sso,ooo A YEAR WASTED. NEPOTISM NEVER SO RAMPANT IN WASHINGTON AS NOW. How the Democratic Leaders in the Senate Use Their Authority to Enrich Their Relatives. Most of the Democratic leaders when the Senate was organized after Mr. Cleveland’s inauguration, caught the ‘‘family fever,” the contagion of, appointing sons, daughters, nephews, nieces, sons-in-law and brothers-m --law to office. Nepotism was never so rampant in fact as it is today un der an Administration pledged to economy and reform. VICE PRESIDENT STEVESON’S BEGIN NING. Vice President Stevenson’s first official act was to appoint his son Lewis G. Stevenson, an excellent young man who had been unable to find a profitable situation elsewhere, private secretary at about $7 a day. He draws salary whether Congress is in session or not. He has little work to do at any time. Senator Cockrell of Missouri on becoming chairman of the Committee on Appropriations, at once appointed his son, Francis M. Cockrell, Jr., an “assistant clerk” at 82,220 a year. The young man is not out of college, and the exactions of the college nine, the boat crew, the foot ball team and Greek root still occupy all his time. Hence it was necessary to have some one else who should be in visible at tendance on the committee. Senator Cockrell accordingly selected E. Y. Mitchell, Jr., the brother-in-law of a fellow member, and he is drawing 81,440 a year- THE “CLERKS” SELDOM DO THE WORK. As in the case of young Stevenson the vice President’s son, whenever there is any work to be done both Mr. Stevenson and Senator Cockrell have to employ a stenographer, as their sons know nothing of the one accom plishment requisite to a secretary. The person qualified to do the work is paid out of the “contingent fund,” ■while the sons draw the salary the year round. Senator Voorhees of Indiana is chairman of the Committee on Fi nance. James P. Voorhees, the son of the Senator, has been appointed clerk and stenographer to the com mittee at an annual salary of 82,500. There is a painful doubt at present existing as to the stenographic skill of the Junior Voorhees. The ser vices of the former clerk, Benjamin Durfee, are retained. The appro priation provides but one salary. So Mr. Durfee, it is alleged, hs paid $lO per day from the contingent fund of the Senate. PUGH, JONES AND VANCE. Senator Pugh of Alabama is chair man of the Committee on Judiciary. His ton, H. L. Pugh, was immedi ately named as clerk to that commit tee.’ The salary is $2,200. James Pugh, another son of the Senator, is Assistant Prosecuting Attorney for the District of Columbia. Politically speaking, the Pugh family seem to be well provided for. Senator Jones of Arkansas, fol lowing the fashion of his colleagues, appointed his son, James K. Jones, Jr., clerk to the Committee on In dian Affairs. Senator Morgan of Alabama is the present chairman of the Corhmittee on Foreign Relations, but he has not forgotten his domestic relations, and seems disposed to do his duty by them. Senator Morgan’s son, George W. Morgan, is clerk to the Commit tee on Foreign Relations. His labors are rewarded by the sum of 82,220. Senator Vance of North Carolina was appointed by Mr. Stevenson chairman of the Committee on Pri vileges and Elections, and he at once exercised one of his privileges by making his son, Charles N. Vance, clerk to the committee at 82,220 per annum. Senator Ransom of North Carolina exercised the same paternal foresight. He -was chairman of the Committee on Commerce. His son, George E. Ransom, was at once appointed its nominal clerk—salary 82,220- Senator Harris of Tennessee be came chairman of the Committee on District of Columbia. Ask for the clerk and—if you can find him—he will be C. H. Harris, the Senator’s son, salary 82,220. Senator George of Mississippi is chairman of Agriculture and Fores try. He seems not to have had a relative available for the clerkship nearer than a grandson, and so J. G. Hemingway, grandson of Senator George, got it. His salary is 82,220 per year. NEW SENATORS DOING WELL. Senator Pasco of Florida has not escaped the contagion. He has only been in the Senate a short time, but his son, W. D. Pasco, is already an assistant clerk there—salary 81,440. Senator Gordon of Georgia is chairman of the Committee on Coast Defenses. H. H. Gordon, his son, has received the appointment of clerk at the annual salary, 82,220. Senator Butler of South Carolina is chairman of the Committee on In ternate Commerce. His nephew, Carroll Brooks, consented to “fill the bill” and receive the salary of 82,220 a year. Mr. Cleveland’s intimate friend, Roger Q. Mills of Texas is chairman of the Committee on Library. His son, C. H. Mills, within a few days after inauguration was appointed clerk. The stereotyped 82,220 per PEOPLE’S PARTY PAPER. ATLANTA. GEORGIA, FRIDAY, JULY 7 1893. annum appears with his name on the payroll. The messenger of this committee, whose pay is 81,440 a year, acts as stenographer and typewriter and does all the work. Senator Palmer, the Democratic veteran of Illinois, having no son available, appointed his daughter clerk to the Committee on Pensions, just to keep it ifi the family. A 12-YEAR-OLD BOY APPOINTED. Senator Colquitt of Georgia is chairman of the Committee on Post Offices and Post Roads. He has only been in the Senate since 1883. His eldest son was but a babe when his father was elected, but has grown to be a successful candidate for office. Master W. T. Colquitt, son of Sena tor Colquitt, a lad of 12-years, holds the position of messenger to the Com mittee on Post Offices and Post roads at a salary of 81,440 per annum. A political atmosphere develops won derful precocity. Senator Blackburn of Kentucky has only occupied a seat in the Sen ate since 1885. He is an infant in senatorial years. The new regime gave to Senator Blackburn the chair manship of the committee on Rules. Mr. Joseph Blackburn, Jr., his son, was appointed clerk to the committee instanter. Joseph, Jr., draws 82,220 per annum from Uncle Sam’s coffers. As a representative of the People’s party Senator Peffer of Kansas is doing extremely well. Miss Nellie M. Peffer is assistant clerk to the Examining Committee. The old reliable 81,440 is the reward of her services. Mr. William A. Peffer, Jr. as messenger to the same committee, matches his sister with another 81,- 440. The united resources of the Peffer family make quite a neat bank account. If a list of the private sec retaries were published it would cre ate a sensation. The wives and daughters of Senators have drawn 86 per day in many instances and the equivalent rendered would not be termed skilled labor. Senators who in debate oppose private clerks per mit members of their families to draw generous sums for nominal services. From an Alabama Brother. Editor People’s Partv Paper : I have been reading the National Watchman. It is one of the best little papers I ever saw, but not big enough to satisfy a healthy People’s party man. I want more of the same sort of .political gospel, so I enclose a dollar for your paper. The reform movement is on a boom in this county. People are not satisfied with the present conditions. Some of our people are not far from actual suffering, and no promise of better times. Fair elections are denied us under our infamous election law—-enacted to prevent a free ballot and a fair ount. Kolb, the majority candidate, is counted .out, and Jones, minority candidate, is counted m—and all done in the name of dear old Democracy. The Alliance is neither dead nor dying out here. New members are joining the order and stragglers coming back at every meeting. I want to be one of twenty thous and to contribute a dollar each to keep Tom Watson at Washington the next four years, for the sole purpose of telling us through his paper the truth about what is going on. lam sure it will be a good investment. Yours for the right, Coloma, Ala. Jesse Pope. Grand Rally. The Haralson County Alliance will meet July 22, at the ford of the creek, three miles nortwest of Talla poosa, on the Jacksonville and Tal lapoosa road, half mile from the Mcßride bridge on the Tallapoosa river. G. W. McGarity, district lecturer, and M. D. Irwin, editor of the*Zw ing Issues, will be there, and other speakers are expected. If any speaker desiring to come will drop me a card, stating when they will be at '.Tallapoosa, I will meet him and convey him to the place of meeting free of charge. All are invited—the Farmers’AHi anceman, the Alliance Democrat, the Jeffersonian Democrat, the Moss back Democrat, the Republican and the People’s partyite, one and all. All are invited to bring well-filled baskets, so that we may have a feast of body as well as soul. J. R. Ballew, President Haralson County Farmers’ Alliance and Industrial Union. Living Issues please copy. To County Secretaries. You will, immediately after the election of your delegate to the State Farmers’ Alliance, sign and send his credentials to the undersigned. You will also have all dues and fees with the State Alliance paid up so the committee on credentials can report the name of your delegate to the convention. Let us have a harmonious and a working body. Yours fraternally, W. B. McDaniel, Chairman Committee on Credentials, Gundee, Ga. Vanderbilt’s Game Preserves. Ashville, N. C., June 21. Geo- W. Vanderbilt has just concluded the purchase of 20,000 acres of land in the “pink beds” section of Hen son and Transylania counties, in this State. The purpose of the purchase is to make one of the finest game pre serves in the -world. Game-keepers are already in charge of the prop erty and every farm-house on the estate has been • torn down. The property is only a few miles from the Vanderbilt residence here. PEOPLE’S PARTY PLATFORM. Adopted at the Omaha Conference of Laboring People, July 4, 1892. Assembled upon the one hundred and sixteenth anniversary of the declaration of independence, the People’s party of America, in their first national conven tion, invoking upon their action the blessing of Almighty God, puts forth in the name and on behalf of the people of this country, the following preamble and declaration of principles : The conditions which surround us best justify our co-operation. We meet in the midst of a nation brought to the verge of moral, political and material ruin. Corruption dominates the ballot box, the legislatures, the congress, and touches even the ermine of the bench. The people are demoralized. Most of the States have been compelled to isolate the voters at the polling places to pre vent universal intimidation or bribery. The newspapers are largely subsidized or muzzled, public opinion silenced, busi ness prostrated, our homes covered with mortgages, labor impoverished, and the land concentrating in the hands of the capitalists. The urban workmen are de nied the right of organization for self protection ; imported pauperized labor beats down their wages ; a hireling standing army, unrecognized by our laws, is established to shoot them down, and they are rapidly degenerating into European conditions. The fruits of the toil of millions are boldly stolen to build up collossal fortunes for a few, unprece dented in the history of mankind, and the possessors of these, ia turn, despise the republic and endanger liberty. From the same prolific mode of governmental injustice we breed the two great clas ses—tramps and millionaires. The national power to create money is appropriated to enrich bondholders. A vast public debt payable in legal tender currency has been funded into gold bearing bonds, thereby adding millions to the burdens of the people. the old parties arraigned. Silver, which has been accepted as coin since the dawn of history, has been demonetized to add to the purchasing power of gold by decreasing the value of all forms of property, as well as humaij labor, and the supply of currency is pur posely abridged to fatten usurers, bank rupt enterprises and enslave industry. A vast conspiracy against mankind has been organized on two continents and is rapidly taking possession of the world. If not met and overthrown at once it forebodes terrible social convulsions, the destruction of civilization, or the estab lishment of an absolute despotism. We have witnessed for more than a century the struggles of the two great political parties for power and plunder, while grievous wrongs have been in flicted upon the suffering people. We charge that the controlling influences dominating both these parties have per mitted the exising dreadful conditions to develop without, serious effort to prevent or restrain them. Neither do they now promise us any substantial reform. They have agreed together to ignore in the coming campaign every issue but one. They propose to drown the outcries of plundered people with the uproar of a sham battle over the trriff, so that capi talists, corporations, national banks, rings, trusts, watered stock, the demone tization of silver and the oppressions of the usurers may all be lost sight of. They propose to sacrifice our homes, wives and children on the altar of Mam mon ; to destroy the multitude in order to secure corruption funds from the mil lionaires. Assembled on she anniversary of the birthday of the nation, and filled with 'the spirit of the grand generation who established ; our independence, we seek to restore the government of the republic to the hands of “the plain people,” with which class it originated. THE WAR IS OVER. We assert our purposes to be identical with the purposes of the national con stitution— “To form a more perfect union, establish ijustice, insure domes tic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty for ourselves and our posterity.” We de clare 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 cannot be pinned together by bayonets ; that 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 of freemen. Our country finds itself confronted by conditions for which there is no prece dent 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 exchanged for billions of dollars of com modities consumed in their production ; the existing currency supply is wholly inadequate to make this exchange ; the results are falling prices, the formation of combines and rings and the impov erishment of the producing classes. 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 believe that the powers of govern ment—in other words, of the people should be expanded (as in the case the postal service) as rapidly and as far as the good sense of an intelligent people and the teachings of experience sbail justify, to the end that oppression, injustice and poverty shall eventually cease in the land. THREEFOLD DECLARATION. While our sympaties as a party of re form are naturally upon the side of every proposition which will tend to make men intelligent, virtuous and tem perate, we nevertheless regard these questions, important as they are, as secondary to the great issues now pres sing for solution, and upon which not only our individual prosperity but the very existence of free institutions de pend ; and we ask all men to first help us to determine whether we are to have a republic to administer before we differ as to the conditions upon which it is to be administered, believing that the forces of reform this day organized will never cease to move forward until every wrong is remedied and equal rights and equal privileges securely established for all tne men and women of the country. We declare, therefore— 1. That the union of the labor forces of the United States this day consum mated, shall be permanent and per petual. May its spirit enter into all hearts for the salvation of the republic and the uplifting of mankind. 2. Wealth belongs to him who creates it. and every dollar taken from industry without an eqivalent is robbery. “If any will not work, neither shall he eat.” The interests of rural and civic labor are the same ; their enemies are identical. 3. We believe that the time has come when the railroad corporations will either own the people or the people must own them, and should the government enter upon + he work of owning and managing any or all railroads we should favor an amendment to the constitution by which all persons engaged in the government service shall be placed un der a civil service regulation of the most rigid character, so as to prevent the in crease of the power of national - admin istration by the use of such additional government employes. platform planks. 1. 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 without the use of banking cor- a just, equitable and efficient means of distribution, direct to the peo ple, at a tax not exceeding 2 per cent, be provided, as set forth in the subtreasury plan of the Farmers’ Alliance, or some better system ; also by payments in dis charge of its obligations for public im provements. a. We demand free and unlimited coinage of silver and gold at the present legal ratio of 16 to 1. b. We demand that the amount of cir culating medium be speedily increased to not less than soo per capita. c. We demand a graduated income tax. d. We believe that the money of the country should be kept as much as pos sible in the- hands of the people, and hence we demand that all State and national revenue shall be limited to the necessary expenses of the government, economically and honestly administered. We demand that postal savings bank" be established by the government f'lr tho safe deposit of th®. earnings of tit p eople and to facilitate exchange. 5. Transportation beffig a means of change and a public necessity, the gov ernment should own a. * operate the railroads in the interest of the people. а. The telegraph and telephone, like the post-office system, bein& a necessity for the transportation of news, should be owned and operated in by the govern ment in the interest of the people. 3. The land, including all the national resources of wealth, is the heritage of all the people, and should not be monopo lized for speculative purposes, and alien ownership of land should be prohibited. All land now held by railroads and other corporations in excess of their actual needs, and all lands now owned by aliens, should be reclaimed by the government and held for actual settlers only. SUPPLeMENT TO THE PLATFORM. "Whereas other questions have been presented for our consideration, we here by submit the following, not as a part of the platform of the People’s party, but as resolutions expressive of the senti ment of this convention : 1. Resolved, That we demand a free ballot 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, 2. 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 domes tic industries of this country. 3. Resolved. That we pledge our sup port to fair and liberal pensions to ex- Union soldiers and sailors. 4. Resolved, That we condemn the fallacy of protecting American labor un der the present system, which opens our ports to the pauper and criminal classes of the world, and crowds out our wage earners ; and we denounce the present ineffective laws against contract labor, and demand the further restriction of undesirable immigration. 5. Resolved, That we cordially sympa thize with the efforts of organized work ingmen to shorten the the hours of labor and demand a rigid enforcement of the existing eight-hour law on government work, and ask that a penalty, clause be added to the said law. б. Resolved, That we regard the main tenance of a large standing army of mercenaries, known as the Pinkerton system as a menace to our liberties, and we demand its abolition ; and we con demn the recent ihvasion of the terri tory of Wyoming by the hiered assassins of plutocracy, assisted by Federal of ficials. 7. Resolved, That we commend to the favorable consideration of the people and the reform press the legislative sys tem known as the initiative and referen dum. 8. 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. 9. Resolved, That we oppose any sub sidy or national aid to any private cor poration for any purpose.
