HISTORY OF DEMOCRATIC RULE.
Tolbert, Texas, r. f. D. 2.

TOlbert, Texas, r. T. D. 2
The Memphis Weekly Commercial
Appeal Of Sept p, has a lengthy
editorial on "Shall the People Rule?
in which our notion is compared, in
that respect to the peoples rule in
Russia and Mexico. The editorial
closes with an appeal to the people to
support the Denver platform, saying
THE people can rule if they unite
in supporting the Denver platform
and the Democratic candidates. -
The history of the Democratic rule
is too fresh on the minds Of a very
large portion Of Texans to let the
Appeals appeal have any effect on
them. We have not vet forgotten
how completely Wall Street national
Bankers and the Sugar Trust ruled
the last Democratic administration.
We haven't yet forgotten that it was
a Democratic administration that
crowned the Republican efforts to put
this country on a gold basis.
We have long since learned that
Democratic platform promises are
made to get in on, and then for
gotten.
We still remember that the Dem
ocratic platform of 1884 declared:
"We believe in honest money. the
gold and silver coinage Of the Consti-
tuition and circulating medium con-
vertible into such money without
loss" and how the coinage of silver
was slaughtered to appease the wrath
of few Wall Street National Bank
Presidents.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1908-10-08

itself friend to silver, when it was
seeking office, the first time, since
1856, the people put their trust in it,
and gave it chance, it betrayed that
trust; and right on the heels of this
the Democratic National platform Of
1883 says "Upon its record thus
exhibited and upon the pledge of a
continuance to the people of the bene-
fits of good government, the National
Democracy invoke a renewal of popu-
lar trust by the reelection of Chief
Magistrate who is faithful able and
prudent. y Whom was he faithful to?
The Sugar Trust, National Bankers
and the Rothschilds' bond buyers.
When Mr.. Cleveland took charge Of
the Government s affairs in 1898, he
found the people in a prosperous con
dition. See his first message to the
53rd Congress. Yet the country
experienced one Of the worst panics
that year that we usually have to
contend with. During his last ad-
ministration, Mr. Cleveland did all he
could against silver coinage and the
then outstanding Greenbacks. But
still, he had the Endorsement of the
Democratic party as one "who is
faithful, able and prudent"
How much better recommendation
has Mr.. Bryan now? None How much
more can the common people expect
Of h N than they got from Mr.. Cleve-
land? None. Whom will Mr.. Bryan
serve if elected? The very same
class that Mr.. Cleveland served IF
the Trusts had any confidence in Mr.
Bryan's pretension to make it impos-
sible for them to exist in the United
States, do you, Mr. Reader, suppose
that they would be trying to elect
him?
The Commercial-Appeal speaks Of
Senator Foraker as "a Fallen
Angel." What could it say of it's own
dear Senator Bailey? [ would sug-
gest to the Appeal that it clean up its
own Democratic record before it
criticises that of some one else whose
record is no worse than that of it's
own.
If the people ever rule they will
have to do so through some party

Democratic, and multiplied thousands

Now Mr.. Editor, you know that it
is a generally conceded fact that the

chummy with Mr. Watson and us old

soon as Mr.. Watson left town you
betook yourself to your armory,
Editorial Sanctorum, and numbered
your biggest gun and forthwith pro-
ceeded to she'll the woods. Oh, what
a brave soldier you are! You try to
make it appear that because Watson
did not support Smith was the reason
Smith was defeated. But Smith said

very soon after his election that he
could have done equally as well-or
better-Without Watson s or the Pop

the last race:

You give Hole the half truth ev-

thing to do with Hoke's defeat,
and now, Mr. Editor, before I forget
it, I will give you some Of the
reasons why Joe Brown beat Hoke
Smith for Governor in this,
Brooks, county. The social equality
circular that was circulated by the
Hokeites, did the work, had it not
been for that dirty work Hoke would
have carried this county, and it is
generally conceded that it had its

political treachery You say it was
Mr.. Watson who took the back track
and not Hoke Smith You forget that
one hundred and ten thousand Geor-
gians said to the contrary. You for
get that the whole truth is against
YOU. You have forgotten that once
upon a time you were counting Popu-
list help to elevate YOU to the honored
place of representative Of this county,
and that a large per cent Of the Old
Pops supported you. This is the way
you are paying them for that much
needed help, is it? Please remember
that it is written, "He that sows to
the wind shall reap the whirlwind. -
It has been said Of old time. that
"wise men change their minds but
fools never do.' Then it stands to
reason that, if Clark Howell and
Editor Pendleton are now pulling
little Joe's gubernatorial ear like
yoke fellows with Tom Watson as
driver, they are the wise men. Now
where does that leave you? Hadn't
you better get wise? But I remem-
Der that you too, like you say about
Watson having a grievance against
Boykin Wright, have grievance
against Clark and Charlie, here they
are. Clark Howell showed Hoke
Smith up in his true light in the
memorable campaign of 1905-1906.
