POpulist State Convention.

In accordance with the Resolution
adopted by the Executive Committee
at its recent meeting, l hereby call
for ameeting of the Peoples Party of
Georgia in Convention at the Capitol
in Atlanta, at noon, on tho 18th day
Of December 1895.
Each county will be represented
by delegates chosen in county meet
ing called for that purpose by the
Chairman of each county.
Each county will be entitled to
twice as many 0otes in the State
Convention as it has Representatives
in the General Assembly, but the
number OF delegates each county
shall send is not limited.
County chairmen should call their
county conventions at once so that
delegates may be chosen.
The State Conventionis called for
the purpose of selecting delegates to
the National Convention of the Pso-
pies Party.
Thess delegates will probably be
instructed by the Convention as to
what changes, if any, the party in
this State desires to make in the Ma
tional Platform.
Consequently there should be a
full representation of the party in
this important meeting.
The undersigned deems it proper
that he should give notice that he
will, at he approaching Convention,
tender his resignation as Chairman
of the Executive Committee. He
gives this notice in order that the
party shall have ample time to con-
slider the choice of his successor.
THos. E. WATSON,
Chairman Elk. Com.

This paper is not the property of
any individual. No one person owns
q controlling interest in its stock.
THE PEOPLES PARTY PAPER be-
longs to the people, to the hundreds
who own its stock.
The President of the company has
done his level best to make the paper
a success. Ia his Judgment, it is the
best piece OF newspaper property to
= be found in the South, when the
small amount of money invested in it
is considered.
But we have not run it for profit.
Our chief aim has been to make it an
educator of the masses, San instructor
in political history and political
economy.
During the dull summer just passed
we put the price down to fifty cents,
to enable our people to get the paper
if they really wanted it.
On thst basis, we have enrolled
some $4,000 names.
We honestly believe that no other
Populist weekly paper in all the land
has so large q list of yearly prepaid
subscribers.
But now the dull season is over.
Eight cent cotton has put money into
your pockets. To carry the paper
through without loss on these 1000
names, we are compelled to go back
to our regular subscription prices.
One dollar per year, seoe'aty.fce
cents for clstbs Of ten.
Remember this friends, and re-
member that your paper has a right
to expect your constant friendship
and your constant efforts TO extend
its circulation.
THE is yo,r paper, and you must
guard its welfare just as you would
that Of any other property belonging
TO you.
Without Your help, we can do
nothing. Yours respectfully,
THos. L. WATSON.

Democrats Disregard the Law.

Mr.. John D. Littl : on Oatober 23d
was sworn in as the Representative
of Muscogee county. At the last
session of the Legislature the Dem
ocratic majority passed Registra-
ton law. This law, while specially
designed to aid Mr.. Black and to de-
feat Mr.. Watson at the special cleo
ton in the 10th District, was a gen.
eral law and applied a. well to Mus
cogee county as to the counties of
the 10Th District. Under this law
no man was entitled to vote unless
he had registered according to the
provisions Of this law and had his
name entere on the voters list by
the duly appointed and qualified Reg
istrars. We are credioly informed
that no Registration hooks were
opened in Mascogee county, hence
there was no legal election and no
qualified voters.
Ii this is correct, Mr.. Little holds
a commission based entirely upon
Illegal votes. We presume, how
ever, this will give MIR. Little no
trouble. He is a Democrat, and
according to the judicial decisions in
our late contest cases nothing ap-
pears to be Illegal that seats a Dem
ocrat or unseats Populist,

The Reason Why.

Tom Watson has decided to con,
test the seat of Major Black in con.
gress, and has employed the Law
firm Of Glenn and Roantree, of At.
lanta, to represent him. He was in
the city yesterday and held a long
conference with the gentlemen as to
the case. He claims that Major
Black was not legally elected and he
will ask for the seat he is to hold.
Mr.. Boykin Wright, who managed
Major B ack's campaign and who is
ca ardent believer in free silver,
when he heard that the firm had
been employed, autographed Mr..
Glenn and asked why 1T was that a
popplist, when he W 'nted a lawyer,
had to employ goldbug To this
Mr.. Glenn re lied: because they
want an honeat man to represent
them. Journal.
Precisely!
A straight,out goldbug is always
an honester man than the free silver
lite who talks silver and votes against
it.

Voted to close the minis however,
and John Sherman himself couldn't
have done any more.
Give US consistent gold-bug any
day, rather than free. silver sneak

To the True. Blue AlIiancemen
of Georgia.

The Peoples Party Paper has
battled for your interests until your
principles have been incorporated in
to the platform of the strongest po-
litical party in Georgia. When
other city papers abandoned you
and your cause the PEoPLE's PARTY
PApER stood by you and your prin-
ciples. When your chosen leaders
deserted you and your PRINCIPLES for
Office and patronage, the editor of
this paper fought the harder for you.
When you most needed friend, you
found it in the Peoples Party Pa
per. In your days of prosperity we
joyed with you, and In your days OF
adversely we sorrowed with you,
Your people have been our people
your God our God.
We believe you are our friends
and co-laborers in this great cause OF
political reform, and that you are
willing to do all in your power to
aid and extend the grand work
which you have so ably and persist
emily advocated.
The pro.rsta of the Exchange
Fund which will be distributed
to the different Alliance organiza-
tlons, in accordance with the action
of the Trustee Stockholders at their
late meetir G in Atlanta, will be an
insignificant amount to each organi-
zation-a mere bagstelle. Yet if it
could be concentrated to one object
it would accomplish great good. We
therefore make you two propositions
as follows;
First. To invest the amount your
Alliance ie entitled to in stock of
Our Publishing company.
Second. To place the same as a
deposit with Our Publishing compa-
ny, and use it as a missionary fund
to plant the PRoPLE's PARTY PAPER
in the home of such friends as you
may direct.
If your Alliance should adopt
the first proposition, it would be an
investment and a nucleus to keep
your Alliance together for future
usefulness, If you should adopt the
second proposition, it would make
converts to your principles and bal
lots for your party.
When your Alliance meets bring
this ma ter before it, and if it adopts
either proposition notify J. It. Dav-
export, of Douglassville, which one
you adopt and instruct him to for
ward us the amount due your AL
lance and take our receipt for the
same. G. f. MCGREGoR for

Two Heroes who Deserve Success


One day last summer two weary
dust-covered travellers tramped the
"big road" from the railroad station
of Mcintyre to the countryside Of
Wilkinson county, the beautiful vii
la ge Of Irwinton.
|. AS they trudged into town and in
quired for Judge Cannon, the village
loungere (who are inevitably Demo
orats) looked upon them sneeringly
and wondered who those trsmps
were, and what they wanted.
In good time the information ar
rived.
1t developed that the dusty travel.
lers were printers, that Judge Cannon
had determined that the Pops should
have newspaper in Wilkinson; that
printing press, and a lot of babies
and other necessary family furniture
was on the way to Irwinton; that
the press was put down stairs in an
empty store, while the wife and
babies were quartert d upstairs; that
the printers had hardly got their coats
off before the first issue Of Their
paper was ont; and that these two
dusty travellers were as full of grit
and brain and push as any two men
in the glorious Tenth District.
All honor to the Leidy boys
They have made "1Ae People,
Gwide''' banner and q pioneer.
In no paper that comes to our
desk is the editorial work better
do1e.
Their leaders are clear, strong and
convincing; their paragraphs are
veritable bullets which hit the bulls
eye every time.
If our friends in Wilkinson and
adjoining counties do not give ZAt
Peoples Guide their warmest sup
port, they will certainly make q
grievous mistake. T. E. w.

Editorial Notes.


Executive Committee of the Peoples
Party of Georgia unanimously recon-
mended that our National platform
be modified in several important par
ticulars.
IL That the Land plank be re-
written so as to free it from the sus'
picion Of Socialism.
(2) That tae Sub-treasury plank
be dropped.
(3) That the Tariff question be
manfully met, as was done in the
Ocala Platform.
(4) That a new plank be added
demanding the abolition of the In
ternal Revenue system.
~ That cowardice and stupidity
be put behind us and brave stand
be taken on the Liquor question.
(6) That distinct declaration be
made demanding the separation of
Church and State, and forbidding the
voting away of publ, funds for pri-
vate or sectarian purposes.
II II
II the National Convention OF our
Party adopts the Platform recon-
mended by the Georgia Executive
Committee, and puts two strong and
conservative msn of undoubted
character upon it, we will sweep the
country.
But if, on the other hand, our lead
ers in National Council permit our
platform to be loaded down with all
the political donkeyisms which the
long haired men and the short haired
women can devise, then we may look
out for another dose OF 1892.
Y
At Tennessee City, in the State OF
Tennessee, an association OF honest,
earnest men is making an experiment
in practical Socialism.
The Association is composed of
members carefully selected from the
mass Of our entire population. In
other words, these gentlemen have
65,000,000 people to choose from, in
order that they may get the suitable
few.
Ii it should prove that one OF the
select is not what he is cracked up
to be, he can be expelled.
If it should appear to one of the
select that the association is not what
1t is cracked up to be, such disgrun.
tied member can seoede.
Unless we have been misinformed,
both of these offs" have borne fruit
at Tennessee City.
Now consider for one moment that
real Socialism, if put into practice as
system of government, would alo v
no room for choice,-would allow no
privilege of secession Or of expulsion
and you at once get an idea of the
immense revolution contemplated by
Socialism.

At Tennessee City all the work

men pool their earnings and share
the profts,-'s hare and share alike u
Now cooperation of that kind is
entirely practicable for the simple
reason that if the association finds
that it has been joined by an incom-
petent workman, or by lazy work
man who will not bring up his
reasonable share of the labor,-out
he goes
He can be expelled, and his place
supplied by capable, industrious
workmen who aoW bring up his rea-
sonable share of the labor.
But if the government were run
ming the whole country on the
Socialist plan, how would you deal
with the incapable and the idle?
You cannot expel them.
The superior workman will not be
willing to work for the idle and the
inferior, and TO have them get pro
rata share of the earnings produced
by his superior skill and industry.
Yet, what can the superior work
man do about it3
He cannot secede.
The superior workman and the in
dustrious laborer would be caught in
a trap where they would have to pay
a royalty on inferiority and indol-
ence.
This would be pleasant to the lazy
and incompetent, but how long would
the skilled and the industrious enjoy
such government?
