How many voters are in your party
now?
You can't answer.
You miserable failure and fraud, you
must go back to the tables of 1892 and
1894 before you can even guess at the
Populist vote. You can't, to save your
worthless life, tell what the strength
Of your party Is today.
You are a nice fellow for chairman.

if it has to swallow much more medi-
cine Of the kind administered to 1t by
the Democratic politicians in the last
campaign, it's gone gosling. The Sue
cess Of Democratic candidates who are
gold bugs, of those who waive" the
silver question, would probably be fatal
to the silver question if it didn't have
more lives than a cat
The fact Of the business is that the
Democratic bosses have got about all
they wanted out Of the silver question.
They took hold Of it for the purpose
Of destroying the Peoples party with
it, and with Buffers help and Aliens
aid they have pretty well done it.
We look to see both wings of the
Democratic party come together, and
free silver the peace Offering decorating
the altar.
There's just one way to resurrect the
Peoples party: reorganize from the
ground up, and rigidly exclude from con-
troll every leader tainted with fusion
the people are all right, it's the corrupt
leadership which has hurt us.

Deafness Cannot he Cured

py local applications. as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the mu-
cous lining Of the Eustachian Tube When
this tube gets inflamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t Is
entirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh

Ed1tOr Representative:
The idea of nominating Wharton
Barker as the Populist candidate for
my appreciation. He lives in the wrong
section Of the union. Pennsylvania is
Republican province and will not get
out of the Republican column in 1900.
That we should nominate a man who
would be acceptable to fusionists as we'll

sition that has no force. The fusionis.s

that l have been reading your valuable
paper for many weeks without having
paid for it. l do not like to form any
excuses, but you know yourself that
farmers always have enough on their
hands, and this summer it has been
worse than ever, as we have had the ex-
ira work of being on the lookout for
that prosperity agent. We have been
disappointed in our expectations, be-
come forgetful of our duties as a con-

ers are Democrats in name. in policy,
in principle and in organization. As
Populists they absolutely have no sep
arate existence. The Democrats have
swallowed them "bodaceously."
So 1t is all around. A magnificent
party of 100000 men has disappeared
1t has been swallowed up as though TIL,
earth had opened and taken it in. Such
humiliation has not been known since
the earthquake Of Lisbon.
Will some Jealous Butlerite please
tell us what that eminent fraud has
done with the Peoples party? Has he
lost it; has he hid it; has he loaned it
out?
We trusted him with it; it was in
good condition when he took it. and
now we ask him:
What have you done with it?
You are the last one that had it. We
want you to account for it.
In 1892 and 1894 we could turn to The
official returns of the elections, and tell
to man how many Populists voted.
Can you do it now? How many Pop
ulists voted in Nebraska to give that
supreme court judgeship to Democrat?
You don't know, and nobody on earth
does know
How many Pops voted in Kansas?
You can't tell, and nobody else can.
How many Pops voted in Ohio, in
Kentucky, in Iowa, in Virginia?

We had a call yesterday from
Mr. Bragg Williams and Captain
Fernando, who are trying to or
ganize a base ball team here, for
the season Of 1897. They tell us
that Paris, Clarksville, Marshall,
Longview, Shreveport and other
towns near here, will have clubs in
the field and why not Texarkana?
They want the citizens here to dis
play some anxiety in the way of en-
conragement to form a club, and
put 1t in the field in 6rst-class
shape. Mr.. Fernandez is profess
sional ball tosser, and he thinks by
securing five professionals and then
make up the balance of the club
out of home material, he can put
as good a club in the field as there
will be in the circuit, We learn
from them that they have laid
their plans before several gentle-
men here, who are lovers of the ma
tional game, and that a concerted
action with these gentlemen will be
had, and learn whether or not the
citizens want base ball games dur
ing the coming summer. Let us
