The fusion populists np in Kansas are
abandoning Bryan by thousands and
going ever to Barker and Donnelly.
The populists of Idaho hare repudiat
ed the fusion with the democrats end
put ont a straight state ticket headed
by Barker and Donnelly electors.
Col. M. W. Howard, the great Popu
list orator of Alabama, has just finished
a tour of the state of Nebraska, speak
ing in most of the counties. The
straight populists of Nebraska are well
organized all over the state and Barker
and Donnelly are gaining vote? by the
thousand every week. The fusion pops
and democrats have given np the fight
there and becoming demoralized.
Ben Tillman in a speech in Illinois
last week declared that Lincoln was a
better Democrat than Jefferson Davis,
and Bryan a better Republican than
McKmly. A democrat can say any
thing and it will be endorsed by the
party. If a populist speaker had assert
ed this on the stump or any whore else,
he weald hav.> been accused of treason
to the south. What aboat Southern
sentiment of which we have heard so
much?
If populism was right eight years ago
it is still right* Tf democracy was
wrong and against tne rights of the
masses eight years ago, it is still in the
same boit. The party has done noth
ing to cause a populist to surrender his
principles and go back to democracy.
Populism is not dead and will aever
d ; e as long as patriotism lives. If it
shonld die, however, we had rather die
with it than be a traitor to onr consc .
ence and retrograde.
The National Committee of the dem
ocratic party sent Jas. B. Weaver
into Indiana week before last to try
and deceive the genuine populists there
and get them to support Bryan and
Stevenson. Judge Williams, one of the
ablest orators and speakers of Indiana,
and a straight populist, goi so hot on
the trail of the old renegade, Weaver,
that he ran him out of the state before
he had filled one-third of bis appoint
ments. Judge Williams followed him
at three appointments and exposed him
so completely that at his fourth ap
pointment he only spoke fifteen min
utes—got on the train and l't for a
more congenial clime.
An Industrial Paradox.
There are more doctors being turned
out than can secure patients.
There are more lawyers graduating
than there are clients.
There are more book-keepers, stenog
raphers and type-writers qualifying
than there are positions for.
There are more mechanics, engineers
and electricians than there are places to
fill.
There are more laborers than there
are holes to dig.
There are too many farmers produc
ing too much to eat.
There is more clothing produced than
the people oan well wear out.
There is an over-prod action every
where.
Yet thousands die for the want of
medical care.
Men loose their hemes because too
poor to pay lawyer fees.
Men die for want of things to eat
that the farmers produce.
Some freeze to death because they
have no money to buy clothing to pro
tect their bodies fiom the winter’s
blasts.
Yet there is an over-production every
where, and enough for the poor no
where —Baltimore Labor Advocate.
The Atlanta Journal, one of the
Street Railway monopoly organs of that
city, announces with a good deal of self
satisfaction that the Populists have
made their last fight in Georgia. If so,
the Atlanta Ring can prosecute its spoli
ation of the tax payers with impunity,
unmolested and nnawed with none to
hinder or make afraid. But is the Jour
nal correct in its conclusion? Two years
ago, it will be remembered, the Atlanta
Constitution, the other great Street
Railway monopoly organ of that city,
after it had scuttled the Peoples party
organization, as it thought, made the
very same prediction. But so long as
any considerable nnmber o people in the
State object to Ring rule, object to the
unbridled sway of a few self-constituted
bosses, object to high and unneoes:*
ary taxation, there wil lbe opposition
to the paity that tolerates these abases
no matter what name or form it takes,
The Peoples party is founded on correct
principles, founded on principles which
every intelligent man knows will best
conserve the interests of the masses of
the people who produce the wealth and
pay the tuxes. That a majority of those
who vote, both white and black, can be
c mtrolled and voted against their own
interests by designing men of superior
advantages and intelligence, is not to be
wondered at, yet it affords r? excuse for
the true reformer, no excuse for the man
who is devoting his life to the cause of
humanity, to cease his efforts in the
good work, however much the selfish
ness of greed may be amazed at his ob
stinacy. The time will come when the
work of the honest, intelligent reformer
will be recognized and appreciated.—
Dalton Herald.
Planter does Receive
a Premium.
Ia an article piinted in Southern pa
pers and pail for by the compress inter
est, the statement is made that the
A mericau Cotton Company “has
both the planter and the spinner bon
uses” to extend the use of the rouudlap
bale. This reluctant admission by the
compressmen that the use of the rouud
lap bale is profitable to planters and spin
ners is not an exact statement of fact.
The planter does receive premium for his
cotton in ronndlap ba'es, not as a bonus,
bat becaase his cotton in these bales is
worth more to any buyer than in any
other package. In like manner, the
spinner’s profit from the use of round
lap bales comes from the economies they
enable him to make. The farmer cares
little who pays the premium which his
ronndlap bales oommand. What inter
ests him is that they bring him more
money, and with his profit in bis pock
et he is not deceived by the misrepresen
tations of men who, while affecting ten
der solicitude for his welfare, have
only their own selfish purposes to
serve.
Death of Wm. M. Smith.
Mr. Wm. M. Smith, of near Pender
grass, deid first of last week at an ad
vanced age. Mr. Smith was commonly
known as ‘•Cotton Billy Smith,” to dis
tinguish him from others of the same
name, was one of the leading citizens of
Cunningham's district, and during his
active life, one of its cuccessful farmers
and large cotton raisers. He had been
our warm personal friend for years and
we were saddened when we heard of |
his death.

QUESTION ANSWERED.
Yea, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the civ
ilized world, Your mothers’ and grand
mothers’ never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilionsness.
Doctors were scarce, and they seldom
heard of Appendicitis, Nervous Prostra
tion or Heart failure, etc. They used
August Flower to clean out the system
and stop fermentation of undigested
food, regulate the action of the liver,
stimulate the nervous and organic ac
tion of the system, and that is all they
took wheu feeling dull and bad with
headaches and other aches. You only
need a few doses of Green’s August
Flower, iu liguid form, to make you
satisfied there is nothiag serious the
matter with you. BampleJ bottles at
