HKrWittsou, and the democrats
Brvan and Sewull has been avoided
and there will be no division
between the friends of Bryan in
the western states.
This action is of immense advan
tage to the national democratic
ticket, and will surely result in
placing some of the heretofore
doubtful western States in the
Bryan column.
Western populists, as a rule, are
not middle-of-the-roaders,nineteen
out of twenty being heaitily in
favor of fusion, knowing that
their party is absolutely helpless
to accomplish anything, in a sin
gle state,when left to itself. Whar
ton Barker will be practically
unknown in these states, as his
followers are not only few in num
bers, but equally insignificant in
standing and influence,being prin
cipally cranks, extremeists and
impracticables, who are dissatis
fied with all things, united on
none, but against the balauce of
mankind on general principles.
The middle-of-the-road element
is confined almost exclusively to
the southern states, where they
have been kept iu line by a few
bosses, whose domination of their
followers is an uneolvable mystery.
This element, however, is perfectly
harmless, so far as the results of
elections are concerned, and only
has power to keep alive unneces
sary divisions and strife at home.
It is rapidly diminishing in num
bers, and will soon be a memory.
But very few people are able to
get their conseut to be bossed and
hauled around forever by four or
five men iu a county, and the
present campaign will demonstrate
that the end of the reign of these
rulers has already come.
MUST GO IT ALONE.
The State Executive committee
of the republican party has re
jected the request of the populists
for a fusion of the two parties in
Georgia, and the tail-enders must
go it alone.
This is a very serious blow to
the populists, as well us a grievous
disappointment. While it is true
that such a fusion could not ooms>
within fifty thousand votes of car
rying the state, and the average
tail-euder is fully conscious of
that fact, yet there is nothing so
miserable as a genuine middle-of
the-roader when he knows he must
go it alone. The mission of the
latter day tail-ender populist seems
to be to find some party, or organ
ization, regardless of principles, to
“fuse” or bunk up with. All that
he expects to accomplish in this
world is to mix up with anybody
who will submit to his company
and help cuss the democrats.
The best element of the old pop
ulist party, seeing the folly and
riminality of keeping up division
among the people without the
slightest chance on earth of ac
complishing anything, has re
turned to the democratic party
and been cordially welcomed back
home. There are others who per
sist in stirring up strife, by keep
ing up their organization just
simply for the sake of strife and
bitterness. Tne people have be
come tired and disgusted with this
tomfoolery, and will teach the
leaders in it a lesson that it will
take them a long time to forget,
at the October election.
Bryan stock is booming, and the
gamblers have withdrawn their
big odds on McKinley. The Irish
Republicans, who supported him
in 1896, have deserted him in a
body, and thousands of Germans
B re following suit. In 1896 only
ten per cent of the German-Amer
ican press supported the demo
cratic ticket, but now ninety per
cent, are for Bryan. The Irish
have come over because of repub
lican sympathy for the Boers in
their struggle for liberty against
Great Britain, and the Germans
on account of iheir hostility to
imperialism and a large standing
army.
VVhooper Alexander,of the coun
ty of DeKalb, who supported Seab
Wright for governor and voted
against Bryan in 1896, is not in a
position to give advce to demo
crats. As he has not been retained
sb counsel, he has no authority to
file “a plea to the jurisdiction.”
He should just sit on his tuil and
howl, with the other disgruntled
corpses.

SOME QUESTIONS.
Are you a weak-kneed Demucrat?
t t t
If you are not in favor of being
governed by the majority, what
on earth are you in favor of ?
ttt
Are you in favor of honest poli
tics and fair elections ? If so,
show your approval of the recent
primary by supporting the Demo
cratic ticket.
t t t
Arn't you willing to support
your enemy in the general elec
tion, when he has beaten you fair
ly in the primary ?
+ t t
Fellow Democrats, can you find
a single excuse for not supporting
the Democratic ticket ?
Two years from now, when the
Democratic primary is held, and
you have friends running for
office that you wish elected, do
you want to hear the people say
that you haven’t any right to
vote, as you didn’t vote the Demo
cratic ticket in 1900 ?
+ t t
Are you a true Democrat ?
t t t
Arn’t you willing to wait till
the 3rd of October before you say
that the News-Herald is wrong in
saying Populism is dead ?
ttt
Don’t you know that Gov. Can
dler will heat Traylor 75,000 ?
Won’t you admit that Sheriff
Haslett is stronger than he was
two years ago ? Hasn’t he de
feated Mr. Carroll three times,
and isn’t the third tip out ?
t t t
Haven’t you Populists heard
about Mr. Carroll wanting to come
out of the race at the camp meet
ing ?
t t t
Would you call a man that votes
for a Populist a Democrat ?
t + t
You say you are a Democrat,
how can you vote for a Populist
for any office ?
t t t
Did you Populists hear the
tramp speak ? Did you applaud
him ? If you did, read the fol
lowing from the Alpharetta Free
Press:
A sharp tramp —an outcast from
the centers of anarchy and social
ism in some of our large cities—
was in town this week talking pol
itics to who would listen. We
have no idea that he would do a
day’s honest labor for*five dollars
in cash, but he is sharp enough to
make a living with his tongue by
enlisting the sympathies of some
of his hearers.
Later—The grand jury found a
bill against the tramp for vagrancy
and Judge Gober sent him to the
chaingang for six mouths, in de
fault of a one hundred dollar fine.
THE HEALTH PROBLEM
Is much simpler than is some
times supposed. Health depends
chiefly upon pecfect. digestion and
pure blood, and the problem is
solved very readily by Hood’s
Sarsaparilla. You may kenp well
by taking it promptly for any
cures of scrofula, salt rheum,

other diseases are numbered by
the thousands.

[Sometimes the tail of a snake
will wiggle several days after it is
good dead, yet it is a corpse all
the same. The caudle appendage

under spasmodic contraction, but
there isn’t a bit more of the vital
spark left than there is in the
aforesaid snake.
Tom Watson savs the populist
party is defunct, and he will sup
port Bryan and Stevenson, but
Henry I’eep-es, Willie Carroll,
Rat Weaver and Mouse Jones say,
“Nay, Tommie, you don't know
what you are talking about, and,
besides, we always doubted your
loyalty, anyway.” Funny, isu't it?
Bryan seems to be in a “trust”
himself, although this great evil is
sevely denounced by the Kansas
City platform He is now the
nominee of the democrats, popu
lists, free silver republicans and
anti-imperialists. If this does
not look like a combination against
the g o. p. what does it resemble?
Is the iniddle-of-ihe road popu
list of today the same sort of a
populist that he was in 1892 and
1894 ? Then he favored free sil
ver, low tariff, and opposed trusts.
In 1896 he voted for McKinley,
the apostle of high tariff, and the
advocate of the single gold stand
arp, and nine cut of ten of them
will repeat the performance next
November. If a man says he favors
certain principles, and then votes
for a party opposed to all of them,
can anvbi dy have confidence in
his honesty and sincerity ?
VV. L. Peek, of Rockdale countv,
the whilom “leadinest” and most
enthusiastic populist iu the state,
has declined the nomination of
his party for the state senate from
his district, and the convention
must meet again and seek for
some one else who is hankering
after martyrdom “Willie’’ has
more sense than some others of
the “Old Guard” in this county.
He knows when he has a plenty,
and is also acquainted with a
corpse, when he sees and smells it,
and has kicked it about and rolled
it over to make sure of his diag
nosis.
