Accuses the Congressman From the Tenth of Being Ruled bj a . Clique. , ' HIS CHARGES OF CORRUPTION. Panin Ilia Ueiponilblllty tor tha Plata of Affair. Eilallnf Throughout the District— aomo of UP Charg.s, Thnmson. Ga., Nov. 21.—(Special).— Jon. Thomas E. Watson afcs written and forwarded his tollman reply to MaJ. Blaok’a oropostttom for another eleotfan hi dhs Tenth district. Mr. Watson states how. at the request of a friend, he wroe proposing to MaJ. Black tihait bal lot boxes from oentaln precincts be purged of Ulexal ballots, nod aiys tiu.t Uhls has cmVbarrueueU Mr. Black,;as.is by Che bad temper of his reply and counter propcsttCm. He says, however, thalt Maj. Black speaks Ices for himself than for She clique which surrounds him. . Goins further, he says: “It is lharly worth while for ma to bandy words with Mr. Black as to who Is nes.'jonslMe for the terrible state of affairs In Che Tenth;’ but when he rays that I have arrayed ooutry agatet the town, and the .poor against tha rich, he utters a slander which every act and epeotfa of my Ute ref trees. With all the power that’s In me I have tried to con vince the people that the infamous class laws hat now oppress them would ruin city uni:l country, merchant and fawner and laborer—Heaving no one safe from Ithe storm excepting the pampered beneftohiTles of unjust lteglshttlon. "If I am wrong In this belief, about our laws, tiho h-iets which surround us are stromgely deceptive. "The evUls which I have denounced are ithose which were pointed out to me by such utatemon as Stephens, and Toombs, and Jefferson, and Jackson, wnntJ. C. C. Black. "If I am uforo of a stickler for the rights of .the people, as against the po litical tricksters, than Is allways agreea ble ito my opponents, I was Inoculated with the virus by the distinguished non Wanned.’’ He accuses Maj. Black.of having - sane over to the ring which he had fought so persistently In 1892 and be coming onto of the ohlefs among the Philistines. If he Is wrong in lighting ring rule and for the principles of itho alliance, ho says, then -the people were wrong 4n- electing Governor Norfhcri and Congressman LlvJngsto, Moses, Everett and Bawson and Senator Gor don. They, he says, Joined the alliance, which he did not do, but be endorsed Its platforms and fought for Its prin ciples. Further on In this connection Mr. Watson says; To have stayed In Congress on the same terms as did my alliance col leagues was easily within my power. To nave abandoned the friends who bad fought my battles, trusted me, honored me, loved me, would have •brought me the same reword It brought to Northern Livingston, Qloses and Lawson. 11 1 could not bring myself to buy office upon these terms, nor could I do so to day. Where have I ever raised any strife except that clash of opinion which healthily follows fair public debate? Who ever heard me make a speech that was not an appeal to the best thoughlt and the best feeling of my nuai.'iice? Who can Tiuote a sentence from any of my writing that is not In the line of legitimate discussion? What airtlce of my political faith endangers church or stake ? .. Where have I. appealed to other weapon than the ballot? "Hounded like a mad-dog as I was in 1892, then. If ever, was the time for me lb epeak tho words of passion and reach • out to jjrasp tho ■weajpooi of retaliation; ..but the otenosnap-Mc reports of my V speeches ore all accessible to the world, ana I defy any man to produce a seniti- xn?nt Which dbes not leave mo in coin- menda&Me contrast with ithooe Who were ettbauriUng upon m s the language of vi- tup#n*tdan. "Who has more earnestly preached peace and conctMaNtlon than I? "Who has more persistently opposed boycotts and the etern rocouwe to “measure for measure?” ‘‘.Who has (been readier to forget and forgive? "Who has pleaded moire earnestly for hhait broad liberality wttkA cheerfully concedes ito every man the right to his own opinion? "When Mr. Black or any other Demo cratic leader speaks of strife and tad feeding among our people he should not forget that in tho country counties, where «)*■ people’s party predominates, lb Democrat has beetn murdeiled, nor any Democratic spoaker howled down. It Is In the Strongholds of his party chut Populist speakers have been constantly howled down and Populist voters killed. He tton reproaches Maj. Black with the treatment he received In the city of Augusta In 1892. Had Maj. Black ac- Cflpted Ms proposition to abide by the registration laws, alt the trouble would have been avoided, "no White face of the dead would have made otu pallid protest against the fearful system Which emboldens the ballot box stutter to murder.’’ He also Charges that "to open the way for unlimited voting Mr. Black, in 1892. went before Judge Speer of the Federal court, and had the reg istration laws of the district set aside. I was no party to the case. Then followed the 13.000 Votes In Richmond county. I contested the result, and Mr. Black and bis party friends re futed me o hearing In congress—tho first time it was ever done In tho his tory of the government. Then oame the election of 1894. I appealed to him to obey the registration laws. He refused to respond. Then my friends went before Judge Roney, of the Augusta circuit, and Wed to get an Injunction restraining the election managers of Richmond county from disregarding the registry lists. Mr. Black resisted the Injunction, and Judge Roney refused to grant It. Then followed a singular state of af- ■ fairs. The registration laws were obeyed In every county In the state, where they existed—with the sole ex ception of Richmond. Mr. Black's home county Ignored the bnr which all fh other counties of the state obeyed. The result ire* naturally ’a earousUS or trand’ In Richmond county. Mr. Wotron then quotes figure* pub lished In the Atlanta Constitution from Mr. J. K. KInman of Jefferson county to show how greatly the vote in different counties exceeded what it should have been. In- closing Mr. Watson says: "Upon the Idea that the time had come when' public sntlment was rady for a repudiation of the Augusta frauds, I wrote tho brief proposition which ap peared in the McDuffie Journal. "It was with great pleasure that I noted the general approval of my offer .which the Democrats expressed. There is no doubt that Mr. Black would have utterly lost the respect of thousands ol tho best Democrats of tho district list ho atemped to treat the proposition with the same contemptuous indifference which so many others of mine have met at his hands. "I accept his counter-proposition and agree to refer the matter back to tho people, as he suggests. "In that .connection, I again urge him to enter Into an agreement with me to observe tho registration! laws, and I most earnestly implore him to send out no more circulars offering free rides to negro voters, and promising to put theni' In the Jury boxes In return for votes These methods are not, strictly speaking Arcadian."

WHY MEDIATION WAS DECLINED Sir. Gresham Gtvia Out Ills Action In Dealing With tho Matter—How s tho Affair I* Likely to Uo .• Adjusted, Washington, Nov. 21.—The state de partment has received a cable reply from Japan, through Mr. Dunn, at To- klo, to the United States' suggestion of oj mediation. Tho Japaneselcg atton here has also received from the foreign office In Ja pan a cable message stating that a reply has been made, and glvjng Its terms. Both cables were received here Sunday afternoon. The cable to Secretary Gresham is accompanied by unusual dignity, and formality in having the Imperial sanc tion of kbi majesty the Emperor of Japan. It Is rarely that tho Emperor speaks in diplomatic negotiations, so abut.his action In this case la evidence of Japan’s desire to express Its nppre- cloltiian of the course of the United States. The message Is In two parts, the first giving the Imperial expression of good will and saying .that tile success of tho Japanese arms had been such that Chinn should approach Japan di rectly. The second. part (a more dlrefotly frm Minister Dun, und expresses as the views Of the Japanese foreign offices that, as China has uo minister at To- kio to submit a direct proposition it could be made by Ohinathrough Min ister Dun. TU eeable to Minister Kulr- uo is substantially tho same as the foregoing. The replies were decided on at a special meeting of the Tapaueso cab inet on Saturday and were sent from Toklo Saturday night, but the’Mans- mission delayed tlioni until Sunday* TUie tone of the reply and »Lhe expres sions of Imperial good will give mucu satisfaction .to the oillclals here, and now HlKLt the facta aie know'ni no fur* ther res»erve im maintained the term* of 'ohe negotiations, which hive hitherto been withheld. It appears that at 'die outset Secretory Gresham consuHed Minister Kulrno, as thdre was no debite l> take action wVbityi would be otherwise thmn agreeable to Japan. , , .

It was that president Cleveland had no desire to mediate tho trouble, but on the contrary feJt that tlid exercise of the *cood oillcw of the United btatts might entail a serious burden and re- spoUHlbltiliy -and possibly ox^'ro iiltl- maite feeling by one party or tho other. Under these circumstances no action would be taken If Japan felt It would ctxrato nn awkward situation. ulae stress was laid ou kho fact that Japan would be entirely free to art as she saw lit; that waano press- .... » n hn.vQ her accept Auionc&n^lpL, ^“SueTo th?biSSf e tha?

The position of Germvuy has beeitn -so oleoriy a»do- gous to than of the Unfted States that It has been a queskm of doubt within the last few days whether Germany ndght mot be subatlkuted for the United fltnitcs In the offer of mediation.
