To my Friends in Washington
County, Florida:

my friends to make some expla-
nation as to why such change
was made.
Several years ago when the
Farmers Alliance was organized
in Washington county, Florida,
/ became a member of that or
ganization. did so because ]
thought it was good thing, and
/ thought that it would be of mu-
tual benefit to the farmers of our
country to unite their forces and
influence and exert their powers
in one united effort to bring re-
lief to their distressful condition
OF those days. AS l understood
the objects of the organization as
then declared no honest and fair
minded man could have said 9th
erwise than that they we're good.
And / am yet of the opinion that
had not these fundamental OBJ
jects and early declared purpos-
es of the organization been drop
ped and political ambition sub
stituted therefor, that great good
would have come to the men of
toll because of the organization.
When the Farmers Alliance for
sock it's original principles, de-
serted it's noble purposes, and
launched out into the sea of pol
itics under the name of the Pop
ulist party, / continued to be
numbered among it's members.
believed in reform and was a
stickler for the old Democratic
principles. AT that time l
thought that within few years
our party would sweep the en-
tire country and every reform
demanded by the people would
be procured. There was some
evidence of strength at first.
Those in/high positions and fa-
vored places, the law makers of
the Democratic party of the
South, became alarmed and
through and by means of that
alarm, some real good was ac-
complished. But having forsak-
en- it's initial purposes and hav-
ing deserted the original founda-
ton upon which the organization
was builded, there should have
been no hope for a permanent
development. did not see it
then but to me now it is very
clear. The Populist wave soon
receded and the rank and file of
the POpulist party began to
dwindle away. We had -four
ished in Washington county and
had captured some of the spolls
of the government. So far as
reform in local affairs / can not
point with certainty to any spe-
cific reform which we brought
about. To the contrary, il
seems to me that the Populist
party of Washington county in
the last few years has done more
to counteract the real and bene-
fetal reforms of the Democratic
party than il has done to bring
about reforms. Its leaders have
been waging their campaigns
upon destructive platforms rath-
er than constructive. They
abuse and discredit in clarion
tones what is done by the Demo
cratic party, but instead, they
offer no plan of construction for
the peoples benefit. The party
has shaken off its original name
and for the last few years its
campaigns have been waged un-
der a non de plume. In fact, the
Populist party is just as Tom
Watson has said, dead, and has
been so for several years. The
present organization in Wash
ington county is no more Popu.
listic in principle than it is in

Now, there was no visible evidence
of lack of control in either of these

control which proved worse than
wildness in both cases. Every twirler

Many Miss Feature.
Most fans are aware of the plan
worked by the batteries when a fast
base runner has landed on first and
is almost sure to try for a steal of
second, but they often miss some
feature OF this strategic effort. If
the pitcher sends the sphere over the
plate and the man on first makes n
dash for the middle station on 1t, the
catcher is necessarily interfered with
in his effort to throw down to second

has to step away from the plate. then
steady himself before getting the ball

the ball on the side unoccupied by the
batter, the catcher is in a position to
make the throw instantly. Sometimes
the batter will waste as many as
Then. If the base runner. contrary
to expectations, sticks to first base,
If base on >-a-is results, from many
unknowing fans the cry goes up:
He's up in the air-take him out"
But in these tight places many of the
star pitchers prove equal to the oc-
casion and no harm is done though
the scheme has failed. 1t happens,
though, at times on the very high
pitch upon which the base runner
starts on his pilfering career the
pitchers delivery goes over the plate
unintentionally This may look like
good control, but it isn't. A chance
to register an out has been lost by II
and the pitcher is momentarily dis
gusted with himself.
The manager of the team which is
at bat when this situation comes up
invariably instructs the man at the
plate to swing on any ball pitched,
no matter how wide, If the base run

possible. The instructions to batters
