STATESBORO, Ga., Oct. 81.—Hon.
Thomaa E. Watson, Populist candidate
for president, spoke here today. Ho
snld In part:
"We are not nfratd of the negro, are
we? We have him In the hollow of
our hands and are going to keep him
there. Have we not done everything
to him In the South that we wanted
to? Th.vDemocrats have disfranchised
him everywhere except In Georgia, and
here they were afraid of the Populists.
He la a veritable helllan on every day
except election day.
”1 care nothing about Parker but to
get him out of the way and If the peo
ple will aland by me I will wipe Roose
velt off the earth In 1908. Parker
Ih nothing, nnd not much of that. He
1h the deg In the manger. He won’t
get In himself and won’t let me in.
You had Just as well throw away
your vote on me ms on Parker. I never
expect to be president, but I Intend
to reorganize the Ponullnt party thnt
will elect a man aome day. My home
papers are the only ouch that malign
They say I am a great man nnd
brag on my books, but damn me In
politics."
In an Interview after the speech
r. Watson said that his Idea was to
organize the Jefferson Democrats,
“The Hamilton Democrats aro now
An league with the Republicans. That
lass of people Is In power now," said
He said when nsked about the
movement after the election to unite
with the Bryan nnd Heqrst Democrats,
that there had been no agreement bo
tween the three men, but It Is his In
tention to continue to work along that
line. He never expected to become
president himself hut believed that by
holding the Populist forces together he
nnd Bryan and Ilearst could act to
gether, though probably moving ns sep
arate units, nnd bring a Waterloo to th&
Hamilton plutocrats.

thing known to the profession without
relief, until I commenced to use Foley’s
Kidney Cure. After taking three bot
tle* I was entirely relieved and cured.
