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. the rstaerr. So much by way of general review. Now, where do we stand to-day ? We have, in one of the greatest gath erings ever known iu this country, re affirmed the declaration of principles made at St. Louis in 1883. Th# same platform which was adop ted at Ocala. Th# sams which met approval at lu- diaoapolis. ^•°t an essential principle Las been changed.

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.
