FELTON DEMURS ToTfro Constitution's Criticism of His Position. Near CartemviUe.Ga., Sept 5.- Ed itor Constitution : I And two edito rials In your issue of September 3d, that specially interest me One is headed “Bc*wa: , e of False Prophets,” the other “Southern Farmers Not Responsible.” In addition to this I find an invitation from you in|thee words: “Silver has dropped and cotton has dropped, as Dr. Felton says, but is 1 there the fain tost* shadow of an ex cuse here for adopting a policy which would intrench the republicans in [ower which would perpetuate the great orimeof si]vcrdenuftiet.Ration which would insure the success ol the force bill selieme which would divide and destroy the social snd political organization of tlie south? ' “If f>r. Felton can find that excuse, let him write- it out andoend it to the Constitution, so that the people of the south may know definitely who they are to surrender to republi canism.” You indirectly call me a “false prophet,” because I told Mr. W G. <loo pel that I held the national demo cratic pa- ty responsible for “perpetu ating the groat crime of silver demon etization,” and therefore I should not vote for Grover Cleveland the man who sought to suspend the coinage of silver when he was president, and whose whole administration repre sented a fight on the silver dollar -a coin so dear to the common people. In yonr review of The Financial Chronicle, in your other editorial, I find tin- following: “But, when the editor goes on to i place the responsibility of ‘our silver j legislation,'and the situation that is i assumed to he the result of It, on the southern planters, we must enter an emphatic, protest, The planters of the south are not responsible, either directly or indirectly, for what the Financial Chronicle calls in a large way ‘our silver legislation.’ ” 1 flatter myself that I am still a free man in a republic and permitted to make choice of a candidate for the responsible office of president.. Asa private oßisen never expecting to offer for or hold another public office during the remainder of my life, I trust I shall not he hold up as a de- J oeiver in the public prints when Igive an opinion upon tlie present political situation in the privacy of my own home, as my honest convictions die late. Ido not agree with the Finan cial ( hroplvle when it holds southern planters respuiisiblo H/r silver leg!sia- Von. You were prompt to deny tlie allegation. I thank you for it. .South oiu planters are the principal suffer er*. They %grcc with you kwa you declare g “irfce coinage measure would have been a taw” that “would restore to silver its historic funcCtoiis and to an equality before tlie law with gold,” but they do not agree with you when you say that “Wall street and the re publican party are alone responsible” fir advcfsfi silver legislation in the present congou* laical polities ill tlie statu t> trivial, compared to congressional legislation, which deals with a question that is powerful enough to send gold abroad in such immense volume, and which has sent cotton and silver bullion down to almost zerq prices, because of this drain of gold and tlie lvv price of our great staple. There were an immense number of democrat* elect ed to the present house of represen tatives. I understand there are 838 members in all 240 democrat* ami nlnety-twO republicans giving the democrat* a clear majority of 148. The democrats were elected to repre-: sent southern plant ess as well as bloated bondholders and western grain producers The south had a right to expect the democratic party in congress to vote for the free coin age of silver ami we saw a majority , in congress sufficient to have carried any democratic measure through the house of representatives and also a two thirds majority sufficient to have .carried any measure over President Harrison’s veto. I wish to impress this fact upon your notice. Two hundred and fortv demo crats were more than two-thirds of a membership of *i2, and a two-thirds vote, you are aware, will carry any measure over the executive's veto. No one will dispute such numbers A republican senate passed the free eoinage measure. Ah ! but I am told it was oarriw} by a minority of repub licans combined with a majority of democratic senators. That Is true, but another fact is significant, that the republican party did not have the power to compel Its member*.;;:,, •<• the senate to defeat the Stewart bill. A republican senate, the president’s mainstay and his reliarce to carry out the principles of his party pass ed the free coinage hill, and sent it oveifto the house with its H 8 demo cratic majority.

Let us see what Georgia planters did in this matter. When the state met in convention at Atlanta to select delegates to Obi- wss expressly commanded that a candidate Yor president should l>e selected who Would carry out the <lemovable polidy of free coinage of siivcjr Two candidates had striven to/win the support of Georgia demo /rats, David Bennett Hi)l and Grover Cleveland, and Cleveland won; but 1 his .delegates were, nevertheless, pledged to free eoinage and friend!y legislation for southern planters. You know thXresult Cleveland was placed on the track to make the race. I saw no end on trouble in the future and it has eofiA;. -Still I hoped there was patriotismx nough in the present con gress whith hod been elected to pass a free measure to give us re lief bcfore/Orover Cleveland went in jto the wb/te house, if'elected in No vember j , • But 6hen I saw democratic con grcsHijfrn falsify their pledges to Die people, to oblige Grover Cleveland and Wall street, I resolted to stand and if called upon, to toll my neighbors that I could not vote for a man ti at had brought this financial ruin upon Georgia farmers. I had fondly hoped that the democratic party was greater than any man claim ing allegiance to that party, but it was evident when the democratic con vention assembled at Chicago, that Wall street and its agent, Grover Cleveland, captured tlie whole con cern, “horse, foot and dragoons.” They adopted a platform that is at variance with nearly every interest of southern planters. And, when a demo cratic house of pepfCsentativeH was presented with a free coinage bill it was (lt'inonsti'M.t4ij that Wall street hud not only captured the candidate, hut tlie national democratic party. Tic- financial ruin I hat overspread t he , country last year stared those con gri-ssmcn In the face They were en treated to remember tlie distress at j home I scanned the papers day by day for a sign that congress appreci ated our condition. The unrest, the strikes, railroad bankruptcy, the pov erty, the suffering in the south, all appealed in piteous tones to these j reproach tut'yes in Washington. Nor i them democrats had piped and we had daneod ever since the war. They managed the democratic party; reaped its official benefits and we did the voting. Now we asked for relief, for succor, by giving us more silver dol lars the constitutional dollar that has been a royal good dollar where ever the flag floats and when we asked for meal t hoy gave us q scor^ \\ bat wo FKv*, ail fxVft' ers, with cotton at 8 cents and Still plunging downward in company with silver bfilljon, for such catch-penny phrases as “Southern Unity,” “White Supremacy,” “Force Bills," or threats i of “Negro Domination,”, which have lost their power to* mislead any man ol common intelligence and fairness ? To offer such threadbare pretenses to an anxious and suffering constitueney is to give a stuff*, v, they ask for bread! 1 It is now apparent that the present cotton crop will sell for the lowest figures. As the Financial Chronicle , stales, “this silver legislation is the : cause of the large part of depression whicl[ e(fists today,U Mr. Editor, it may be policy to whoop up the boys for the hope of postmastorships, deputy marshals and other fixed salaried olllces, but I toll [ you there is no enthusiasm left in the bone find smew of the country—the men who hnvp plowed these lands, j fenced these fields, built our homes, erected our churches and school houses and made this country all it is in progress and prosperity. A great many ff tfftef* grenp. qff and : joined the Farmers' Alliance two years ago, seeking relief, but they were be troyod by unscrupulous men, who stopped on their sliflulden into con gross, kicking them down a* soon as they were rewarded lor their dastard ly betrayal. But the time is coming when labor will be listened ip and its demands will bo respected. The laborer's toll i has produced every dollar’s worth of property in the country. Their fideli ty ami honesty is the safeguard of the republic. Mound to the soil, they; bear the burdens of taxatiou and fight our battles They are seeking relief hy constitutional methods; they claim their birthright of governing in a (and which thujgl;nye enriched. They have a right to complain, a vested right. You tell these men that they have >‘tmt one NiftCwHirsp tp pursue, and that is to put the democratic party in power,” A cry is raised all over the land, “Pnt democrats in office and 1 limy wHJ agvf fpii J” What have they done heretofore but put dennjesats in office? A party that commands its followers without roferenoe to the, principles It espouses or its want of: principles in congress, stands in s po sition that makes it unnecessary for me, and impossible in the very nature of things, to slate a reaaoil that would be satisfactory to the demo- cratic partisans for any action that would antagonise party success. Ido not make this statement in an offeu sive sense, but tnere is but one argn ment advanced tn the present cam paign that is, “sta- and by the dtuuo. cratie party." How long must they barter their convictions and their manhood, continuing to place in ppw er certain meg whom 1 conscientious, ly- believe have brought upon us this irsin of disaMer* by depressing the Industries of the country 1 Wood pub ties means protection U* life and prop- erty. Southern planters find their property unprotected, while a perpet ual demand is made for taxes and cus tom duties Mr. 1 leveiand's friends make boast tk.it he paid out morc pensioo money than any preeideti' before or after him. You give me a friendly lecture and call on me to write out my reasons for “surrender ing to r?publicaA*m.” In reply, I wodld ask vou to give me a reason for allowing the demo cratic party to* out Ilerqd Herod in this outrageous pension business? What relief can we expect when the democratic party selects ns its stand ard hearer a man pledged to the great crime of silver demonetization ? What relief from in mopolies can we expect when Cleveland is cheek by jowl with , the great Standard Oil monopoly for is not Mr Whitney”* wealth repre- j soiled by the pTfiftto o\jhe Standard Oil Company ? What hope have tax payers when Mr. Cleveland, as presi dent, loaned over sixty millions of their tax money to his favorite banks aqd hankers for a trifle of interest? Wfiat hope have we in the pension business, when he made southern democrats adopt a platform at Chica go that “appreciates” the services of the soldiers and sailors in the federal army in “preserving the union;” therefore, the democrats are willing to pay out one hundred and fifty mil lion per annum to federal 'Veterans ? I, for one, do not “appreciate” worth a cent, l can submit, because X am ol liged to do it, hat the rack couldn’t extort from me any such a confession os this word “appreciate” implies. I claim to he a Jeffersonian demo crat. I expect to die on®; but I will never attempt to crowd the broad 'muscular democracy of Jefferson in to this hide-hound Cleveland jacket While I took pleasure in denouncing the republican party for demoneti zing silver in 1873, I should despise myself for endorsing Grover Cleve land, who perpetuated the great crime of silver demonetisation in 1892 Tl.e very essence of good govern ment is freedom of tnought, freedom of speech, freedom of action, freedom of discussion and a free ballot. Ala bama and South Carolinia present ex am pies of the reaction that follows tyranical party domination. “Count ing out,” and “counting in” are dan gerous methods in politics. In Ala bama the democratic party went into the black belt to find a majority for Governor Joues, Such majorities as he counted It are staggering when compared to democratic abuse of re construction politics. You know and I know there could be no force bill that wuuid give more liberty to n® groes than Governor June's campaign in Alabama. And Grover Cleveland mmhihaste *o congratulate tills tri tnfipff of i£gr<* vuflfe Over the - whtoN farmers of the State? The colored vote will decide the state election In Georgia. The can didates are appealing for it already How silly then to say the defeat of (-rover Cleveland would “destroy the social and political organization of the South!” Ten years ago if a governor had made boast of his elec tion by negro votes over the white men of Alabama, he would have been socially ostraoised, no matter ft t party ho belonged to Look at South Carolinia! Democrats held a state primary to select a governor and state house officers. Offices were bought of the lenders at bo much a head! pistols, knives, oaths, aU playi-d their part. The old time political organization, that elected Hampton and counted in Hays not only showed its cloven foot, but its very solid anatomy, from head to foot And it is safe to sav that a rc i pub!loan scramble for stale offices un der similar circumstances would have been jeered at with unquestioned hate and ferocity all over the South. The Tjefftmug i qaiq tq be vain of his broad feathers until he looks down at 4i(s ungainly feet, We are now coufcriUHt to And out what par ties stand upon rather than their boastful pretensions and uiaimsto in fallihilttv. If this republic endures, the time is coming when intelligence and com mon sense will repudiate shotguns at the polls and ballot ho* frauds. To disagree . with Grover Cleveland’s politics is hardly sufficient to imply that I have “surrendered to republi canism, 1 but 1 should feel that I had surrendcred-to the same sort of a po litical machine If I should condone the deft? it of the free coinage bill to which the democratic party was pledged, because Grover Cleveland was nominated and he hoped td get campaign assistance from the money kings In Wall street. 1 trust you will tell your readers if the pat) peri ration of Georgia farmers, caused by the deinouetixstion of sil ver will be more palatable under 1 Cleveland or Harrison. It appears to me as if centralised capital hfts put out two tutudidaios fur ini own safety. Hit or miss, it is sure of its own. 1 expect you to tell me that southern congressmen voted, against Cleveland’s dictation, for the free coinage of silver- Why then are they shoutiug themselves hoarse to re-elect Cleveland to vote any future bill for free coinage? I expect you to reply that the Chiuaga platform favors free coinage under restrictions that are not clearly defined in the platform, but can be discovered in the vicinity of Walt street, If SO cents of silver bullion van be added to the present dollar, thereby abstracting 30 cents from every dollar's worth of cotton, grain and other farm product*, the Utaveiaad men age is are willing, of course- But what is the matter with j the dollar of our fathers the dollar that ha* been the or the g* W dollar, to l*ay all dura public and j private? It is a deliberate conspiracy on the part of those enjoying fixed salaries of large incomes from speculative pursuits, to mass the purchasing power of gtfcl niach greater than tliat of silver, and to tlfiod this pountry with disaster and bankruptcy that they may buy In the property exposed to sale, for little or nothing Silver is now practically demonetized by the refusal of the pr sent house of representatives to order its free coinage. There is no silver coinage in the United States today at its mints. The raw bullion is being deposited and eeititi iitosare being issued thereon. Vail street desires toretire even the limited volume of greenbaeks in present circulation, substitute therefor naJ nal bank bills In a few years unless there is powc r in the land to restore freedom to the laboring classes gold will Ire the single standard of value and the only legal tender known to the people of the I nited States. The Chicago platform, with Grover Cleveland to execute its will, proposes to flood this country with state bank paper that can never he made a legal tender for any debt in this country, because the states have no power to make anything legal tender, except gold and silver coin. The general govermeut alone has power to coin money. In me name of justice and reason, contemplate the coining doom of ag ricultural laborers and producers in I this country. Having paid oil' the farmers in state bank issues with gold the only legal tender for debts under this Cleveland policy and the only standard of value known to the country! With all that gold in the banks and vaults of Wall street and its sub-agencies scattered throughout ’the union! My God knows, I shrink from the contentplation of human suffering when that fearful ex'.reality is reached! and this is the policy ot Grover Cleveland! Ido not impeu li the honesty of our so them congress men. The party lash has been cracked over their heads until they are bewildered as to their duty to the people they represent. I ,pi| a farmer. I speak from that (Standpoint. You told us in an edito rial that one hundred and eighty millions of dollars were lust tq southern planters on last year’s cotton crp. Cotton opened last year at 0 and 10 ce ts. This year it opens at 6] cents. Where will it s'op in its down ward course? May the Father pity the hard-working man that is thus being ruined that the democratic and repub lican parties may contend for the favor of these “money kings'’ in the coining election! In yegterdfUf’** Oqnstitutlon you re port Atlanta’s, wealth at fifty-seven miKiu&e *f !st*“Mie wealth of the state. It is probable that ot her cities are keeping pace with this ab normal growth. You n>ny nqt And it difficult to understand the decrease in rural districts. In the cities hanks and centralized wealth congregate they grow by accretion—not by pro duction. They promise to absorb all valtius in a limited space of time. As the cities expand, pari passa, the ag ricultural homes dwindle and decjjy. It is the catch-word ot the day to call fanners, laborers and the general workman of the county “ealamaty howlers.” These men whose lines are cast iu hard places, are forced by severe and constant toil tq their families under those adverse cir cumstances. These cities are the consumers of other people’s labor and the gatherers of the fruit of other people’s toil. Consumers and produ eers are necessity ta the \yeil being of each uiner. Asa lover of my coun try, I warn you there must be g.,mo thing done to assist t’<u) fund popula tion or tltWO wUI ho untold confusion and perhaps disaster. As the foun tain dries up, the stream will disap pear. Yuu may call me a “false pro phet.” but I fool that 1 am an honest one. The time was when Noah was called a false prophet, but the flood was not hindered thereby. The royal money lords of France felt safe in power and arrogance, hut the guillo tine reached their necks, nevertheless, during the revolution. If I mistake not The Constitution congratulated its readers that Geor gia had a small army of soldiers at this time,‘mobilized and ready to start when the drum tapped. Tennnessee, New York, Pennsylvania Idaho have all had troops in action within the past thirty days. Theoretically the people govern, but the bayonet is the popular protection at this time There is no rebelion of states, no treason abroad, no invasion by foreign troops, but there must be a valid rea son for such warlike demonstration. I expcted to do nothing and say nothing in this campaign. By with, holding my vote from the democratic candidate I shH obey Uie dictated of my oonaetmM>e and my doty to those dependent on me. Since you heralded me as a “false prophet,” I thank you for an opportunity of defending my position as a free man and a responsible citizen. While I am not a third party man, I cannot reproach them for opposing this Cleveland movement, ainee they saw the action of the democratic majority in congress. For twenty-six years they have been loyal to the democratic party of the south. They were restless two yours a*vj and 1 begged them to wait, for one more trial, one more chance for sympathy if not relief from the domooraUf j part)'. They have been grossly devolved by hotitious promises, they have been basely betrayed by their chosen leaden in many cases. I cannot wonder at the unrest and discontent. They are seeking relief and all th • comfort t hey gel from the . democratic party is “vote for Cleveland.” T co .Id not vote for Weaver, because I do not endorse his railroad and subtrees®ry schemes; bdl I never will vote for either Harrison or Cleveland, the viee rrgents yt Wall street Very truly. William H. Fklton. Misrepresentations and Tom foolery. There are many misrepresentations concerning the respective parties of Harrison and Cleveland in this l aiu i paign. Let us take one item in con n ction w ith the silver dollar. Democratic speakers are announc ing from every stump that the free | coinage of silver would only increase 41 r currency thirty cents per capita in the I nited States. Do they believe the people to lie fools ? Do t hey not understand that the free coinage of s’lver, if confined to the annual silver production of this epuntry, would give from fifty to sev enty millions of dollars per annum? They allege that foreign silver would pour into this country for free coin - age, thus adding millions more to the circulation of the American silver dollar. Do they not know that this influx would continue for an in definite term of years ? In ten years one billion of silver dollars would be added to the coin of this country. Candidate Maddox now tells us tliat “silver is now dead no issue but the tariff.” He gives evidence that he will go to Washington to obey Cleve land and further plunge every farmer in Georgia deeper into poverty, bank ruptcy and ruin. Every fanner in Georgia that supports Maddox or Cleveland deliberately votes to keep his cotton down to five and six cents a pound; and liberately votes to impov erish his own wife and children; de liberately votes to pauperize the farm ers to build up money kings and speculators. Don’t he deceived. If you support Maddox you deliberately agree to bury silver and support the demands of Wall street Listen, firmers! You da not desire to keep yourselves in serfdom to Wall street and the money sharks. The People’s party is pledged to economy; to low tariff: to free coinage; to better times; to regulation of rail roads; to a graduated income tax; to the abolition of the national hanks; to more money and less misery. •The two old parties stand pledged to a continuation oft he' present system, by which, capital robs labor of its just dues; is pledged to support the Nicarauga canal swindling scheme; tdfenpport the Chicago world’ p> ctmtiime the i.daiouus national banWiug systepi. In short, the two qld parties do not propose a change at all. Alliance ;Miss.) Vindicator.

We eantion the voters of Georgia against those in that State or elsr - where who invent lies and start all manner of infamous falsehoods intended to canse the people to mistrust, those who are so unselfishly trying to help the people to better the conditions, their homes, tbeir families and the country. When the leaders of any party resort to lies as well as to votes, and then propose to lug in clnbs, knives and other weapons for use against those who are' real friends of the people, the inference is that loafers instead of statesmen, and ignorance rather than intelligence arc crowding to the front on partisan lines. Honest causes need iiomolx or violence to advance them. Advance Thought. A special from Calhoun to the At lanta Journal of the 13th fast, says : The Third Party met at the court house here bpsurday and nominated John W. Love for ordinary, C. P. Nel son clerk of the superior''court, Z. F. Wilson tax receiver, It. 11. Pittman tax collector, J. H. Harmon sheriff, S. M. Dillard treasurer. A Third Party apostle named Miller was nominated for coroner, but refused .to accept. General P. M. B. Young spoke and re marked that it was better for them to have no coroner and let a democratic coroner officiate at the Third Party’s death. Colonel Rankin spoke also. A great sensation has just been created iu Paris by a rich man with nothing to do. He has actually caused a mail coach to be constructed after the pattern of a hundred years ago, and he has driven it to Trouville on a dea.T run. He was accompanied by Hufforn Tailor. This return to antiquity is almost as important as if somebody should construct a steamboat on the model of Robert, Fulton’s “Clermont,” and operate it on the Hudson River.

AN APPLE ORCHARD. Some valuable suggestions made by Proffessor Lazenby at an Ohio Horti cultural meeting were as follows: Never plant deeper than the tree stood in the nursery row. Never oinit applying a mulch to young trees if there is the slightest danger of drought, Never forget that low, stout 1 not stunted) trees are preferable to tall slender ones. Never forget that a hardy, vigor ous, productive variety, of medium quality, infinitely more dcsireable than a feeble-erowing-ahv-bearing variety of much better quality. Never buy a large number of vari eties for a strictly commercial or chard. This is a common and seri ! ous mistake. Five varieties are usually too many;' three are better, j and a single one may prove to be tho ; best of all. Never Util to have a succession of i apples for home use. For this pur pose a few trees each of a somewhat i larger list of varieties may be selected.
