The wealth that all may gain is not a menace but u strong buttress to a free government. All rneu will pro tect what all may hope to acquire as the opeu prizes of. iudustry, thrift aud intelli- geuce. Hut the wealth that comes from tiie control aud perversion of the power of taxation, that is gathered by unjust laws from the labors of the people, is a sounv «:f rightful discontent and a grow ing peril to our freedom. As the guardi an* of that freedom we plaut ourselves uyou the principle thut the necessities or government are the beginning aud ending of just taxation. Whatever goes beyond tills increases the power of gov ernment at the expense of the liberties of the ppeole. A government that is car ried on beneath his own eye, by his own hoscu servauts uud within the reach of Ids own regulating and puuishiug arm, that government can tie kepi his servant, yet we have but recently aud barely es caped a successful effort to strike down In* government, that stauds nearest the itizen and to strip from the people iu the •‘idles (hat right pv*-s.-rvfttiy> of all other rUht—the right of holding their own elec tion* and choosing their owu representa tives. Kush, sir, are the issues of the cara- pnigu in which we arc alsjut to enter. They go to the* foundation of our liber ty. In this great contest your party has summoned you to be its leader. Four years ago, in the midst of a reer of service that well deserved the highest honors your countrymen could bestow, os we feel sure that it will re ceive the highest encomiums that his tory can award, you were struck dowu because ns u Democrat you could make no terms with those who wished to plunder the people's treasury or those who sought to perpetuate the passions of civil strife. Your countrymen will right that wrong. They will do it, uot for your sake alone, but for their own sake and the sake of the republic. They hayo seen the fruits of the many forms of misgovernment with an overflowing treasury. They have seen tuxes MB creased on the necessaries of Ufs and the necessities of labor liecanse private interests demanded. They have seen that overflowing treasury emptied by extravagant expenditures aud tricks of bookkeeping resorted to to hide its emp tiness from the people. They have seen an attempt to turn the gratitude of a great nation'into an electioneering fund for a political party, and service to that party in conflicts of peace eouut for more than service to the country in con flicts of war. They have seen every power of the Federal administration passionately used to destroy free elec tions in the states. They have seen the Influctioe of our government iu (lie diplomatic aud naval service thrown without rebuke agaiust freedom and in favor of despotism in a st niggling sister republic, aud seeing all this they have lost no opportunity in the past four years to honor your administration by laying the heavy band of' punishment upon those who have thus departed from U sspirit and its policies. And, now, sir, we put iu your hands the commission of which we are bear ers. It is .the highest honor your party can bestow. It Is the gravest call to duty your fellow Democrats can make, but wo believe we can assure you that there are no “weak, weary or despond <*nt Democrats iu the ranks of the party today, aud with the people's cause, we doubt not you will lead us to a victory In which the principles of our party tliall gloriously triumph and the welfare of our country shall be mightily proun>- ted. In the some din Secretary Nicholas 11**11 of the notification committee read the othciul letter of notification. ■ Cleveland then rose is reply and agaiu pandemonium reigned. It was one ter rible roar, and to add to the excitement, the liumeuse standing crowd of 10,000 people swayed buck and forth and crushed in upon the press enclosure. One newspaper man ueurest the crow wus pressed ugnist his table and fainted writh the paiu caused by pressure on the chest. He was revived iu a few min utes and then the police got to work on the crowd. .Gradually it fell tytekaud the excitement was subdued. Cleveland began to speak in the midst of the noise and his voice could not be heard ten feet from the platform. The people were not aware that he had be gun, and when it gradually dawned up on them thut they were losing the best part of the speech, they quieted down snd the tones of the ex-president were heard In every part of the house. He was listened to attentively and was in terrupted but seldom. The applause catne at the end of his speech Mr. rii'vrl'isiV- ttenlv, Me. Cleveland said. In reply to Mr. Wfl«nn> speech “Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen: The message you deliver me from the na tions! democracy arouses within me emo tions which wo**M be well nigh over whelming. If I did not recognise here the assembled representstive« of the great party who must share with me the spon-Ability your mission invites. I find much relief in the reflection that I have been selected for the pmriples and pur poses to which my party is pledged, ami for th»» enforcement and supremacy of that which all who hare any right claim Democratic feilow*bin must con stantly and perfistently labor. Onr par ty responsibility is li <l e- 1 •—nt.

We oppose earnestly aud stubbornly the theory upon which our opponuts seek to justify and upTTold the existing tariff Jaw. We need not base our attack upon questions of constitutional permission or legislative powers. We denounce this theory upon the highest possible grounds when we contend that in the present conditions Us operation is unjust, mid that the laws enacted in accordance with are inequitable and unfair. Ours is not a destructive party. We are not at enmity with the rights of any of our countrymen. We are not recklessly heedless of any American interests, nor will we abandon our regard for them. But. invoking the love of fairness and justice which belongs to true Americans, nod upon which our constitution rest we insist tha no plan of tariff legislation shall be tolerated which has for its object and purpose a forced contribution from the earnings and income of ihe inns* of our citizens to swell, directly or 1 irectiy, the accumulations of the fa vored few, nor will be permitted the pretended solicitude for American labor «»r any other specious pretext of benev olent care for others to blind the eyes the" people to the selfish schemes of those who seek through the aid of an unequal tariff law to gain unearned ud unreasonable advantages at the ex pense of their fellows. We have assumed in our covenant with .those whose nupi>ort we invite the duty of opposing to the death another avowed scheme of our adversaries, which, under the guise of protecting suf frage, covers, but does not conceal. ,tl»e design to perpetuate the power of n party afraid to trust its continuance to the un- trHtnelled and intelligent votes of the American people. We are pledged to re list the legislation intended to complete this scheme, because we have not for gotten tiie saturnalia of theft and bru tal control which followed another fed eral regulation of state suffrage, because we know that the managers of the party which ilid not scruple to rob the p«*ople of a president would not hesitate, with the machinery created by such legisla tion. to revive corrupt instrumentalities for partisan purposes; because an at tempt to enforce such legislation would Were- All Put Through With 'a Mighty Hurrah.

The convention met and was called to order iu the ball of the house of rep resent* tiv»*s at the capital by C. C. Post, chairman of the state committee at 10 o’clock this morning. About *KK) delegates were present, beside* a very respectable following of sympathizer*, come to the capital to take a hand in the convention work from the lobbie* aud gallery. A go*»d deni of interest was mani fested 'iu the convention by lending Demqcrut* aud politician* and the ef fect of tl)« day’s proceedings is to force the Democratic pronhet*, who have heretofore professed to utterly disre gard the new political movement, to acknowledge that work must be done to cut "ff its growth at least If not to win Democracy’* victory In the np- proachiw election*. In fact, the People’* party convention, with It* harmony and determined looking farroer-dzlegates. haa set tins old party leader* to thinkiug. It was a bigger thing tbsn they anticipated, and wble the nxwt sagacious do not believe that candidates put out today will carry a half down counties In the *tata, *111 the fact thut from 300 to 500 farmers left their fh •!» to come to Atlanta on auch a mission, is not wthout t» effect. Tho most significant feature of the conventaq was the bid offered for the negro Trie, whenever opp.irtunlty offered. There verc present two negro dlegates, and hi-iM pains were taken to them Menu and that their mce would bo gladly welcomed within tire n*uk< of the new party. At the morning session a temporary organization of the convention only wa* effected. M. I. Branch waa made tem- I CMk took the ttnnfi and made a speech of acceptance. In his speech he charged that congress had persistently dUcrimiuut- djjUthiSi the inruicr uud laborer, aud the Democratic party was equally respon sible with the Republicans for their wroug. Ho referred to Cleveland ah the nominee of the Democracy, aud said the only hope wa siu the People’s porty; thut without immediate action tire wive* and children of the formers and laborer would contin ue the slaves of plutocracy. He said if the Houth was ever split. Democracy would be the cause o fit. Whenever the ppeole had asked it for relief they met with a refusal on the ground that it wa* unconstitutional. He declared that every candidate who had run in Georgia since the war had tried to uao the negro voto, and wiid tat te negroo did not want o- cial equality, the Southern white man wouldn’t tolerate it. and no lover of his country would agitate the question. The question was timmeial relief. It wa* good for the poor black man n* well a* for the poor white man. He jumped the state bank question, and said it was u Northern “••heme to sidetrack the demand-, of the people. Cheap, money and plenty of it was what the People’s party r anted. Dr. A. L. Nance of Hall county and W. R. Kemp of Fmanuel county were eboHcn ns electors for the state nr largo. The district elector* nominated wore: First district. Geo. II. Miller of Chatr ham. S«*«ond district. A. R. Jones of Thomaa. Third District. J. J. Tiuitt of Sumter. Fourth district. J. W. F. Little of Troop. Fifth district. W. O. Butler. Sixth di trirt. W. F. Srr ! th of Butts.

Post be made ebnirmnn of the new <-oniinittoe. The convention adopted the motion, and Post was declared elected. Post, however, has not enjoyed M* posi tion as the executive head of the Peo ple’s party in Georgia ou aceont of the severe treatment he baa received at the hands of the Democratic party, wnd positively refused to serve on the new committee. He said he wa* a Northern map. and the bad policy of his selection to the chairmanship of the temporary committee had already been proven. Tie thought some one else—a nntive born Georgian—could better make votes for the new party than he. The conven tion on second ♦ l, '' , 'crht also took this view, nnd allowed Post to decline.
