BADLY MIXED
A Secret Circular Being
Disseminated.
WORK OF THE POPS
Some Have Combined With tte
Republicans
TO DEFEAT THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
Mr. McGarrity’s Has Not With
drawn From the Race
SOME WILL SUPPORT MASSEY
Every Democrat In the Seventh Congress
ional District Should Turn Out and
Vote Tuesday.
Here is the very latest combination.
It looks like Hannah’s barrel has been
tapped.
The populists have decided to com
bine with the republicans.
Therefore every democrat in the Sev
enth congressional district should take
warning and turn out and vote for Judge
Maddox on Tuesday next.
The democratic vote is laige enough
to carry the district over all sorts of con
spiracies and combinations if every man
will but do his duty.
The following secret circular, prepared
by the populist leaders and sent out all
over the district, tells the story.
It was discovered yesterday and The
Tribune 1 as'ens to give it publicity so as
to put the democrats on guard.
In spite of their protestations in favor
of free silver and ief>rm th i populist
leaders, though spite and prejudice
against the democratic party, have fol
lowed in the footsttp: of Dr. Felton.
But here is the circular:
Rome, Ga., October 27, 1896.
To the populists of the Seventh Con
gressional District:
Since the withdrawal of the Bryan
and Watson electoral ticket in this
State, thereby leaving us to vote as
we deem best; and
Since we are indignant and outraged
by the treatment that Mr. Watson
has received at the hands of the or
ganized Democrats; and
Since we have been reliably in
formed that Mr. J. W. McGarrity has
said that he would vote for McKinley
and Hobart, thereby giving his sup
port to the republican platform, and
for other and good reasons, we, the
undersigned populists of the Seventh
congressional district, believe it will
be to the interest of our party in this
district to vote for Walter Lee Massey
for congress.
Our principal reasons for advising this
course, and for our adoption of this
action, are the following:
Ist. Becasue, by the withdrawal of our
electorial ticket we are unable to give the
support we proposed to Mr. McGarrity,
inasmuch as there is no ticket in this dis
trict or state for us to work for or to as
sociate with Mr. McGarrity’s candidacy.
2nd. It behooves us as patriotic popu
lists to defeat the democratic ring pow
ers, and to show our condemnation of
their unjust and unfair treatment of our
vice-presidential candidate. This we
can do in no other way except by the

Loss of Memory, with a painful sensation of
having failed to do something which ought to
have been done; Debility; l-ow Spirits, a thick
Bellow appearance of the Skin and Eyes, a dry

Sometimes many of these symptoms attend
the disease, at others very few; but the Liver
is generally the seat of the disease, and if not
Regulated in time, great suffering, wretched

defeat is through the election of Mr.
Massey. Mr. Massey is the logical and
only candidate around whom we can

combination formed in his favor will
result in a victory over organized de

Editor Tribune —Will you do me the

Since the Bryan and Watson electoral
ticket has been withdrawn in Georgia
as I understand it with a view of weak
ening Bryan and Sewall in this state
ae a resort against organized democ
racy for the manner in which Mr.
Watson has been treated by them, I
with a great many other populists
have thought it best to support Mr.
Massey for congress in this race, be
lieving that after the result of the
national election is known all true re
formers of the several parties will be
united in grand army under the ban
ner of Bryan and Watson, the only
true representatives of Jeffersonian
democracy. lam for Bryan and Wat

Yet Another.
To the People of the Seventh Con
gressional District:
Whereas, A circular signed by a few
disgruntled, so-called populists, ask
ing the populists of the district to
vote for Mr. W. L. Massey, the repub
lican nominee for congress, assigning
as a reason for this very strange re
quest a rumor that they claim to have
heard that Mr. J. W. McGarity has
said that he would vote for McKinley
and Hobart. They also advance as
an additional reason that the only
way to show our just indignation at
the unjust treatment to which our
candidate for vice-president has been
subjected by the democratic party is
to vote for the republican nominees.
Therefore, be it resolved, That we
denounce the action taken by the
signers of said circular as not author- i
ized by the executive committee of
the people’s party, nor by any public
meeting of populists, and that it does I
not represent the views nor feelings of
any considerable number of populists. 1
The princfpl is oi the republican plat j
for n are as antagonistic to the prin
ciples set forth in the people’s party 1
platform as it is possible for political
principles to- be, and a vote for
Massey, as recommended in the cir- I
cular, is a repudiation of the
principles for which the people’s
party has fought for four yeais. We
urge and request not only all populists
but all citizens who are in favor of clean
politics and who are tired of the ring rule
and the ring methods which are proving
so distinctive to all good government to
vote for J. W. McGarrity for congress.
He is a clean and upright farmer, in
every way identified with our great agri
cultural interests and has been unani
mously nominated by regular action of
the populists of the Seventh Congress
ional district.
We deplore and regret tlta* such un
authorised circulars and false rumors is
sued just proceeding the election seem to
cast ignominy on our party and are among
tl.e usual weapons-by which corrupt poli
ticians seek to obtain power.
Believe no rumors that Mr. McGar
rity has or will be withdrawn from
the race.

The Alabamian Says That Bryan I«a Pupil

Alexandria, Va., Oct 31 —Senator
Morgan of Alabama spoke to an audi
ence of 1,000 people on the political is
sues of the campaign at the opera
house. The chief part of his remarks,
related to the silver question. At the
beginning he said George Washington
as president approved a bill for the free
coinage of gold and silver.
“T ey repealed the Washington law
and we are here trying to restore it.
That is the offense for which we are
denounced as anarchists, repudiators,

pelling them to buy from him gold,
which he got for his crops in England?”

Sympathy With tffe Nebraskan.
i Ottumwa, la., Oct. 31.—Mr. Bryan
; entered lowa on the Illinois Central at
' 6 a. m. and made his first speech of the
day at Mount Pleasant at 7 o’clock, be
fore he had his breakfast.
The air was cold and crisp and seemed
to give the candidate new vigor for his
last tour across the state. He appeared
in good voice and spoke so distinctly as
to be heard with ease,by the large crowd
which had congregated thus early in
the day. The audience was an enthu
siastic one and was evidently in sympa
thy with the speaker. Mr. Bryan’s
speech at Mount Pleasant was devoted
to discussing the usual lines of his later
campaign efforts.
At Fairfield, where he was met by a
a large crowd, Mr. Bryan devoted him
self to questions which had been pro
pounded to him by telegraph. When
Mr. Bryan arrived at Ottumwa, he was
met at the station by a reeption com
mittee who escorted him to the city,
where he remained for more than an
hour addressing the crowds which had
gathered to hear him in different places.
Wanted a Receiver for the Vandalia.
Indianapolis, Oct. 31.—The applica
tion for a receiver for part of the Van
dalia railroad system has been filed in
the United States court This is the
prospective suit that was mentioned
several weeks ago and at that time offi
cials of the road denied that there
would be a suit for a receiver. The
suit is brought by owners and holders
of $1,403,000 bonds of the Terre Haute
and Peoria railroad, who allege that
there is due them on those bonds $45,373,
together with interest from Sept.
1, 1896. The complainants in the case
are Mark T. Cox and James A. Blair of
New Jersey, and James W. Paul, of
Philadelphia. The date for the hearing
of the suit will probably be fixed for the
latter part of next week.
A Voting Lady Assassinated.
Benton, Ky., Oct. 31.—The daughter
of John M. Sullivan, living four miles

blood at 9p. m., and the greatest ex
citement prevails as a result. The
young woman was a beautiful girl of
prominent family, and about 18 years of
age. The assassin, who is believed to
be a rejected suitor, is unknown, but
bloodhounds aie on his trail, and if he is
caught there wi'.r be a lynching. The
