The editor of the Bruns* irk Time*,
which sails under the soaring nomdc-
plume of “The Brunswick daily Flop*
per” in the columns of aereral of ita un
charitable contemporaries, is disturbed
over a ptaMible outbreak of discontent
among the stock holders of the Hf.bam»
Company. We will quiet his fears on
that line by assuring him that the pres
ent lesse, was re-elected .director by a
full vote of the stockholder at their re
cent meeting. However much some of
them may differ as to candidates, they
are unanimous in their conteui|»t for a
mau who hasn't the courage to sustaiu
his honest convictions. The circum
stances connected with the ‘ Hop" of the
Times, are, of course, sensitive (mints
with the editor, Init he need not antici
pate that the editor of the Hf.rai.h will
will join him in his misery.
Ho
i man say he is in favor of
the Ocala demands subject to the Dem
ocratic conventions * The Ocala de
mands are legislative demands, and not
•lemands upon the Democratic (tarty. ~
Brunswick Times.
Simple enough, neighbor ! The uieui-
liers of a political (tarty have the privi
lege of asking their party to adopt meas
ures of rrforrn. They can demand at
tention from their (sditiral friends and
(•arty. The party once in tamer can
enact into laws the measures to which
it is committed. You can demand that
your agent or representative carry out
your wishes. But you cannot ex|»ect
him to do so unless lie is pledged to do
«o. Congress has nothing to do with
fixing platforms of principles.

[Controversy continued].
Edi/er Hera/d; — Thank* for your
prompt—I with I could add, “and satis
factory,
Let me in the first place retract the
dirrrt. I regret having used the word.
It waa unnecessary, and furnished a very
fine hair for splitting, which was very
promptly and artistically done.
I desire now to put you on the defense
of both the meamrf and the mdkod.
My “intent” is simply to insist that
the suhtreaaury idea, or any other idea
that means governmental aid to the peo
ple, is antagonistic to that prinriplc of
Democracy that opposes anything like
paternalism.
I am quite willing to admit that Dem
ocracy is progressive, but I must insist
that it lias not progressed so far as to
reverse »•* psitinn on this, its cardinal
doctrine.
That would lie revolution rather than
progression.
I too, may lie mistaken as to your in
tent Mr. Editor, but as I understand it,
your position is that we are now in the
hands of a plutocracy brought about
largely by the undemocratir national
banking system, and that the sub-treasu
ry idea is the only measure now known
by which the power of the national
banks can be overthrown, and the rule
of democia:y reestablished.
If the national banking system be un
democratic, and I am not jtrepared to
deny it. I cannot see how the sub
treasury idea can In* further defended,
for it is but an extension of the princi
ple. whereby more people'nre benefited.
* If the financial evils complained of,
have been brought about bv government
aid to the few, which is essentially un
democratic, the remedy proposed, is to
extend the same aid to the many where
by it becomes democratic.
My logic may l»e at fault, but it looks
very much to me, as trying to put out a
lire by burniug the house down.
Why not let the government make us

opposed directly to centralization of the
money power in the hands of the fear,
and for breadth of scope and directness
of application has never been equaled

Vfc agree with you that centralization
or paternalism are undemocratic. You
will without doubt agree with ih that
eoncentratioii of governmental (tower is
a proper definition of centralization niul
paternalism.
\oii assume that the suit-treasury plan
is uiidenuteratie ltecuiise tending to cen
tralization. You sustain this view by the
argument that Itecause the National
bank system is tuulenioeratie, the suit-
treasure plan as 'an extension of that
system is still farther removed from
democracy. Yet we note that you are
not quite sure that the national' bank

I’nder the above caption the editor of j
the Savannah News undertakes to show
that we are really on a very good finan- |
rial condition after all. He assures us
that we are all mistaken, as there is
more money in the country now than
ever before. If he will take the trouble
to read the open letter of Hon. John
Davis, of Kansa*. to the secretary of the
treasury, he will sec that some grave
errors in the secretary’s report 'are
(minted out and evidence produced to
sustain the assertion that the amount of
money iu circulation in 1865 was $47.42
per capita, and thal there lias been a
steady decrease in the (ter capita circula
tion. The trouble with the secretary’s
l report is that he fails to account for
$830,000,000 of 7-30 notes that were
then in circulation a* money, and have
since been withdrawn.
We will admit, for sake of argument,
that there is sufficient money now in
the country to satisfy the condition! of
trade. According to the News editor’s
own statement it is in the hands of pri
vate money speculators, and not among
the (teople, and our cotton fails to find
a market* for that very reason, that all
over the world the industrial classes arc
suffering on account of a scarcity
of the medium of exchange. He
says the wheat farmers are not complain
ing of a scarcity of money. A little in
quiry in that direction wonld convince
him of his error.
The effort to make the tariff the main
issue before the ]>eop|c is causing some
of our esteemed city editors to become
blind to the real condition of things.
They see plenty of money because it is
congested in the money centres, lint they
know little of the real distress among
the masses of the people.
It was this same quieting sense of se
curity that caused the great plutocrats of
Uoinc to mistake the conditions and
tcmjHT that resulted in the Agrarian

The Baxley Banner grows enthusiastic
over Judge Atkinson's prospects in Ap
pling county.
The Judge met Mr. Turner in joint
drbate, on last Tuesday. As usual the
young giant of the Eleventh was expect
ed to lift the heavy end, by granting his
distinguished antagonist the opeuing and
closing, ami contrary to the prediction
of a certain fiery en-judge lie not only
met hut conquered, the Banner says:
••Our victory is more strongly assured
than ever. Especially, it is true in the
Atkinsou-Turner rare. Tuesday's meet
ing won five the former, friends—friends
who were once hi* bitterest enemies, and
swore vmgance against hi* election.”
“To day such Is not true; all that fight
made against Mr. Atkiusnn, because he
embused certain plank* in the Ocala
platform, was wnjn*t and wntngfnlly
hurled at him for lack of something else
to shoot him with: ami now, those who
trie*! so hard to push him out of exi*»
fence «-n account of. tk'alaism, are
staunch Iteliever* t»f the aaiue portions of
the platf.trot, ami pnwioancr them Dem

“He is a true Democrat, morally true,
ami naught (An be said against him to
unqualify him in the position he i* now
seeking. Furthermore, the; Alliance

are going to carry him through to vic

A fertilizer factory will lie started in

desire to take an interest in the com
