Editor Peoples Party Paper:
As from number of reasons l
have thought for some weeks of PEN
ming you few lines from this little
end of miserable government, but
having just read an article in the
grand silver Constitution, published
in your city, and said article being
under name Champaign in Alabama"
[ am prompted to write even if my
nissive should find its way to the
waste basket. The Constitution says
that there appears to be no doubt
whatever but that Gen. Charles M.
Shelley and Joseph F. Johnston will
be the favorites in the race for the
Democratic nomination for governor
next year, and says if Johnston runs,
it will be, of course, on free silver
platform, while Gen. Shellsy will
advocate the gold standard, and
further says the campaign question
now is, shall Populiats and others
who, in the last State election voted
against the Democratic nominee, but
who now desire to return to the
Democratic party, be allowed to par
ticipate in the primaries upon
profession Of their faith and SOL
umn promise to abide by the result
of the primaries, and support the
nominee. "It appears" says the
Constitution, s'to be undoubtedly
true that many heretofore Democrats
who went off after Captain Kolb's
will O. the wisp, are DESTROYS of re-
turning to the old party. Naturally
they want voice in the election of
its color bearers"
First l would like to remind the
Con stitution Of letter published in
their paper a few numbers back,
written by J. F. Johnston, of Biz
mipgham, Alabama, in which he
said that il in the Nationel Conven-
ton next year gold man was nomi-
mated, he would support the nominee,
but oh yes he is free silver man of
course. Nov what will become Of
Johnston's free silver supporters
when Johnston, according to his
pledge to the dear old party, votes
for gold standard president? They
will naturally have to return to the
will O the wisp. The Constitution
may possibly be right in their asser-
ton that portion of beings calling
themselvesPopulist will, if permitted
support Johnston, but |, for one, let
1T amount to what 1t may, can inform
the Constitution that these men were
never Populist. No, not at all. If
they had ever been Populists, they
would have too many brains to be
caught by free silver Democrat.
Alabama is my naive state, and
having had conversation just re.
Gently with prominent gentleman
of that state, | am informed that. it
is just the same as it was when will
O the wisp Kolb was in the race.
They (the Populists) can poll the
majority of the legal votes in the
stale OF Alabama at any time, but it
Is there like it is in the 10th of Geor-
gia. 1t is not always the majority
that wins.
Yours for the success that Is due you,

Yes, verify, girls are of few days
and full of mischief and whosoever
is deceived thereby is not wise.
When the fair one cheweth gum
with much haste and stampeth her
pretty foot with much vigor, then
beware. She cometh forth in the
evening with low neck and short
sleeves, but in the morning she lieth
in bed while her mother hustleth.
She eateth all winter of the devoted
young mans oysters, and partaketh
With glee of his sleigh rides, but
when the gentle spring time cometh
she wink tn the other eye and goeth
with new beau.

Rice d O'Connor of Augusta, get
orders from steamboat men upon the
Mississippi River for S ICES. All
through advertising in the Peoples
PARTY PAPER. But there are some
merchants who can't see any business
in advertising in Populist paper.
Rice Il O'Connor are BUSINESS men
as well as Democrats. They make
their living out of their business
some merchants expect to make their
living out of politics. They refuse
to advertise in Populist papers.
We clip the following from the
Pennsylvania Democratic platform.
Ii Populism has done nothing else, it
has educated its adherents above the
point Of being taken in by such slush,
bombast and falsehoods as this:
"The Democratic party, in conven-
ton assembled, hereby renew its
allegiance to and declares Its faith in
the principle of Democracy as for
mulated by Jefferson and illustrated
by Madison, Monroe, Jackson and
Cleveland. 1t congratulates the
Ameri AN people upon the first fruits
of the Democratic administration,
which Inherited from its Republican
predecessor bankrupt treasury and
unwise financial legislation, impaired
public credit aud widespread dis
aster, aud which, under the sagacious,
courageous, and patriotic leadership
of its great President, Grover Cleve-
land, led the people out of ths slough
of dependency to the high round of
substantial and increasing pros
perity."
Jefferson and Cleveland,-Monroe
and Cleveland--prosperity and CIeve-
land ont.
The New York Democracy has
met in convention with Tammany on
top. The platform declares for the
single gold standard-the retirement
of thu Greenbacks-thus giving the
banking corporations monopoly on
money which means monopoly on
all things that are bought and sold.
1t indirectly endorses the sale of
liquors in New York ON Sundays
and endorses Cleveland's public
policy. We see no place on the plat,
form for the Democrat who believes
in the Monroe doctrine, who believes
that the seventh day is no y unto the
Lord who believes in temperance,
or free silver coinage or Government
issue of currency, but we presume
they will vote the ticket all the same.
Ii the bankers are really in favor
of honest money, why did they force
the exception clause in the greenback
which made it dishonest money? If
they we're so sensitive to the "honor"
of the Government why did they
force the Government to dishonor its
own currency.
Who Owns America?

Exposition i, in full blast in Atlanta.

ed homespun folks on the Exposition
grounds if the directors can Keep
the show agoing till November.
Well tell the country people of
the South when to come to the Elk,

the recommendation of the Demo
cratic papers wi spend his money
before the show really gets und er
way.
If you are hard working coun
try fellow and got money to throw
away you can come to the EXPOSE
ton now. If you hav'nt got mon y
to throw to the dogs you just keep
it for awhile.
Atlanta is great city. 1t is worth
20 or three dollars to country boy
to see the street cars and big fine
houses. But there ia not yet two or
three dollars worth of exposition on
hand.
There is plenty here for the rich
Eastern and Western Democrat. 1t
might pay him to come snd spend
two OF three months in Atlanta. 1t
would pay Atlanta and wouldn't
hurt ua,A but the other fellow-our
fellow-the Populist, we would
counsel differently.
There may be as much money in
the country now a. ever there was,
but We doubt III aud if rumor is true

The travelling sh w men can

supply Of money, if playing to half

Money is becoming SO scarce that

tracts and government bonds. But
one "pick- pocket" has been arrested
since the Exposition opened.
All of the the Democratic ss21 year

last Wednesday. diamond Row"
in Augusta gave up all its negro con-

The 'mantle Of silence" will have
to be supplemented with the "mantle
of charity to cover the '21 year
old" n. groes and white boys corroll-
ed from Diamond Row and the State
University in Mr.. Blacks interest
last Wednesday.
Democracy in Augusta has taken
on thew BIRTH" Over one-sixth of
its vote last Wednesday was COM
posed of "21 year old negroes"
"Marvel not that l said unto thee,
ye must be born apain, and straight
way went Boykin Wright of Augusta
and had 1900 negro boys born in 8
months in the year 1874, and this is
the "victory that overcometh the
world, even our faith,'' echoes Major
Black.
"Verily, verify, 1 say unto you,
except a man be born again he can
moi" vote, said Major Blacks cam
paign manager, and the he elers dis
carded the spirit and produced the
flesh.
If the Democratic party wishes to
disfranchise the negro it should have
the manhood to say so in its plat
form, and not put that duty on two
individuals IN each county as is the
case with the present Registration
law passed by a Democratic legisla-
ture.

McGREGOR-ISMS.

their paper apd their cause, should
read our advertising columns and
spend their money with merchants
who advertise in the PEOPLES PAR
TY PAPER.
A merchant that advertises in a
Democratic paper and does not ad-
vertise in Populist paper, says by
that act that he does not want your
trade, or that, he is political parti-
san of that stripe which prefer
bankruptcy to success.
Why should your 'rag-tag," "bob-
tall" "never- contributed. one-iota.to-
the prospa rlty- Of our city, fellows run
your legs off to trade with mer
chant who does not want you in his
store ?
You country boys have got the
whip in your hands that will end
such foolishness if you will apply it.
The merchant cannot eat his coun
ters, shelves and calicoes. You can
live and grow fat on what you pro-
duce. He can't, because he doesn't
produce anything.
When you visit your county town
Or the city to trade, look over the ad-
vertisementa in your Populist paper
and select the merchants who think
enough of you and his business to
ask your patronage. Spend your
money with them, and let them know
why you do so, and Cob bless your
honest souls you'll whip out the stiff
est partisan Democratic merchant in
the land before 1896 closes.
You are the boss of the merchant.
You can get along without him, if il
becomes necess ary to do so. He
can't travel long without you. If
the "Boss viii Pr has got to be ap
piled, the handle is in the working
mans hand.
Some few merchants imagine they
are more powerful than the men who
support them-the farmer, and the
laborer. A little independence and
backbone on the part of the farmer
and laborer, will soon knock out such
egotism or knock out the merchant.
The PEoPLE's PARTY papers can
suossit without the merchants aid,
but the merchant cannot exist in
Georgia without the trade of the
Populists. Whenever and wherev-
er the merchant attempts it, there
will be sign ''to rent or a sheriff's
sale follow the experiment.
If the Populists who trade in Ten
nile will accept L. Bashinski's invi-
tation and spend their spare money
with him, other merchants will profit
by his business sense and invite you
to call on them. Being the Oldest
merchant in his town, we feel proud
in having him see the ACCESSIBILITY of
soliciting our trade through our pa
per.
Business is business, and politics is
politics, but when the partisan mer-
chant surrenders the business wing
of his establishment to politics, we
can pluck the feathers out of his pro
polling apparatus and cause his bal
loon to collapse.
Some merchants are such political
towards that they allow the "men
who control" the Democratic ma
chine to control their business. The
merchantile undertaken will soon
visit them. It's only question of
time.
TIE Populists are largely in the
majority in Georgia, and they can
make their influence known and felt
in the merchantile field if they can't
get their ballots counted in the polit-
ical field. You can't keep down the
majority of the people ia a Republi-
can government. You may smother
their fires for awhile but they cannot

SO lmpOItaub d queStiOu. AHC edne
legislature passed the present Regis
tration law which is being used to
disfranchise thousands of Geor gians
especially the negro. Yet there
are negroes who, for pay, advise
their race to vote with the Democratic
party, and the negroes SO vote.
If any poor white or negro man
doubts the intention of the Demo-
cratic party to measure the right OF
the citizen by the dollar, let him COM
pare the bill introduced by the Pop
ulists in the last legislature to amend
the constitution SO as to enfranchise
taose now disfranchised by the con-
stitution of IT, with the Fleming
Registration law which was passed
by the Democrats.
Hamilton out the dollar above the
citizen; Jefferson put the citizen
above the dollar; the Democratic
legislature of Georgia adopted the
Hamiltonian theory when it passed
Jennings registration law.
The working of Fleming's Regis
tration law in the Tenth Congress
sional district has been a valuable
object lesson to thousands of citizens
who voted the Democratic ticket
heretofore but will vote it no more
hereafter.
Even the Augusta Democrat is
sick of Jennings Registration law.
The Democratic Registrars in the
Tenth Congressional district don't
want any more Fleming Registration
law Sin theirn." The ordinary De-
mocrat will stand pat and swear by
his party, when the steal is SO gem
orally dIffused that you can't indi-
vidualize the thief, but times are
getting too squally in Georgia for
any two members of thst decaying
organization to defy public indigna-
ton.
The public has been patiently wait
ing for the Augusta Herald to deny
that the election managers in Angus
ia changed Rev. W. W. Wadsworth's
ballot while he was looking at them
and refused to reotify it when re-
monstrated with.
1t is not because the editors age
afraid of the said W. W. W. Did
not Charley Bayne, one of its editors,
rise to question of personal prlvil-
eye in Mr.. Wa sworth's church on
former occasion +? | have heard he
did. In fact, l remember that
poem, or words to that effect, took
the place of the "man.le Of silence"
Bayne was the poemizer.
If Augusta remains in the Tenth
district-and we hope she long may
we country boys are going to
purify her politics or burst her biler /
So long as Richmond county is a
part of Georgia we are going to insist
upon her behaving herself politically,
or know the reason why.
On'y think of it! Over 5000
white men in Richmond county re-
fused to qualify in the election last
Wednesday. And Richmond county
is the homs of the Christian States
man and peerles gentleman, James
C. G. Black.
When political rottenness becomes
SO nauseating that 5000 white Rich
mond county Democrats refuse to
participate, how can a Christian
statesman afford to eat thereof?
Elem DuBignon didn't show up at
the Jim Black rally in Augusta last
week. Is everybody and everything
growing sick of Bo, kin Wright's
methods and Bill Jennings registra-
ton law? Looks that way.

The Celebrated Geyser Mineral Table
Water.


Water.
To great extent good health
depends on the water we drink,
and if one wants to be absolutely
safe a good natural mineral water
should be selected. There are
many mineral waters offered the
public, but how many of them
have any real merit3 The famous
naturally boiled Geyser Mineral
Water today takes the lead over
all others, and a good proof of
this fact is that it was granted
the Especial award" at the late
Midwinter Fair. This is the very
highest award, higher than the
first award, as it is only given for
special merit.
Geyser water is the only nat
urally boiled mineral water in the
world that is bottled; it is bottled
at the Geyser Springs, where it
bubbles from the earth at tenn
perature of 212 degrees, and is g
pure naturally distilled water,
What can be purer?
AS a table water it has no equal
is crisp and sparkling, delici-
Gus for lemonade and for mixing
with wines, fruit syrups, etc. 1t
is possessed of strong medicinal
qualities and is highly benefi-
cial for dyspepsia and all stomach
troubles, and being naturally
boiled, is of course free from all
germs of disease. Its Ingredients
are such that it acts pleasantly on
the bowels and is a perfect blood
purifier. it must not be con-
founded with Geyser soda, which
doesn't come from the GeyseIs
