PEOPLE’S PARTY PAPER ATLANTA, GA., NOVEMBER 1, 1895.
WITH CHANDLER.
HANY THINK THE TRAFFIC
ASSOCIATION ILLEGAL.
IT WILL RAISE THE RATES
Fear Thai the Result Will be the
Increasing of The Prices of
Food and Fuel.
Senator Chandler’s letters to the
President and the Interstate Com
merce Commission, denouncing in his
usual vigorous manner the organiza
don of the Joint Traffic A-socia ion,
he new combination of the Trunk
Line and Western Traffic railroads,
have attracted considerable attention
in railroad and fitanciil circles gen
erally, and the outcome is looked for
with much interest.
Many people agree with the New
Hampshire Senator when he sajs
that the agreement is agigantij trust
and plainly contrary to )a
INDORSES JIB. CHANDLER.
One of these men said yesterday
that he indorsed Mr. Chandler when
he said, in his letter to the Interstate
Commerce Commission :
“Nine great railroads from the
West to the seaboard are to be per
mitted to consolidate their business ;
to abolish competiti n by their own
Agreements; to submit the rate-mak
mg power to nine governors; to
enforce their huge pooling contract
by a clearing h >use and money pen
alties, and to establish, in ■ efiance of
law, the most stupendous trust the
world has ever seen.”
The Interstate Commerce Law,
this nun said, forbade railroads pool
ing their interests, and the trust, it
seemed to him, was pliinly contrary
to the act. He didn’t see how the
railroad managers could get around
the wording of the statute.
ANOTHER THINKS THE SAME.
Another man who • as of the same
opinion said he had no doubt tha
the pool was formed to raise rates,
although the presidents gave out tha
it was only to maintain them, and
this, as Mr. Chandler has pointed out
in his letter to the President, would
have the iffectcf raising the prices
of food and fuel. He was of one
mind with the Senator, and though l ,
the combination should not be al
lowed.
THINKS IT IS A BLUFF.
‘■Think of the ternendous power
these roads will have I” he exclai med.
“Absolute control over all freight
and passenger traffic from the sea
board to the West. Everyone must
see that the sole object is to rais
rates. And the aggregate amount of
capital, $3,000,000,000 —think what
power that has. I have no more
patience than Mr. Chandler has with
Interstate Commissioner Knapp for
saj ing that the matter was not one
of which the commission could take
cognizance. The statement in the
agreement tint it was to aid in p'e
venting violations of the law I be
lieve to be nothing but a bluff.”
The President’s Opportunity.
It seen s to us that Jlr. Clevelind
is neglecting the most potent agency
of conversion in this dnaucial coatro-
I versy that he has ever had or is
ever likely to have at his disposal.
The literature sent out by the “sound
currency committee of the Reform
Club” is well enough in its way. It
gives John De Witt Warner and a
few more cuckoos an opportunity for
twitter and furnishes oecupa.ion for
all the cartoonists who can’t get an
opening in the comic papers. But
it doesn’t persuade anjbody. And
no wonder. The pamphlets are
amusing. They take the place of
the old fashi >ned almanacs, with
their cheap jokes and their still
cheaper pictures. The silver men
give then to the children to play
with, and the free coinage “craze”
flows on as tempestuou-ly as ever.
And yet all this lime Mr. C eveland
has ready to his hand a machinery
of conversion which has been tried
with great success and which, if he
would but use it vigorously, mighf
even yet bring the whote Nation into
the anointed fold.
We refer to the Cabinet. Look
how the Cabinet has worked in the
cases of three distinguished and in
fluential gentlemen who were once
in the front rink of silver’s most
brilliant and effective champions.
Look, in a word, at Messrs. Carlisle,
Herbert and Hoke Smith. How
long did it take the atmosphere of
the Cabinet to purge them of all their
schisms and transform three silver
men of high degree into as many
gold bugs of purest ray serene ?
How long ? Why, hot three weeks.
Within a month they had begun to
look with pity upon the errors of
their former coadjutors. Within a
month they began to weep over the
contumacy of Vest, Morgan, Cock
rell, Harris, Pugh and all the rest of
them. And by the time the Fifty
third Congress met in extra session
in 1893 they had become veterans
in monometallism. They spoke as
patriarchs, as life long leaders of
the gold crusade. In zeal, devotion,
ind enthusiasm they overshadowed
the Cnief himself, and beside the
fierce light of their conviction the
dickering fires of Fairchild and the
rest looked like tallow dips. Gold
never had real champions—real fight
ing, indomitable, cavorting and foam
ing-at the-mouth champions —until
Carlisle, Herbert and Hoke Smith
got fully under the influence of that
Cabinet atmosphere and showed the
world what genuine fervor means.
What bewilders us is that Mr.
Cleveland, with such tremendous
agencies at his command, is consent
to stop at the conversion of these
three. He is unquestionably sincere
in his financial attitude—unquestion
ably anxious to save the credit and
secure the welfare of the country by
planting it permanently and immov
ably upon the gold standard platform.
Why then, having converted three
powerful silver advocates so effectu
ally and so expeditiously, does he
u it go ahead and convert the others
iu the same way? Let him dismiss
his present Cabinet and take in in
stead Vet, Jones, Stewart, Wa!cot r ,
Morgan, Cockrell, Bland and Harris.
In two months at the outside they
would be busily at work evangeliz
ing Missouri, Alabima, Tennessee,
Colorado anl Nevada. Then he
jould shut the department doors on
them and send for Teller, Peffer,
Pugh, Allen, Harvey, Cameroi,
B ackburn and Bryan, and so on.
How long would it take at this rate
to transform every one of the free
coinage crators into an apostle of
mometallism? Mr. Cleveland has
still some eighteen months in which
he can work the Cabinet trick and
the hypnotic atmosphere. By the
end of that time, counting those ac
tually treated and those converted
beforehand in expectation of treat
ment, how many silver leaders would
be left? Why, they could be count
ed on the fingers of tbe armless man
at the museum. They would have
vanished utterly. Vest would em
brace Carlisle, and Bland Hoke
Smith, and Stewart his erstwhile
bitterest foe, and with arms affec
tionately interlocked and in most
harmonious unison they would give
us “Comrades” till the welkin swoon
ed for joy.
There is good reason to believe
that Senator Gorman is thoroughly
frightened at the political situation in
Maryland. He has made appeals to
Democrats in other States to aid him,
and has invoked the assistance of the
Administration and of its leading
supporters. His fears are well foun
ded. The fight which is being made
against him by a powerful and nu
merous contingent, in his own party,
headed by the Baltimore Sun, which
is the leading Democratic organ of
the State, is so relentless and well
organ zed as to alarm even the most
seifish of politicians, especially when
the splendid Republican organization
a, d attractive personality of the Re
publican candidate are taken into
consideration. Gorman unquestion
ably is making the fight of his life,
just as Quay made the fight of hie
life in Pennsylvania, and as Brice is
doing in Ohio. There never has
been so marked a revolt in Maryland
as now, and Gorman realizes the
desperate condition of his fortunes.
Mr. Gorman seeks to make it ap
pear that the fate of the Democratic
par y in Maryland is at stake.
Whether he is correct or not, it is
oeitdu that his domination in the
S ate is the issue. The contest has
been made on local lines ; but the at
tempt is now being made to nation-
alize it. Mr. Gorman has shown his
appreciation of the desperate condi
tion of his fortune by calling in out
side Democrats of national reputa’ion
to help change tbe campaign. Sen
ator Gray of Delaware and Senator
Faulkner of West Virginia, one a free
trader, the other a protectionist, ap
peared in Baltimore at the formal
opening of thd campaign. Senator
Gray is not friendly to Gorman, but,
much as he dislikes him, he-is unwil
ling to allow his personal feeling to
interfere with his political duty, and
he consented therefore to go to Bal
timore and try to raise the campaign
out of the rut of defeat into which
apparently it has fallen.— Washing
ton correspondent, Cleveland World.

The executive committee of the
people’s party met in Warrenton
last week and decided to contest
Major Black’s election. Mr. Har
rison, a populist who was present, is
reported as saying that it was done
to keep the paity alive.—Ellijay
Courier.
Just so brother, and you are going
to see some of the livest populism
and, sickest democracy before this
contest business is over that is to be
found on the Continent. There are
two ways of keeping a party alive
in this country. One is the Demo
cratic method of stealing an election
and he other is the Populist way of
appealing to the law to force the
thieves to deliver up the stolen
goods. And we are going to do it.
