7 THE ROANOKE NEWS, THURSDAY, MAY 28, 1891. THE ROANOKE NEWS Nortn Carolina the Deniomtie .irt v ha9 even ion further; it lias em- THURSDAY MAY 28, 189, bo.Ued in its platlorm every vrin.-iple it 7 T11H T31IKI) PARTY. The third party was organiz Cintiati last week. Its plat tony pnn ciples is uublUhed esewhiu this issue. Of the 1,117 delat the convention 1,173 of thevpresenti'd eight Western States, in.u tlicin be ing without any credent' rm any or ganization authoriz.'lipp 'int them. The convention coiilrrdly be called a a representative hoi the sense that its meuibershud any jrity to formulate the avowed priucipl any sets of men, but it was ri prest Ae hi the sense that it stood for anent of the American people ,4ii:es the great necessity of legisiiv ime kind to ameliorate the cond,' f lame class, the needs of wrr u'cniiie so imperative as to re d' Jy'dv relief. There is no denv- ' 7 tact that this class of which we r I I I 1 . ... ... cahiug uac imrucns nevuu.s iu in: and that great statesmanship is (ukvA to deal sueci sfully with them, ild the problem is receiving the atten tion of political economists all over the country. 1 he American people are slow to move and the great revolution which is taking place, of which the Cincinnati convention is only an evidence, shows that the people of this country intend to have relief. But whether the formation of a third political party will bring the relief desired is extremely doubtful. Par ties are the result of growth, growth winch strikes its roots deep into the hearts and minds of men where they bi come fixed principles and the basis of unity and co-operation. The third party organized at Cincinnati has not this ele ment of success, we think; nor are its fol lowers bound together by any common principles which will keep them united in defeat as well as in success. Their interests are too varied and iu some cases too antagonistic to augur well for that priuciple which underlies the gov ernment and success of all organizations, be they political or otherwise, that the will of the majority must rule and the - minority must yield for the good of the whole. With us in the South this movement ! ought not to and cannot sustain itself for reasons which should be obvious to all and ought to commend themselves to j everyone. It cannot be sustained here because there are questions peculiar to j mis part or me country wincn must nee essarily enter into consideration whenever there is a proposition to break away from old lines and old narties nuestions which I r i cannot be ignored for the reason that ' in some respects they are to Southern j people paramount to everything else; be- cause whatever good might possibly be I accomplished by any movement tend- j ing to disintegrate existing parties would; necessarily and inevitably endan-er the existiug order, and that.would mean dis-1 , . , . , - aster and ruin. Ihe predonunent e e-1 r I ment of the Cincinnatti convention have not in their portions of the country these peculiar conditions to deal with and it is not to be presumed that they could in so short a time divest themselves of tho ,..,. , leel'.jg of sectionalism, so long men cated n n into them, sufficiently to enable them to modify their action to meet the especial conditions of our section. j rru hi- 11 1.1 1 ', The Alliance is well aware of the prob-1 , ... . . . , , i lems which contront the South, and for , , una 1 1 that reason at the Oeala meeting refused j to endorse the third party movement, They realized existing conditions in the ! South because Southern men were there j i . .1 . , . 1 to present them to view; and it must be . , , ., . , ,. , , , remembered that the A nance had no official connection with the Cincinnati ' convention, nor was it officially repn- seated in that body. Indeed the move- m Hit has not eveu the sanction of the Alliance Whether the Alliance will eventually be drawn into this movement depends grcatlyupon theutteraneesoflhetwogreat p iliticul parties or rather upon the ree- j 1 1 1 .1 1 iir ords which they ni ike, Wc can m e no , Tf.u. ., I in- J icusou rur n. 11 iiiu piuuuiuis 01 tile Democratic party and the Alliance are A read carefully it will be seen that they jje 'a accord upon nearly every public e reaction, and in those questions upon f aaich the Democratic party has not 1 i?0 officially its record is in accord in' Ic' a Alliance demands, though not "tays so radical. For instance: The tiser. 'a platform demands government su- sion of railroads; the Democratic t Has' jl is on record as supporting a gov 'uo tent railroad commission. The j a platform demands an incregse of ' dating medium by means of the t o-treasury plan; the record shows that .e Democratic party is in favor of a cur rency suited to the needs of the people. i w s aKea to aiiopt ry me .viianee mem bers of the convention, utnl it did so wit' out sacrificing a single principle or stultifying itself in the least. The truth is the Democratic party is in touch with the people because it be lieves in the people and is of the people, and its principles must be sustained if the people are to govern themselves in their own way and for their own weal.
