JAMER W, CHANCE,
Mr. Sewall is ordered to come
down by the Populist Micado.
If Nansen the North Pole hunter,
had an arm 200 miles long he might
have reached the pole at oneSplace.
It is highly probable that some
body has informed the Hon. Bourke
Cochran that he is a wonderfully
great man.
Why don’t people learn the dif
ference between a cyclone and a
tornado ? It is simply a question of
nomenclature, that is all.
The evidence of our perfect pol
itical freedom is shown in the fact
that Father Sewall can’t take his
younster across his lap and use a
free silver shingle on him.
The secret conclave of Senator
Ben Tillman, who was hissed unto
silence at Chicago, with Hon. Tom
Watson can bode no good for pa
triots or parties.
The thermometer dropped from
92 to 71 degrees Fah. in 20 hours
Thursday noon to Friday morning.
It is hoped by many that the bot
tom dropped out of the heated term
aiso.
It is suspected that Senator Sher
man’s cold blooded speech for Wall
street and his pet monopolists froze
up a lot of McKinley’s votes that
will thaw out for Bryan and Sewall
before the election.
Any one who thinks the Hon.
Tom Watson is in the fight for the
vice-presidency for any one else
than the Hon. Tom Watson should
read his late manifesto in the New
York World between the lines.
The alledged tremendous meteor
that came to Arizona a few days
ago is a mistake. The news dis
patcher only heard Seab "Wright’s
fiery band wagon when he butted
it against the Chicago platform.
A New York paper finds the pres
ident in favor of the sound money
friends because so many of his
friends say so. The said paper has
guessed wrong so many times about
what the president thought it may
safely be said of this ‘you are
another.”
This is chipped from the Atlanta
Journal and beats any political
mixture we have yet seen, “Mr.
Hooper Alexander, a single gold
standard Democrat; Hon. Seab
Wright, who declares that he is an
independent and not a partisan in
politics; Dr. Gambrel!, a prohibition
ist, and T. R. R. Cobb, a silver Dem
ocrat who will support Watson
“because he is a Democrat,” opened
the Populist campaign in Atlanta
last night with speechmaking in
the Moody tabernacle.
A WARNING AGAINST A DEMAGOGUE.
The Populist vice - presidential
candidate is airing himself in the
New York World where every act
of his parly has been denounced,
lampooned and villified ever since
its birth. But any port in a storm
with this perennial humbug and
demagogue. The World has a large
circulation and gives the widest
range of notoriety. This gives him
a chance to spread wide his boast
that if Sewall the Democratic nom
inee does not come down for T. E
Watson the . poor people of the
United States will not have the sat
isfaction of getting free silver which
they have demanded so long. For
real gall and unadulterated impu
dence this has the right to take the
prize.
PERPETUATING ROBBERY.
The Pierpont-Morgan syndicate
who has been so kind as to loan the
United States $20,000,000 for noth
ing to keep up the gold reserve in
the treasury, has fooled very few
people tho some banks are making
quite a yell over it. The lact is
well known that this patriotic (?)
syndicate simply deposited the
gold money in the United State’s
treasury receiving greenbacks for
it by which these great patriots can
draw it out again in gold dollars
after the election is over and their
patriotic McKinley’s votes have
done its job of robbing the people
as intended. The whole trick is one
of the very meanest swindles ever
perpetrated by national robbers on
a long suffering people.
We will just call the Augusta
Chronicle’s attention to the fact
that its pet Ben Pitchfork has been
whispering over Watson’s back
fence to him. May bo Ben isn’r
alright for Sewall—may be he is!
Mr. Seab Wright who wants to
be governor for the Populist says
he will be elected by 25,000 majority.
He is a little more moderate than
Coi. Billy Peak* was who claimed
that he would carry the election
by 30,000 when he canvassed the
state. There is nothing mean about
Seab Wright.
The Augusta t Chronicle tersely
puts it thus:
“Hon. Thomas E. Watson’s person
al contribution to the N. Y. World
amount to this: The fate of this
country depends upon Me. If you
do not withdraw Sewall and makes
Me Bryan’s running mate, the Re
publicans will win the fight. Coun
try and its liberty may be worth
something, but it is a minor^consid-
eration to Me,”
Our youDg Georgia orator, Thos.
R. Ii. Cobb, who so eloquently talked
Democracy here when General
Evans was a gubernatorial candi
date, has swung so far on the pol
itical pendulum as to land inside
the Watson camp. The meteors
are getting together. The bi-Tom
combination is now engaged in get
ting up Watson presidential clubs
in the enemy’s country* There is
no telling where they will finally
lead, but the New York World has
taken possession of their portraits
for the present. Cobb’s appears
among the advertising columns and
close to “fresh goods and wash
brics” in a late Sunday edition.
CANDIEATE WRIGHT.
Hon. Seaborn Wright says, “The
common people are the Democrats.”
Then in another bieath says he
ouidn’t vote for Atkinson because
he is the candidate of a lot of ring
politicians. Most of us remember
that Gov. Atkinson is a candidate
by reason of the “common people”
at the primaries. We hardly un
derstand the consistency of these
two public statements made in the
same speech.
We think Hon. Seab Wright
makes a break when in his Atlanta
speech he uttered this sentiment;
that he “had rather attempt to buy
the vote of the average white poli
tician than the negro preacher.” As
nearly every white voter, whe is
interested in tho great financial
question as well as other important
issues now before the people, having
given it thought and expressed
himself, has;become a politician, it
is a broad assertion as to their pa
triotism and political horofy.
Then we must r< member Thai Hon.
Seaborn Wright now shows up
pretty well among the “average
white politician.”
Hon. Seaborn Wright is a very
able speaker and very eaptlvting
one, but he seems rather illogical
and wonderfully sophistical. Soph
istry and bad logic are dangerous
to fool with when the calm think
ing white voter sits down and takes
up the paper with his speeches in
cold black and white before him.
But be it far from us to disparage
the ability of Seaborn Wright. TIis
aspirations are laudable but he is
wasting his ability “on the de c ert
air” since his course, in opposing
the Democracy after the Chicago
platform, is wholly illogical and
without good reasons as a Populist
who is a Democrat as he says he is.
THE PRESS’S POWER.
A New York daily of a marvel
ous circulation put forth a great
many questions for Bryan, the
nomine? to answer when he ap
peared at Madison Square Garden
on the 12th inst. and was greatly re
joiced because ho did not turn aside
from the scheme of the address of
acceptance to do as requested. Ii j
furnished a pretext for saying he!
could not respond. By the formal |
letter of acceptance appears and
demolishes the questions refer
red to everybody will have forgot
ten the incident, but all the force of
‘the unanswered interrogation, if
any, will have had its efifeeton the
readers of the said journal and this
will bo called great journalism.
Newspaper frauds are becoming so
patent and newspaper prevarica
tions so constant that tjie power of
the press is gradually diminishing
among the great masses of thinking
and studious readers. There is one
good -effect in this condition of
things; the people are iearning to
think for themselves.
The Democratic party fighting so
earnestly for financial reform, is
told |'hat his (the Watson) j a'ty
will enable him to defeat Bryan if
ho is not given the place in the
Democratic ticket assigned to Sew
all.
It is a question that honest and
earnest Populist ought to answer,
viz: How long will they live under
the domination of a lot of office
seeking demagogues when their
aims and purposes are to effect re
forms in the government. Their
whole efforts were b.;rn in disre
pute because they were led by
those whose sole business in life
was office hunting.
An immense amount of money
wili he spent by the McKinley gang
of monopolists, trust, and combines
to defeat Bryan and his work for
people, but Watson, if he can
allure Populists to vote against him
will do more than all this money io
injure a cause which is intended for
the common benefit of the masses.
If they follow his lead in defeating
the Democratic ticket, the masses
will never see, we predict, another
opportunity to reform the monetary
wrongs of the nation by the ballot.
The money gang will have gained
all rhe power they want under
McKinley, and peaceful ballots will
be wasted against the wall of ad
amant raised, and subjugation or
violence will follow. The same old
war of money-power against the
masses will have begun in earnest
to end perhaps in revolutionary
violence. We say it is not the at
tempt to raise the prejudice of the
poor against the rich it is iRising
the usual question of wealth demin
ation and its worst of tyrannies.

You naturally lose flesh in
the summer and running down
is so easy. You get a little
weaker each day without hard
ly noticing it. There is loss of
appetite, headache, weakness
of the muscles, disturbed sleep,
weakness of memory, and these
are the beginning of nervous
prostration. Iron and tonics
and bitters may afford some
temporary relief, but what you
need is a food for body, brain
and nerves.
SuotH Smuf&iori,

nourishment needed for those
who are run down and pale arid
