The address of the Hon. (! B. Wooten at Borrion superior court last week was a masterly and elo quent exposition of tiue democratic doctrine and party policy, as it now and has ever been presented to the American people. There are two things his opponents cannot charge to bis account, tha|) he minces words or fails to call things by their proper names. llo acknowledged and spoke very feelingly of the untoward condition of the masses of American farmers, there Is a feeling of unrest and di* satisfaction among this class of our countrymen that is calling loudly for relief, und lie insisted thut their relief could only come through the domiiiunoyof the demooratio party —the party “of tho people, by the people and for tho people.” He animadverted severely upon tho folly of southern white people leaving the time honored demooratio party which has over responded to the call of the people for relief when it was in a condition to' aid thorn— illustrating the point by a reference to the promptiicsa with Which that party gathered up the reins of gov ernment in Ooorgiu after reconstruc tion und brought order out of oiiaos —und fol lowing after the ignis faiuut labeled third or people's party. As a means of relief to this op pressed class of our people he offered an antidote with (Ivo ingredients: First, a reformation of tho tariff from a protective to a revonuo basis; second, u graduated tax on incomes; third, free silver coinage; fourth, ubolitlou of the national bunking system; fifth, governmental control of railroads, He argued very logic ally tout this relief, or any other Hint might Ini suggested, could not Ih> secured at one “foil swoop” but gradually. He earnestly believes with these measures of rcliof in full force, toguthcr witli tlie abolition of ten per cunt- tax on state banks, that tlie doubtful, impmotioul and ex treme sub-treasury policy would plainly appear to be unnecessary. File Gakktth approves tho course marked out for the relief of our op pressed pmiplo by Mr. Wooten he cause tiiey are Bound dcmocrutio doc trines. TI10 people should not in tliulr desperation grow rudioul in their viows or seek rush or doubtful remedies, fait conservatism be the ruling passion of the hour; seek tlie needed relief gradually until it is found. He referred to the Ciythbcrt con ference with a spirit, of liberality. Ho insisted, however, ua the Gazette did last week, if tlie alliance intend ed thereby to gain advanced or van tage ground in tlie donmcmtio con- gressoiinl convention it lias signally failed mid no other result could have been expected. Wliilo it may bo true thut tlie delegates to the conference met ua democrats it was an unusual mid doubtful proceeding, without a precedent In demooratio history; it was radically wrong and tending only to tlm disruption of tho dumo- oratlo party. .Mr. Wooten insisted, also, that the methods by which Mr. 0. B. Stevens was placed boforo tbs peoplo as a congressional candidate were undomoorutio uml wrong. Tho address was listened to throughout with dose attention, and wo think it will result in good to the party in tho oounty.
