8 PEOPLE’S PARTY PAPER. Entered at. the Post Office at Atlanta, Ga./as aecond class matter, Oct. 16,1891. THEM JIMS. BY EMMA GHENT CURTIS. [Recited by the author before a Denver audience on the occasion of the great mass meeting, and received with thun derous applause.] There'll be two Jims in this campaign— Jim Weaver and Jim Field ; These are the sort of iightin’ stock That neither fly no yield. There ain’t no airs about ’em, Nor aristocratic whims; They're the plainest sort of fellers— These two honest, earnest Jims. When the nation had its little fuss, Some thirty years ago, Jim Weaver wore blue blue toggery— Jim Field wore gray, you know ; They made many a furious dash then At each other’s heads and limbs, But they are marchin’ hand in hand to day— Them re-united Jims. They have learned that while they prac ticed Givin’ each other tell in’ strokes, That the gold-bugs was a robbin’ them And all the other folks ; That they wanted to keep ’em fightin’ And singin.’ battle hymns ; But the time is past when the gold-bugs Can fool them thoughtful Jims. As I said, them Jims is fightin’ stock, And war is in their blood ; And it’s just as hard to stop ’em As it is to stop a flood ; But they are done with fratricidal war That the nation's glory dims ; They’re goin’ to fight plutocracy— Them re-united Jims. Them Jims is not the sort of chaps That slink their country’s cause, And think more of what they’re eatin’ Than they do of helpful laws. They don’t fill theirselves with liquid, In which a hornet swims, Till they have the jumpin’ jimjams— Them sober, decent Jims. Them Jims is both determined That the poor shall have a chance, And not have to pay the fiddler While the stuck-up gold-bugs dance. The toilers soon shall share the wealth, , In which old Shy lock swims ; And they nearly laugh themselves to death — Just tbinkiu’ bout them Jims.

The Brotherhood of Man. The Voice. The brotherhood of man is some thing more than a beautiful senti ment; it becomes a stern and almost appealing fact when such a pesti lence begins to stalk at noonday. What have we in common with the filthy lowermost classes in India, re siding near the mouth of the Gan ges? Is it anything to us what sort of life the outcasts in Teheran, Per sia, lead? Why should we bother our brains or hearts over the lack of sanitary regulations in the interior of Russia, leagues away from rail roads, in towns where no European or American tourist ever wanders ? “What’s Hecuba to him or he to Hucuba,” when Hecuba lives in squalor and filth and rags, an outcast Jewess in Russia, and he is a rail road magnte residing on Murray Hill in New York? Ah! how the pesti lence answers that question, and with what emphasis it repeats the words of Paul, “and hath made of one blood ail nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth!” Last year there was elation and re joicing in this country that whereas we had a tremendous wheat crop, the crop in Russia was a failure, and we have been counting up the mil lions that we made out of Russia’s misfortune. Suppose we wait till the chapter is finished. The failure of the Russian wheat crop meant famine; famine prepared the way fur pestilence; pestilence has now overleaped national boundaries and has begun its march in Europe. Unless it can be stayed, it means disordered industries, a collapse for a shorter or longer period in com merce, a greatly diminished demand for American products, and, possibly, devastation of homes and demorali zation of industries in our own land. In the long run, will we lose or gain by the failure of the Russian wheat crop ? Throwing aside all senti ment, all moral and religious consid erations, all philanthropic feelings, is it not terribly true that the vilest, measliest, sorest-eyed sinner begging for backsheesh in the far orient, without apparently one ray of intel ligence to disturb his complacency in the midst of slime and vermin, has a direct connection with every other member of the human race, and, in self-defense, it becomes our business, if possible, to improve his condition and enlighten his mind, or that of his child? We have heard a good many sermons on the brotherhood of man, but when the cholera gets to preaching on that subject it makes an impression that the most eloquent divine cannot hope to reach. Alabama Democracy. . Alabama Herald, Sept. 1, When the polls were closed Sat urday the boasts were made that all who refused to participte in the primary were debarred from future fellowship with the organized color ed Caucasian Democracy. When it was ascertained that only about 50 per cent, of the white vote in the city and 30 per cent, in the country had participated, and were entitled to fellowship, the blowers ceased to pipe that tune. How the demon strated wishes of the common masses of the common people do pulverize the great and good! and what a sud den flop do they take from their lofty perch, when they read the handwriting on the wall! Can not the bosses ever realize how com pletely and fully they are ignored and opposed by the people? How long will their unbridled audacity torment and afflict a long suffering people? Why can not they compre hend the meaning of all the admoni tions and the square open antago nism that knocks them silly at every opportunity, for it to strike them. They are like a brood of puppies that will not open their eyes, and as each one has his eyes opened by having his brains knocked out the others still hold tight their eyes awaiting their time to have their eyes opened by the same process. Let them look on and bide their time. The process of opening their eyes will continue until they shall be as effectual when practiced on them as those who have gone be fore. Their eyes will be opened in November if their brains have to be knocked out to open them. WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, Col. Peek will speak at Cox’s Cross Roads, Fulton county. The good People’s party citizens have arranged for a free dinner for all who attend. The speakers "will be met at Bolton in the morning and carried to the grounds. Speakers disengaged for that day will confer a favor by ad dressing A. W. Cox, Woodward P. 0., Georgia. Notice to P. P. Men. Cannot the county committeemen and other zealous workers in the re form cause interest themselves in collecting a quarter or a dime from each earnest P. P. man for campaign purposes? The enemy say that we will fail for want of election funds. We neither seek nor desire a corrup tion fund, but we do need a fund to disseminate reform literature and to pay the expenses of the speakers. It is the people’s fight; let the peo ple sustain it.

We endorse and reaffirm the preamble, resolutions and platform adopted by the People’s Party ip rational convention as wem bled 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 ail, and special privileges to none. 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. Ana 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. Assem nled u pon the one hundred and six teen! h 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 G od, put forth in the name of the people of this country, the following preamble and declara tion of principles; The conditions which surround us best jusOTy our co-operation; w* meet In the midst of a nation brought to the verge of moral, political and material ruin. Corrup tion dominates the ballot pox, legislatures, congress, and. touches even the ermine of the oencn. The people are demoralized ; most of the states nave been compelled to isolate v iters at polling places to prevent universal 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 tlie 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 control hug influence dominating both these parties has permitted the exist ing dreadful conditions to develop without 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, fives and children on the altar of mammon; to destroy the multitude in order to secure corruption funds from millionaires. Assembled on the anniversary of the birthday of t.he 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 tbe republic to th® hands of "the plain people” with whose class it originated. We asset* ou* te he i4satig»i with the purposes of the national constitu tion—to form a more perfect union and es tablish justice, in sure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote tbe general welfare and secure the bless ings of liberty for ourselves and* our pos terity. We deciare that this republic can only' endure as a free government while built upon the love of the whole people for each other, and for the nation; that it can not ba 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 arc in name, one united brotherhood. Our country finds 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 land. While our sym pathies, as a party of reform, are naturailv upon the side of every proposition which 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 wifi 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 Uniied States this day consummated shall be permanent and perpetual. May its spirit enter into all hearts for the salva 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 same; their enemies are identical. 3. We believe that the time has come when railroad corporations will either own the people or the people must own the rail roads : and should the government enter upon the work of owning and managing all railroads, we should, favor an amendment to the constitution by whicn all persons engaged in the government service shall bo placed under a civil service regulation of the most rigid character, so as to prevent an increase of the power of the national administration by toe 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 ail 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 set forth in the sub-treasury plan of the Farmers’ Alliance, or some better system; also by payment in discharge 'of its ob ligations tor public improvements. We demand the free and unlimited coin age of silver and gold at the present legal ratio of 16 to 1. v We demand that the amount of the cir culating medium be speedily increased to not less than fifty dollars per capita. We demand a graduated income tax. We believe that the money of the coun trv should ba kept as much as possible in the bands 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 tor the trans mission of news, snould be owned and op erated by the government in the interest of the people, . . The ’and, Including all the natural •‘sources of wealth, is the heritage of all the people and should not be monopolized for speculative purposes, ana alien ownership of land should be prohibited. All lands now held by railroads and other corpora tions in excess of their actual needs, amt all lands now owned by aliens should reclaimed by the government and held lOJ actual settlers only. * Supplemental Resolutions. 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 convention. First—Resolved, That we demand a free bal lot and a fair count in all elect ions 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—Resolved, 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 ana liberal pensions to ex-Uuion soldiers and sailors. Fourth—Resolved, That we condemn the fallacy of protecting American labor unaer 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 Fympa 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. Sixth—Resolved, That we regard the main tenance of a large standing ajmy of mercena ries, known as the Pinkerton system, us a men ace to our liberties, and we demand its aboli tion ; and we condemn the recent invasion of the territory of Wyoming by the hired assas 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 constitu 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 par y organization of the people unaffected b • the interests of those in public service does hereby 7 in national con vention assembl< dat Omaha on the 4th of July, 892, establish this ordinance as funda mental law of party organization, viz: No per son holding any office or position of profit, trust or 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 future convention of the par ty.” RESOLUTION OF SYMPATHY. Resolved, That this-convention sympathizes witn 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.

Ignatius Don nelly, and a chance to help the People’s Party. Hon. Ignatius Donnelly has justwrit ten a new book, a novel, entitled “The Golden Bottle.” He has prepared this romance with a view to helping the People’s Party movement; not only by making the story illustrate the great questions of rhe day—the land-loan, the demoneti zation of silver, government ownership of railroads, and the universal era of reform that will follow in the footsteps of the triumph of the People’s Party; but also by arranging with his publish ers and cutting down profits from the price of every book sold by orders sent to the undersigned, so that one-half the purchase price will go to the Campaign Fund of the People’s Party. That is to say, if any person orders the book from our Committee, and sends $1.25 fora bound copy, or 50 cents fora copy in paper covers, one-half of the amount so sent will be turned into the cam paign fund of the People’s Party of the United States, to be used in distribut ing documents and paying expenses of speakers, and the other half will be sent to the publishers, who will for ward the book, by mail, to the pur chasers, prepaid. Those who have read the book in manuscript, say that it is a wonderfully interesting story, bfised on an original conception and putting forth very singular and remarkauie ideas. If it has anything like the sale of Mr. Don nelly’s other books, it will yield a large revenue to the People’s Party. We urge every friend of the cause not only to subscribe himself, but to request bis friends and neighbors to do so. I hey will get a book at tbe regular price, which they would probably desire to buy anyhow, and besides helping along the campaign of the People’s Parly. Let every one help in this good work. Remember that this is not done to se cure a sale for the book, for it will sell anyhow, but to help the cause oi Re form, even at the risk of lessening the sale of the book in other quarters. “ The Golden Bottle ” will not be ready for two or three weeks, but send in names and money at once, mere is likely to be a great demand for copies of the book, and they will be sent out in the order in which the names are receivad—first come first served. Be sure to write your name and postoffice plainly. Address 1 J. H. TURNER, Hotel Richelieu, St. Louis, Mo. H. E. Taubeneck, Chairman. M C. Rankin, Treasurer, J.
