BREAK THE CHAINS. Go to the Records and Learn Wisdom. Editor Southern Alliance Farmer: You know we People’s Party fol lowers entertain very little confidence in the old parties, as many of us north and south have left those sinking ships and taken refuge upon the People’s Party platform. This seems very nat ural for a man that thinks and believes as we do. But my surprise is that the democratic papers and speakers evi dence so little faith in our congress men. Every democratic paper sets forth in bold, type the dangers of the force bill if Harrison is elected, and sets forth democratic claims for the support of Cleveland or a stronger democrat for president. Is all this be cause they w r ant a man for president who has sufficient influence to control this Congress and succeeding Houses to keep them from passing force bills? The democrats in the House have a majority of 148 in the lower house and are only lacking of nine being equal in the Senate, Yet the democratic speak ers keep prating about a force bill. Are they ready to do like us, say we cannot trust the boys at Washington? It is true they went off on the silver bill, but surely they will not pass a force bill when their friends south are so bitter against it. But for the education of some who were like myself before I learned bet ter, the laws are not made either by the Senate or Lower House, but by a mutual agreement of both bodies. The House introduces bills and the Senate either kills, amends, or passes such bills. Senate bills pass that House (congress) to take action, the lower body either kills, amends, or pass such bills. In case either House refuses to concur in the amendments offered by either body to their respective bills, then a committee is appointed from both Houses and said committee agree and carry their agreement to their re spective bodies and said bodies agree, then it becomes a law; so you see neither Senate or House make laws, but only when both agree. Now if our democrats afraid that a force bill will be put upon the people, of whom are they afraid. Is it the eighty-eight republicans in the House or the 236 democrats. The democrats have been in power for sixteen years in the Lower House and at one time they controlled both Houses, and did they offer any bills to repeal those obnox ious and pernicious laws upon our statute books. If any democrat can show such bill upon record well might they say “Give us a chance.” I hope they may be able to sit on the fence and see the procession go by. All men everywhere should call upon them for the records and have them show you where they have even intro duced any matter into the House for the protection of the laboring masses. With a population of 62,000,000 peo ple, with 420 representatives in Con gress what do we find? 268 lawyers, 39 farmers and the others are from the judge’s bench, pulpit, railway officers, etc. I fear our Congress is only a court for fees. Democrats, if you are so afraid of your men, come over and join us, for our men have promised to do better than they did in the old parties, for they promise to vote for measures and not for men or party. Whosoever that will forsake the error of his way and come promising to do better will be enrolled on our books, and if he is faithful we will fellowship him and go on our way rejoicing. Democrats, you self-righteous fel lows, go to the records and then repent. A. W. Ivey. Can’t Get It. Editor Southern Alliance Farmer: I see in the Saturday Journal that Alex. W. Bealqr has taken a hand in politics, and that he is surprised that he Alex. W. Bealer, has not received letters asking him to make the race for congress, any one else can see, and that he has heard but little of the Third Party in the State of Georgia, and where it has shown any sign of vital ity, that it was on the run with its toes this way. And its dead that way. Well if Mr. Bealer had been at Jefferson Saturday, June 4th, 1892 he would have found the People’s Party was on the run, but running everything their way. They have so far been able to run the ring bosses out of the Bealer Journal stripe. In the meeting at Jefferson, there ■was over eight hundred people, and consisted of what Mess Journal & Co., would call the hay-seed one gallus crowd, or the ones who should stay at home more, work harder and eat less. The crowd was nearly solid for Peo ple’s Party. Hon. Thad Pickett spoke for an hour in the interest of People’s Party, and was loudely cheered. After him Col. W. I. Pike, spoke half an hour trying to show wherein the democratic party has not been responsible for the condition of things as they now exist. But made a failure, only one man had the courage to even try and cheer him. The meeting then adjourned for an hour, after which Hon. J. N. Twitty and Col. J. A. B. Mahaffee, hurried the two old parties in the presence of six hundred amidst wild enthusiam. You may put Jackson county in the People’s Party column with five hun dred majority. W. A. Me. P. 8. It is the belief of what few present democrats there are in the country that jack ass brought from Harmony Grove to Jefferson on the first Tuesday in May to the democratic taeetinghas proven their Jonah. Me. Whisky and Beer. Editor Southern Alliance Farmer: The Iron side democracy, whiskey and beer, flowed freely in this county on the 17th. They nominated their coun ty officers on that day. The like of drunkness I never saw before. I told some of the leading Third Party in this county some time ago, to wait until af ter the nomination and that there would be plenty of defeated sore heads to affiliate with us, the defeated candi dates for tax collector, told me on Sat urday after the nomination that the Third Party would whip the fight if they managed things right, the only trouble here is they have the counting of the votes and they are good at it, they would count any party out,should they poll ten to their oue. I know whereof I speak. I have known as good men as there is in this county counted out by them, Sid Lewis, from Sparty, counted out Dr. Gilbert his wifes uncle some years ago. He was teaching school here at the time. He bragged to the doctor after the election that he had got the votes in the box, but did not get them counted. Gilbert ran as an independent. I think we ought to beat Crisp by all means. I see that Hulsy of Atlanta is a proble candidate for congress. He ought to be beat, I know him. He mar ried in this town. The democracy say they are afraid of the negro, I tell them it must be the menthey are afraid of. I write to give you the actual facts, nothing more and nothing less. Stir things from now until October and I hope and pray we may succeed. Yours Respectfully, W. D. Pierce. A FAST AGE. Time and Distance Annihilated by Im provement.—Quick time to Wash ington and New York. Washington, May 19.—Time and distance have been almost annihilated by the great improvements of the day. Leaving Montgomery at 7 a. m., pas sengers reach this city at 11.30 a. m. and New York 3 p. m., the next day. In going the other way the time is still shorter, as those who leave New York at 5 p. m., and Washington at lip. m., reach Montgomery at 9.25 p. m. the next day. The road from Montgomery to Atlanta, in general excellence, will compare with any in the United States. The track is good and the cars glide along over splendid rails smoothly and comfortably. The conductors are all attentive and polite. The same can be said of the Richmand & Danville road, from Atlanta to Washington. The lim ited train, which is fast becoming the traveler’s favorite, makes less vhati a dozen stops from the capital of the State of Alabama to the capital of the United States, a distance of 825 miles. Their speed is an average rate of 33 milles an hour. The dining car service is equal to that of the first class hotels of the country. From here on to New York, over the famous Pennsylvania railroad, is a continuation of the rapid transit and fine accommodations. All the way there is a double track and for a large portion of it four tracks. In addition to this the block system of run ning trains prevails and the danger of accidents is minimized to a wonder ful degree. The Pennsylvania has no equal on the American continent.— Montgomery Advertiser May 20,1892. There will be a meeting held at Ac worth, Cobb county Ga., on Saturday July 2nd, for the purpose or organizing a People’s Party Club. Let all who are friendly to the cause come out and take part with us. T. J. Helton, G. R. Durham, D. D. Bakreßt, Executive Committee.

We demand that the government shall establish sub-treasuries or deposi tories in the several States,which shall loan money direct to the people at a low rate of interest not to exceed two per cent per an num, on non-perishable farm products, and also upon real estate, with proper limita tions upon the quantity of land and amount of money. We demand that the amount of the circu lating medium be speedily increased to not less than 850 per capita. That we demand that Congress shall pass such laws as will effectually prevent the dealing in futures of all agricultural and mechanical productions; providing a strin gent system of procedure in trials that will secure the prompt conviction, and impos ing such penalties as shall secure the most perfect compliance with the law. We condemn the silver bill recently pass ed by Congress, and demand in lieu thereof the free and unlimited coinage of silver. We demand the passage of laws prohib iting alien ownership of land, and that Congress take prompt action to devise some plan to obtain all lands now owned by aliens and foreign syndicates ; and that all lands now held by railroads and other cor porations in excess of such as is actually used and needed by them be reclaimed by the government, and held for actual set tlers only. Believing in the doctrine of equal rights to all and special privileges to none, we demand—■ a. That our national legislation shall be so framed in the future as not to build up one industry at the expense of another. b. We further demand a removal of the existing heavy tariff tax from the necessi ties of life, that the poor of our land must have. c. We further demand a just and equi table system of granuated tax on income. d. We believe that the money of the country should be kept as much as possible in the hands of the people, and hence we demand that all national and State /evenue shall be limited to the necessary expenses of the government economically and hon estly administered. We demand the most rigid,honest,andjust State aud national government control and supervision of the means of public commu nication and transportation, and if this con trol and supervision does not remove the abuse now existing, wa demand the gov ernment ownership of such means of com munication and transportation. We demand that the Congress of the United States srjbmit an amendment to the Constitution providing for the election of United States Setnators by direct vote of the people of each State. St. Louis Platform, 1892. I. MONEY. We demand a national currency, safe sound and flexible, issued by the general government only, a full legal tender for all debts, public and private, and that with out the use of banking corporations a just, equitable and efficient means of distribu tion direct to the people at a tax not to ex ceed 2 per cent be devised as set forth in the sub-treasury plan of the Farmers’ Alli ance, or some better system; also by pay ments in discharge of its obligations for public improvements. We demand the free and unlimited coin age of silver. We demand that the amount of the cir culating medium be speedily increased to not less than fifty dollars per capita. We demand a graduated income tax. We believe that the tnbney of the coun try should be kept as much as possible in the hands of the people, aud we demand, that all state and national revenues shall be limited to the necessary expenses of the government economically aud honestly administered. We demand that postal savings banks be established by the government for the safe deposit of the earnings of the people and to facilitate exchange. it. LAND. The land, including all the natural sources of wealth, is the heritage of all the people and should not be monopolized for speculative purposes, and alien ownership of land should be prohibited. All lands now held by railroads and other corpora tions in excess of their actual needs, and all lands now owned by aliens should be reclaimed by the government and held for actual settlers only. in. TRANSPORTATION. Transportation being a means of ex change and a public necessity, the govern ment should own and operate the railroads in the interest of the people. The tele graph and the telephone, like the postal system, being a necessity for the trans mission of news, should be owned and op ‘ erated by the government in the interest of the people.
