MAY 9. 1902 THE AUGUSTA TRIBUNE. What It Says Of Mr. Fleming. Mr. Fit ming is a man of servatism and experience. He is not a hairbramed fallow with a mouth like a windmill eternally dapping and onlv making a noise, but a man who lias given deep study to state subjects and whose opinions carry weight, with them when expressed. It would be nothing short of a calamity to sup plant a solid man like Fleming with an erratic visionary like Hur dwick. Boasting Hint ho will ad dress himself to repealing the fourteenth and fifteenth amend inents-au impossibility-lie would arouse again the old bloody shirt issue and sectionalism wliLh it wastlie mission of Populism to allay. No Populist can vote tor waver of the bloody shirt, and Mr. Hardwick is that. But were Mr. Hardwick the equal of Hr, Fleming in abiltv ami sxpofionce, which he is not were tliers ne 1 difference) between , the two candidates iu their pro* fessions, when m everything Mr; Fleming is nearer Populism than Mr. Hardwick ; wore the Democ racy of the two candidates us near alike as two black eyed peas, still no Populist could vote for Mr. Hardwick because of his lutoler nnoe toward Populists iu iho days when tho Democrats were moving the powers of earth and hellfo beat Tom Watson. It is reported tjiat Mr. Hardwick is adroitly rp pealing to Populists to knife Mr. Fleming in this race on account of what liichipoiid county did in those days.f’Hue l^pufisMt^ili not bv caught ff.h «nch •tutf. Among the most. ra«j t d ot these inost. int.oleraiit Washinto moss backs was Mr. Hardwick. For all lie poses uow ns a lover r>f Popu lists, who believes fhut a Poputists is just a little bit better than any body else, he never developed this love for populists till he wanted their votes to put him iu office, When the Pjpulists wero making the fight in this district which drew attention aud admiration of th« world, and Democrats were re sorting to everything low and vile to defeat them, this sumo Mr, Hardwick who now professes to Jove the Populists so much was tlm must hitter of their enemies and most violent, in denoucing them. At home in Ins own conn* ty he was one tlm chief workers of tho iniquity which held down a large Populist majority, and stilt lm had talent of this sort to spate to helpehcwhere. In Augusta ho mad a speech, Augut 20, 1895, he Showed his fairness toward Popu list* by urging that “iu this elec tion we behold tlm final death struggle of a disheartened but throughly desperate and dangerous opponent,” whose doctrines, lie declared, “tend to array class, rich against poor, which lead to paternalism, socialism and nnar «hy,” Ho advised that in a gov ern.ent liko ours tlm lietto.’ clas-* of our citizenry (tho mossbackDe inocrnts)muBt asserts themselves (stuff ballot boxes) or the worst tho Populists will ruin and wreck it,in the whirlpool ot Populist anarchy." During all that tune Mr. Flem ing took no part in the wild or gies of Democracy, poliiieal de bauchery and Populist denuncia tion. It was Mr. Fleming who was the first Democrat who had the coiirogo to recognise the Tri bune, then the Woll-Hat, the de spised and ignored little “third party pr.rtv” paper published in the woods, and who had the man hood over signaturo to advocate fuinuea and political tolerauce, while Mr. Hardwick was sawing the air in veignu.g against “Popu list anarchy,” Mr. Flaming wasn’t and intol crant part ism then any more than he is > w. lie then had (he man hood to cohtend tor .fairness for Pnpu< sts. j«*tf «g„be is now has U.J ma- h^od'fo vote neiiinscDein R'NwffbaTttlaia in Congress ..hen they tiro wrong. And Mr. Hard is the same old moss back, Nvlfii now’yaya he would vote for ‘partly right or ... ong, who de nounced' Populists as “dangerous anarchist*” in 1805. The, Populists will elect the re present at ve in the Tenth d istrict year, as indicated above. If Mr. Hardwick should be pieced it would present the Populists of the Tdnth in a most unfavorable light to world. But the Populists* ot the Tenth district will not do this. " r - Hardwick may tlnitk lie is bur ning them for fools, but he will find when the vites are counted that he has lost his ashes. —Augusta Tribune, An Average Man. Haiti more Advertiser.
