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 I*. 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. Send contributions to

PEOPLE’S PARTY PAPER, ATLANTA, GEORGIA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1892.
Their Acceptance.
Progressive Farmer.
In his speech accepting the Demo
cratic nomination for President, Mr.
Cleveland used good English. He
always does. But there was not the
faintest hope of financial relief or any
thing of that nature to be gleaned
from it. It seems that he carefully
avoided saying anything that could
be construed or misconstrued. If he
could go West and struggle with a
mortgage and be carried several
miles by a cyclone now and then,
perhaps he would repent. As it is
he lives in the prosperous air of Wall
street. If he ever was poor he has
forgotten all about it. His eyes are
closed to the necessity for a change.
As long as coporations can breed mil
lionaires he will stolidly refuse to
listen to ail reason.
Mr. Harrison in his letter accept
ing the nomination differs from Mr.
Cleveland in one respect. He is in
and wants to stay in. Mr. Cleveland
is out and wants to get in. Mr.
Harrison attacks the policy of the
Democratic party, but offers nothing
better. He simply hopes that the
threadbare and false doctrines of
protection will again place him in
power. The Democratic platform
has something about State banks.
He opposes that, but suggests no
change by which the government
can again control our money. He
talks about honest elections, but ig
nores the fact that the whole people
have been cheated out of their votes
by the politicians for several elections.
The Democratic rot about State banks
was put in to catch suckers. It is
contrary to the teaching of Jefferson,
who opposed any plan to issue money
except by the National Government.
President Harrison asserts that “the
general condition of our country is
one of great prosperity,” notwith
standing the terrible state of affairs
existing. He is said to be an Elder
in the Presbyterian church, but he
will have to stick closer to the turth
than that if he passes muster.
Altogether there is nothing in the
promise of the would-be rulers. The
Czar of Russia or King of Spain are
nearer their subject than either. The
policy of Cleveland and Harrison
seems to be to help the strong and
oppress the weak. They know nor
care nothing about anybody worth
less than a million. Nothing would
be said by either, if elected, about
Congress looking after the farmers or
mechanics. Contrast their records
with that of Weaver and see which
deserves your vote.
THE PEOPLES~FARTY.
State Platform, Adopted at Atlan
ta, July 20th, 1892.
We endorse and reaffirm the preamble,
resolutions and platform adopted by the
People’s Party i» national convention as
sembled 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
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.
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.
Assemoled 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 toe people of this
country, the following preamble and declara
tion of principles;

with the purposes of the national constitu
tion —to form a more perfect union and es
tablish justice, insure domestic tranquility,
provide for the commoi defense, promote
the general welfare and secure' th© bless
ings of lioerty for ourseives 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 he in fact, as
ire are 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 agricxiltural 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 commodl
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 th©
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 naturally
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 man to first help us to determine
whether wo 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 wi4 never cease to move for
ward until eV’fiy wrong is righted and
equal rights and equal privileges securely
established for all men and women of thia
country.
We declare, therefore:
1. That the union of the Labor force© of
the Uniled State© 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, shall he eat.” The in
terests of rural find civic Gabor ar© th©
samejtheir enemies are identical.
3. We believe the time has com©
when railroad corporations will either own
the peojxle or the people must own the rail
roads: and shouldJ the government enter
upon the work of < Mrning and managing all
railroads, we shod !• favor an amendment
to the consiltutloi Jby which all persons
engaged in the goi ernment service shall be
placed under a ciy V service regulation of
the most rigid character, so as to prevent
an increase of thel power of the national
administration by )t&6 use of such addition
al government employes.
We demand a u'atiohal currency, safe
sound and flexible,\isflued by the general
government only, a mill legal tender for all
debts, public and private, and that with
out the use of bankink 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 ankium be provided as
set forth in the sub-treasury plan of the
Farmers’ Alliance, or/ some better system;
also by payment in\iischarge of its ob
ligations for public itflbrovementa.
We demand the free and unlimited coin
age of silver and gold aft the present legal
ratio of 16 to 1. <
We demand that the of the cir
culating medium be spej^^^kiivneased to
not less than fifty doii’
We demand a ax.
We believe that the coun
try should be kept as in the
hands of the people, and he® ' y emand.
that all state and shall
be limited to the mses of
the government honestly
administered.
We demand that pestal^M n \kbanks be
established by the gove; .r the safe
deposit of the earnings imd
to facilitate exchange.
Transportation bein • iof ex
change and a public nes jW>j " 1 govern
ment should own and op “ |ailroads
in the interest of t- 10 t,ele "
graph and the telephor" wre postal
system, being a jpr the .trans
mission of news, t' be owned and op
erated by the government in the interest of
the people. y ' , ,
The land, including all the natural
sources of wealth/, is the heritage of ail the
people and shouhft not be monopolized for
speculative purpAses, and alien ownersliip
of land should Ae prohibited. AH lands
now held by railroads and other corpora
tions in exces?s of their actual needs,. and
all lands noW owned by aliens should be
reclaimed the government and held for
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.
Firstr— Resolved. That we demand a free oal
flot and a fair coxint 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—Resolved, That the revenxxe derived
from a graduated income ta x 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-Umon
soldiers and sailors.
Fourth —Resolved, That we condemn, tue
fallacy of protecting Atfieriean labor under
the present system, wnieh opens our ports to
the paupef and criminal elapses of rlie world,
and crowds out our wage earners: and we de
nounce the present ineffective laws against
contract labor,. and demand the furthdr re
striction of undesirable immigration.
Fifth—Resolved, That we cordially Fyxnpa
thize with the efforts of orga dzed workir.gr
men to shoiten the boiirsot' 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 army of mercena
ries, known as the Pinkerton system, as a men
ace to our liberties, and we demand its aboli
tion ; and we eondexan the recent invasion of
the territory of Wyomlng by the hired assae
slns of plutocracy, assisted by federal officials
Seventh—Resolved. That we commend to the
favorable cons .delation 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 sny 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
vention assembled at Omaha on the 4th of
July, 1892, 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, Stare and local, shall be eligible to sit
or vote in any convention of this party, and a
cony 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
with the Knights of Labor in their righteous
contest with the tyrannical combine of cloth
ing inauu facturers of Rochester and declares
it to be the duty of all who hate tyranny and
oonressiou to refuse to purchase the goods
made by said manufacturers or to patronize
any merchants who sell such goods.
NOTICE.
Please do not send us checks so
less than five dollars, as the banks ob
ject to receiving them on deposit. Do
not send stamps if it can be avoided.
Never send them unless oiled paper is
placed next to the gummed side to

they are rubbed over the hair it .will
usually prevent them from sticking so

St. Louis, Mo., August 20,1892.
A New Novel by Hon. Ignatius Don
nelly, and a chance to help
the People’s Party.
Hon. Ignatius Donnelly has just writ
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
the 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 bis 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
for a bound copy, or 50 cents for a copy
in paper cover©, 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 wonders uliy
interesting story, based on an original
conception and putting forth very
singular and remarkable 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. V e
urge every friend of the cause not only
to subscribe himself, but to request his
friends and neighbors to do so. They
will get a book at the regular price,
which they would probably desire to
buy anyhow, and besides helping along
the campaign of the People’s Party.
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 of Re
form, even at the risk of lessening the
sale of the bock in other quarters.
“The Golden Bottle” will not be
ready for two or three weeks, but send
in names and money at once. There 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
receivsd—first come first served. Be
sure to write your name and postofiice
plainly. Address
