Our Gus is an old "settled''man.
I like that -word "settled."
Uncle Sam says folks ain't

"settled." He said he would
hunt us up a settle! 'oman for

own minds and wbuldent t stay
any where long at a time. Judge
Wright Is a settled man.
But it don't matter about the
secrecy if the farmers will re
form thiugs. We want them to
turn ths rascals out of office,
everywhere and begin the sys
tem of economy iu government.
Reform the tariff and educate
the people so that they lwill
know exactly what the tariff
is, and how much it takes put
of their pockets to protect the
manufacturer, and raay)e they
will stop it without the shot
gun. Let every scnool boy
know how much less his pock
et knife would have cost him
and he will raise a racket be
fore ho can vote. ; ;
The politicians are makiug a
big fuss about the money and
say tue government must exs
pa nd the circulation. Make
money cheaper by making
more of it sorter like we did
during the war when it took
10 to buy a bunch of yarn and
200 to buy a pair of cotton
cards. Iu January, 1865, I paid
$;,0u0"for a little old measly
;ow that gave about - a half a
gallon or milk a day; but that
was enough for a poor little

national banks afe notallowed j

that law repealed for it is of
no consequence. No bank ie
fool enough to lend money on
a mortgage. Will Howard is a

prohibited, but J'll bet- 10 he

business integrity with a good
endorser or a collateral that
can be converted into money iu
thirty days. It takes eighteeu
mouths to foreclose a farm
mortaage, and if the farmer
dies It takes a year longer. I
nieorge Truit, of Troup coun
ty, has made a grand success at
farming. The State Alliance
visited JLh3 farm the other day
and George said he began with
nothing-since the war and has
made all that he has got at
farming, and that economy
and diligence and constant care
and waich'fulness will do more
for the farmer than all the
legislation that can be demised.
You can pick out farmers here
and there in every county who

When through the operation
of the Lodge national election
bUl six or seven Southern
States shall discard Democratic
rule, we shall look confidently
to see some measure of justice
done to the blacks who have so
long been defrauded of their
rights.- , -r ! 1 f:
Heavy taxes should be laid
upon the property of the
whites to develop and extend
the public school system in
those States, separate schools
for the two races should be
abolished i and the s plan - of
bringing the youth; of ; both
colors into close and equal
relation in schools and church
es "given a fair trial as one of
the most; potent -elements to
break down the detestable
bourbonism of the South. The
right of the black to bear arms
should be guaranteed to .him
a3 well as the social rights I
intended to be secured him by
the passage of the 14th and 15th
amendments to the constitu
tion. The State laws against
the interrinarriage of the races
should be repealed, aud any
discriminations against the
blacks in the matter of learning
trades or obtaining employ
ment should be made a crimi
nal offenCe, while the colored
man's right to hold office
should tbe sacredly protected
and recognized. A few years of
this policy will tolve tbe race

Do you agree with every one ?
Will you call all who differ
with you a fool or a knave ?

it is unlawful for others to do

knows it all, and that all who
differ' with him are either
cranks or rascals. Intelligent
