as the second Zeb Vance of North Caro-

it was said by many after the speaking
was over, that the speaker had fully
sustained the reputation that had
preceded him.
There were voters from every corner

Tom Watson's Campaign.

DALLIs, TEX, September THE
Hon. Thos. f. Watson, of Georgia,
Populist candidate for Vice President,
to-day addressed about five thousand
persons at the State fair ground The
occasion was Labor Day celebration,
but Mr.. Watson seemed to have for
gotten this as he said nothing concern
ing labor but devoted his speech to
Populist doctrines almost exclusively.
Mr.. Watson was especially severe in
his denunciation of the Democratic
party but said practically nothing
against the Republicans. He lampoon-
ed the Hon. Artur Sewell, Democratic
nominee for Vice President, characteriz-
ing him as the incarnation ofall that is
venal In politics and as the prominent
Republican representative of mono
poles and the money power. He de-
clared that Sewall went to the Chicago
Convention not only as u national
banker, but as gold bug at heart,
and was at that time person.
ally supporting gold standard Demo-
crat for the Governorship of Maine.
Mr.. Watson declared that he was
in th is fight 70 finish, an d
that he will not retire from the race for
Vice President in Mr. Sewalls favor.
That if Bryan is defeated, Sewall will
be to blame and that if Bryan wins, it
must be because Watson wins also. $50
long as Tom Watson lives the Populist
party shall not die" was one of Mr..
Watson's emphatic declarations.
The speaker reviewed the course of
political events since the Democracy
came into national power aud could
discover nothing good in the record
He lashed the railroads for attempting
to coerce employees into joining sound
money" clubs. He spoke in compli-
mentary terms of Mr.. Bryan, saying
that no railroad or other monopoly or
corporation had ever controlled or can
control him, but that the same could be
said of Tom Watson,
Before the meeting parade of labor
organizations was had through the city.
During Mr.. Watson's speaking the
crowd continued attentive. But there
was only moderate appluse. Many
leading Populist politicians occupied
places on the platform and, of course,
were the most demonstrative in the
cheering and other evidences of salts
| faction.
MIR, Watson spoke for more than an
hour. At the conclusion of his address,
President George N. Beach. of the
State labor organizations, announced
the programme for the afternoon, and
the meeting adjourned until p. m.
Mr.. Watson is accompanied by State
Committeeman Reed, Of Brunswick,
Ca, member of the Populist National

receivedabout $4,000, leaving majority
of about $4,000 for the Democratic
