fusal of the Democratic committee to
recognize us by placing Mr.. Watson's

how self-respecting Popoulis,s can
continue to support Mr.. Bryan, much
less to give their votes to Mr.. Sewall
The Constitution is just now very
sweet on the middle of the-road Pop
ulists, but it wont go down. The
Popuiists of Georgia have ceased to
heed or to believe any thing found
its columns. Indeed the political
editor of The Constitution has long
since ceased to believe what he SEES
in his own columns. The Populists
have been outrageously treated from
the very inception of fusion of the
silver forces in this campaign. This
Democratic position put into plain
language is practically this:-we, the
Democracy, will furnish the platform,
tae candidates and accept all the
Offices if you, Populists, will destroy
your own organization and furnish us
enough votes to elect our ticket Can
any self-respecting PopuIist aid the
Democratic ticket on such degrading
terms?
This fusion would have been bad
enough to swallow, if Mr. Bryan had
shown some little manllness in giving
proper recognition to NJ. Watson

There is no fusion in this part of
the political vineyard that will fuse.
The Populists are disgusted and
chagrined at the tricks and trades of
some of our would be leaders. We
will on the 3rd of November vote
for our congressman and then go
home. We are not yet slaves or
sheep, to be lead to slaughter in the
proposed manner. We claim to be
freemen ye5 for a season.
That recent Chicago conference
of our National Committee was an
other attempt at sell o1t, in my
opinion. They could have with
drawn Mr.. Watson from the disgrace
full race with more propriety than do
what they attempted, and such
course would have accomplished
greater results and left us our man
hood as well. That committee, be
it remembered by all Populist every
where, was at the st. Louis conven-
ton clothed with plenary powers.
The PopuIist here are disposed to
vote for Mckinley rather than Bryan
un Ter present circumstances. l tell
the boys we can't afford to act thus.
[ think there is more manhood not
to vote at all than to stultify myself
in such manner.
Thie, McDutiie county, Georgia, is
Mr.. Watson's home county. We
have tnown Mr. Watson from his
boyhood up. We have followed him
from She plowhandles to that of the
sage, and 9e are yet TO find him fol-
lowing after "lalsa G 1ds." We are
willing to honor him in every war,
bu not wiling to sacrifice him polt-
iosliy or otherwise
Onr advice to brother Populist is

Dear Sir and Brother-The fol-

public of the 18th inst.
"Tom Watson must yield or he
will not be considered"
The above words makes the heart
of every true Populist burn with iu-
dignstion, for we have trusted in
you all our hopes and to even think
of you varying from the stand you
have taken would be demoraliziDg to
every true Populist in America.
I know this expresses the sent
ment of every Populist III Vanzlpdt
county, and the chairman OF h 9
county will bear me up in this asser-
ton.
We have bowed at the feet OF tn
Democratic party, both State and
Nationally and they only ridicule US
the more. They sm9.e us on the
one side and we turned the other
only to receive harder blow. We
have acted the part of Christian
while they have acted the part of

Stand firm and denouuce fusion
with the Democratic party, for they
had rather kill the Populist party
than to gain free silver.

To Georgia Populists We aided
your ticket in the recent campaign
i. to the utmost of our ability. Now
that your national electors are with
drawn, we appeal to you to cast your
votes for the principle of Prohibition
"a p-inoi Die which has the cordial
support not only of your leader in
the state campaign, but also your
honored national leader, Mr. Watf on.
If anti-barroom legislation is good
for the state, it is good for the nation.
The Democratic party ever since
1876 has antagonizsd prohibition at
the djctation of the whiskey ring by
its famous anti-sumptuary plank,
and forced the issue into national
politics. The Republican party has
played for the liquor vote with a
double dealing declaration IN lts ma
tional platform. These two parties
have surrounded the liquor traffic by
their platforms as vita breastworks;
and if it cannot be dislodged from
its political defenses, it will continue
to wreak moral ruin, financial loss
and political corruption in the ma
ton.
Mr.. lowering is the first Southern
man nominated for the presidency
since 1860, aud we ought to meet
half way the patriotic northern Poo
hibitionists who have left their old
parties for the sake Of this principle.

Hon. Thomas d. Watson:
DEAR SIR-When in St, Louis |
had the pleasure of assisting in the
fight against the national banking
system as represented by Sewal and
the Democratic delegates to the con-
vention, which ended in your nomi-
naEion for the vice presidency. You
will find the position | held at the
convention by referring to the vote
of the California delegates. l am
still in that position, viz: mlddle-of-
the-road. When l returned to Oa
tsro | found our Peoples party club
had been bodily swallowed by the
Bryan Democratic club and TIA the
majority of our former Peoples party
club had no use for a m d de-of-road
Populist and that they, with the
Democrats, denied that there was
ever any agreement made between
mes, etc, at ST. Louis for the with
drawal OF Sewall and the ticket to
be headed by Bryan and Watson
So rabid are almosl all here for
fusion that anyone opposing it Is
spoken of with vitupsration, from
yourself to myself. also have failed
to hear any Of the Popocrstic speak
ers here at the public m 9etipg men
lion your name as a candidate for
vice president FL her they only
mentioned Bryan or Bryan and
Sewall, From the corrupt fusion
combinations here and elsewhere, |
am Satisfied that the Populists are
merely being used as a means Of re
habilitating the Democratic parry
AS their record is cns of treachory in
the past, treschery at St. Louis,
treachery here today, can we have
any faith in them in the future?
AS l look at it you have been used
as bait to deceive the Populist
voters and will certainly be sacrificed
for Sewall. Now while / would like
very much to have you elected,
see no possibility Of It's occur 3nce,
and SO from time TO tine it is pub,
lished here by the Democratic press
that you have resigned, | would take
the liberty as one who has your cause
at heart, to suggest that if you intend
to resign, that you withhold your
resignation until November ID, and
then telegraph it to the Populist ma
tional committee; thus depriving the
Democrats OF an opportunity to per.
suade voters to vote for Bryan and
Tga.l, SO those who are faithful to
Bryan and Watson will so vote, but
as you have Withdrawn the trickssers
will be unable to have your votes
counted for them. 1t will eioica my
heart to see the entire lot Of treaoh.
erous scoundrels who worked for the
betrayal of humanity at St. Louis fail
is reap the plumber they were after.
I know of several here who will
not vote any fusion ticket.
Kindly let me know if this mests
with your approval; if only with q
few words.
The above is fully concurred in by
one Of our most loyal Peoples party
men, DR.. E E. Wheeler.

said DIET the Populists 60 back to the
nlggers, where they belong" In
justice to Senator Jones, however,
| must say that l don't think he
would have made the remark If he
had ever heard of Mr.. Atkinson and
the Duncan circular.) Still it was a
brutal remark-one not to be ex-
planned away and Que that should
not be condoned. 1t would be bad
enough to ask Populists to set aside
tue patriotic, brainy and chivalrous
Tom Watson for Sc wall if the latter
represented anything or anybody but
himself. Sewall never had any bust
ness on the ticket and none know
that better than the Constitution and
the politicians who put him there and
who seem determined to keep him
there though they know he is dead
weight on the ticket.
He is not only a dead weight but
he stuljifes the platform and every
speech which Bryan and his support
era have delivered ducing the cam
psign He does not claim to stand
for but one idea in the platform and
il free silver is wrong, conclude
from 2 careful perussl of -ewail's
letter of acceptance aud the fact that
he makes obligations due himself
payable not in cure t money but in
gold, that Eir. Sewall has committed
the free silver crime In its mldest
forms.
Mr., Editor, l am not in sympathy
with the Republican platform. Six
months ago, 1 did not imagine She
contingency could ever arise that
would induce me to vote the Repub-
lican ticket. AT the approaching
election Georgia Populists have three
courses open 10 them, Taey can
choose between Sewall and McKinley
or they can stay at home. In my
opinion it is more manly to vote than
to sulk at home. If could vote for
Bryan without voting for Sewall l
would do SO, though Bryan hi s
treated our party and cur candidate
with sosnt courtesy, but l cannot vote
for Bryan without voting eor Sewall
and this | cannot and will not do. |
have little in co nmon with Mckinley,
but l can admire his genuine Amerl-
canism. With Sewajl | have nothing
in common. He stands for absolutely
nothing but his own sel6shness and
greed. Every Populist should re-
pudiate the ticket which carries his
name. A vote for Sc vail is vote
--~ ~
against Watson. A vote for McKin-
ley may prove to be vote for Wat
son, because it will lessen the number
of votes needed by Mr.. Watson to
give him the balance of power in the
electoral college. Our only way to
effectively strike back a. the men
who sought to degrade and humiliate
us is to give the vote OF Georgia to
Mckinley. We cannot do this by
sulking at home. We must go to the
polls and vote. D. n. SANDERS.

Firm as Gibralter.

The Commercial was the first
Democratic paper in the country to
announce for Mr.. Watson for vice
president.
Ii will be the last one to desert his
standard.
1t matters not how this position at
this time, may affect the political
well. being of the editor Of this paper.
He will be true to the pledge volun-
tarily made, ''that come veal or woe,
49, inshine or showers, no would
remain steadfast to the Watson stan
dard in this fight, and, under no CIR
custances would he desert that stan
dard, or vote for the man from
Maine"
Whether politicians applaud or
condemn our course, we are deter
mined to remain true to the position
then taken, and if defeat finally
comes, we will at least have the salts.
faction of having stood by our pledge
and to our deception of many revolt
against sectional hatred.
However much we may be crit,
cised, no man can truly say, that we
ever turned our hand on a friend in
the hour of defeat, or violated
pledge that could be fulfilled.
We believe that Tom Watson is
the worst trsated msn in America to
day. We believe that he is the vic
tim of base desertion by his own
party leaders, and an utter lack of
magnanimity al the hands of the
Democratic leaders of this State.
The Commercial still believes that
it was not only ungenerous but IN
wise to deny to Watson the empty
compliment of Georgia's full vote, in
return for the consideration shown
Mr.. Bryan by the Populists in Ne
braska, who allowed the full vote Of
that State to be cast for Sewall.
We still believe that a contract
was made with the Populists at St.
Louis by Chairman Jones, and that
this contract was violated.
We have not changed our origi~
nal position that Sewall is an enemy
of the South and against the Chi
csgo platform.
Believing this, we can't get our
consent to commit deliberate stulti
tication by voting for a man who
halls from a state that hates our
section, and who is running on
platform that he does not endorse.
We are for Bryan, and we believe
that he making crusade that will
take its place in history along with
hat of Pc or the her nit.
We are against Mckinley and all
that he represents.
If there is not another s1ch ballot
cast 10 Gsorgia, we intend to vote
for Bryan aud Watson electors.
We never desert our fig. We
would rather be right than success
