The Southern Mercury says four
cent cotton and railroad compromises
are making more Populists than all
the other arguments of all the people.
The Peoples Party can only die when
the glorious word Liberty no3longer
thrills mems souls and the human
heart no longer beats responsive in
opposition to tyranny.-Advance Guard.
Why should people be poor when
there is plenty? And why should they
be idle when there is SO much to do +?
1t is about time these questions were
being thought out Denver Facts.
The banks are the only source from
which panic can be .created. II the
government ran the banks there would
be no panic, There is never such a
thing as panic in the postal system of
the ountry.-Girard World.
When will the people all see and
agree on an increase of the volume of
money? A little more experience with
5 cent cotton and poor trade will do it
perhaps Woodbury. Messenger.
Butler is sore on the Populist eye,
felon on the Populist finger, corn
on the Populist toe, counter balance
to Populist stability, and a you-hurt-
me-all-over on the Populist body
Cordele Herald.
Nothing but paper money issued by
the general government made a legal
tender for all debts public and private.
will bring prosperity to the people of
this country. More money is now the
demand of the hour -Girard World.
Most people can reason on almost
any question except religion and poll
tics Some think that these questions
should not be discussed further an to
admit that every body is honest both
in politics and religion. Texas indie
pendent.
Tens of thousands of Americas toll
ers will be led to believe that the re-
tirement of the greenbac will be q
blessing. The subsidized press will
soon begin it's campaign of education,
and just watch how the fools will take
up the cry of dangerous currency"
national honor" etc Advance Guard.
just as long as this nation holds to
metal money or to metal basis for
money, just so long the people will be
in debt-loaded with bonds and mort.
cages, and will be simply slaves to the
money lenders. Nothing but gov
eminent issue of full legal tender pa
per money will give us relief, The
(Mo) Quill.
Three states have fallen into line
this year with the plan adopted by
the Nashville conference and stand
for straight Populist principles. There'l
be no more sorrows from fusion in
Kentucky, Ohio, or Iowa. Other states
that desire to work with the Populist
party nationally will fall in line next
yeHr despite tne pleadinRs of Bryan Or
the bulldozing of Butler g. Co.-Girard
World.
Populism can only attract voters
from the ranks of the old parties by a
raight-forward, consistent fight for
princip es A skirmish for Office which
is always the motive in fusion deal
will never inspire the respect that is
necessary to build up reform party
If Populists will stand nrm in their
eight, reformers of all parties will rally
TO the support of their banner. but a
wavering, cowardly course will never
win respect. Chicago Record.
Verify we are fast drifting from the
mornings where we were left by our
forefathers, a free and Independent
people, to a money despotism But if
there are those who believe that we
will go there without oceans of blood
and the destruction of millions of dol
lars worth of property, they are sadly
mistaken, we believe. And to avert
just such con tingency has caused us
to devote the best years of our life.
Shall our work prove in vain? We
hope not. Alliance Plowboy.
Are you doing anything, my brother,
in the way of assisting your friends
and neighbors to understand correct
principles of reform A true reform
er should. never be idle; should never
give up the fight. He may sometimes
become little dis couraged when he
sees men who need reform; who need
change for the better, who will con-
tinue to vote against their own interest
and the interest of their country at
large, but this should not keep you
from doing your duty and all in your
power for the right and for the final
triumph of our principles Woodbury.

Is there Popu isl, living to-day who
vo1ed for Peter Cooper in 1876 that
isn't proud to say so? We get thou
sands of letters from the boys (God
bless them), who say we voted with
Peter Cooper and have been with the
movement ever since. and yet there
was just as much reason for saying
