When a candidate for Office be-
gins late in canvass to try to get
the Office on the supposed ineligi-
bility of his opponent, it is a very
strong indication that he has count.
ed noses and has found out that
he has not got enough votes in his
own party to elect him, and that
he must Of necessity, enceavor to
get votes from his opponents par
ty By trying to make them believe
that their candidate can't hold the
office if elected. But that effort
will be complete failure in this
county because the people know
that every Democratic nominee is
legally, mentally and morally quail
flied to hold the Office for which he
is running, so that any Popullte
candidate that can't win on his
own merit must go under on the
5th day of November.

this county they have caused more
discord and bad feeling among the
white people than was felt in the
dark days of reconstruction. They
have done nothing that commands
the support of the people.
What prospect does the Popu-
lite party hold out to the young
man of Alfalfa county who is ambi-
tious of political preferment? No
Populite was ever elected to a
county Office among us and we
don't believe one ever will be. In
the Congressional district and the
Stateatl large the Populite has
still worse show.
No, young man, you cannot at
ford to vote the Populite ticket.
No good can spring from it, and
there is no end to the dangers OF
it.
Sons of Confederate Veterans,
vote as your father shot. They
shed their blood and laid down
their lives for the very principles
for which the Democratic party
contends today. Sons of old men
that were once Democrats, vote
for the opinions your father held
in the prime and vigor of their
manhood. Vote for the party that
wrested your homes from carpet
bag domination. Vote for the
party that represents all that is
best in Southern brains and char
acter. Vote for the party that in
after years you will not blush to
own. Vote for the best interests
of your homes, your families, and
your neighbors. Vote the Demo
cratic ticket from top to bottom

In Sails, Sept. II, 1896, Mrs.
Allie Simmons, aged 80 years and
eleven months.
"Leaves have their time to fall
And flowers to wither at the north
winds breath;
And stars to set but all,
Thou hast all reasons for thy own, Oh!
DEATH"
Mrs. Simmons was a woman,
richly endowed by nature with all
those lovely graces, rare virtues
and rich qualifications that 90 to
make up the Poets ideal. A per
feet woman nobly planed. Faith
full in all the relations of life. As
friend she was found true, trusted
and tried; socially, always modest,
retiring and pleasant; as a relative
her extreme care and love for, and
to those, allied to her by blood,
was beautifully exemplihed; and
as member of the church and a
christian, it was here that thelove-
ly and symmetrical character shone
with its brightest lustre. She
lived we'll, and Oh! blissful knowl-
edge she died we'll.
Dear Miss Allie what a sweet
fragrance clings about the name,
and my sweet friend in this tribute
weave for thee flower of sweet
remembrance, the lovely forget
me-not. Long shall memory abide
with us for thee, as long as time
shall be.
Hail! sweet glorified spirit,
Thy sisters one in truth in love,
Bring to thee, gathered from our hearts
this wreath.
An offering to thy worth.

COUNTRYMEN THINK !

We have often heard the minis
tiers say in their appeals to the sin
ner, "stop and think" and it is
our judgment if the way-faring
Populites would halt for an instant
and view the road that they are
travelling and who they are travel
ing with, that they would at least
discontinue their folly. Think
who you are following? Are not
the ablcst and most tried states
men and citizens of this State and
country against you? Who was it
that stood in the Legislative halls
at Washington and spoke for days
and hours to prevent the pas.
sage of the iniquitous force bill?
Was he a Populite2 Is there a
single man that reached any dis
tinction in the great civil strife
with your Would you rather fol-
low Perryman of Texas, who left
his own country dishonored, and
Osborn. OF Georgia, who was SEN
fenced to the rock pile, and is per-
haps now fugitive from justice,
than George and Walthall who
you have never had cause to dis
trust?
Think about it. Don't fill your
head with prejudice and closeyour
ears to reason. There is nothing
in Populism. Every charge
against the integrity and honesty
of the Democracy has been dis
proven.
The Populites lived on prejudice
and adversely; but now as brighter
days have come, their only re-
source is prejudice. They cannot
survive long on this. The minds
OF the people cannot always be
deluded. It's falacy and a fake
without party leaders or principle,
and it is only a matter of very
short while when a Populite in this
country will be as lonesome as
Robinson CrusG on the desert
island.
The Populite tug is sinking, the
old ship of democracy is passing
along; you can hail it if you will.
Will you do it?
