DESERT YOUR COLORS!
FR AN KLIN COUNTY MEN.
There was a time when few re¬
spcctabie white men were found
outside of the democratic ranks in
Georgia.
The democratic party has been
tbs only respectable political par¬
ty iu the South.
Thesw conditions will exist again
a fp. r election in November.
q u t ]io 5th of October the intel-
au d patriotism of Georgia
will bury the third party iu our
proud old state.
After the NovemKu elections the
ro/ormers will bo too sick in ev-
’ery state of this Union to hold a
Gideonite prayermeeting.
The loyal and liberty-loving cit¬
izen of America will meet Weav¬
er’s little decrepit gang at the bal¬
lot boxes in November. It will not
be the first third party movement
that has been crushed by the free
men of this country. They have
sung the funeral dirge of hair a
score before now.
No secret political movement ha*
ever triumphed on American soi.
or in a free land and never will.
What good, honest man in
Franklin county is ready to desert
t he colors of the old party that has
stood as the bulwark of bis liber¬
ties during all those years, to fol¬
low Weavei, the South-hater, Post,
the republican, and the dema¬
gogue, office-seeking crew that i.-
leading the reform movement in
this country?
How many of you will follow a
man that intuited th® noble
men of the Southern Coufedera.es ?
How many good citizens
Franklin county will desert
own people to follow a republican
hireling who has been sent to
gia to divide the white people
our state.
Why men of Franklin,
thiid party gang offers you a
form that shames your
and insults your intelligence. They
sey that you need “relief” and
do they propose to give it to
By taxing you to buy up ton
lion dollars worth of railroads ; by
taxing the poor people of Georgia
to pay the Union soldiers
000; by dividing out tho
earned homesteads of the farmers;
by robbing many of the white aim
calored of the light to vote; by a
laud loan scheme which would
make of the government a groat
banking establishment, lending
money at two per cent.
If the platform of the
[third party embodied wise,
patriotic and just meas-
1 ures, w hy is it that no American
statesman has yet endorsed it?
Why 1 b it that the men who have
defended tlio constitutional free¬
dom of this country in times of
war and peace, have risen in re¬
volt against the platform of third
party from Maine to Cai forma:
Why is it that only the demagogue
scum of all political parties that
have ever existed in this country
is leading in the reform move¬
ment as office-seekers?
It cannot bo true that Weaver,
Post and their followers represent
the political purity of the Ameri¬
can republic—that there is not an
honest political.leader in thia Un¬
ion outside of the Third party.
Don’t desert Your colors men of
Franklin.
The reformers are whipped, and
what man in Franklin wants to
stand with that crowd in defeat?
Tho third partyites say, “If you
don’t like the election system pro¬
posed in their platform, it will not
be forced 011 you; but be sure and
vote the third party ticket, and
then if you don’t want the Austra¬
lian ballot system, we won’t have
it.” That is the way they argue
all th® way through their platform.
“If you don’t want to buy the rail¬
road®, we won’t do it,” etc. They
thus acknowledge that it ia not
their principles that they are try-'
ing to enact into laws, but the vote
which th® demagogues need, that
they are earnestly working for. If
you are opposed to an election law
that would disfranchise fifty thou¬
sand white and colored men in
Georgia, you will not vote for
third party, which is pledged by
ita platform to such a measure,al-
though its spokesmen declare they
von t force it on you. •*

DON’T DRAG OUR GOOD WO-
MENJ1N T(D THE CAMPAIGN.
The third party bosses of this
county are making a determined
tight on Lewis Davis.
Jarrette hasn’t the ehr.dow of
chance of being elected. Ho
hot be heard of in Habersham
Hart and in order to save
from bmul defeat, they are
ing heaven and earth to
Lewis Davis’ following in
county.
The boss «3 will not succeed.
After scouring around in a fruit¬
less effort to And charges that
could bo brought against the pub¬
lic or private life of Lewis Davis,
the bosses have stooped, and henv-
en pity th® man that couli stoop
so low, to drag the good name of
Lewis Davis’ mother into tile cam¬
paign.
Let these cowards and traitor*
desist. They are treading on dan¬
gerous ground. They arc n>;t. wor¬
thy to breathe the name of Lewis
Davis’ noble mother.
There is pot a right-minded man
on the faceof the earth,that would
not scorn to strike at a man
through a woman.
One of tho latest campaign sto¬
ut the bosses is that Lewis Davis’
mother called the crowd that was
in Toccoa last Saturday to Lear
Pickett and Carter, “‘a trashy, dirty
looking set.” By this slander of
Lewis Davis’ mother the
bosses hope to prejudice the
poor and ignorant people of this
_ounty against Lewis Davis.
We suspect that it was a some¬
what disreputable looking set that
gathered to hear the scalawag,
Iliad Picket, tell thorn how to dis¬
rupt the democratic party.
Let the demagogue democratic
deserters overthrow this free gov¬
ernment of ours, lot them disfran¬
chise and rob our people, but in
the name of everything that it=
high and true, don’t drag our good
women into the campaign.
FORTY CENTS FOR CAMPAIGN
PURPOSES.
1 he part) of political purity held
a meeting at Grots Plains last Sat¬
urday night.
Abner Paul Narcissus Under¬
wood and P. C. Holbrook were the
i orators of tho occasion.
A.bner, Paul Narcissus stated
that he had been traveling exten¬
sively during the last few days,
and if there was anything in the
signs of the times, the third party
was on a boom.
Brother Holbrooks then arose,
discussed the tariff in a statesman¬
like manner, and proceeded to
take up a collection for the benefit
of the state campaign fund. He
stated that it was a poor man’s
party, but that it was their duty
to contribute something and he
was willing to open ais heart and
his purse and give ten cents to help
pay tho expense!' of Wearer, Lease
and Cyclone Davis’ trip through
Georgia; Btovo Payne followed
with teu cents; Blant Brown and
Ralph Brown each contributed ter.
cents, and then the meeting ad¬
journed, and the saints dispersed
to their homes to dream about how
liberal they had been.
The Tribune suggests that an
eye be kept on the treasurer oi
Cross Plains Alliance.
J. C. McCarter in the special
fight he is making on Neal Little,
is.not adhering as strictly to the
truth as honorable men do. Here
is one of the campaign fables that
Sheriff McCarter is telling tho col¬
ored men—that if they vote for
Neal Little on a third party ticket
the whole ticket will be thrown
out. Now there are some very dark
spots in Mr. McCarter’s career h*
an officer and citizen, that it given
to the public would forever blast
hia influence with both white and
colored men of thh county. We
should dislike for several reasons
to expose Mr. McCarter, but if we
hear of any more unfair means
taken by him to defeat democracy
we shall be forced to do it in our
next issue. W e are willing to save
Mr. McCarter, if you will al-
low us, for the sake of an old man
whose memory we have to cherish
who waa rich in human kindness
ant ^ more.than once helped
you ouo of the trouble. But re-
member, there are to be no more
falsehoods circulated by you
against our democratic candidates,
\ou seek office and seek to lead
tbe people, aud under these condi-
tions, your record is the property
the public
THEY CAME, THEY SAW
AND THEY FLED.
The third party circus,
by Weaver, the South-hater,
the Kansas statesman,
fled from Georgia in disgust,
the campaigning tour was
finished.
The democratic enthusiasm
mot at every appointment
powered them—made thorn
and they hastened to shake
soil from their feet.
Wo regret, a* every true
and democrat must, if the least
courtesy was shown she third
ty craters at any of their
ments.
While Weaver and Leas®
sent a crowd that doesn’t believe
in freedom of speech—a boycotting,
strife-creating crowd, and they
oanw among us for the express
purpose of dividing our own
ple and turning our proud old state
over to the scalawag, demagogue
sknn nt from which our people
rescued it just after the war—still
it is not Georgia’s way to d®ny
any stranger within her border®, a
respectful hearing, and most espe¬
cially if that stranger wears a dr«ss.
We are persuaded, notwithstand¬
ing Weaver’s lament alien on the
discourtesy shown him and Lease,
and the effort to pus - as a martyr,
that democratic enthusiasm which
met him at every^ step in Georgia,
and not discourtesy drove him
from the state.
In Atlanta although more than
3,000 people assembled to hear
Weaver and every policeman in
the city was o'utigeJ to preserve
order and tho governor of the state
promised him a respectful hearing,
Weaver refused to speak.
According to our Southern way
of thinking, women ere made for
something better than political
muff-slinging. Gur Southern
man has bee.i queen of th-s
hold, saint of the church, and at
her shrine the best manhood of the
8011 th has bowed. When States¬
man Lease v-ume to Georgia to
low in political mire, to mount
hustings, call Georgians “liars”
and denounce the party that has
guarded the sanctity of Southern
homes, she descended from
nigh pedestal upon which our
men have stood. But the out ot
her garment protected her from
insult or injury.
Georgia wants none of Lease and
Weaver—none of the party they
represent, and realizing it they
beat a cowardly retroat.
WHAT A FALSIFIER!
Gen. Benjamin Jay hew Cleve¬
land was in Big Smith district on
stock law election day circulating
the report that Alias Ellen Bortcii
nas given up the Democratic tight
and acknowledge that the third
party was “in” m Franklin county
by a large majority. Great scott,
Ben 1 why didn’t you say that the
heavens and the earth has changed
places, or that Alias Ellen had
ceased to revere and cherish the
memory of her dead father, or
spurned and cast off her mother.
Hiss© statements might be believ¬
ed by some idiot. But the one you
miiKe would never be credited by
any one. No, no, Ben, you have
completely destroyed your force
as a misrepresenter. Nothing you
might say hereafter will !*e credit¬
ed or reported aven by Parson
Stonocypher or John Stott. Tom
said he thought it would have been
better for the third party if you
hadn’t made that speech in your
district, and what do you reckon
lie will say now? I shouldn’t be
surprised if \ouaro order«d to
withdraw iroai the third party at
one i and if you are you will have
no one to blame but yourself, and
you will not deserve the
of your washwoman. — Toccoa
News.
Gen. Benjamin Jay hew Cleve¬
land, it is rumored, is mentally
unbalanced. There ia a strong
suspicion that he will be given a
place in tho home that the Demo¬
crats have provided at
vilie for third party lunatics.
General Fields, in his speech at
Birmingham, Ala., began by de-
ploring the hardships of the farm-
ers, saying they are getting poorer
all the time, because the money
that belonged to the people has
been ruthlessly taken from them,
Who is to blame for this? The
democrats eay the north is guilty,
This is partly true. The high tar-
iff' has partly done it and the re-
publicans are the guilty ones. They
have enacted all the hostile rnoas-
ures. So far I agree with the South-
era democrats. The democrats
deny responsibility by saying they
have not had control of the posi¬
deucy, senate and house at the
same time.
A SENSIBLE LETTER.
The alliance was organized for
the benefit of the laboring classes,
end was a power for good. It had
accomplished a great deal—whip¬
ped the bagging trust, adjusted
tbe difference between the farmer
and the merchant. The democrat
were ready and had already con¬
ceded every just demand. Living¬
ston, Moses and others had proven
beyond a doubt that a man could
be a good democrat and at the
same time a true allianceman.
We seem to have forgotten that
the alliance had any bounds.
Wc should not lose sight of the
fact that we are one people. Our
interests are identical. Why then
the Democratic party to fol¬
low men whose only desire is to
use the alliance as a stepping stone
into office—traitors who suffered
flag to trail in the dust and
then have the audacity to say to
“follow me, I am the way.”
We will agree that theirs is the
way into the republican party,
where all of the third party leaders
finally land. Who are those
bosses? Tom Watson
and Winn? Traitors. Weaver
who not only 3ought every oppor¬
tunity to abuse your party public¬
ly but said your women would sell
out—your mothers, wives, listers
and sweethearts. Cursed be the
infernal tongue that would utter
one word of slander against the
best, grandest and most patriotic
women on God’s green earth.
Weaver, the standing candidate on
any platform. Col. Post, the athe¬
ist, regarding not God nor man.
You Christian men, are you wil¬
ling to keep such company? Ar®
you willing to be led by thorn into
the republican ranks? Look at
the platform ! Two wise men could
not stand on it side by side with¬
out Crushing through. If adopted,
it would bankrupt the government
in twelve months. The only ob¬
ject sought is to split the solid
South in the interoat of the repub¬
lican party.
Suppose you had $50 per capita,
how long would it remain here,
while you pay millions of dollars
to pension northern soldiers, and
an average of more than thirty
dollars tariff on every hundred
you spend. Will not the money
as naturally flow back north
water will run down hill? This is
republican legislation, and wher*
the third party is intentionally or
unintentional ly drifting.
Why not tell the people the
truth? Tell them that outside of
the protected industries north, the
tariff is sapping the life out oi
them, and that the republican
party is responsible for it?
Now, my friends, to is is the
party toward which you are drift¬
ing, and the one in which yeur
loaders will land. You are prodi¬
gals. While you have suffered
wrongs, these wrongs have been
magnified, and you have strayed
far away from home and friends.
Why stay away longer? Return to
your own homo before you suffer
and cause your own people to suf¬
fer any more republican misrule.
I call upon you in the name ol
the great democratic party—the
party that embodies everything
that 13 grand, noble, patriotic, wise
and just; I oaii upon you in the
name of your good women, in the
name of your dead heroes, to come
back home. We are going to have
a great feast Wc propose to form
a new alliance—one tuat embraces
all professions of this beautiful
Southland. The qualifications
shall be wisdom, justice and mod¬
eration, and its name shall be Pure
Democracy. W. A. Daniel.
A SENSIBLE COLORED MAN.
Editor Tribune : Please giv# me
space in your valuable paper to
speak of a democratic suppar giv¬
en at Martin Saturday night. Oys¬
ters were our chief ^delight. Both
white and oolored enjoyed them¬
selves to the highest. I did not
see any difference manifested at
the supper. All were treated alike.
There was quite a number ol
third party men present, who were
invited into ths hall to partake 01
°y Bter 8 U PP* r > which we a11 en '
joyed finely.
Th© democratic party is proving
to the colored man that it is his
best friend in the South.
The colored race feels that what
is the democrats’ interest is their
interest, and that they are not
afraid of being misled by the de¬
mocracy of this Southland of ours.
The colored man’s best friands
are in the South.
Rev. E. D. Bradley, Colored.
To the colored voters of Frank¬
lin : When you vote tha third par¬
ty ticket you vote for a party that
is pledged by its platform to dis-
franohisa a majority of your race.
Will you give them th® power to
take the ballot away from you, as
they declare in their platform they
will do?
|THE PEEK SLAVERY BILL.
Tho Slavery bill has been traced
back to where all such infamous
cratic measure! originate—in tho demo¬
rank*. Col. \V. D. Tutt, a
democrat, is the author of it.
vVhen Peek put an amendment to
flic bill giving the tenant as fair a
fliance aa the landlord, the demo¬
crats rejected it. Now get up an-
>ther lie and we will put it back in
he same old nest.—Last week’*
Enterprise.
The adjourned session of the
general assembly of Georgia met
m Atlanta Wednesday, July Gth

bill:
“A bill to make it unlawful for

Some of the third-party leaders
have been stating that this bill
was not introduced by Billie Peek
out was fathered by Bill Tutt.
Now these leaders have falsified
from ignorance or intention, and
are trying to shield Peek from the
responsibility of this infamous
oill. The record as quoted above
recites the facte. Peek introduced
tho original bill on tha ®econd day
of the session, and had it man® the
special order of th® day for Julv
27th. He waa anxious for its pass¬
age, as the record ihow^and stands
to-day as h^did when he was try¬
ing to get thia bill saddled upon
the poor renters of this state. Can
renter, cropper or tenant sup-
port this man for th® highest of.
fice within the gift of the people of
Georgia?
The third party bosses didn’t
resolute any about the
of the Grand Army of the
lic in tho capital of the nation a
few days ago. But when the
old Confederate Veterans of Frank¬
lin county, some of them home¬
less and friendless, kicked out to
die in destitution by the Alliance
legislature, resolved to hold a re¬
union, the bosses resoluted againit
it, calling it disloyalty to this r§-
united republic.
