PRESS COMMENT.
The Dakota Ruralist (Huron, S.
D.,) says:
Tais is a question for the cool, so
ber judgment of the people. Is an
over-worked, tax ridden people being
taxed to keep up a standing army
which at every opportunity will be
called at the behest of the millionaire
to keep the workingmen in subjec
tion? Down under the rottenness of
political supremacy, there is some
thing wrong somewhere. Shylock
is the power behind the throne~-thc
forked - tongued fiend in sheep’s
clothing. r l he unseen fires of a na
tion’s hell are burning in the vaults
of AV all street, and the merry apos
tles of the plutocratic Mogul sit and
watch it burn and burn the vitals of
the republic.
1 orchlightof Liberty,Montgomery,
Mo., says:
An acre of corn in 1870 brought
$L>.-17, in 1880 $1’0.91, and in 1890
$8.82. An acre of wheat in 1870
brought sl4 50, in 1890 $9.25. An
acre of oats in 1870 brought $12.18,
in 1890 $7.33. Since 1870 about 40
per cent, of the value has been
squeezed out of the products and
added to the value of the dollar
through the demonetization of silver
ami subsequent contraction of the
currency.
The Western Herald (Girard,
Kansas,) says:
Ko one questions the statement so
often made by the plutocratic papers
that “this is the richest nation on the
earth.” But these same papers fail
to tell their readers that 95 per cent,
of this great wealth is concentrated
in the hands of one half of one per
cent, of the entire population.
The Southern Alliance, of Talla
dega, Ala., accepts the logical con
clusion that the plain people of Ala
barna, lately victims of fraud by a
combination of the “organized”
Democracy and Republicanism of
the State, must come to the People’s
Party. It predicts that the People
will sweep the State November. It
says:
As we intimated last week, the or
ganized Democratic press of the
State are coming forward, strongly
pleading with the outraged people of
Alabama who supported Capt. Kolb
in the late contest to come back in
the fold. Every old why machine
politician is rushing into print, clam
oring for “Harmony” and a com
promise of the differences that ex
ist. But, we would ask, what do
they promise? About all that we
can make out of their proposition is
that if the followers of Capt. Kolb
will come up in November and vote
for Cleveland they will kindly allow
them to participate in future or
ganized Democratic primaries so
long as they, the people, do not an
tagonize the interests of the bosses.
But the people will be slow to forget
the many wrongs and injustices that
have been heaped upon them during
the past few months. And the
bosses and politicians who have
sown the wind will now have to
reap the whirl-wind, for a veritable
cyclone will strike the Demociatic
party of Alabama in November. No.
there is no compromise that the peo
ple and the bosses can enter into.
The people will hardly come for
ward in the face of recent events
and lick the hand that smote them.
The Kansas Commoner (Wichita)
talks like a philosopher:
Do you know that when you speak
of “the purchasing power of the dol
lar” you must first purchase the dol
lar, and that if they are scarce they
will come high in your labor or pro
ducts of the same? Would it not
be better to have cheaper dollars,
better paid labor and more business
at a profit?
The colonization of voters into
Kansas is said to be actively gving
on. The Torch of Liberty, Mound
City, Kan., says:
The manner in which the Repub
licans hope to carry Kansas is by
fraud. They have no other hope or
name for it. It is their purpose to
“plant” at least five fraudulent
voters, white or colored, in each
voting precinct in the State. 1 hei e
being about 3,500 precincts, th.s uid
give 3 them an increase of 17,000
voters, all of which is in keeping
with the past and present history
and practice of that party.
The Union Labor Gazette, of
Mitchell, S. Dakota, sums up the
lesson of Homestead as follows .
Then the real issue is whether la
bor is to have a right to organize and
whether employers treat with labor
organizations, brick and Ca.ueg.o
say they will not recognize organized
labor but must and will treat Hirn
their workmen as individuals oi not
at all. The conflict is on between
capital and labor. The Homestead
tragedy is but one move of capital
in that conflict. Capital has decreed
that labor must not organize, and
proposes to starve it to a compliance
with that decree. Will labor tamely
submit?
The Walnut Valley Sentinel, of
Ness City, Kau., puts it thus :
If wealth is to be placed above
worth ; if property is to be placed
over humanity; if the power to rob
community is what is to determine a
man’s standing in this American re
public, then let us change our form
of government and elect the wealth
iest man in the nation as president,
the next as vice-president, and so on
down through the senate, house and
all the offices. An aristocracy of
wealth is far more hateful than one
of blood, and a despotism of dollars
is far more degrading to the masses
than is one of the sword. The lat
ter is maintained by personal prow
ess, which is, in a certain sense,
commendable ; the former is main
tained through the very meanest
propensities of the human heart,
those of greed and spoliation.
The Workman, of Minden, Neb.,
says :
The election of Harrison and Reid
means a continuation of the present
financial and industrial systems. This
cannot be denied. Thea we are to
have strikes, lockouts, riots, mobs
and all other sorts of local disturb
ances. Now, in ail candor is it pos
sible that labor is always wrong, and
capital always right? Can’t you at
least concede that labor is right part
of the time, and can’t you further
concede that the administration has
at least something to do with it? In
the last ten years there has been a
great many local conflicts between
tabor and capital and invariably the
press and leaders of the dominant
party sympathize with capital. Cap
ital has ruled for thirty years and dis
turbances multiply. A disastrous
and gory conflict is possible under
the present state of affairs; why not
change it? Let labor rule a short
time and note the results.
The Leadville (Col.) Star exhorts:
Don’t be deceived; the Omaha
nominees are the only ones supporting
and advocating free and unlimited
coinage of silver. Vote for the Peo
pie’s party who are working not only
for those now living but generations
yet unborn who may bless or curse
our work. Get in line, stand with
the populists ; vote for the national
and state canidates of the People’s
party, and let the goldbug go to hades.
The Rossville (Ind.,) Journal says :
From many parts of the state come
the reports of immense mass meetings
by the people. Our leaders are hew
ing to the line, and our voters rejoice.
Accessions are reported everywhere.
It is to be hoped our central com
mittee will make arrangements at the
meeting tomorrow to have a public
demonstration in this county. Let
every one up and at them boys, and
victory will perch upon our banner.
The Newton (Iowa) Herald says :
We have but two real parlies : The
party of monopoly and the People’s
patry. What was the real cause of
the trouble and bloodshed at Home
stead ? The relentless and cruel
greed of corporate power. Corpora
tions are greater robbers of earnings
than ever was chattie slavery.
Abolish all corporations for pecuniary
profit.
The Acorn, Marshall, 111., says:
Four years ago Cleveland carried
Alabama by a majority of over Cl,ooo.
Have you read the result of last
Monday’s election in that State ?
One great fact before the American
people with respect to Gen. Weaver’s
candidacy is this: He is a safe
man—one who has on all occasions
proved himself trustworthy and able
to defend the rights of all the people.
If elected he will be Chief Executive
of ail the people.
Farmers Tribune, Des Mjiue g
lowa
The man who presis!s in trying to
urge himself into the belief that the
People’s party stands no show for
success in the coming election, is
simply wasting time. This is a peo
ple’s movement, and the people are
going to walk up to the polls and
vote in their own inserests. Don’t
stop to ask what Colorado and Mont
ana and Georgia and the Carolinas,
and Kansas and other states will do ’
lou khow their electoral votes will
be cast for Weaver. But what will
your township and your county do?
You can carry them—of course you
can. This talk about throwing votes
away when voting for a good cause
in a grand, united movement, is all
bosh, and you know it. The day
for ridicule and abuse of men who
dare to exercise the right of franchise
as free American ci izens is past.
Professional political wire-pullers can
no longer run things in the interest
of organized monopoly that denies
labor the right to organize in its own
behalf. The People’s party is bound
to be a great, grand success from one
end of the land to the other, and the
man who acts the tory will have the
supreme satisfaction after the votes
are counted us looking backward on
a very stupid career. Be a man and
ake a manly strnd in this great moveo
ment of the people, is the only safe
rule to insure a clear conscience.
We Have To Do It.
Virginia Sun.
The designing politician, who does
not know a gentleman when he sees
one, is getting in his dirty work ma
ligning and slandering two of the
noblest gentlemen God ever made—
General Weaver and General Field.
It is said of Weaver that he man
aged to keep well to the rear during
the war, that he is a broken-down
politician, has been everything and
nothing long, and is a bitter South
hater. Manufactured out of the
whole cloth, gentlemen, and you
know it.
Weaver was promoted general for
gallantry in the field. His political
career could not be more consistent,
and is only possible to an able and
honest man. Raised a Republican
and taught to hate the South, at the
opening of his career he could only
speak as he had been taught. But
when he saw that the Republican
party was handing over the people to
the tender mercies of corporations,
he left that party and became a Dem
ocrat, believing in the innocence of
his soul, that it was the party of the
people. He soon found that the
Democratic party was as perfectly
under the control of Wall street as
the Republican, and seeing the terri
ble sufferings inflicted upon the peo
ple by the destruction of their money,
he became a greenbacker, and he has
been one ever since. He has not
come to the People’s party, but the
people have gone to him. We have
the honor of knowing Gen. Weaver
personally, and we are proud to say
that we know no truer, abler, more
determined and consistent advocate
of the people’s rights. If you wish
to know what maimer of man he is,
read his look—A Call to Action—
and you cannot help but admire and
respect its author. As for Weaver
being a South-hater, it is all bosh.
Years ago he hated the South, just
like we hated the North, but to-day
he loves the South a great deal bet
ter than we love the North. He is
clearly ahead of us on that score.
But what folly for the people to
object to Weaver because he is a
Northern man, and to Field because
he is a Southern man I We unite
them on the People’s ticket purposely
to prove beyond all gainsaying that
the war is over and sectionalism is
dead. No one objects but the old
parties, who can’t understand how
this Government can be run without
sectional hate, and don’t mean to try.
Now, a word in defence of Gen.
Field. He does not really need any
defending, but malicious 11 s are be
ing circulated about him, an/ *''me
people are foolish enough to BehAl
them. It is said that he defaulted to
the State in thousands of dollars—
some put it as high as $50,000. Ilere
is the harmless little seed that germ
inated into that monstrosity. Before
General Field was Attorney General
he was employed by the Governor as
counsel under a resolution of the
House of Delegates. For his ser
vices he was paid the usual fees in
the usual manner. Subsequently the
Legislature refused to sanction the
payment on the ground that the Sen
ate had not concurred. That is all
of it, and General Field stands ready
to day to meet any demands the
State may may make on him, but
hitherto she has made none.
Next, General Field is called a
Mahone repudiator. How* convenient
diort memories are to these cam
paign liars. General Field was
never anything but a straight-out
Democrat. He was elected Attor
ney General on the same ticket as
Governor Holiday, and when the
Readjuster Cameron was elected
Governor over Major Daniel, often
speaking with him from the same
platform.
Nailing liesis a species of carpen
try we have little stomach for. It
would suit us much better to nail the
liar, but in these cases he always
takes care to hide behind a third
party, and that is the only kind of
third party he has any use for.
However, we are going to have the
biggest crop of campaign lies ever
raised, and we shall be kept pretty
busy nailing them until next No
vember. Don’t blame the Sun for
nailing, but the liars for lying.

THE PEOPLES PARTY.
State Platform, Adopted at Atlan
ta, July 20th, 1592.
We endorse and reaffirm the preamble,
resolutions and platform adopted by the
People’s Party in national convention as
semoled at Omaha, July 4, 1892. We
indorse the ticket nominated and
pledge the party when it shall come
into power in the State to frame and
administer the laws in the spirit of
the Omaha platform, which is equal
justice to all, and special privileges to
hone.
2. We condemn the convict lease sys
tem.
3. We demand rigid economy in all
public matters and inist on every pos
sible reduction of taxation during the
present impoverished* condition of the
people.
And we call public attention to the
fact that the producing interest in both
city and country is bearing more than its
fair share of taxation.
National Platform, Adopted at
Omaha, July 4th. 1892
Assembled upon the one hundred and six
teenth anniversary of the declaration of inde
pendence, the People's Party of America, in
their first national convention, invoking upon
their action the blessing of the Almighty God,
put forth in the name of ttie people of this
country, the following preamble and declara
tion of principles;
The conditions which surround us best
justify out co-operation; we meet in the
midst of a nation brought to the verge of
moral, political and material ruin. Corrup
tion dominates the ballot box, legislatures,
congress, and touches even the ermine of
the bench.
The people are demoralized; most of the
states nave been compelled to isolate voters
at polling places to prevent univt rsal in
timidation or bribery. Newspapers are
largely subsidized or muzzled; public
opinion silenced; business prostrated; our
homes covered with mortgages; labor im
poverished ; and the land concentrating in
the hands of capitalists. The urban work
men are denied the right of organization for
self-protection; imported pauperized labor
beats down their wages ; a hireling standing
army, unrecognized by our laws, is estab
lished to shoot them down, and they are
rapidly degenerating into European condi
tions. The fruits of the toil of millions are
boldly stolen to build up colossal fortunes
for a few, unprecedented in the history of
mankind; and the possessors of these in
turn despise the republic and endanger
liberty. From the same prolific womb of
governmental injustice, we breed two great
classes—tramps and millionaires. National
power to create money is appropriated to
enrich bondholders; a vast public debt pay
able in legal tender currency has been
funded into gold bearing bonds, thereby
adding millions to the burdens of the peo
ple. Silver, which has been accepted as
coin since the dawn of history, has been
demonetized to add to the purchasing pow
er of gold by decreasing the value of all
forms of property as well as human labor,
and the supply of currency is purposely
abridged to fatten usurers, bankrupt enter
prise and enslave industry. A vast con
spiracy against mankind has been organized
on the two continents and it is rapidly
taking possession of the world. If not met
and overthrown at once it forebodes terrible
social convulsions, the destruction of civil
ization or the establishment of an absolute
despotism.
We have witnessed for more than a quar
ter of a century the struggles of two great
political parties for power and plunder,
while grievous wrongs have been inflicted,
upon the suffering people. We charge
that the controlliug influence dominating
both these parties has permitted the exist-
Ving dreadful conditions to develop without
t serious effort to prevent or restrain them.
Neither do they now promise us any sub
stantial reform. They have agreed togeth
er to ignore in the coming campaign every
issue but one. They propose to drown out
the cries of the plundered people with the
uproar of a sham battle over the tariff, so
that capitalists, corporations, national
banks, rings, trusts, watered stock, de
monetization of silver and the oppression
of the usurers may all be lost sight of.
They propose to sacrifice our homes, lives
and children on the altar us mammon ; to
destroy the multitude in order to secure
corruption funds from millionaires.
Assembled on the anniversary of the
birthday of the nation and filled with the
spirit of the grand general-in-chief who es
tablished our independence, we seek to re
store the government of the republic to the
hands of “the plain people” with whose
class it originated.
We assert our purposes to be identical
with the purposes of the national constitu
tion—to form a more perfect union and es
tablish justice, insure domestic tranquility,
provide for the common defense, promote
the general welfare and secure the bless
ings of liberty for ourselves and our pos
terity. We declare that this republic can
only endure as a free government while
built upon the 1 ove of the whole people for
each other, and for the nation; that it can
not be pinned together by bayonets; but
the civil war is over and that every passion
and resentment which grew out of it must
die with it, and that we must be in fact, as
we are in name, one united brotherhood.
Our country find's itself confronted by
conditions for which there are no prece
dents in the history of the world. Our
annual agricultural productions amount to
billions of dollars in value, which must
within a few weeks or months, be exchang
ed for billions of dollars of the commodi
ties consumed in their production.
The currency supply is wholly inade
quate to make the exchange. The results
are falling prices; formation of combines
and rings; and the impoverishment of the
producing class.
We pledge ourselves that if given power
we will labor to correct these evils by wise
and reasonable legislation in accordance
with the terms of our platform. We be
lieve that the powers of government—in
other words of the people—should be ex
panded as in the case of the postal service,
as rapidly and as far as the good sense of
an intelligent people and the teachings of
experience shall justify, to the end that op
pression, injustice and poverty shall event
ually cease in the laud. While our sym
pathies, as a party of reform, are naturally
upon the side of every proposition whicn
will tend to make men intelligent, virtuous
and temperate, we nevertheless regard
these questions—important as they are —
as secondary to the great issues now press
ing for solution and upon which not only
our individual prosperity but the very exist
ence of free institutions depend, and we
ask all men to first help us to determine
whether we are to have a republic to ad
minister, before we differ as to the condi
tions upon which it is to be administered,
believing that the forces of reform this day
organized will never cease to move for
ward until every wrong is righted and
equal rights and equal privileges securely.
established for all men and women of this
country.
We declare, therefore:
1. That the union of the Labor forces of
the Uniled States this day consummated
shall be permanent and perpetual. May
its spirit enter into all hearts for the salvar
tion of the republic and the uplifting of
mankind.
2. Wealth belongs to him who creates it,
and every dollar taken from industry with
out an equivalent is robbery. “If any will
not work, neither shall he eat.” The in
terests of rural and civic labor are the
nme; their enemies are identical.
3. We believe that the time has come
tvhen railroad corporations will either own
the people or the people must own the rail
roads : and should the government enter
ipon the work of owning and managing all ]
:ajlfoads, we t slx2hldlavor an aoiendjaent
to the constitution by which all persons
engaged in the government service shall be
placet! under a civil service regulation of
the most rigid character, so as to prevent
an increase of the power of the national
administration by the use of such addition
al government employes.
We demand a national currency, safe
sound and flexible, issued by the general
government only, a full legal tender for all
debts, public and private, and that with
out the use of banking corporations ; a just,
equitable and efficient means of distribu
tion direct to the people at a tax not to ex
ceed 2 per cent per annum be provided as
I set forth in the sub-treasury plan of the
: Farmers’ Alliance, or some better system;
also by payment in discharge of its ob
ligations for public improvements.
vVe demand the free and unlimited coin
age of silver and gold at the present legal
ratio of 16 to 1.
We demand that the amount of the cir
culating medium be spcediiy increased to
not less than fifty dollars per capita.
j We demand a graduated income tax.
We believe that the money of the coun
try should be kept as much as possible in the
hands of the people, and hence we demand,
that all state and national revenues shall
be limited to the necessary expenses of
the government economically and honestly
administered.
We demand that postal savings banks be
established by the government for the safe
deposit of the earnings of the people and
to facilitate exchange.
Transportation being a means of ex
change and a public necessity, the govern
ment should own and operate the railroads
in the interest of the people. The tele
graph and the telephone, like the postal
system, being a necessity for the trans
mission of news, should be owned and op
erated by the government in the interest of
the people.
The land, including all the natural
sources of wealth, is the heritage of all the
people and should not be monopolized for
speculative purposes, and alien ownership
of land should be prohibited. All lands
now held by railroads and other corpora
tions in excess of their actual needs, and
all lands now owned by aliens should b*
reclaimed by the government and held for
actual settlers only.
Supplemental Resolutions.
i Whereas, other questions have been present
ed for our consideration, we hereby submit
the following', not as a part of the platform of
the People’s Party, but as resolutions expres
sive of the sentim nt of this co «vention.
First —Resolved, That we demand a free bal
lot and a fair count in all elections and pledge
ourselves to secure it to every legal voter
without federal intervention through the
adoption by the States of the unperverted
Australian or secret ballot system.
Second—Res flved, That the revenue derived
from a graduated income tax should be applied
to the reduction of the burden of taxation now
resting upon the domestic industries of this
country.
Third—Resolved, That we pledge our sup
port to fair and liberal pensions to ex-Union
soldiers and sailors.
fourth—Resolved, That we condemn the
fallacy of protecting American labor unuer
the present system, which opens our ports to
the pauper and criminal classes of the world,
and crowds out our wage earners; and we de
nounce the present ineffective laws against
contract labor, and demand the further re
striction of undesirable immigration.
Fifth—Resolved, That we cordially sympa
thize with the efforts of orga dzed working
men to shorten the hours of labor, and demand
a rigid enforcement of the existing eight-hour
law on government work, and ask that a pen
alty clause be added to the said law.
Sixt h—Resolved, That we regard the main
tenance of a large standing army of mercena
ries, known as the Pinkerton system, as a men
ace to our liberties, and we demand its aboli
-1 tion ; and we condemn the recent invasion of
■ the territory of Wyoming by the hired assas
i sins of plutocracy, assisted by federal officials
Seventh—Resolved, That we commend to the
, favorable cons.deration of the people and the
reform press the legislative system known as
’ the initiative and referendum.
Eight—Resolved, That we favor a constitn-
• tional provision limiting the office of President
> and vice-President to one term, and providing
-for the election of Senators of the United
’ States by a direct vote of the people.
Ninth—Resolved, That we oppose any sub
’ sidy or national aid to an private corporation
■ for any purpose.
’ “The People’s Party at the -outset to secure
• permanent control of the party organization of
the people unaffected by the interests of those
; in public service does hereby in national con
i vention assembled at Omaha on the 4th of
, July, 5892, establish this ordinance as funda
mental law of party organization, viz: No per
son holding any office or position of profit,
trustror emolument under the federal or any
state or municipal government, including Sen
ators, Congressmen and members of the Leg
islature. State and local, shall be eligible to sit
or vote in any convention of this party, and a
copy of this ordinance shall be annexed by ev
ery call for any f uture convention of the par
ty.’’
RESOLUTION OF SYMPATHY.
Resolved, That this convention sympathizes
■with the Knights of Labor in their righteous
contest with the tyrannical combine of cloth
ing manufacturers of Rochester and declares
it to be the duty of all who hate tyranny and
oppression to refuse to purchase the goods
made by said manufacturers or to patronize
any merchants who sell such goods.
County Organizations.
> Clubs ought to be formed at once
in every militia district in every
county in Georgia. Keep things
warm,
The campaign committee urges
that every possible effort be made to
get subscribers for the People’s
thirty Paper. It is the safest, surest
and cheapest campaign work that
can be done.
