Relegate the traitors to the rear, The populists of Gordon county are getting in line for the coming fight. It is Tiot so much the language we use that the hireling object to as it is the application. It makes ’em twist their tails like fly time and no mistake, The populists of Arkansas held their state convention in Little Rock last Tuesday and nominated a middle of the road ticket, head- ed by W. S. Morgan, one of the brainiest men in the party. The Tiiibuxe insists that the honest people of Georgia should, not allow the excitement about the war with Spain to draw their attention away from the organized plunderers here at home. We should allow nothing to abate our ardor in the fight we are making against iniquitous legislation. Strange as it may appear, nine out of ten of the men now rusli- kig.to the front to defend the hon¬ or of the American flag, have not a foot of land they can call their own, and many of them not a month’s rations ahead for those dependent upon them It is a rich man’s w ar and a poor man’s fight, just as it always has been. Will laboring men never learn their duty? Populists should* not permit their minds to grow torpid in old ago. Bright, clear intellects and firm hearts were never more need¬ ed than now. They should not permit the war spirit to divert them in the slightest from the plain duties which lje before them. We have dangers at home to fight far more threatening in character than any that at present beset us abroad. -The Gordon Bounty populists met in convention at Colhounlast Saturday and nominated a full county ticket, as follows: For the legislature, J. J, Griffin ; sheriff, C. L. Bums; clerk superior court, II, P, Barrett; tax collector, J.II. Barton ; tax receiver, J II Austin; coroner, R. B. Bray; surveyor, T; P. Smith; county commissioners, E.

SPIRIT OF REFORM. Is the laborer worthy of his hire? Has ho a right to the wealth pro¬ duced by Ins physical exertion? If he has such a right and it is de¬ nied him, where shall ho look for the remedy? The greatest good the greatest number is as perfect precept today as when first ed forth on the banners of a democracy, which planted standard on Bunker Ilill a ry ago. We are told that it is perative if we desire to enjoy full blessings of life, that accumulation and the power e.ul of aggrevated wealth shall be prevented. The demand is evi¬ dence sufficient that the power of appropriation is an ever present evil with us, and en joyed by others than ourselves, It was the hope of the fathers. when framing the constitution, that they had built upon a sure foundation. Have the results justified their expectations? Can it be said that the men who P ro * duce the wealth, which others, and not they, enjoy, are really free men? Or is political freedom compatible with industrial slavery? To secure the workers the full enjoyment of the wealth they create, is a noble work, and populist papers should have the support instead of the ridicule, of all ministers of the gospel in securing this end. To enable men to share equally and according to their merits in the gains and honors of advancing civilization, lias been the hope of every age. “Knowledge is power,” but that depends. Certainly that the knowl¬ edge that labor is the creator of all wealth has not enabled the slave of toil to lift himself above the difficulties which threaten to en¬ gulf him; and metaphysics is a poor thing for mutton. Long- winded disquisitions on the law of rent, wages and interest are not calculated to solve any near prob¬ lems for the workers, And, as lias been very aptly said, taking the social machine apart, simply to name its component parts were much like finalizing the apple, that the schoolboy may know what lie is eating. What the toiler wants to know, is the way to the orchard, so that he may fill his “pod” with full ripe fruit. The toiler asks for dumplings and is given an essay on digestion, the eosayists, the while, taking not into account the fact that it takes dumplings to move the digestive organs. Then what aro we to gather from this? Simply that as practical, thinking men, we must meet the first problems nearest us, and leave tlvwy to the special ists, while we THK “\VI 8 JC” BAXKEh’s PLAN. issue $ 500 , 000,000 of interest bearing treasury notes—gold bonds —based on the /fJ9**faith of the United States, in denominations of $500 and upward, to he absorbed by the bankers, placed in their iron safes, and quarterly (in ad¬ vance) draw from the people of the United States millions of dol- lars’ worth of the products of their labor to purchase gold coin from the bankers to pay interest to the i bankers on the bonds. succor ourselves with fact alone Along this line lies safety and the solution of many perplexing ques- 1 tions pending a settlement. The Omaha platform offers a practical remedy for every ill from which the body politic suffers. It stands as a beacon light to the storm- tossed mariner to steer the ship of state clear of the shoals and into the port of safety, and points the way to a new and brighter day. Its principles are as lofty as the ijftars and as lasting as time. NOTICE, POPULISTS! I request that every chairman in each militia disti’ct in the county call a meeting of their dis¬ tricts on the second Saturday in June, or as soon thereafter as pos¬ sible, and report, the same to me. J. H. Mizk, Chairman. A REFORMER’S REWARD The following from the New York Journal is strongly sugges¬ tive of the character of reward that awaits the labors of the true reformer. His end in all cases may not be death by suicide, but m all probability will be death through the slow process of starva¬ tion. For a prophet even in these times is never known in liis own country. ‘There is pathos,” says the paper, “and a warning in the fate of the man William Hanson, who met a self-inliicted death last Monday. He was not old, as the generation goes. At sixty-five men rule great nations, accomp¬ lish great things in literature, in science or art, many make fort¬ unes, do almost anything .that is done in the lives ot middle-aged men. He was poor, yes; but he had brains and a trade. Ills vo¬ cation was that of a skilled watch¬ maker; his avocation that of a student of the industrial and so¬ j cial conditions of his fellow-be- | i mgs. “The'latter phase of his energy round manifestation . addresses m before thoughtful and respectable societies. ... 7 Living . . godly, ,, right- . ., a eons and sober life, giving thought to his neighbor as himself, ponder- mg over the problems of poverty and of wealth, this old man seems J tc have found his heart and mind diverted from selfish interests, and yet to have dropped lower and lower m the social scale—asmoas- ured by income—until with sud- den despair he took himself out of' the world altogether. “What is the moral? Is the | ; 1 selfish, unthinking ° man onlv, * 7 to live and thrive? . And if so, ini what respect ivill the civilized i world differ from the jungle?” i I The way to secure reform is to co-operate with that party which is pledged te reform.

If England engages France, (as is predicted, and we become Eng¬ land's alley, would not Russia join France? Would not Austria and Italy do the same? Would Ger¬ many and Japan not take* sides as it promised to be the most advant¬ ageous to them? And would Ire¬ land enter the sisterhood of inde¬ pendent nations as Cuba has done?
