ATftSKS P *NN®R * TUESDAY MQENING APRIL », im HE IS MYSTIFIED. A TALK WITH A PROMINENT ALU* ancbmanop this county. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE’S Action endorsed—He Can’t Under* Stand Why i Georgia’s Leadings Aiiiancemen Couli not Ac* ceptthe SL Louis Plat* _ form if It was Sound —An Ocala Alliance* Democrat*. A HASTY RETREAT- THE JOINT DEBATE AT DOUGLAS V1LLE DIDN’T COME OFF. ‘MR. POST RETREATED ston'a Fire—He was Bold Enough to ChaUenge but Didn’t Have the Courage to Face hit Opponent. — Yesterday a Banner reporter talked ■with oneof the most prominent Alii ancemen in all this section of country, aud the conversation was relative to the political situation of the day. He is an bon rod member of the Al'iacoe, and a .nan of considerable influence. Therefore, his views will be of interest to the public just at this time. Hu said that the action of the State Executive Committee in Atlanta \V< daesday night was on the right line, ami will receive the hearty oommenda tion of true Aiiiancemen. The All!*, ance is a non-partisan organization, and cannot constitutionally adopt reso lutions pledging support to the Third party or any other political body, “Why,” said he; "I have been surprised a 1 the while at the sub-Alii antes parsing resolutions endorsing and pledging their support to the Third party. It is clearly against the constit ution of the organization, and that in strument is worded so plainly that it need not be misinterpreted.” When asked if he thought that the Aiiiancemen of this district would go into the Third party, he eaid: “I am an Ccala-Allisnce-Demooral myself, and believe in lighting our bat tles in the Democratic ranks. I am mystified about that St. Louis platform any way. The leading Aiiiancemen of Georgia—men who have the confide! c aud esteem of their constituents—Liv ingston and Mo3es—say that the S’. Louis pla'form will not do, and I feel p rfe-.tly safe in following their 1 d I till you my honest opinion ie tl a t 1 at ii famous twelf h plank is in the St. Lous platform Until proven to the contrary, I shall continue to be lieve it. Whether it was adopted as a resolution as the politicians claim or putinas a plank mikes very little difference in my estimation. The plat form, as 1 understand it, was read and a W pted by sections; then adopted as a whole. With the present lights Defer- lie, 1 can conceive of it being imtUing but a bid for the vote of the Union soldiers. ‘•That was a great game the politi cians tried to get off in Atlanta a few w;e<Ua aeo, providing for paying ex- 'slave holders for their slaves It* was g‘ tt«fn up to capture the Southern vote, lint eveiyboily kno«.s that the 8t L uis platform is the one on which the 'l in'd party stands pit dgeci to place it cai didates, and no pr< vision is made in it for such a measure. “ another thing about that St. Louis platform is the government owning of railr ads. Now, we do rt want auything like that. It is relief that the Alliance is seeking, and I can’t see wuere that can be obtained by the gov- e muent m mopolizingjthe railroad bus- ’ incss. “Aco’ber fact, the St. Louis platform does m t contain one of the strongest demands of the Ocala platform. For these reasons I wUl answer yon that it is my candid f pinion that the Alliance- men of this section will not adhere to the St. L^nis platform or the Third party. If Democracy covers the Ocala platform in the Democratic platform the Third party will get a black eye throughout the South. I think it is safe to say that the Alliance of Georgia is composi d by a good majority of Ocala- Alliance Democrats.” Colonel Livingston tn^ped his c im- J paign with Judge Stewart and and bis allegiance to the Democracy that elec- | ted him. ‘ They tell you lhat I went back on the A.llacce when I v^ted for Speaker Crisp. Every candidate was a Dcmc- rorat. Mr. Crisp was for Iree silver and Rather Than Stand Under Col. Living-1 wa8 c,ose9t to the demands of my peo ple. He was a Georgian, and it will be the last dsy of my life when I desert Georgia.” (Applause) He showed that be had been consis tent in his political career from begin ning to end. m “I thought yon were to have a man named Post here today. I sent word to him that 1 should divide time with him on the stamp. Where is he?” “He’s been here, but he’s gone,’’shout ed a dozed voices. Well, let him go. We won’t mis3 him much. (Laughter.) I would like to get a whack at him, though.” He went to attack the character of Post, saying it was a mistake for the Third party men to fancy the Lord was with them in this movement. If- God had been with them they would not have as a leader an atbeistio men who believes in spiritualism. The Colonel told again t f the S’. Lyris convention and its heUrogenious makeup. He said the pension plank was certainly in |their platform, and again read the letters he has from lead ers who helped to frame the pi itform, Dotir.LABvn.Mc, Ga., April 14.—The joint debate at Douglasvllle yesterday didn’t come off. The leader of the Third party in Georgia, Col. C. C. Post, was bold enough to challenge Hon. L. F. Living ston, but when Livingston eame down loaded to tlie muzzle and ready for work, Mr. Post withdrew from the lists. It being Col. Livingston’s appoint ment, as a matter of course he bad Ihe right to the opening and conclusion There was a large crowd present, but when the time came for the debate,Col. Post objected to the division of time and withdrew on this flimsy excuse. His movement was fo’lowed by a small portion of the crowd who retired to a warehouse a short distance away and held a speaking of their own. NOTES FftOM ABROAD. The Mott Important Happenings of a 1>ht to Other Land*. London. April 14.—Six hundred work men hove l>eeu discharged from the establishment of Lindoret Tin Plate company, the oldest and largest works of the kind in South Wales. The action was due to the depression in trade, re sulting from the opperation of the Mc Kinley tariff laws. The Landoret com pany have hitherto been notable for keeping their forces at work-when other employers-in trade had stopped opera tions. Tin plate is now paralyzed throughout South Wales and every week numerous tin plate workmen for merly employed in the factories in that region are immigrating to the United States. n A FOREIGN BATCH.

Rome, April 14.—Owing to the differ ence that arose at the last three cabinet councils over the financial measures to be submitted to the parliament the wliole ministry h ive tendered their res ignations to King Humbert and they were accepted. Tiie king has charged Marquis DeRudini, the prime miuister to reconstruct a cabinet. No change in the ministerial program is expected, ex cept that tlie Marquis DeRudini pro poses to insist more strongly upon the government’s financial proposals. The Democrats, retaining a gr -at ma jority of the orowd cheered, lustily as I showing tbatit was there. Col. Livingston arose to speak! _ “I understand,” ha said, “that they Holdiog'upOn. b..i; ScLr wit-1 Well, it makes no diflerenoe what the ing akimbo—a favorite attitude of the man, and c rtainly a yery striking one —lookingdown squarely into the eyes of his audience with a painfully serious countenance, he said: “My Fellow Georgians—I am sorry that there are men here today who call man’s name, so he’s allright, wbn he getB there. I may go downl but tbertM be no tears shed if 1 do.

The officials of the for eign office stated that nothing is known ns to the reason for his return.

God pity the day when Georgians who have I followed & Toombs, a Stephens, a Hill, I The Proposition, fori an International a Cobb, through exciting times like these; who have braved death for the cause for which Robert E. Lee drew bis mighty sword, shall take to flight fearful to risk their consciences at a dis cussion such as this. (Much applause.) “I have come h8ro to speak at the bid ding of my friends. I have btought with me no venom, no hatred, ho bit terness, no abuse. I am here, my coun trymen, to talk in friendly discourse with you about the great and grave is sues at stake. There ia more involved than al', save discerning men, would believe. Let us go about the discussion of these matters with coolness and sol emn thought, and for the sake of good will among men let us handle them in the language of plainness, of soberness and of truth We have fallen upon strange times, indeed, when brave heart* of Georgia forget so soon the cruel ravages of civil war, their terror and danger, their heartrending consequences, There are men here today who cun recall the viv id, the lurid picture of war on the plain; of devastation and fiendish ruins wrought by republicanism tbronghout our sunny south, once'so fair, so fr< e, so beautiful. (Applause.) “Nobody wants to see those day again. Heaven lend its pity should those days ever return. But while we stand here today thinking these things over with awe and dread take care that we allow no inroad to be opened for Republicanism in this land again. Take care of this.” Coloml LiviDgston then went on to ask forbearance while he dealt with TIIE YOUTHFUL GLEANERS WHi Give one of their Moat Enjoyable Concerts Next Month.
