5 FUSION And "CONFUsIoN..

There seems to be some eommo-
ton among the Democratic papers
over the fusion question. Much is
being said about q possible fusion OF
Populists and Democrats. All that il
said, however. appears in Democrat
ic papers. They started the talk
no one knows for what purpose. Ii
there is any talk among the Popu-
lists looking to such . measure a.
this, the Caucasian does not know
it. Certainly there is no such talk
among the members of the State
committee, and though there is fire.

The Louisville Post, . Democratic

The CAUCASIAN has received quite
. number Of letters asking an opin-
ion - to the call for . free silver
convention. Ills convention seems
to be called in good faith, and il
would seen that all those Who favor
the free coinage of silver should st-
tend. The gold povur has grown %
strong in this country that it cannot
be defeated unless the patriots Of al
parties join in one solid phalanx to
fight it. We ought to and must e,
together. and We cannot get together
by staying apart.
The Caucasian. (Clinton, N.C.) 188?-1913, 1895-09-12

We have . quiet notion to the ef-
feet that the general information in
this issue Of the Caucasian will chill
the marrow of some of these Demo-
cratic papers who have been think
ing they were going to redeem"
the State. We do not believe that
there are three of those papers In
North Carolina combined that could
get eight thousand people to sub
scribe in three weeks, even if they
offered their papers free Of charge.

is pulled in" This the way Tom
Watson puts it and he is right.

WHY CAPT. MCMAHON LEAVES THE
DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

Since the birth of the Peoples Party
it has never grown faster than now.
Every day our exchanges from near
ly every State in the Union contain
the card of some prominent Demo-
crat who gives his reasons for quit
ing the old monopoly ridden ma
chine called the Democratic party. -
We have now before us a Texas
paper containing a card from Capt.
j. D. Mcmahon, a prominent Demo-
crat of Bolton, Texas, In closing he
says:
II have lost all hope of getting free silve,
and financial reform through the Demo
cratic party. Ny party promised to repeal
the ruinous Republican financial policy,
but when it got Q chance to do something
for the people, 1t endorsed all the infamY
OF John sherman and did even worse than
the Republican party had done. Ny party
has forfeited the respect of all men who
think that party pledges should be kept. Il
| will disintegrate and go to pieces because
the people have lost confidence in it. There
fort leave tit is my party no longer.
oeheve we must have change IN our f.
nancial policy or this government will per.
the only party that stands fol the princi
Piles of Jefferson and Jackson IF prosperity
IS ever restored in this country It must b
done through it or some other party"
Every day thousands of Democrats
in, this country are reaching tn,
same conclusions.
The Caucasian. (Clinton, N.C.) 188?-1913, 1895-09-12

Next to lying about the people
and trying to abuse them, the most
prominent feature of the Democratic
press is an appeal to Democrats to
drop the silver question and every
thing else, and yet get together on
party lines. They ought first to find
their lines.
The Caucasian. (Clinton, N.C.) 188?-1913, 1895-09-12

Mr. S. B. Alexander is reported to
have refused to sign the call 70. 4
State silver convention because the
call did not exclude everybody but
partisan Democrats. Ye Gods,
think Of it! Mr.. Alexander cannot
attend q silver convention to where
silver men of all parties win be
present, for fear that his Democracy
would be tainted thereby! Does
Mr.. Alexander any longer want the
free coinage of silver, or has his
views on this question changed, as
on the railroad question: We we're

Mr.. Jarvis Is reported correctly, for
this is q very patriotic utterance
at this time. To live up to this Mt
terance will be patriotic act. We

LET 1T BE 10000 THEN,

On August 18th we made a special
proposition to send the CAUCASIAN
three months for ten cents, in clubs
OF ten. to new subscribers only, and
suggested to our friends that we
might get ten thousand names. The
result has shown that we have
friends-friends to the paper and
friends to the Reform Movement.
They have sent in nearly eight thou
sand new subscribers, and the sug-
gested number of ten thousand will
be reached by the 18th, ut which
time the offer expires under the first
proposition.
Here is fact which shows that
the people have faith in their prin-
ciples. 1t shows that there is indie
structible life in the Omaha plat
form and the Peoples Party. It
shows that the masses are looking
with hope to the Peoples Party,
and to that party only, for the correc-
ton of public abuses and the honest
regulation of public affairs. The
work of sending in these subscribers
has been voluntary. The paper
simply made an offer in keeping with
the condition Of the times. The peo-
pie wanted the paper, and when it
was put within reach they took it
eagerly.
The names of those who interested
themselves in forwarding clubs show
that this movement is supported and
carried forward by men of the no
blest character aud grandest stamina
in the State; men who stand for the
right because right is JUSTICE; men
who are neither in the public eye no,
want TO be, but who do want RICH,
to prevail, and who are willing to
work that it may prevail. Can a
movement backed by such a force,
earnestness and determination a,
this faili Never! No mortal com
bination of power can ever resist it.
1t will go on, and woe to them who
get in its way! They will be crushed
to pulp and ground to powder.

door-those who elected. Senators.
