PEOPLES PARTY PAPER ATLANTA, GA. AUGUST III 1906

All it needs now is the same fearless
courage we have always shown.
Our speakers and editors can be fully
employed. Our literature will be in
demand. Our papers can be more
widely circulated, and we can gain
millions to our way of thinking.
If Mr.. Bryan should not win it
will disband all his supporters, and
we can win them to our cause. ALI
the money of the world is arrayed
against him, and we should not falter
or faint.
We have, in Senator Marion But
Ter, gallant leader who stood BY
us in the fight. He will guard our
homer saeredly. He will maintain
our organization at all hazards. He
is able and capable, and the peer OF
any man opposed to him. He will
stand by Tom Watson, though the
world assail him. We can trust him
and should hold up his hands, cheer
and stand by Kim to man. We
should erganizs the Legion every
where. We must do it to maintain
our faith.
Take in every man and woman
who support Bryan and Watson, and
educate them on our platform, and
treat them with confidence and re.
spsos.
Let us deal honorably with all
men. If we give a pledge let us
keep it, We have lost NO man We
cannot afford to lese. Camp fellow
ers have deserted US for the spoils Of
the enemy's camp, but we will close
up our lines and march on and YET
win the victory.
We will never win until we de.
serve it, and as long as We "sigh fol-
the flesh pots of Egypt" and seeh
the Establishment of office we will
not win.
May God give US courage to hoist
cur unsullied banner high, and tt
unite like band of brothers deter
mined to win the battle for liberty
and save our oppressed people, i
we all die in our tracks. We are
not defeated, and we must remember
that it takes a lifetime to win tig4'
fer humanity, and we should never
give up. The unoonquerable spiri
shown by the gallant heroes Of thu
South, where the hope Of the PEG
pies Party rests, must inspire all oul
hearts. If we will band together
Ike these invinoib.o men and womei
We c2u not be driven to 0he wall.
In the name of all our struggles
oar heroic fights, the miles we have
travelled, tho speeches we have made
the marches wo have taken in the
dust and mud; the lives we have los
battling for an honest count; the
vows we have taken, the deeds o.
glory we have put in history, let III
stand together and march ON to the
GRO wning day of the dawning cen
fury. PAUL VAN DERvooET,
President National Reform Press

Democratic party it is the South.
Patiently and humbly has she fol-
lowed the lead of the North and
East. They have grown to consider
it as matter of course, and are dis
posed to frown down any suggestion
OF the South's advancement. We
have stood it with noble patience.
But there are limits to all things.
The West they honor with the high
est office, but they not so much as
throw the crumb of second place to
the South. With what loathing con-
tempt they treat the true Democracy
Of the South! No wonder third
party has sprung up in our midst.
They are the same people who have
made Democracy great. They have
had the manhood to throw off the
yoke of Eastern bossism. They are
fighting for the true interests of the
South and the union. They are
making themselves heard and felt in
this country. They are demanding
their rights at the hands OF the bal
ance of the union, and their demands
are not only respected, but taey are
being complied with. They are
assuming leadership in national affairs
To this party I look to champion our
rights and revenge onr wrongs. Her

that the affair had not been Cancelled, but
merely postponed; that the tickets were
still good, and that he had no authority to
return any portion of the cash that had
been received.
Later in the day Wheelock stated to The
United Press that if the fight was officially
declared off all money received for tickets
would be paid back, but that if there were
repeated postponements the tickets al
ready sold would hold good until the two
men were got together, whether it be in a
week or six months hence.

DEEP MYSTERY,
Peculiar Crime of a Lover
in a Suburban
Home.

And Her Mother and Sent
Bullet Through His Own
Brain.
NO MOTIVE FOR THE DEEDS.
Efforts TO Bring the Girl Back TO
Consciousness Were Made
in Vain.

CENTERVILLE, Iowa, Feb. 14.-Mrs.
w. J. Martin and her daughter, Lea Mar
tin, aged %, were killed at their home in
the suburbs of this town at 8 o'clock this
evening by George Jones, who afterward
killed himself There is mystery sur
rounding the affair. Jones has been for
long time lover of the girl. Both are of
good families, and there was no reason
for the belief that there had been trouble.
This evening Jones went out to the home
of the Martins andewas last seen as he left
the streetcar. Half an hour later the
tragedy occurred. There was nobody in
the house when Jones went there but the
girl and her mother. The five shots that
were fired called in the neighbors, who
found Mrs. Martin and her daughter on
the floor of the parlor.
Mrs. Martin was dead and Lea dying.
The girl had bullet-hole in her neck and
shot in the forehead and also in the
breast, and bad been killed instantly by
the shot in the head.
Jones appears TO have gone to the house
and after shooting the two women went
outside, crossed the street and shot him
self before the neighbors came. He has a
bullet from his 38-caliber revolver in his
brain and had died instantly. When he
was found his heart had hardly ceased
beating.
Lea is still alive, but losing strength fast
and cannot possibly live. Every effort
has been made to bring her back to con-
seriousness, so that she might tell some
thing of the tragedy, but it will avail
nothing.
w. j. Martin, the husband and father,
is doctor and Coroner OF APP
pannooz County. He had no family
except the daughter and wife, and was
away from home when the tragedy oc-
CURED. He is prostrated by the shock and
very sick, although not in danger.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 14.-The
President to-day sent to the Senate re-
port required by resolution of January
Z. introduced by Mitchell of Oregon, asking
him in the usual form to transmit to the
Senate copy OF the report and accom-
panying documents OF special agent
Of the United States sent to the Fiji ISL

Henry of Oregon and other Americans for
compensations for lands alleged to have
been owned by them in said islands and
claimed to have been appropriated by the
British Government.
In complying in part with the request
of the Senate by transmitting the report
(which has no particular public interest)
the President, through Secretary Olney,
takes occasion to adm mister q rebuke to
Congress for these indiscriminate calls.
He refers to the fact that to comply with
the Senate resolution would involve the
copying of ILL foolscap pages of written
matter and 163 pages OF printed matter. 1t
is obvious that months must elapse before

ALBANY, N. Y, Feb. 14.-One of the
most notable events at the Executive Man
sion in years was the dinner of Governor

present his name for the place.

However complete the two cases may be
found, it is still likely that experts sent
abroad by the commission may be able to

some of the members to visit Europe has
not been abandoned.
