Peoples Party Paper; If Mr.. Bryan IS
ashamed Of the votes which are necessary
to elect him we ought to know ii. He
cannot carry his own state without our
help, and If he is ashamed OF our help, he
is not the man our people have taken him
to be. Let US have no dodging. Let the
committee do its duty and notify Mr..
Bryan. Il is humiliating, both 10 the
party and 10 its other nominee, Mr.. Wat
son, to let the campaign go on in this
unheard-Of manner.

agogue. He is trying to arouse the preju-
dices Of the old soldiers against Atkinson
because he won the nomination over Gen.
Evans two years ago. Seaib Wright ought
to have the fairness to tell his audiences
that Gen. Evans is for Gov Atkinson and
will make speeches for him. Seab Wright
has no love for the old confederate sol
der. He voted and stumped the district
for DR.. FELTON, against George n. Lester,
the one-armed hero. showing conclusively
that he is talking now for office. He that
lives in a glass house should not throw
stones.
Carroll county congratulates herself on
the nomination Of W. C. Adamson for
congress, as a recognition of a long
standing claim. The Free Press says;
There has been considerable complaint in
Carroll county, for a number of years
past llldl bll6 county was Iol plOpGAAg
recognized in the distribution of the Of
fees of this congressional district. IL
was claimed, that this was the banner
democratic county Of the district, and in
former years this was a just claim, and
for that reason being a large county. VITA
a large white population, she was enti-
tied to the congressman.
Meldrim Guidon: A word to the voters
of Bryan county.-The Citizens Club Of
Savannah, which seeks to override the
will of Bryan county as expressed by the
recommendation of her grand jury, is en-
deavoring by the use of money to control
the nomination for representative. That
organization recognizes the fact that it
has lost Chatham. There is no certainty
that one of its nominees, Mr.. Tiedeman,
will support Mr.. Osborne for solicitor
general, in fact Mr.. Tiedeman cannot
we'll do so, for the would-be solicitor was
opposed to the nomination of Mr.. Iiede-
man and so declared himself at the sena-
torial convention. Under the sham that
Mr. Tiedeman is for sound currency 1t is
proposed to drop his name from the tick
ct No sane man supposes that Goldman,
Sheftall, Osborne, Willink, ct al, know
anything about sound currency, or care
anything about it, what they want Is
man to do their bidding, and hence they
turn to Bryan county to make good the
deficit If they knew how strong in in
tegrity were men like Capt. Haskell, Mr.
Geiger, Capt. Morrison, Mr.. Moore and
hundreds we could name, they would
abandon the attempt to buy a represen-
tative The people of Bryan will not
fail to require that their representative
shall recognize that he is their servant
to carry out their wishes and not to be
a tool in the hands of lot of Chatham
county politicians.
