ITS RECORD FORBIDS.

"2. The silver miners and those inter-

Don't Want a Better Fight.

GadSden T1meS-NeWS.
A. T. GOODWIN, republican nominee for
governor, has written a letter to Captain
Johnston, democratic nominee for the
same office, asking the captain to join
him In discussing the issues of the day
before the people of the state. The let
ter also asks that the captain join Good
wyn in petition to the appointing boards
asking that the two contending parties
be allowed representation among the
election inspectors all over the state. The
law provides. for the appointments, and
any interference would be impertinence
1t would suggest that Captain Johnston
believed himself that the appointing
power was held by a gang of common
thieves. GOODWIN insults the honor and
integrity of the white people of Alabama
when he assails the election inspectors
that have heretofore conducted elections.
The democracy of this state would not
want better fight to make than the one
now on hand with Goodwin, the leader of
the opposition, in mood to.make unjust
attacks on white people.

Living Truths Sad, Sad Confession.
Opeika News.
The news from Butler county is that
the populites are badly split up.
One of the leading populites of the
county now comedies that 1t would come
with bad grace from them to charge fraud
to democrats when their primaries have
been conducted in such manner as to
cause majority of their executive COM
mittee to set aside the election on account
of frauds and Irregularities, and that
without even attempting to count the
votes cast.
The populites should come back into the
democratic party, which is the only party
that can perpetuate white supremacy and
save the state from republican misrule.
The Living Truth says: I'VE thought
at one time of publishing the results of
the primary from the various beats, but
they were so full of errors, Irregularities
and frauds that finally we decided that
no good would be accomplished by it's
publication"
The Living Truth is a populite paper.

The Sugar Can't Go Around.


Montgomery Journal.
The poor populists of Alabama are in
deed in a bad way. They cannot stand
prosperity. There are bolts, dissatisfac-
ton, charges of ring rule in county con-
ventions, false counting in beat prima-
ries and Independent tickets in nearly
every county where the populists OBJ
tanned possession of the local offices in
1892. Now that these fat county offices
are to be refilled at the August election,
"there are hundreds of the boys in the
trenches who want to take sugar in
thern." Unfortunately, there is not
enough sugar to go around.
Yes, populism in Alabama is fast pc
tering out, and this is probably its last
campaign here under that name. OF
them it can be truly said:
iii fares the party in fastening ills a
prey,
When candidates accumulate and voters
bolt away"
This is peculiarly the case in Butler
county, where Judge CASTOR, one of the
ablest Of the third party leaders, was
elected probate judge in 1892. On Tues
day last the populist county executive
committee met in Greenville to canvass
and count the returns from the beats and
officially declare who were the party
nominees for county officers. They sat
and cussed and discussed the charges of
gross fraud made by certain candidates
and their friends, and finally burnt all
the ballot boxes, returns ETC., in disgust.
After this minority of six members Of
fieially declared certain men the regular
populist nominees while the majority
decided to repudiate the whole thing as
being rotten with fraud, and called an
other nominating primary to be held
May 81.
Verify 1t is astonishing that party so
young, and whose excuse for existence
was its antagonism to alleged frauds in
the democratic party, should so soon
have become corrupt, demoralized and
disintegrated. But the Journal has no
tears to shed.

That letter which Mr.. Goodwin sent to
Captain Johnston, which we republish, is
one of a kind not frequently seen or read
or heard of. 1t was most indecent per-
Torrance of Mr.. Goodwin, and may have
been dictated by either of two influences.
Either Mr.. Goodwin wrote it so that Mr..
Johnston would refuse to consider or an
swer it, or else because he did not know
how to be polite or decent. 1t may have
been ignorance on his part. But in the
estimation of any man of any decent feel
ing it was an outrageous insult. We can
not very well see how Captain Johnston
can afford to address Mr.. Goodwin either
personally or by letter. 1t would seem
that the challenge would raise a personal
barrier between them.

The vote in the senate Monday on the
Allen Alabama resolution is calculated to
put quietus on would-be Senator War
rem Reese of Montgomery. BY a vote of
Al to 6 the senate has virtually disposed
of the Reese contest for Senator Morgan's
seat in the senate. In view of the fact
that would-be Senator Reese announced
at the Montgomery pop convention that
the pops in Alabama could not afford to
have the republicans turn the back Of
their hands upon them, the following re-
marks by Senator Allen in the senate
day before yesterday are of interest:
Mr.. Allen, commenting on the vote,
said that it disclosed what he had always
been convinced of, that there was no
sincerity on the republican side of the
chamber Outside OF Mr.. Chandler and a
few other senators) in favor of investi-
cation into the affairs in Alabama He
had been convinced that when it came to
show down a majority of the republi-
cans would join with the democrats in de-
feating the resolution.
