DU BIQNON’s STRONG ADDRESS. Chairman Dußignon in assum ing the duties of permanent chair man of the convention, spoke as follows: “Gentlemen of the Convention, my indisposition and the of business which awaits your action, alike forbid that 1 should scarcely do mole than thank you for this renewal of your confidence and to assure you that it will be my earnest endeavor to deserve it. (Applause.) “Recent events, however, impel me to congratulate you, and i through you the state upon the [conditions, politically, that sur round you. For years, it must have been apparent to every re flecting mind that the greatest j possible calamity which could be- [ fall one of our southern states [ would be a serious and permanent, division upon the question of j white citizenship. (Applause.) j Some of our sister commonwealths have experienced this to their sor-! row, and at one time it was threat ened in Georgia. But, happily, the blow was averted, and today the white people of Georgia, po litically, are more closely and firmly united than they have been in yearß (Applause.) “What a happy conclusion may we not draw frem this fact. It means peace and tranquillity, progressive, enlightened govern ment at home, and it means throughout all its departments the supremacy of virtue and in telligence. (Applause.) If there ever existed a cause for the com plaint that in some respect the government of the state was re moved from the people, that day has passed, and now throughout all of its departments in all of its ramifications, the undistracted will of the people rules supreme. (Applause.) In Georgia, at le.ist, controlled aud directed by the democratic party, we have in ef fect, in practice, and in name, a government ‘of the people, by the people and for the people.’ (Ap plause. ) This result, my fellow democrats, has not been from blind chance. To the democratic party alone is due the credit. Al ways the true party of the people, it has attentively heeded their every demand and conformed the law of the state to their every wish. “Firm in our political faith, we face the issue of another great natioual contest. As a political party we must recognize the ex igencies off'the hour. The persist ent and immeasurable greed of the republican party haß worked it natural, its inevitable effects. Innumerable trusts, combinations aud syndicates ars enthroned at the national capitol, and that baleful influence today threatens not only the honor and character of our institutions, but their very existence itself. “The importance of the impend ing national contest cannot be overstated. New and grave issues are presented upon the wise solu tion of which depends in a great measure, the fature of this repub lic. Recent observations lead me to believe and hope that in this impending contest there will be a mighty awakening; that the American people will realize that the structure of this government is in danger; that the republic really means class government, the repudiation of constitutional limitation, and the oppression of I great masses of the people for the ! agrandizement of a favored class; i that the American people realize that today the country is involved in a carnival of corruption which threatens destruction to the re publican party, and that through out this land, from one end to the other, there will be a revival of those principles of justice, amity, honesty, economy and self-govern ment that have made the name of Thomas Jefferson immortal and are today the fundamental and cardinal doctrines of the demo cratic party.” (Continued ap plause.)

The Democracy of Georgi in | convention assembled indorse our i state administration and commend : our chief executive, and each of | our state officials for their wise, j patriotic and economical udminis j tratiou of the state’s affairs. Their : unanimous nomination and their [certain re-election will be hut a justly deserved tribute to their fi delity and integrity. 2. We congratulate the people of Georgia on the present system i of public schools, inaugurated and ■brought to its present state by the Democratic party, and we pledge the best efforts of the party to a continuance of the same. 3. We favor an amendment to the constitution of Georaia limit ing the power of the General As sembly to levy and assess tax es, for anv purpose whatsoever, ex ceeding a specified percentum, ex cept for the purpose of suppress ing insurrection, repelling inva sion and defending the state in I time of war. 4. We believe in ballot reform, and favor the enactment of such i measures as will secure honest i elections, and believe that such safeguards should be thrown around the exercise of the elective tranchise as will secure the free aud intelligent expression of the will of the voter. 5. We favor an amendment to the federal constitution providing for the election of United States Senators by the direct vote of the people. 6. We are in favor of the im mediate construction and control of the Nioaraguan canal by the United States. 7. We re-affirm aud renew our belief in the allegiance to the prin ciples of Democracy as contained and enumerated in the national Democratic platform of 189(5, aud we denounce the Republican legis lation in Congress whereby the single gold stanuard has been fas tened upon the people, for the time being, we hope, aud the con trol of the currency has beeu turned over to the national bauks, whereby the greatest aud most op pressive of all trustB —the money trust —has be m created to feed upon the labor aud industries of the people, and to add to the wealth and power of a favored class, whose greed is insatiable. 8. The collection of war taxes in time of peace should be discon tinued, and we demand the repeal of the war revenue tax act. 9. We view with alarm the mul tiplication of those combinations of capital, commonly known as trusts, that are concentrating aud monopolizing the indusaries of the country, crushing out the inde pendent producers of limited means, destroying competition, re straining the opportunities for la bor, artificially limiting produc tion and raising prices, and we em phatically declare our opposition to all such unlawful combinations, and demand the enactment of such laws, both state aud national, as will uid in the destruction of these 1 great combinations aud trusts. 10- Public taxation should not be imposed for private purposes; we, therefore, adhere to the doc- 1 trine of a tariff for revenue only. 11. We are convinced that the protective tariff system is the hot bed that lias produced these vast numbers of trusts and combina tions, and we demand that they be suppressed by the repeal of the protective tariff and other privil ege-conferring legislation respon sible for them. 12. The power of the nationul congress to regulate interstate and foreign commerce, if honestly ex ercised by the enactment of laws for the suppresfiou of' trusts and the faithful and efficient execution of such laws, together v. ith the ac tive enforcement of such laws as the states mav enact against such unlawful combinations and trusts in their own borde rs, will put an end to the danger from the growth of these great combinations and trusts. 18. We hold that the constitu tion of the United States was wise ly ordained and established for an intelligent, liberty-loqingand self goveruiniug people, and cannot be successfully applied to a people of another hemisphere, who, from eacial and geographical conditions, can never be assimilated with our selves or educated up to our stan dard of citizenship; and who cau never be safely incorporated iuto an equal participation with our selves in our free system of govern ment. We therefore hold that the imperialistic policy of the present Republican administration j which contemplates schemes of couquest iu accordance with Brit ish theories and practices, is con trary to the theory of our govern ment, and subversive to those great principles of civil liberty which we have been taught to cherish, and which are necessary to the preser vation of our free institutions. We oppose the maintenance of large standing armies, necessary for the subjugation and continued domi nation of distant, peoples, and which is a standing menace to the personal liberties of our own peo ple, impoverishes the people with vast public expenditures, creates hordes of officials to rule over peo ple who should be permitted lo rule themselves, disregards the principles of the declaration of in dependence and materially changes the nature of our republican form of government. 14. The action of the Republic an congress in denying to the Por to Ricans the Btatus of citizens of the United States, in passing a law, in passing a law imposing tar iff taxes upon the products of Por to Rico different from those im posed in the United States, and in the establishment of a government in that island, whereby its people are denied the right to govern their own local affairs, and to se lect their own local representa tives, demands the condemnation of all people who love self-govern ment, and is the demonstration of a purpose of the Republican party if given an additional lease of pow er to convert this republic into an empire. 15. We favor all legitimate and practical means for the expansion of our trade and the development of foreign markets for our pro ducts, manufacturing and agricul tural, but we deny that the acqui sition and domination of lands in a distant hemisphere are necessa ry or conducive to this end. On the contrary, the present marvel ous and rapid development and growth of our commerce both in Europe and in Asia, where we own no territory, demonstrate that our tjade with foreign peoples will steadily and surely expand and de velop and increas in proportion as our products exceed iu excellence and cheapness similar products of other countries. And our trade upon this secure basis can be begt promoted by the arts of peace and the happy influences of friendly relations, rather than through the harsh and hostile agencies of war. 10. We commend the signal loyalty and valor of our soldiers and sailors in the performance of every military duty to which they have been assigned by proper au thority, however much we may de plore the policy of the administra tion now directing their move ments i and we pledge to them our hearty support and sympathy un der all circumstances wherever en gaged. 17. We demand that the 10 per cent tax on state bank issues be repealed, so as to permit a system of local stato banks, under such restrictions and by the deposit of such securities as will absolutely protect persons dealing with them. 18. The Democracy of Georgia favors the nomination of William Jennings Bryan, of Nebraska, for President of the United States,and the delegates of this state are here by instructed to unite with the De mocracy of the other states of the union in making such nomination. 1(1. Confident in the correct ness of these principles and poli cies, we cordially invite all voters, irrespective of past party affilia tions, to join with us iu our effort to give relief to the people.

To tile Senate and House of Representatives: Having on former occasions, brought the question of farther re striction of cotton planting to the attention of the General Assembly, I feel a delicacy in again recurring to that subject. The present prices of provisions, and the great impor tance of securing a continued sup ply of the necessaries of life, are tny excuse for again earnestly rec ommending that the law be so changed as to make it highly pcu-j al for any person to plant orculti- j vate in cotton more than ono quar ter of an acre to the hand, till the end of the war. This additional restraint is not necessary to control the conduct of the more liberal und patriotic! portion of our people; but, there are those who, for the purpose of making a little more money, will | plant the last seed allowed by law, without stopping to enquire wheth er they thereby endanger the lib-1 erties of the people and the inde pendence of the Confederacy. To control the conduct of this class of persons, n: d to the extent of our ability to provide against the possible conting-ncy of a fail ure of supplies in future, .1 feel it to be an imperative duty, avaiu to urge upon your consideration the importance of the legislation übnve recommended.

Journal, wStvj Only sl.£S. ij VOL. VII. NO 35 A Tsll-ths- Truth Editor. A western editor, who believes in telling the truth, printed the fol lowing recently: Willie Shortlike and Annie Bloomers were married at tho church last evening. The church was prettily decorated with flowers and potted plants, borrowed p ro * miscuously from over the town from people who didn’t want to lend them. The decorating was done under protest by some of the members* of the church who were asked to do so by the bride, and couldn’t well refuse. The ladies are of the opinion that if the (couple were so bent on having a stylish wedding they should have been willing to have paid some one to oliase all over the town for a day getting flowers together and then taking them home again. "The bride wore a handsome Silverstein gown (made at home), and the groom was decked out in a $lO hand-nie-dcwn suit. The* ushers wore cutaway coats, bor rowed for the occasion. Sallie Potts was maid of honor, and the concensus of opinion was that she was 2 to I better than the bride. The young couple took the morn ing train for St. Louis, where they will spend more money in a few days than Willie can earn in three months. "Willie says that now lie’s mar ried he’s going to settle down. Some of our merchants think it would have been better if he had settled up first. The groom gets a salary of $27 a month, which is about the allowance Annie has been used to for pin money. We wish for Willie’s sake, that the old saying that it takes no more to support two than one wasn’t a lie. | J “The bride sent ub a shoe bon ' full of a conglomeration of stuff supposed to Vw cake. If this is a sample of Annie’s cooking we feel sorry for Willie. Our janitor’s dog fell heir to the cake, aud now he’s lying iu the cold, cold ground. But this is done of our funeral. | If Willie and Annie are satisfied wo’ve got no kick coming.”—ln dianapolis News. DOES IT PAY TO BUY CHEAP?
