POLITICS.
Mr. Editor.—T he. people feel, and re¬
ally should feel,a delicacy in tearing loose
from the old democratic party for fear it
will be said that they have abandoned
Jeffersonian democratic principles. |v is
the pride and ambition of three-forths of
the people of any party to want to see
their party triumph if possible, so long as
they can have faith. Now, the people are
really having no fears as to whether the
Ocala platform is in accordance with
democratic piincinciples or not, but uot
withstanding tho great emergency for re¬
lief, there' are some of them who are
taking hold slowly on the matter, fearing
that they will possibly he misunderstood
and possibly in the end be defeated.
Well, making haste slowly is a prudent
course. Tho squashing of o'd parties,
however corrupt, and setting on foot a
new lino of reform is quite a task for any
class or organization to. peform. But in
answer to tho question as to why the Al¬
liance democrats don’t remain in the old
democratic jiarty and reform it and right
the wrongs, which is claimed to be fully
as practical and easy to accomplish re¬
form as tearing loose, if not more so I
think this: that corrupt party bosses and
leaders who have went into corruption
and came d tiro party blindfolded with
them will prove, if muted with labor ro
formers in a party sense, to be their
worst enemies in the great work of re¬
form. It would be a fight of great con
teution over the turning loose with them
the tc;tt that they have sucked so long.
q u ,. WO rst eueinies would prove almost
to ho those of our own household. So,
. labor , , reformers, .. who
since our are men
of , national .. . reputations ... and , democratic ,
persuasion, have proved , so thoroughly
that ....... it is no moro nor less , than a war be- ,
tween labor and capital and plainly
showed that labor can’t any logger snb

Ocala , platform. , No party at , no „„ time. ..
lmt , m)I . e especially at this dark hour
will do well to hitch in with enemies to
reform, as tho leaders have served mo¬
nopoly until they are fully graduated on
that line. Labor is hit and democracy is

I do not want to force my views on the
people concerning a third party which
may be both out of reason and season and
premature, but letmy views be what they
may, I venture the assertion that three
fourths of the voters of Haralson county
will support the Ocala platform to-mor¬
row if they had an opportunity and if not
perfect, which it may not be in every
particular, yet I am constrained to be¬
lieve that if Jefferson was here be would
prefer walking under that banner to any
other that will be waved in the near fu
