The extravagant claims of the democrats last night are to tally unfounded. The democrats have suffered a Waterloo, and the estimate made by Acting Chairman Cunningham are proven to be accu rate. Fearful frauds have been practiced by the democrats in many counties, but in spite of all this the populists made tremendous gains on the election of 1892. These gains are not made in any particular section of the state, but they' are made in almost every county. Constituencies which in ’92 re turned democratic representatives by large majorities, have swung into the populist column by heavy ma jorities. In many counties the dem ocrats have suffered a loss of 1,000 and over. Atkinson’s own county was barely saved to him. The result in many counties is so close that it will take the oflicial vote to ■ determine it. Enough is known, however, to assure the pop ulists of a heavy representation in the legislature, if not an actual mjaor ity. Hard Up. The democrats take the cake when it comes to drumming up a crowd for the governor and a United States senator to speak to, as the following will show: “Grand barbecue at Thomaston Evp/vr body cordiallFinvited to attend, es pecially ladies. Provisions will be made for the colored people. Gov. W. J. Northen and Senator John B. Gordon will be here and address the people. Foot races, bicycle races, bay races, a match game of ball and other amusements free to every body."—Thomaston Sun. “The Men Who Control.” Law and order has been defied’ and the reckless efforts of the “men who control,” in their determination to deft a*, the will of the people in Cobb county reached their culmin ating point when the notorious Judge Gober refused to apply the machinery of the law and assist the good citi zens of the county to secure an hon est election, as they had expressed their desire to have at a non-parti san mass-meeting of her representa tive citizens. The Journal has this editorial comment on Judge Gober’s action: Judge Gober made a serious mistake yesterday when he refused to hear and decide at once the mandamus suit of Mr. Joirti Sibley against the ordinary of Cobb county to compel said ordinary to allow the plaintiff to inspect the re gistration lists of the county and ob tain a copy of them. This action of Judge Gober was par ticularly unfortunate in view of the fact that a large mass meeting of citi zens of Cobb county, both democrats and populists, recently adopted resolu tions expressing in strong terms their desire for a fair and honest election. These resolutions were commended by the press of the state and express the Conviction of every honest man, what- CVU his politics may be. palpably unfair to deny Mr. i Kley the right to inspect the regis- lists and to copy them if he so aWred. The action of the ordinary cannot be justified and Judge Gober did wrong when he refused to issue a mandamus compelling him to grant Mr. Sibley's petition. We are confident that the democrats of the state do not approve any such proceeding. ft looks decidedly bad andjwill cast suspicion on the result of today’s elec tion in Cobb. Judge Gober’s postpone ment of a hearing of the case until after both the state and federal elec tions deserves the unqualified censure of all fair-minded men. Jt was aa un fortunate decision and we hope that we shall never see another like it in Georgia. DeliveraHce Will Come. The election returns indicate that at last the people of Georgia hate Wen to retake the party of false promises. Democracy has been re pudiated by the Empire State of the South, and Georgia retains her posi tion as the leader of progress and enterprise in this section of the Union. The grand victory of yes terday will be followed by a still greater one in the national election next month. The Constitution, in commenting on and trying to explain the demo- cratic Waterloo, has this to say: I The detnocAftic majority is not as I large as it «ac two years ago, but this is due to the confusion that was wrought in tycampSgn by the gokl- I bug I>u*h'■dickers who have been »OM>g attacking the state and j nutlou.l Jfktform. attacking the detno- j|F>cy. and attacking the posi tion by the d-rnocratie candi date if governor. Thus bushwhack ing—ftexpected, uncalled for ;m<i tipprevedmted undoubtedly caused mgui.? democrats to vote the populist lie .et and cooled the enthusiasm of a great many more to trie extent of causing them to remain away from the ; polls. There is no doubt that to the cam paign of “the goldbug bushwhack ers” is due the great revolt of the people. They have given the party the chance they begged for and abused after it was given them. The people realize that the democratic party is controlled by the goldbugs, that it is responsible for the falling price of cotton and the advancing price of sugar, and that no relief from present conditions can be ex pected as long as the democratic party remains in control of the gov ernment. But many voters believed that these questions can be settled only by national legislation, and that the state government was not respon sible for it and could not in any wise remedy it. Consequently they still voted for the old party in the state election while fully determined to assist in redeeming the national gov ernment from the hands of “the goldbug bushwhackers.” They will vote the people’s party ticket next month. The deliverance of the people from the throttling grasp of shylock is near at hand. The Financial Question vs. the Tariff. For generations the politicians of this country have agreed in almost every campaign that the tariff should be the issue. They have always found it a convenient bone of con tention over which the masses would easily divide. It is a question that is very complex to the average voter. It is a splendid issue upon which to appeal to sectionalism and arouse party spirit. The leaders of the democratic and republican parties have mutually agreed for so long that the tariff was the great issue in American politics that the average voter in these parties, without se riously considering the matter and without any study or investigation upon his part, has settled down to the idea that the tariff is really the issue. The politicians have one-half the people attributing all their griev- too high and the other half to the fact that the tariff is too low. The democratic campaign com mittee has just gotten out a cam paign book of 246 pages in which it devotes twelve lines or one hundred and eighty words to the silver ques tion. If we are to judge from what is here said on the subject, as to the policy of the democratic party, we are at a loss to understand how any honest free coinage man can have the faintest hope of ever getting free coinage through the democratic party. On the entire financial ques tion this compaign book contains five pages, while it devotes one hundred and eleven pages to the tariff. So it is very plain that the democrats are going to do everything possible to force the tariff to the front and try to ignore the financial question al together. The republicans are at work on the same lino and are delighted that they can fight over the same old ground. There are a great many honest democrats and republicans who can didly believe that the tariff is the great issue. For the benefit of all such we have undertaken in this ar ticle to prove the great overshadow ing question in American politics to day is the financial question, and that the tariff is secondary in every particular. The following table shows the amount of tariff paid by the aver age farmer on the necessaries of life which he buys each year. It shows the amount he would pay under the tariff law of 1861, the McKinley law, and the present demo cratic law: O H 3 'v *tj o A" O Ci O X GO CD CO < C ® <3 <S « S .•? *■ s S a g H E-( Q < Sugar 1825.001810.00 SO,OOI 87,76 Cotton Goods I 25.00 5.76 7.14 5.76 Woolen Goods! 10.00 3.20 5.83 417 i R-M’deCVth’g’ 15.00 3,46 9.98 7.50 I Hats & Caps 5.00 83 2.31 130 I Iron Goods 5.00 1.15 1.55 1.42 i Farm Impm’tsi 15.03 3.46 4.65 0.00 Shoes & Boots’ 20.00 4.61 4.00 3.33 Medicine 10.00’ 2.30 8.33 i 3.33 Furniture 10.00, 2.30 2.59 200 Crockery ' 5.09| 1.00 1.77) 1.15 ’l‘otal, SG.'I. CO 838 07 81-1,5 H 537 75 We find by examining the abu»e figures that the democrats are now camping on the same ground that the i republicans occupied thirty j ears ago, there being only 32 cents differ ence to ihe farmer under the Repub lican law of 1861, and the democratic law of 1894. The difference to the farmer between the McKinley and i present democratic law is £4.81 on ’ his yearly purchase, therefore, it must be this $4.81 thajt all this tariff racket is about. v v From this table we can sei exactly the relation in which the Vanner stands to both the old parties sKfar as the tariff is concerned. As Vie law now stands the difference to tne ! farmer between the democratic anX i republican party on the tariff ones- THE DAILY PRESS: ATLANTA. GEORGIA: THURSDAY EVENING: OCTOBER 4, 1894. ——^-^—l I - . - tion when measured in dollars . and , cents, is ♦4.81. Then the issue , when narrowed down whether the farmers will pay £21.12 tariff more t or less annually. i; When one has studied the money • | question, and sees how this same I iarnter is robbed an<l plun leredeach . year by the money power of the i world, the tariff question at once I dwindles into utter insignificance. L t us now examine into the naked ’ facts and gee how the farmer has been effected by the vicious financial legislation and robbed of Bis birth right while the politicians have been crying tariff! tiriff! “in order to drown the cries of a plundered people.” • Let us take as the average crop of I the cotton fanner ten bales weighing j 500 pounds each, a total of 5,000 , pounds We iind that the price of I cotton in 1872, the year before sliver was demonetized, wai worth from 18 to 25 cents per pound, the average price being about 20 cents. The ten bales of cotton at that time, at 20 cents per pound, would net the farmer SI,OOO. The same ten bales of cotton now at the present price of 6 cents per pound would net him £3OO. We find from these figures that somehow or somehow e'ee the cotton farmer has been robbed of 8700 on his year’s production of cot ton. The crop that he produced in 1872 cost no more labor than the crop he produced in 1894. Then why is this difference of 8700? Let us see now how it is with the wheat raker. Take 1,000 bushels of wheat as the average crop. In 1872, the year before silver was demonetized, wheat was worth from 81.65 to 82.10 per bushel. The 1,000 bushels at 81.75 in 1892 would have netted the farmer 81750. Today the price of it is fifty cents per bushel, and the 1,000 bushels brings the farmer 8500. Ila gets 81250 less for his weeat crop in 1894 than he did in 1872. Why is this? What is it that robs the farmer of this 81250? Is it the tariff? From the above facts we see that the cotton farmer paid 838.07 tariff in 1872, and received SI,OOO for his cotton crop, now in the year 1894 he pays 837.75, just 32 cents less than in 1872, and receives S3OO for his crop, a loss of 8700. The wheat farmer paying the amount of tariff as above, received 81750 for his crop in 1872, now he received 8500, a loss of 81250. In other words these farmers have been fighting over that $4.81 tariff, the difference to them between the democrats ami republicans on that question, while the money power has stealthily stepped in and robbed the cotton raiser of S7OO and the wheat raiser of $1,250. To the cot ton juemey qticfit is as issue of S7OO is above $4.81; and to the wheat raiser as $1,250 is above $4.81. When the farmers of this country study the financial question, and re alize how they have been robbed by the demonetization of silver and the destruction of the greenbacks, there will be but one issue, and that will be the money question. Democratic Hypocrisy Shown Up. In the Congressional Record of j June 23, 1894, is to be found a speech which claims to have been ( delivered by Joseph Wheeler, a so- ( called democrat, who pretends to , represent the eighth Alabama dis- ] trict. The said speech, by the priv- ] ilege granted by the house, was ] printed in the Record without being j delivered at all. In this undelivered ( speech he undertakes to review the , record of our populist congressmen in the most partial and partisan man- , ner. He left nothing undone to rid- . icule every act and wilfully distort , every fact connected with the popu- , lists’ record. He gathers together bills introduced by populists in the fifty-second and fifty-tb/cd con- , gresses, regardless of whether they were by request or not, aud after wilfully or ignorantly perverting the facts, figures that these bills, when all added together, would cull for appropriating $35,000,000,000, which he claims would have to be taxed from the people. If Mr. Wheeler had been capable, and had taken the pains to inform himself, he would liave found that these bills intro duced by populists did not call for a single dollar of taxation, but, on the other hand, proposed a plan for re lieving the people of the burdens of taxation that have been heaped upon them by democrats aud republicans for the last thirty years. The populist platform demands that o.ur circulating medium shall be i increased to SSO per capita. The i bills introduced by populists were intended to accomplish this object by the free coinage of silver and gold at the ratio of 16 to 1, and the issue of legal tender greenbacks. The oassage of one or two of these bills would have accomplished this, and at once done away with the necessity for the passage of the other bills. Mr. Wheeler well knows, if he! knows anything, that the populist; party has never advocated or de manded that our currency should be increased to more than SSO per capita. The secretary of the treas ury claims that we now have about $25 per capita in circulation. The populists demand that th’s amount shall be increased to SSO per capita (about the amount wc had in circu lation in 1866), which would require that s Ivor be coined and legal-tendtr greenbacks be issued to the amount of $1,750,000,000. The bills intro duced by populist congressmen, re ferred to by Mr. Wheeler, only con templated the issue of the above amount instead of the $35,000,000,- LOOO, as conceived only by the shriv- ; eled brain «f Mr. Wheeler. These ; eld messbaek politicians realize the fact that thty are totally unable to depend on their own treacherous records, affi] meet the ponulists in the discussion of the living issues of the day, hence they are circulating this imaginary and foolish twaddle, called a speech by Joseph Wheeler, of Alabama. Lately quite a number of people have wntten us, asking us to send them the lulls introduced by our populist congressmen. Endeavor ing to comply with th's request, we applied to the clerk of the House 1 document-joom at the capitol, and | he informs ui that the files had been i exhausted. They have been taken out by the democratic and Republi can congressmen to use on the stump 1 in ridiculing and slandeiing our party :in their usual way.' Fai ing to find | any populist bills on file, I concluded to investigate the files of the bills in troduced by the two old parlies, and behold I found something rich. The 835,000,009,000 wb ch Mr. Wheeler claims for the populist bills is not in it at all. It is not a drop in the bucket }when compared with lha amount proposed to be appropriated by the thousands of bills introduced by democrats and republicans. During the fifty-second and fifty third congresses the democrats and republicans introduced something over 26,000 bills. The record shows that more than halt of these bills called for appropriations. Without knowing wtat amount any particular bill called for, we selected the num bers of eight bills now on the calen der, had then procured these bills from ’the’ document rooms of the house and senate. This was impar tially dorid'to ascertain the average appropriation called for by the 13,- 000 or more bills introduced by democrats and republicans, calling for appropriations. The following , figures show the average : 11. It. No. 2167. A bill by Stone of Kentucky (Dem.) $ 1,936 H. R. No. 722. A bill by En- loe ot Tennessee (Detn.) 13.378 H. R. No. j 1309. A bill by Pendleton of Texas (Dem.) 4,780 H. R. 7784. A bill by Hooker of Mississippi (Dem.) . . 19,415 11. R. 397. A bill by McGann of Illinois (Dem.) . . 4,000,000 11. R. 6715. A bill by Crain of Texas (Dein.) . . 60,000 H. R. 1172. A bill by Stall- ings <jf Alabama (Dem.) . 50,000 H. R. 4728. A bill by Hicks of Pennsylvania (Bep. j . 100,000 Total called for by eight bills 4,210,536 Divide this amount by eight and we have the average to be $526,- 317.3J/'Multiply this amount by 13,000, ths,number of bills intro duced calliiw for appropriations, and we have $61542,125,550. Every dol lar of this Uiormous amount would have to be faxed from the people to build publß buildings, clean out Wi'jjks aJfwiwn., -rrrlTbsvraOiims of various kinils. We then transferred our investigations to the senate side for awhile Ind we found it richer and richer.! On the 17th day of April, 18941 we find that that vener able old (timocratic senator from Illinois, JJlm M. Palmer, introduced senate bill’ No. 1917 (see page 3), which provides as follows : 1. That the government shall loan to the people, at 2 per cent interest, three-fourths of the value of all the real estate. 2. That the government shall loan to the people, at 2 per cent interest, on one half the market value of all the wheat, corn, oats, rye, barley, hops, rice, cotton, hemp, jute, to bacco, open kettle sugar, and sugar house molasses, or the drippings from sugar, all kinds of nuts, pin dars. castoi beans, indigo, olive oil, coffee, and all kinds of dried fruit. 3. That the government shall loan to the people of incorporated cities, towns, and villages, at 2 per cent, in terest, for eowerage and other sani tary work SIOO per capita fcr their voting population. 4. That the government shall loan to the. railroad corporations three fourths of the value of al their property atj the rate of 2 per cent, in terest in order to cheapen railroad transportation, etc. 5. That the government shall offer a reward of $25,000 for the best plan of sewerage and water supply. 6. That the government shall pur cbaie all the gold and silver in the United States each year. 7. That the number of justices'of tho supreme court of the United States shall be increased to thir teen. 8. That the government shall have all this money printed at the bureau of engraving and printing at Wash- l ington, D. C., and that it shall be fiat ; money and a legal tender for all debts, both public and private. When the provisions of this bill are all figured out it shows that the , following amounts would have to be printed and loaned to the peo ple : ' 1. Three-fourths of real estate (Statistical Ab stract) - $29,658, 4qS, 249 2, One-half all farm pro ducts mentioned (Agri- curtural Report) - - 854,698,475 •3. One hundred dollars per capita to voters of townsand cities - - 364,713,400 4. Three-fourths ot value of all railroad prop erty 7,701,726,780 5. For sewerage and wa- ter supply plan (re ward) 25,00? 6. Gold and silver each year mined - - - - 106,697,000 7. Four more justices of the Supreme Court - 40,000 Total $38,685,008,904 This is d pn tty snug sum for one democratic bill, but hold on: we find that (Mi the 3d day of Novem ber, 18931 this same senator, John ■ M. PalnßT, of Illinois, introduced senate bill! No. 1152, which proposes tbaV'the government shall auoronri- ate 864,000,000,000 to deepen the channel of the Mississippi and other rivers. Going a little further we find that Senator Morgan, of Alabama, has introduced the Nicaragua Canal bill calling for 8100,000,000. L. F. Livingston, of Georgia, in troduced 11. IL bill No. 857", calling for an issue of S4O per capita an nually, or 828,524,000,000 for ten years. Mr. Miller, of Wisconsin, on February 14,1893, introduced house bill No. 10498, calling for about 828,000,000,000- Then comes the Pacific railroad bill, which proposes to reloan these reals at 2 per cent per annum $120,- 000,000, tte amount now due the government. Let us now recapitulate and see how the two old parties compare with ,1 he populists when it comes to introducing bills. Thirteen thousand bills introduced bj - the dem- it,.i ocrats and republicans during the fifty-second and fifty-third con gresses. -8 6,842,125,550 Senate Will No. 1917, by Palmer, of Illinois, - 38.685,908,904 Nicaragua bill, by Mor- gan, of Alabama, - 109,000.000 House biil No. 8577, by Livingston, of Georgia 28,534,000.000 House bill No. 10498, by .Miller, of Wisconsin, 27,466,000,000 Pacific railroad bill, - • 120,0011,000 Total, 3101,748,034,454 A great many of these bills intro duced by the populists were intro duced by request, but Mr. Wheeler did not' mention this fact. He also included the fifty-second and fifty third congresses. Therefore, in or der to be placed on equal footing with the democrats and republicans, we are compelled to do likewise— that is, include all bills introduced in the fifty-second and fifty-third con gresses; also to make no distinction between those bills introduced by re quest and those prepared by demo crats and republicans themselves. This is the only way we can be placed on equal tooting. Some dem ocrats and republicans will say that these bills we object to or hold up for ridicule were introduced by re quest. Perhaps this is true to some extent; but they ought to remember that they did not make any distinc tion in the bills prepared by populists and those introduced by request. In preparing the above statements we have been as conservative as We could, and be consistent with the facts. We have guessed at nothing, but have relied upon the records of the government for everything. J. H. Turner, Secretary People’s Party National Committee. Poor Augusta. The third party cried fraud before election ilaj'. The child booboos when punishment m t anil haloaA it is given. The yelling will bo loudeif now that the chastisement has been meted out. The above clipping is from the Augusta Herald, a thorough moss back paper published in that ante diluvian city. What it says to the detriment of the “men who control,” and blight and blast the prospects of that fair city by their political sodom ism, may be accepted as literal trutln for it is the slavish depender of their unholy methods. “The child boohoos when punish ment is threatened and before it is administered,” but not before it sees the rod or the slipper gotten out as a preparatory act. Just so “the third party cries fraud before election day,” when the refusal to agree to a division of election managers, and the fraudulent registration of igno rant Negroes by ward heelers in places like Augusta, gave unerring evidence that fraud was being con templated. How it was done in Au gusta we will give this one sample, quoted also from the Herald: Didn’t Know His Name. “Henry Winn, sah.” That name was announced at the court house early this morning by a negro man. The ballot was about to be deposited when a manager shouted that there was no such name on the registry list Mr. Edward Collins was on hand at the polls. “1 know his name. It is Henry Williams. He is from the fourth ward, registered and all right.” This was found to be correct. This vote was duly received and registered for democracy, after the poor perjurer had been christened by the generalissimo of the heelers without the formality of baptism. Now, the Herald admits, the “chastisement has been meted out,” that is the fraud which the populists apprehended, has been perpetrated, and “the yellicg will be louder.” Poor Augusta! sliackeled and de grated by an unscrupulous band of conspirators; bringing reproach upon the city and standing a stum bling block in the way of her pro gress. Twenty-five dollars in gold must be a pretty valuable affair when it takes 500 pounds of cotton to buy it. But $25 will pay no more debts or taxes than it would 25 years ago.
