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. Statement City Council August and September September 25, 1900. ASSETTS.

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 Winder Drug Cos. COME! COME!!
