was split to wipe out
what we called the darkest days
of Louisiana. The scenes Of COu-
shatta, Colfax, New Orleans, and
even the historic city Of old Match.
itOches are too fresh in the minds
of the people for them to silently
submit to these infamous frauds,
which if they are not stopped will
cause this same history to repeat
itself.
We are proud to know that to-
day as then, there are honest men
in the democratic party that do not
endorse these methods, and it is al
ready written in the hearts and de-
termination Of these honest men
that it shall stop, and, we advise
our noble(D Governor and his fol-
lowers that they had better see the
hand writing, upon the wall. We

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 2O.-Tom
Watson, the Populist candidate
from the Tenth Georgia District
has accepted representative j. G.
c. Blacks offer to settle the con-
troversy whether the Populist or
the Democrat was elected on No
vember 9th last, by trying the
thing over again. Black on the
face of the returns had over a
thousand majority, but the same
counties in the election for COVER
nor gave a decided majority for
the POpulist candidate.
