The Louisiana populist., 1894-11-30
POINTS FOR THE PEOPLE.

Ahcfc sccIIS 10 nave Deen an over
production of populists in Georgia and
failure of the democratic crops.
Georgia populists did well to re.
duce the -, 900 democratic ma ajority of
two years ago to 1000 this year, despite
the most glaring fraEds on the part OF
the democrats. The Texas populists
will beat the record, however.-South-
ern Mercury.
because man has the right to
vote carries with it duty. He should
know how to vote, and il he is an
honest thinking man he will study
politics, or he will stay away from the
polls till he has a reason for his opin-
ions to be expressed by the ballot.
The republicans, without prom
ising any reform or change of policy
whatever, expect to win a victory
through the disgust of the public at
the democratic party. which is now di-
vided and disabled by treachery until
1t amounts to little more than a de-
moralized mob.-Chicago Express.
The Illinois State Federation Of
Labor, has committed itself to support
the peoples party. The peoples party
of Illinois has also adopted almost the
entire platform of the federation of
labor, which is decided gain, the f.
of L. platform being exceedingly
staunch and strong, Lroad and deep,
uninjured by the cutting and trimming
politicians.-Wealth Makers.
The populist party must be downed.
1t cannot be permitted to exist longer,
injuring car campaign and spelling
our plans. In republican districts the
democrats should assist the repub-
licans in defeating the populists, and
IN democratic districts republican sup
port will come to the democrats. In
this way we will kill this crank party.
Chairman Babcock, of Republican
National Congressional Committee.
Though often lost the peoples bat
tie is ever won. So long as unjust con-
ditions contihde, so long will the people
protest against injustice. So long as
the few live without labor by the sweat
of the many, SO long will the outraged
millions insist upon their rights. Men
and women are realizing as never be-
fore what is hurting them, and they
will never rest until the causes of
their ills are removed.-Star and Kan
san.
Isn't it somewhat remarkable
circumstance, if the present admins
tration is defending the gamblers and
joint keepers, and if the republican
party and its candidates are the inn
placable enemies of these outlaws that
they pretend to be, that every last
gambler and jointist should be oppos-
ing the reelection of his friends and
putting campaign material into the
hands of his enemies in order to help
them succeed? Haven't the republican
managers got the plan of their cam
paign little mixed?-Topeka (Kan.)

Out west, the peoples party is
gathering all the laboring people into
Its folds. In the north, all the labor
unions are declaring for the peoples
party. In the east, the new party is
being indorsed by all kinds of labor
and down south, whole
states are being enrolled on our side.
The democratic party has been literal
Iy wiped out of the political arena, by
the actions of Grover Cleveland and the
last congress, and the republican party |
has nothing to offer for the betterment.
Of the industrial classes, hence the peo-
Pies party is the coming power, and
nothing will or can prevent its success.
