J. A. Hill, Corresponding Sec:
dear bin i nave received your
letter, accoinpauied by a copy of
the declaration of principles of the
Farmers' Alliance.
I see nothing in this declaration
that cannot be fully endorsed by
any man who loves his country,
who believes that the object of our
government should be the freedom
prosperity, and happiness of all
our people, and who believes that
justice, and fairness to all are nec
essary conditions to its useful ad
ministration. It has always seemed to me that
the farmers of the country were es
pecially interested in the equita
ble adjustment of our tar ill sys
tem. The indifference they have
shown to the question, and the
ease with which they have been
led away from a sober considera
tion of their needs and rights, as
related to this subject, have exci
ted my surprise.
Struggle as they may, our farm
ers must continue to be purchas
ers and consumers of numberless
to their Republican allies. Hav
ing 'danced a little with the Pro
hibition party, the leaders of the
People's party are now ready "to
waltz with the Republican party
'the balance of the time, and they
are doiug it.
The cartoon published on the
first page of last week's North Car
oliuian tells the tale more elo
quently than words. For proof of
its truth, see the action of the
People'. party in Vance and Edge
combe counties, nominating ne
groes for office and proposing to
vote for them. Also see the com
plexion of the People's party State
ticket, composed mainly of Radi
cals. Alto recall the abuse and
icsults heaped upon Col. Harry
Skinner, whose only offense was
saying that between the two he
preferred Elias Carr to J. B. Eaves
for Governor.
Is it any wonder that the hon
est farmers, who really want re
lief, are repudiating this combination?
because we know that white they
err they are honest and sincere.
' Like the Southerner the Times
has not one word of abuse to , say
of the rank and file of the popu-
w" lite party, but it has and ti III con
tinue to denounce and expoee the
hollow pretense, the hypocrisy,
the sham reform and demsgogism
of the leaders.
These are it fair mark; they are the common enemy.
When they
for leaders and
for office, they become public
property, and they will find this
paper prickjng their bubbles of
political rot aud exposing them
for their selfishness and unpatri
otic designs.
As to a man's private charac
ter, we shall hare naught to say
except when that character is
such as to make him unfit to bold
a position of trust.
Our duty as a journalist
quires that we do this, and
s'lall, let the consequents
what they may. We shall
deavor to do no one an injustice,
to misrepresent no one.
With the rank and file we shall
ever employ reason. For then
the latch string always hangs
on the outside of the Democratic
door. They will ever be
corned back.
And they will come back, too,
if they will only think a little.
If they will inspect and examine
the men who have been put up to
lead them, they will at once see
that they are not the men to give
them what they want. What
self-respecting Southern men can
vot for Weaver, who has called
us traitors and murderers, and
still says he has nothing to take
back? What is there in the pop
ulate platform to give the pepple
any relief. No one pretends that

To the Editor of the Atlanta Jour

It believes you honestly opposed to
Radical rule in North Carolina. It
knows you made a great mistaae

rule by going outside the Demo

it goes off to pay pensions and

Government can send money

If the people will only think
about these things with fairness

the conclusion that their relief !

who are misleading them to ad
