pose the Republican party at the South
and your political party is in complete
control of the Government, but you
can't get cents net for the crops that
you work IL months to produce.
Amt it about time for you to cut
loose from such a political party and
aid by your ballots to put the Peoples
Party-a party that is organized to lib
crate the industrial class from slavery
to freedom-in control of the govern

Get your friends together and notify
the chairman of the Peoples Party in
your county that you intend to vote
with him until his party gets control
of the government.
You and he are in the same cent
cotton boat; you work side by side, in
the same field, raise the same crops;
sell in the same market, get the same
kind of money, his interest is your in

Republican parties from power and in
stall a party in power that will keep

He begged for it.
He prayed for it. He sought it by le-
gitim&te and illegitimate means. He
appealed to their baser passions
through his infamous rape circular.
1t was ground hog case with him and
the Democratic party. They had to
get the negro vote or the Populists
would get control of the State. A me-
gro could get anything from Atkinson
and his Democratic friends-from a
pint of popskull whiskey to a certifi-
cate of good character and recommen-
dation for Federal appointment if he
would vote and work for the Demo
cratic ticket.
They played Cuffee for all he was
worth, and reckoned not of the NOR

But the morrow came, and with it
came q few sensible far. seeing negroes,

CONTROL" you know.)
Having been reared among Southern
gentlemen these sensible negroes natu-
rally believed that the Democratic
bosses who signed their recommends,
tons for Federal appointments were
gentlemen and men of their word, so
at the close of the campaign. when
Atkinson had been placed in the Gov
errors chair and Mckinley in the
Presidential seat, they put in their
application-with Democratic endorse
ments-for a few Federal appoint
ments.
Mckinley being an honest careful
magistrate, but unacquainted with
Southern sentiment and Georgia Dem
ocracy naturally gave great weight to
endorsements of character" written
before election day, and appointed one
of the applicants to an Office in the
country borough Of Hogansville, a town

If said negro is discharging the du

SHE is A BAD ANGEL.

SO far from proving that she was
the widow of the late Jay Gould and
coming in for some millions of the
property left behind by that genius Of
cumulative speculation, Mrs. Sarah
Ann Angel seems to have been quiet
ed by the testimony of a lawyer
whom she once employed. To this
lawyer Che so testified Mrs. Angel
confided the secret that she had never
known Gould, and further that she
had never seen him. If this be true,
then Mrs. Angel becomes the worst
of all the adventuresses who always
manage to turn up to claim matrimon-
ial relations with deceased millionair-
es. They never fail to crop out, and
some of them have been more or less
successful, but all of them have been
able to prove that they had speaking
acquaintance with the men to whose
fortunes they laid claim. Mrs. An
CELL will probably live to regret that
she ever saw a lawyer, and to repent
vigorously the unguarded moment in
which she confided to him the deep,
laid plot she had schemed in order to
seize upon a surplus million or two

people outside of the service have
but an imperfect idea of what it costs
an officer to keep up his stock of reg
imentals or uniforms" observed an
army officer of Fort Sam Houston, to
a Light reporter. ''There is an idea
in many sections that the government
pays for the uniforms of officers, as
it does for soldiers and sailors, but
officers know to the contrary, to their
cost. Recently 1 made an inventory
of my traps in the way of uniforms,
hats, saShes, etc, and | found that
it stood me, including my sword, at
between 500 and $500, and 1 am by
no means eXtravagant, or as well pro-
vided for in this regard as many 9th
ers above and below me in rank. For
my dress trousers, including the gold
stripe, paid the last few weeks 500,
and l know other officers who have
paid even more for theirs. Army and
naval officers make no complaint
against the officers of the various mill
tia organizations so closely copying
their uniforms, but they seriously OBJ
ject to officers of non-military bodies
copying the same. Strangely enough
there is no law which prevents this
copying. and if one of the beer
drinking clubs of Cincinnati,
Chicago or any other city should adopt
the uniforms of the admirals of our
navy or our generals, there is no law
to prohibit it. There are several or,
CARNATIONS of this kind, and the ten.
dency of them is to lower the dignity
of the service, at least inthe eyes of
outsiders. Things are managed diff.
ferently abroad. Only recently, at a
yacht race in Cowes, England, the Off,
GERS Of the yacht club in some partic,
ulars closely copied the uniforms worn
by the officers of the royal navy. The
attention of the British naval officials
was called to it, and there was 4 stOr
put to it instanter. Should such q
thing be done in this country it would
raise howl from one end of the land
