TOMORROW'S BATTLE, Tomorrow the pc*>plo of thin sin to trill go to the poll* to nay what men nml which party shall have control of their state government. It la worthy of notice by every voter that though the Dewocmtto party hue been In control of this state for many yearn them has beeu In the oampalgn no Issue touch ing stste matters of Importance enough for tho people to divide npou. nils means that during those long years tho government given tho state by tho Demoeratln party has been to nearly perfect that no Issue can 1m mlseil he- emwe of Its acts to which the people would pay tho slightest attention. Th 0 fact which wo have Just staled might lo make apposition to tho Democratic ticket In a hlate election not only hope less hut absolutely farcical. Why, then, Is there opposition by mractlre, energetic parly, wblrli is sure to poll saute thousand# of votes? It is phi I ti that the raison lies outside tho doninht of state politics, and It Is Hint that party hopes In (he state elec tion to strengthen Itself for the coining national election, by fronting the Im pression on men’s minds that It Is a growing party, with a future, if it can succeed m cutting down seriously the Democratic majority lu (tcorgla, Us trader* will lie Justified In holding out to their followers In other stales tho hopo that u majority of all the pen- pl» will soon be won over to their vis ionary schemes.

Tho real question is not whether Mr. At- hluson shall bo governor, but whether n filial blow shall be lulinlnlsterrd to tho Populist party In tho nothin—n parly whoso continued growth means n continuation of the preseat period of depression amt low priors—whono success would precipitate n crisis from which the country would probably MUergfe with a government strongly socialist In diameter utul possessed of 1 mwers to oppress which the people luivu heretofore Jealously withheld from It, It Is the duty of every Democrat to vote, and we hope that in no pnrt of the slate will Democrats tiy abstention permit the Populists to claim cveu a partial victory. What wo want Is overwhelming victory. No other sort will fully servo the Inter,vis of tli stale, the country nml tho party.

To the Editor of Uio Telegraph: Mr. John Tsenpts Graves, in his last laugh- able gouoralltios of "apprehensions” ag-atust ths DomocraUo party, having, as ho aaya, fatted to awake the tncen- .Uarios In Uio first Instance, now rings tho fire alarm to their innoccut^vlc- thn*. the motubera of the Democratic party of Georgia. uweranc His position la a peculiar one. ln his firsi bundle of verbosity he as serted tho alarming fact that "thous- l-rlenda and Fellow-cltlzens: A great political crittis is - upon this country, and It Is not .the time for party 'strife, but for prompt ami vigorous ‘action that prosperity may be secured to the Btute. Tho Republican convention of the state of Georgia assembled in At lanta August 20 for the purpose* of holding ai consultation with tho lead ing Republicans upon tho issues of the day. They saw best not to put out a state ticket Tlio party being unor ganized, it would have been unwise *m Iiavo raa d° 1111 effort to elect state officers. The great Democratic party in the state of Georgia, which has been ruling this state for twenty-four years, Is divided Into two parts. Each ‘party claims to bo the true Democratic par, ty, or representing true Democratic Ideas. I recognize only two parties In this republic—the Republican party and tho Democratic party. Now, there is a party called by tho name of the “eople’s party,” composed largely of nil third-class Democrats and Republi cans. The thought often arises in our minds, where will this strife between neighbors and fflends end, or what will It load to? The PeopleTa citttfy has for tDielr mot to, "JSqtsal rights to all, and special prtvllcgeato n one.” This is a good motto, If the elemorot In the party had the principle to ccirry it out. BOi dhe element composing tlhe “new party” baa always been dangerous to society and good government. It has Otways been opposed to the "brother In bSaek,” and hue sought every wuy possible to retard >thelr progress <a*nd now- fhey come up asking our careful considera tion In pollttaa'j affairs. Who.*: have they done for us? They have lynched us, burned us alive, shot us down as brutes and organized thdmselves into Hauls of conspliUtors .to strike down ’human liberty. Could any c>d- ored mail vote wi-th such people? What else have they given us or dome for us? Thoy^mve disfigured us tn their news papers, la every’ way possible, which is wn outrage upon a clvlHred peopJe—es pecially tn a country* filled with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Every ATro-Amoricoi who has any race pride about him at all ought, wtiti one united effort, rise up and over throw this element with their votes n<t Che next election. They represent us as boasts carrying their Trtis:ers about, und tt In their pUm to rfdo Into office on our votes; hut they wiH never rtde into office on mtne, and if I had a thou sand votes I would cast them a^:l Just to defeat such an elemen*t as tfils. Tho ex unnle of Kolb In Alabama \e enoueh for any man with nny Judgment to deride the contest as to how he should vote. An open letter was circu lated ln Alabama »ld to have been written by him to a friend tvs follows: "By all means vote the negro, if you have to promise him anything to catch hU vote.” Kolb was the Populist can didate for governor in Alabama and was badly beaten, as he should have been. A man representing such princi ples always should be defeated. . The People’s party seek to array ev ery colored voter agalnot the Republi can party—the only party that ever promised us anythin*, except equal rights before the law. and If they were to promise anything else I believe there are enough honest men In the party <0 make good the promise. The Populists are ransacking the English language to find words atrong enough to denounce the party to which we belong, 1n order to gain our votes— the psrty which bled and died that we rulght have our freedom, that party which in the dark days of reconstruc ts made tt poeeible for us to become American citizens, that party which Highest of all in Leavening Powcr.- Latest U.

The People's party charges that all colored school teachers and preachers the state are bought up by the Demo cratic party, which Is a statement with out foundation, and In fact one that ought to be denounced by every lover race prlo as an intuit to the whole race. Our faces may be as black aa ink, but hearts are as pure as men ever knew. The verdict wall be rendered on October 8, and I hope such men will be burled neatti the frowns of every lover of race pride. I trust that every true and tried Repub. llean will refuse to support the Populist party, which I conceive to be tne sworn enemy of the negro race. C. D. Johnson, Hardeman, Harris County, Go. A PALPABLE ERROR. The Savanrtoh Press Give* a Lesson Sm FJriance Ito a Contemporary. Our good friend down on the Sevan walh Press is atilt writing aln-gle stand. u.rd editorials for his bright Press usd at iBhe wane time making ringing speeches ln south Georgia for o double st art fined candidate for governor.—Au gusts Herald. The Press Is not ndvodatlng a Single stnirdarid, either of gold or saver. Our Augusta contemporary has not read straight. The Press believes In sl?ver If tt can be preserved upon a parity. This 4s wlDot the Chicago platform calls for and that Is what 'the Georgia platform oatls for. The present Democraitib enn- dHate for governor was not nominated upon a 16 to 1 ipkttform. Our Augusta friend w4tl see a groat difference be- itiween the state convention platform sr.d the 'WarrerytorV platform. One would result 'In real bHnelw.'llsm—gold nnd stiver dollars -with the edme pur chasing and debt-paying power—tthe Other would result In ithe single silver standard of featherweight Blivet ‘dollars.'’ The moan who supports the st&tc nation’ll Democratic platform Was no trouble. He (adheres to a sound and safe currency. True bimetallism means (that a silver dollar rfhvilt be us. good ns a gold dollar.
