i The farmers ur onxi country are en
gaged in ove of the most noble, greatest
and highest professions that man can
‘engage in in this life, and yet they ave
‘the worst abused and the most imposed
upon by the demagogus and political
tricksters than any other class of people
under the sun, and when 1 cometo think
and realize how much and how badly
the faymers and the poor laboring men,
who are not farmers, ave trampled upon,
legislated against and oppressed by the
Jaw makers and politicians of our gov
ernment, it awakes within me a feel
ing of bitter animosiry against them,
and credtes a symipathy and good will
that goes out from the very depth of my
heart to our laboring and toiling peo
ple. j
I am not a member of the Alliance but
Tam in symparhy with the farmer who
does his own work and drudgery. The
faney farmer who lives int towns and ei
ties and is farming for a laxury, needs
no sympathy.
1 amn not a farmer myself; I do notown l
a sinzle fort of land—not éven a home—
nor do I own one nickle’s interest in a
single interprisé in the universe. -1 am
a laboring man working for daily wages
for my living; then of course 1 am a
friend to the laboring man and that in
cludes the farmer,at least the farmer who
does his own work and drudgery. These
ave the men that I am here to stand by
to-day; these are the men that you will
ever find me battling for; these are the
men that onght to be and must be sus
tained:. I have worked upon the farm;
my father was raised upon the farm and
my grand parents were both farmers
but they ave dead, yes, they have pass
ed from this life to life eterbal, but
thanks be to God their blood still lives
and it flows in my veing and I am here
to defend it. And while I4m here to de
fend them as farmers, lam also here with
still stronger weapuns, if possible, to de-4
fend theém as democrats. Yes, I am a
democrat; apove and before all things, I ‘
say again, 1 am a democrat, and it is for
this reason, as well ag others, that 1 am
voting with the Alliance. I consider
them the demoeratic party—the
organized demoecrats of the south. 1
have all my life voted the organized tick
et and 1 can not and will not give it up
yet. The Alliance has shown a clean
democratic record up to date and they
have submitted their candidates every
where to the conventions called by the le
gal Democratic Exeentive Committee and
if that is not a mark of democracy, 1 do
not know where you will find it,
Now, let me say to the democrats and
alliancemen of old Haralson ceounty, as
you have submitted your candidates to
the Haralson County Nominating Con
vention, let me beseech you, asa demo
erat, to abide by its decision. The
wStraight Outs,” as they call themselves,
have already accused the alliance of not 1‘
being democrats and without a cause,
and if you fail to support the men that
vour county convention nominated, they
'wfll have an exease, and a good 2ne, to
exclaim they are not democrats. Sure
1 enouch, just as we said, we have told the
trath and the world at large will also
loose confidence in you as democrats,
Then let me urge you to vote for W, J.
Brown for the Legislature, He was not
‘my choice before nor during the conven
tion, but he was nominated and 1 am
L for him now with sleaves rolled up. That ‘
i 3 the kind of a demoerat 1 am, I
H. D. Hutcheson was my choice be
fore and during the colivention for the
Senate and of eourge [ will vote for him
if I am able to get to the voting grounds,
and if anything should happen that he
would not run I would vote for his coat
if they wounld hang it up betore I would
vote for Dr, Goldin or any other man
under the civennmstances, and if that is
not enough, and the law would allow it,
I would make the last one of my chick
eng and dacks vote for it. Dear votiung
people of Paulding, Polk and Haralson
counties, let me say to youn that H, D.
Hutcheson is the lezal nominee and un
doubtedly the choice of Haralson conu
ty and language fails me in attempting
to give him even one-haif of the praise
he desevves as 4 han of honesty and in
tegrity, He is 4 man in which words
fail to convey 4 true ided of his magnifi
cence; no words of praise are too strong
for his feligions courdge; his religious
bravery; his democratic record and his
good will to all people.

Eprror Baxver.—Please allow
me space in your columns to aus
wer the many inguiring letters
that 1 have received from voters
of your county in regard to a bu
siness transaction between my
self and Jasper Brown. I, being
legally authorized to organize
Haralson county in the Farmers’
Alliance, and being called upon
to meet some farmers mear Mr.
Brown’'s for that purpose, and it
being impossgible for me to do so
at the appointed time, lapppoint
ed Mr. Brown to do the work for
me and retain one dollar of the
fees for hig trouble ard forward
the balance, whi¢h he did ac
cordig to contract. If Mr. Brown
did anything that was not accord
ing to contract and strictly honest
J have not been able to sée it.
The charges brought against Mr.
Brown in regard to that matter is
without any foundation and un
true. Fhope this letter will sat
isfy all in regard to that matter
for this is written without even
Mr. Brown's kuowledge

Strong Men.
Women love strong men. A weak
man may excite their sympathy
and a woman’s careful tenderuness
soothe and soften the anguish of
a weak mau’s soul, but the laugh
ing, joyous warm, exuberant love
of women dear, belongs to the men
that are strong and noble and
kind. Then why will'a man con.
tinue weak, and mean and peevish?
An old gentleman writes: ‘‘B.B.
B. gives me new life and strength.
If there is anything that will
make an old man young, it is B.
B B ‘
Sorme meén say, and women too,
they never feel weak and mean
and nérvous ahd prostrated in the
spring time when life and spiri:
awakens with thrilling hiloyancy‘
even the vegetible world? Mustl
you allow sluggish blood, inactive
orgatic functions, rusty joints and 3
general weakness to make your
life miserable simply because the
long winter has restrained your
natural activity? It need not be.
If only you will use that pleasant
and incomparabie tonic blood pu
rifier known as B. B. B. or Botanic
'Blood Balm your health in spring
‘time will be all that you can wish.
Try it this spring. Try it now.
P. A. Shepherd, Norfork, Va.,

tion of my health. Ihave had it
in my family now mnearly two
years, and in all that time have
not had to have a doctor.”
