The Democracy of Georgia, assembled In convention after the most memorable campaign ever waged before the people of this state, reaffirms Its abiding faith In the doctrines of the party as declared by Its great .rounder. We rejoice at the news from so many states and cities of the republic people are *tudylng their rights and have determined to assert The protective tariff taxes the masses of the people to nil the pockets of them. Th, the few. ... 'y® declare our hostility to the entire system of tariff for protection, J? rge , . nex f nat| onal Democratic convention to moke this issue before the people ln a simple and unmistakable manner. The great transportation companies have Issued millions of dollars of an “ bonds In excess of the money put Into their properties, and securtries* aX nR th ® n< * u<trlea of the people to pay dividends on fictitious .1 “ r * e th ® P ext Democratic national convention to moke this condl- an Issue before the people, to the end that the evils com plained of may be remedied. . ?H e _5 rea * body of the people throughout the United States have suf- rered during recent years from the Inexcusable burdens placed on them by the trusts, forcing up the prices of what the masses have to buy, and forc ing down the prices of what the masses have to sell. . . , ur p e tpe n . ext Democratic national convention to make an open, plain attack upon these monopolies and present the necessity for their sup pression as an Issue before the people. These Issue* must culminate In the political battle of 1905, when the Democratic voters will rally to the standards of our great leader, William Jennings Bryan. The Democracy of Georgia pledges its earnest and loyal support to the cause of the people In that struggle. With an abiding faith In the justice of our cause, we give hearty In dorsement to the great commoner from Nebraska, and earnestly declare In favor of his nomination for the presidency as the man of all others who will lead the Democratic hosts to certain victory. No man can serve two masters with equal fidelity to both. Those men who elect to represent special Interests and owe their first fealty to them, do not deserve, and ought not to hold, party positions of dignity. Influence and power. The party machinery and the government, state and national, should be completely purged of such men. In our own state, by the overwhelming verdict of the people, It has become the settled policy of the Democratic party that representatives of special Interests will not be permitted to hold positions of confidence and power In the counsels of the party.. We earn estly commend this example to the Democracy of the nation and to our Democratic brethren In every state. Under able and uncompromising leadership, the people of Georgia have revolted against the evil tendencies which have become’well-nigh universal, and have appointed this convention to set the helm aright and renew the promise of good government. We, the representatives of the Democracy of Georgia, in convention as sembled, therefore do now resolve and declare as follows: We declare it to be the policy of the Democratic party of Georgia that hereafter all primary elections for United States senatore, state house of ficers, supreme court and appellate court judges, should such latter court be created, shall be by direct popular vote. MAJORITY PLAN DEMANDED, The candidate who, upon the consolidation of the votes throughout the entire state, receives a majority of all the votes cast shall be declared the nominee of the party for that office. If no candidate shall receive a ma jority of the total vote cast the two candidates for any ofllce receiving the highest number of votes cast, and no others, shall run In a second primary; and the candidate receiving a majority of the votes cast In the second pri mary shall be declared the party's nominee. For judges and solicitors by a plurality of the votes cast In their respective circuits. We demand the passage of a general primary election law, to carry Into effect the foregoing recommendations. We urge the adoption of a consti tutional amendment Increasing the state senate so as to constitute every county of the state having a population of 20,000 or more Into separate senatorial districts, the remaining counties to be redistricted, placing not exceeding three counties to a senatorial district. The state Democratic executive committee shall be a ministerial and ex ecutive body only. Its duties shall be discharged with Judicial Impartiality. It shall not assume unusual authority and shall be guided by precedent In so far as precedent can be applied to existing conditions. We disapprove the action of the recent state executive committee In printing unnecessary pledges os a caption to the ballot. Such action was unwise, contrary to the unbroken custoip of the party, and calculated to divide the white people of the state Into two parties, rather than build up the Democratic party, by obliteration of factional lines. Moreover, we regard such action as opening a wide possibility In the future for th* usurpation of power. W* declare It to be a permanent principle of the Democratic party organisation that all quali fied white voters In Georgia, Irrespective of past political affiliations, who In good faith desire to align themselves with the party, are cordially Invited to do so, upon the sole condition that they will abide the result of the party primary and support the party nominations. We demand that every safeguard be thrown around our primary and general elections to protect the purity of the ballot. We indorse and ap prove the law passed at the recent session of the legislature prohibiting the employment of workers at the polls, or in advance of the election, as welt ns the buying and selling of votes. We recognise the corruption of the ballot as one of the greatest evils to our system of government, and we favor further legislation that will have the effect of disfranchising any person found guilty of buying or selling votes In a primary or general elec tion. We recommend that appropriate legislation be passed authorising and empowering the state and county Democratic executive committees to pass upon and determine all contests arising from the primary elections and that they be Invested with power to subpena witnesses and to compel the attendance of-same. We favor the payment by the state of the expense of holding primary and general elections for United States senators and state house officers by the counties composing the congressional and senatorial districts for the election of members of congress and state senators, by the coun ties composing the Judicial circuits, for the election of Judges and solici tors. By the counties, for the election of members of the legislature and couhty officials. We believe It to be unjust to put the burden of these ex penses upon the candidates, because comparatively few are able to bear the expense of holding these elections, and the opportunity should be af forded to the poorest cltlsen to offer for public office. The work of the legislature Is Inseparably connected with the work of the state house officials, and we declare In favor of fixing by law a uniform date for nominating our state house officers, members of con gress, Judges, solicitors and all members of the state legislature. We favor a uniform system throughout the state of nominating the county officers on the same day, and fixing by law the date for same. We favor legislation requiring all candidates for public office to publish In detail, and file with the proper officials, on oath and by Item, the cam paign expenses Incurred by them, the amount of money used In such campaign, the purpose for* which It was used, and the source from which It was derived. We denounce in unqualified terms the use of money, free passes, tele graph, telephone and express franks and other improper means by Indi viduals or corporations, for the purpose of Influencing or buying votes, or in any way corrupting the purity of our elections. We demand the enactment of laws prohibiting the giving or acceptance of free passes of every character, and free service of every kind by the transportation and public service corporations of this state, except to employees of such corporations and members of their families. We denounce as n crime against the public welfare the practice of the corporations of the country tn making contributions to campaign funds, and we demand the enactment of laws to prohibit and make criminal all auch acts, ana to provide suitable .penalties for violations of the same. We demand the enactment of laws requiring all railroad corporations operating In this state under foreign charters to either domesticate and operate under Georgia charters, or that they be required to secure a proper nermlt or license for operation In Georgia, which permit or license shall only be granted upon the condition that they shall submit tbemsslves to the Jurisdiction of stste courts. We regard the steady encroachment of the federal courts upon the rights of the states as an unwarranted ex tension of the federal authority, to deprive the Individual citizen of the constitutional privilege of having his cause tried by a Jury of the vicinage. We denounce the crime of lobbying as one of the greatest offenses against the public welfare. , , We demand of the next general assembly the passage of a law clearly defining this offense, prohibiting any employed agents or attorneys from addressing or speaking to members of the general assembly In regard to anticipated or pending legislation, except before the proper committee of said body In regular session. We demand, further, that all such agents and attorneys who desire to present their views In regard to legislation, shall register their names with the secretary of the senate and speaker of the house In a book kept by each for that purpose, which book shall be open at all time to Inspection by any person, end In which book said person so registering shall state his name, place of residence, the person or corporation which he represents and the legislation In which he Is Interested. The law against lobbying should also Impose severe penalties on all persons guilty of violating the same. - We condemn the system by which the great railroad corporal on* of the country have been permitted to Issue fabulous amounts of fictitious or watered stocks and bonds, many times In excess °I * h « pro £' erty upon which they are based. We look upon this great evil as the pri mary cause of excessive freight rates. The constitution of Georgia Imposes upon the general assembly the duty of passing laws from time to ttme to prohibit the various railroads of Georgia charging more than Just and reasonable rates for the transporta tion of freight and passengers. The method heretofore adopted for carrying out thla command has been through the Inairumentallty of a railroad commlaalon. Thla commission Is charged with the duty of aecuring for the people of the atate reasonable “ nd H U Vtand , a h a t a a ?he P mBchme r ry at pravlded by law to protect the public aaalnat oppression by the transportation companies. If the members of this commisalon do not discharge the duty Imposed upon them, they tall to protect the Interests of the public, and should resign or be removed. Their reasons are Immaterial. Personal considerations cannot be admit ted The nubile welfare must not wait on formality. The people of Geor gia' are entitled to Just rate* from the carriers, and no ratea can be just The geographical situation of Georgia, her extensive sea coast, and proximity to deep water navigation, entitle our people to aa cheap freight rates as are given to the people In neighboring states similarly situated, and cheaper than the rates that are given In stntes remote from the aea. Water transportation Is claimed to he the controlling factor In the estab lishment and maintenance of freight ratea. The rivers and harbors of Georgia should be a factor In framing the rate exacted of the people of Georgia. It Is the duty of the commission to demand of the transporta tion companies ratea based upon our proximity to the ocean. If the com mlaalon will not. or cannot, under the circumstances, command ratea thatare reasonable and Just, then the commissioners should either be removed and others put In their places, or a new body should be created with enlarged powers sufficient to demand and enforce the Just rights of the people. We recognize the right of the railroads to a reasonable profit upon their Investment. We recognise their right to protection by law In all their legitimate Interests. We make no attack upon their right to do busi ness and earn a reasonable profit upon their capital. We shall always uphold and maintain auch rights, and we pledge the good faith of the Democratic party of Georgia to the fullest protection of these corporations In the legitimate exercise of their privileges and the protection of their property, but we deny their right to, discriminate against tho p*< ’ Georgia by first establishing a monopoly of the transportation lint , then, through the power of auch monopoly, exacting higher rates than are charged elsewhere, for the purpose of paying dividends upon watered stock* and fictitious securities. READJUSTMENT OF FREIGHT8 RATES DEMANDED. We demnnd nn Immediate leveling of Intra-atnte rates to the basts of yielding no more than a reasonable return upon the money Invested, and the abolishment of all discriminations against the people of this state, In favor of the people of other states. We demand the Immediate repeal of all preferential rates above the standard Jarlff which the main railroad systems of Georgia ore permitted to charge. We demafld that the railroad commlaalon of Georgia shall take Im mediate steps upon these Important matters, so os to place the shippers and consumers of this state upon equal footing with their competitors else where. We call especial attention to the Immediate necessity for a reduction of rates from our seaports to and from all Interior points. We are situated upon the seaboard Our coast opens to us the waterways of the world. This Is an Inestimable natural advantage of which we are deprived by the excessive rates enacted to and from the port* to the Interior. The de struction of all competition between railroads In Georgia, by the owner ship In a few Individuals of all these grant properties, enables the rail road corporations apparently without let or hindrance to place Georgia "at the pinnacle of high freight rates,” to destroy whatever odyantages we should derive from proximity to deep water navigation, and as a conse quence lower rates are enjoyed by cities In other states sit around us, where competition still exists, than are granted to Georgia cities and towns. This anomalous condition Is explained and excused upon the ground that those cities are accessible to river transportation. IF COMMISSION FAIL, INTERPOSITION IS SUGGESTED. We condemn these excessive and discriminating port rates as unjust, and we demand tho Immediate righting of these wrongs by the railroad commission. It the commission falls tn carry out our domsnds, we call upon the executive and legislative departments of the government to use their utmost authority to bring about a proper reduction of ratea to and from the ports to the Interior, as well as rates within the state. We demand the Issuance of general Interchangeable mileage books at a price not exceeding 520 per thousand miles; and we urge upon the rail road commission an Immediate and thorough Investigation of the question as to whether or not the passenger business of the railroads does not now Justify the adoption of a general passenger rate of 2 cents per mile. We favor the abolishment of the present requirement that each of the commissioners shall be skilled In some particular line of business, thus restricting the choice of Individuals for the office of railroad commissioner to comparatively few people. We favor opening this high and responsible office to all men who have the necessary Intelllgsnce and determination to compel the railroads to secede to our reasonable and Just demands. We favor Increasing the powers of the commission to such an extent that It can enforce Its orders, by suitable, swift and certain procedure. We also favor the enactment of such laws as will make the wilful refusal of railroad corporations or any of their agents to obey the orders of the com mission, a penal offense, to be punished by fine or Imprisonment, or both. WARNING AGAINST HASTY SALE OR LEA8E OF STATE ROAD. In this connection and as a subject Intimately connected with these remedial processes, ws Invite the special attention of the general assembly to the present situation and possible future of the Western and Atlantic railroad, the property of the atate of Georgia. We believe this property should never be sold or leased without the fullest warning to the people and the fullest opportunity for an ascertainment of the public will. The act cf December 21, 1836, under which It was built, contemplated Its ultimate extension to the sea. Circumstances caused that plan temporarily to be laid aside. But the time has come for the general assembly to seriously consider the question of Its resumption. The white primary evolved out of our perplexities Is a marvelous tri umph of Self government, and should always be retained and strengthened. Back of It, boweyer, stands the lowering threat that whenever tha hosts of privilege need support, they will seek to divide our people and by means of the corrupt and venal negro vote, retain the balance or power. AS TO NEGRO DISFRANCHI8EMENT. We favor the adoption of an educational qualification for voting, along the llnea followed by our sister states of Virginia,, North Carolina. South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana. The amendment ought to be so drafted as to oxclude the largest possible percentage of the Ignorant and purchasable negro vote, under the limitations Imposed by the federal constitution. At the same time. It must be carefully drawn so aa to protect and safeguard In their right to vote and to provide for the permanent registration for life of all citizens who have served In any of the wars In which this country has been engaged, and their descendants, and also sit persons of good character who understand the responsibilities and duties of citizenship under republican form of government. We believe this re sult can be obtained by an amendment to our constitution substantially similar to th* suffrage provision of the recent constitution of the atate of Alabama, with such changes or modifications as may be. necessitated by local conditions In Georgia. We pledge the faith of the Democratic parly to the people of Georgia that the Democratic members of the general assembly, to .be chosen In the ensuing election, shell In good faith and without delay, submit such an amendment to the people for their ratification or rejection In the general election to be held In October. We earnestly direct the attention of the general assembly of Georgia to all the things herein set out, and demand at their hands such legisla tion as will carry these reforms Into effect. i .(COPYRIGHTED.)]!
