Brad A atson
Brad Watson is perhaps the best
known merchant of Waycross. He
can well be called the Merchant Prince
■of the Magic City.
A few years ago this young man
was a common salesman for Frank
Owens. Later ho formed a partner
ship with Owens and opened a small
stock of dry goods. By thrift, economy
and advertising he soon built up an
•extensive business and bought out
Owens' interest in the business. The
business continued to grow and is now
one of the biggest and busiest dry
goods and shoe stores in Waycros-.
Mr Watson knows how to buy goods,
how to display them in liis store and
liow to advertise them in a way to get
people to visit his store. Besides the
goods sold over his counters he does
an extensive mail oder business.
The editor of the Breeze knows Mr.
Watson and unhesitatingly recom
mends him to the good people of Cof
fee county.
BRANTLEY'Sggpjj
Hi Scores the Fifl
and I
Monday was a
cy.
Besides being
iuation of a county ticßl
were circulated throughout the county
announcing that Congressman W. G.
Brantley would make the opening
speech of his campaign here.
Hon. Robert G. Dickerson, candi
date for senator from this district was
also invited. The crowd assembled in
the courthouse at 11 o’clock and Mr.
Dickerson was introduced by Sir. W.
W. McDonald. Mr. Dickerson, al
though iu feeble health, acquitted
himself nobly, and won many warm
friends by his plain, fearless and fer
vent address.
At the conclusion of his speech
Judge F. Willis Dart arose and in a j
few well chosen remarks introduced
Congressman Brantley.
% aj
Mr. Brantley’s speech was largely
devoted to discussing the claims made
by the republicans and in showing to
the populists that the democratic par
ty offered them everything they could
expect the republicans to give.
He told the populists that he advo
cated the tariff duty on Egyptian cot
ton on every stump during the cam
paign two years ago, and that the re
publicans have “stolen his thunder”
by advocating the measure. The pop
ulists, he says are advised by the ac
tion of the party convention last Sat
urday in endorsing Wilkinson, the re
publican nominee, to vote for the re
publican standard bearer. They are
told that a tariff duty on Egyptian
cottoD would be secured by Mr. Wil
kinson. A number of associations
were formed two years ago in the dis
trict in favor of the cotton tariff. A
committee went to Washington and
laid the claims of the growers before
the republican rtjlei's, and instead of
getting a duty fixed they learned that
the republicans had taken tics and
bagging for cotton from the free list
and imposed a duty upon them.
For the republicans to pretend
friendship for the south in the matter
of protecting southern industries,
Mr. Brantley says, is absurd, for the
south can never expect any benefits
from the republican party. The pop
ulists can expect no relief from the re
publican administration, and still the
fusion with the republicans gives the
public to understand that they do ex
pact fairness from the common politi,
cal enemy of the south. Mr. Brantley
says he would advise the populists to
stick to their own party and preserve
their good name rather than barter
body and sou! to the republicans and
affiliate politically with a party whose i
local support is largely from the black i
race. He expresses surprise at the ut-1
ter disregard of consistency manifest- j
ed by she populist party in the district
in fusing with the republicans.
The democratic platf, r n embraces
the most cherished planks of the p>p
ulist platform, including free silver, a
tariff tor revenue equitably and econ- j
omienliy distributed. The pi j ulistg
can hope to g iia something from lbs
democratic party if they have faith in j
their former demands and ideas ; and j
should not their poll'd oil bosses preju- j
dice them against their own interests, i
The populist republican deal is a bold
one. intended to mislead the disbeart-j
ened populist, it wtil fail entirely in
its purposes no doubt, t >r the people of
the eleventh district who vo‘e intelli
gently according to their honest con
victions will predominate at the polls.
