| iJefnourafc to the Front.
i Mf. Ei)iron:—I wish to congratulate
’
I yon upon the earnest stand you have ta¬
lkie l'or the cause of democracy. It be
I hooves every true Democrat to unfurl his
banner to the breeze and show to the
world where, he stands.
The overthrow of the democratic party
•n the south means nothing more nor less
than negro rule and suprmacy. The per
petuation of the democratic party means
peace and pt asperity to every citizen of
the South. For myself, 1 am not asham
i ed of a party that has stood the political
] tempest for over a hundred years. To
| desert the party of Jefferson, Jackson and
Cleveland would make me feel that I had
forsaken my father's name and blackened
the memory of my dear mother who gave
mo nourishment in my infancy.
Mr. Editor, I want to say to the demo¬
crats of Haralson, to stand uf, and let
usseo who you are, and where you stand.
Let the battle cry in this campaign be
Cleveland, Northern, Maddox and the
Solid South.
A Democrat.
WEAVER’S BRUTAL CRUELTY.
Testimony of One Who Witnessed it in
Tennessee.
Tallapoosa, Ga., August fS
j see in your issue of Saturday, the 20th
inst., an extract from a letter written by
an old citizen of Pulaski, Tenn.; also a
copy of a clippir.g from the Giles County
Democrat of the 20th of July, chargiug
General Weaver, the peoples party candi¬
date for president, with beastly cruelty
towards the citizens of Pulaski and Giles
county while iu command of the Union
army at that place in 1864.
I can fully substantiate a number of tbe
charges contained therein, and could add
many others of like character, all from my
own recollection. Although quite young
at the time such a state of terror as we
were kept iu by this brute in human form
made an indellible impression upon my
m * ,uP
My father, Dr. Perkins, was living in
Pulaski at this time. Our house, my
grandmother’s { Mis. Dr, Ordway, now of
Nashville.) and Major Jones, a relative of
ours, were used as officers quarters. We
were all subjected to many insults. Major
Jones’ family were ordered from their
house at about 12 o’clock on a bitter cold
n '8ht in December. fb«y were not allow
ed time to dress. Mrs. Jones had to wrap
her sick child in bed-clothing and carry it
in her arms to a neighbor’s house. Many
acts of barbarous cruelty committed on
mv relati ves and friends are fresh in my
memory. Men of the highest standing,
both young and old, were thrown into
prison, kept there for months and some
shot down like dogs with never a charge
entered against them.
Ladies were insulted on the streets—it
was indeed a reign of terror. Such acts of
vandalism and crime 1 have never even
rea( j 0 f j„ a civilized country. All of it
was clone by the order, or with consent of
General Weaver. Mis. Annie E. Hall, in
