liundnsl third partyites gathered from
every corner of the Mate, slept in At
lanta tonight. They began arriving a*
**i»riy a* yesterday afternoon, and (oday
several largi* delegation* came in. They
an* here to nttend tho Diople't parly
convention, which will be called to order
by ( . C. Post, at 10 o'clock tomorrow
morning, in the capitol.
No HiK'h gathering of men has ever be
fore appeared iu Atluutu. Almost to a
tuun. the third partyiten, w’bo have been
easily conspicuous on the streets and in
Public place* by the flaming red badges
which they wear, are direct from the
field. The couutry townsman who usu
ally takes part in iiig gatherings of a jk»-
litical nature is not iu it this time, but
It is tlie veritable woodsman who is the
delete to tomorrow’s coiiveutun—the
sure-enough wool hats and hickory
sbiru. The delegates aud those who are
not delegates, but who came aloug to see
the fun, have kept closely to themselves
during the day, tukiug iu the sights, but
making no acquaintances for the pur
pose of talking over tbe "situation.'* No
cuucunses x have been held, and while, of
course, there are candidates anx
ious to be slaughtered, they have man
aged to conduct themselves so Quietly
thut tbe couveutioo will meet tomorrow
thoroughly couvuicedthat its candidate*
have exemplified the principle of the
ottice socking the man, rather than the
reverse, as is specified iu the indictment
ugaiust tbe old parties.
Alliance headquarters have been over
flowing with the delegates aud their
grips und valises ail day. but the crowd
was more like the bunger-uround at a
coroner's inquest tkau a gathering of
politicians. Ihe men are earnest, how*
ever, aud firmly believe that they will
sweep the field from bailiff to governor
this fall when ull the hardships and
burden of poverty will bo removed.
There are very few familiar faces
urnoiig the promoters of tlic’uevr party.
Outside of Peek. Post, Ellington, Twit
ty and a few others they are all stran
gers to their uew*foiiud duties.
Lul. Peck who is ou hand nearly fully
recovered from the effects of his acci
dent will have no opposition in tho gu
hematuria I race. lie will be placed
before Uu* convention by \V. R. Oonnau
of 'lulbot, and probably nominated by
acclamation.
Ellington, who was regarded as au
aspirant for the honor of the guiieruu*
torial nomination, has been sidetrm ked
by a promise of tbe presidency of tlie
otnte Alliance, as Liviugston*s sue
motor.
In fuel little contest Is anticipated for
any of tbe nomination except betweeu
liurrett of Itichuioud and Ivey of At-
ianU for coiiiuiiiiHioiier ot agriculture.
