VIM J. Bryan has at last accepted

is elected it will be due solely to
Populist support, for without it his
strength would be wholly inadequate
for successful contest with the Rs
publicsns and goldbug Democrats.
With the most prominent and the
richest men of his party fighting Bit

Mr.. Bryan is too we'll convinced
of the truthfulness of the adage that
ga house divided against itself can
not stand" to believe thai he could
win without the strong aid of the
Populists of the South and West,
and he will find thst his acceptance
must be strengthened by Sswall's
retirement before that help will be
given him.
Our battle cry ip, "No Watson, no
Bryan" and thousands of our people
have already prepared their tackle
and dug a gourd of bait for use on
election day in the event of Sswall
remaining in the race.

Wants Watson and Victory.

Usually what W. D. Jelks, of the
Eufaula Times and News, has to say
on matters political meets with the
approval Of most Of the Democratic
editorial brethren of the State and
they copy literally from the columns
of his newspaper, but now that he
weekly advocates the substitution of
the name of Watson on the national
Democratic ticket instead of that of
Sewall his views are not so extensively
reprinted by them. Editor jerks is
honestly opposed to the election of
Mckinley and therefore favors the
proper oouraa 70 secure hia defeat
In last weeks issue he says:

who can vote for Bryan and the

it would secure a vast number of
Popuists, who will not other wise

The Election.

We print elsewhere in this paper
the estimate given by the Atlanta
Constitution of the result of yester-
days election.
Reports received al Populist Head
quarters up to this hour indicate that
the estimate was stretched all it
could stand.
The following thirteen counties
have wired Chairman Cunningham
the following results:
Loss on estimates given by the
Constitution Cobb, POI; Taylor,
80; Monroe, 200; Hart, 400; Glass
cock, 4; Clarke %; Ebert, 800; Ter
rell, same; MoDuffie, 81; Fulton, 178;
Berrien, 1876; sumpter, 200; Brooks,
gain of III.
This shows a net loss on the
thirteen counties Of some 1,700
votes. If the returns continue to
show this loss, the Democrats will
not have the majority they had in
1894.
Atkinson is running behind his
ticket. The negroes voted for him,
but the white men could not. He
ran about 1000 behind in Fulton.
Reports indicate that as outrageous
frauds have been committed in this
cleo ion as in any of its predecessors.
C,unties report bogus registration
list sent into Populists precinct, par
ties voting who had not registered.
1t is safe to say the Populist PAR
ty has made the best fight Of its ex
istence in this state. When a com,
parison in made o. the majority by
which the couny offices were lost
in January Of 1894, and he fight of
yesterday. No one should feel dis
couraged. It is safe to say that the
Popuhst hold more Offices in the
state today than over before.
Some twenty members of the leg.
islsture are conceded and four or five
Senators.
Many county offices have been
captured. Our representation in the
general assembly, when all reports
are in, will not fall very much be-
low 1894. Now for the November

The great and mighty Kolb whose

Ignorant or Vicious?

The Atlanta Constitution is a
bright ne vsy paper, ably edited, and
h wide circulation, and yet it
fails to present the real facts to its
readers on the political situation.
The Constitution was Democratic
paper in 1892, and supported Grover
Cleveland for president knowing that
ne opposed the free coinage of silver,
and went SO far as to promise un-
limited prosperity to the toilipg mil
lions if he was elected and the Demo.
cratic party placed in power. Now
the Constitution stands opposed to
CleVeland's administration of the
government, and claims the self
same principles advocated by the
Peoples party four years ago.
Whatever else that paper may claim
it cannot claim to be the originator
of those reform principles it now ad-
vooates; Capt. Kidd coald as rea.
sonably claim to have discovered
America. But the point We desire
to reach is this: Either the Constitu-
ton was in error four years ago, and
the Populists were right, or they are
all wrong now. Ii the Populists
were right then, they are entitled to
decent treatment at the hands of the
Bryan Democrats,if they we're wrong,
the Constitution should get off their
platform, and not endaavor to lead
its many readers into error.
If the populists have held the true
faith under the adverse criticism of
tina. and all other Democratic papers,
and preserved the true Jeffersonian
doctrine indebted, they certainly
deserved better treatment than is &C.
corded them by the recent converts
like the Constitution.
Tom Watson was battling for these
principles when the Constitution was
booming the cause of the plutoorats
and fighting him, now it wants Tom
to sit down and cover his head with
sack cloth and let the party that has
brought out the contest go to pieces
on the shoals of uncertain democracy.

The Heather Rage.

In its attempt to justify the meth.
DDS by which Richmond county reg
listers as many negro voters as the
counties of Fulton, Chatham and
BIB combined, the Herald says it is
an attempt ''to deliberately dsfame
and traduce the the community and
people" to attempt to have fraudu.
lent names expunged from the list.
And our dear neighbor points to the
Woods case to show how unfounded
the charges of illegal registration
which, it says, "wouldn't convict a
yellow dog in a magistratis court"
We do not know what sort of evi
dence would be required to convict
"yellow dog in a magistratis COURT
but from the statement of our con.
temporary it would appear that the
yellow dog would have little cause
to fear conviction in such a court
with any evidence. In the Woods
case it will be remembered, list of
names was handed in of persons
claimed to be fraudulently register
ed. In eight of these cases wit.
nesses were summoned, and in only
three of these witnesses appeared.
The proof of fraud was clear and
the names were struck. The other
five were allowed 10 remain on the
list.
1t was then that Woods was asked
If the list was his, and he said it was
not, and he was asked to sign state
ment to that affect, Withdrawing the
challenges. Now outside of the
magistrates court where he yellow
cog mentioned was On trial, it would
be presumed that where every case
on a list in which the witnesses were
examined was fraudulent without a
doubt, the mere fact that the origi
nal list had been transcribed would
be no reason to doubt the correctness
of the charges of fraud in regard to
the other fifty odd names.
After the board of Registrars had
dismissed the charges preferred by
Mr.. Woods because he stated that
he did not write the lis, DR.. Potts
who copied the list, together with
DR.. McInnis, one of the Demo-
era ic registrars, compared the copy
with the original affidavit, aud it was
found to be correc'. 1t is upon suca
hlmsy pretexts that evidence Of
fraud is ruled out, and the votes of
the best citizen, are killed with bal
lots fraudulently registered.
To refuse to let the people see who
are registered as quail fed voters, in
the face Of well su ostantiated charges
Of fraud, does almost as much to
defame the city as the constant howl
ing denunciation of men who ask
only an honest regis ration and a fair
lection.-Tribune.

No Watson, no Bryan.

1t would be q thousand times bet
ter for the people for Mr.. Watson
and the anti fusionists to be defea ed
than for the Democratic standard of
Bryan to go down before the gold
standard OF the Hanna. Mckinley
syndicate. If we are TO judge from
contribution which Mr.. Wasson made
to one of the leading gold organs OF
the country, he fails not only to ap-
probate the importance of the Issues
at stake, but to understand and ao
preciate the desires Of the people
We make this prediction: Ii
Bryan is defeated through the manip
ulation of those who pretend to be
anxious for the safety OF the Popu
list organization, the men who are
responsible for it will never hold up
their heads in the politics Of this
country again. We commend to
Mr.. Watson the patrio ic example OF
Captain Reuben +. Kolb.-AtlantA
Constitution.
Yes, Mr.. Watson and the Populists
must furnish all the patriotism. Mr..
Sewall and the Democrats will go in
for the pie. Mr.. Bryan may be de.
feated. The West will have plenty
of congressman to rally around to
preserve the party. North Carolina
will have some. How will they get
them? We are all going to live
even if Mckinley is elected.
The Populist party will have to
fight for free silver as well as thu
other reforms for which it stands.
Our state convention provided for
withdrawal Of part OF our electors
No effort has been made by the
Democrats Of tn $ state to consoli-
date. If Mr.. Sewsll on account OF
state pride, could pull down gold
ticket for Governor in Maine and
put up a silver ticke', the Democ-
raoy of Georgia c an surely take down
Bryan and Sewall ticket and &C.
cept Bryan and Watson ticket.
We might stand som, things, but
we will not stand Reab=n E Koln
of Alabama held u as an example.
We say to the Atlanta Constitu-
ton that Mr.. Watson will stay il
the fight, and we ask them if they
invite US to take down our electors
in G torgia?
Now let's 90 in for a little practi-
cal politics. We can elect every con
gressman we have in the field, and
a set of electors that will vote for
Tom Watson for Vice President.
We have been at the feet of the
Democrats long enough.
We have shown our willingness to
meet them half way. They scorn
US in this state as in other Southern
st,tes. Sure when 9th II states are
saying ono Watson, 10 Bryan"
Georgia, the homo of Tom Watson,
can say it. Wa cannot manage
