THK SITUATION IN THIS COUNTRY.
Mk. Editor:—By invitation 1 attend

liance ou Saturday, April 2nd. There
wa* a good attendance, and a resolution
endorsing the great labor convention
waa panned unanimously. Every body
was outapoken for the People's Party; eo

What did you first do? You threw
out of employment all the little Town
Politicians, (chip-totere for the Atlanta
ring) and took into your own control the
usniing of candidate*, and the framing
of your platforms.
Notice h, men! Nearly every croaker
and critic of to-day, was a part of the
ring machinery which you smashed
yesterday.
Nearly every newspaper assailing you
to-day, is a part of the journalistic com
bine whidi ruled and misruled the State
before you took charge.

Now, where do we stand to-day ?

THE earSES.
Oar burdens are the result mainly of
three bad system*:
1st. Unjust financial laws.
2nd. Unjust tax law*.
3rd. Unjust transportation laws.
The evil of each of these system* i*
the favoritism which the few enjoy at
the expense of the many.
“.Special privilege” is the curse of
them all.
“Equality” is the remedy for them all.
CCRREXCY.
A# to the financial question there is
i difference of opinion among us.
We all see the evils of the gold stand
ard.
We all see the dangers of allowing
either one of the two precious uietals or
both of them to put the value upon
every other product under the situ.
We all sec that labor and usefulness
are the uatural standards by which the
values of all commodities should lie
measured; that when free interchange of
commodities Letwecu man and man, is
possible all things seek -this natural
level; that free interchange is never pos-
aible till we have as much money in
circulation as the business of the coun
try requires; that the business volume is
itself the best regulator of the mouey
volume; that the great law of supply and
demand should regulate it.
Gold alone should not l»e the only
standard of value; for then gold is mas
ter of all other products. Gold and
silver together as a standard of value re
lieve* the situation to the extent that
the two exercise* a mastery which the
one had before.
Rut injustice still remains. No two
commodities should measure the value
of all other commodities. No three
cooiniodics should do it. No four should
The Union clainia to have heard of
the secret organization of club* by the
so-called “Third Party” for the purpose
of defeating the nominee* of the l>ehioc-
racy.
The heading of the article in question
is false and so is nearly every word iu it.
Any one who read* the papers knows
that the calls for what he term* “secret
dubs” have lieen published, and that
the resulta of all such meetings have
likewise been given to the world. The
People's Party has been, and is still or
ganizing, and it will contiuue to do no
until every couuty in the State is thor
oughly organized, but there is no secret
about it, and the Union knows it, or at
least should know it.
The Union man says that the farmers
“are docking to join the Third Party.”
That much of the editorial is correct;
most of the farmer* have already gone
into the People’s Party, and the balance
of them will not hesitate much longer;
all the false statements and misrepresen
tation* of the old party papers and polit
ical bosses cannot atop them or bring
them back into the fold of the party of
false promises. No air, the farmers of
Georgia can no louger be fooled into
supporting a party that admit* their op
pressed condition but is too cowardly to
grant them any relief. Two yean ago
we wer»told that the Democrat party
was the party of the people, and that if
we would make our fight inside the party
line* our demand* would he granted.
Wc did ho and all who read know the
result ha* proven a flat failure, and now
they want to tool us again, but they are
doomed to disappointment, for we pro-
l*oae to select our own candidates and
elect them too independently of the old
party. No air, there is no secret about
our organizing; we have simply quit
asking our old bo*sew what we may
may not do. We used to do so, but 1

Hut the moment you say that gold

issued ami in sufficient quantities to do
the business of the country and supplied
directly to the people, what have you
done ?
You have put every commodity upon
an equal footiug. You have given gold
aud silver no advantage over cotton or
wheat. You have put it into my power
to get the natural price for my eottou
and to give the natural price for vour
