The Cleveland paper continue to charge that Mr. Weaver is in favor of paying to Union soldiers the def ference tetween gold and deprecia ted greenbacks. This is untrue, for Mr. Weaver opposed putting such a plantc in the Omaha Platform. But suppose it were true, Mr. Cleveland is in favor of paying the bondhold tho difference between go d and the depreciated . greenbacks. Which is worse? Which do you prefer? If anybody must be paid the differ ence, we say pay it to the poor sol dier every time. What say you? Wail street forced the Republican party to raise tie Force bill issue. Harrison is afraid of the thing and wants to ignore it in bis letter of Hcceptance. Tte money power will not allow this. They want the Democrats and Rei ublicans to blind all economic and financial issues with this one. It is true this iorce bill business will huit Harrison's chances for success, but the money power does not cool. In fact the gold bugs would prefer Cleveland to Harrison, but either would be satisfactory. Gen. Weaver is the man the gold bugs dread. They fear the People's party and ita live Issues. They fear that the people will learn their rights and their wrongs and vote for the party of th people. The only hope of the mon ey power is to get up sectional feeling and prejudice to blind the real issues of the campaign. The people have been rending ana think ing for themselves. They will not be fooled this time. They will vote for financial reform, they will vote for more money, they will vote for a system that will give them a fair price for their products.

We have for some time believed that the just and needed reforms demanded by the people could only be gotten by a union of effort on the part of the South and the West. For months it has been evident that a new political organization was necessary in national politics to ac complish this end. In-State and local politics this did not seem to be necessary. Therefore we have ad vocated and urged tho reformers of this State to act with the Democrat ic party in State and local affairs. In good faith the reformers of this State decided to follow this course, and it is not our fault that it has become necessary to organize a new party in the State and counties. The people have been forced to take this action or sacrifice their honest convictions and forfeit their own self-respect. The Democratic ma chine has exerted itself to irritate and exasperate the people. The politicians determined to drive enough of the reformers out of the Democratic party to leave them in control. They have done more than they intended. They have driven the rank and file of the people, the laborers and wealth producers out of the party. They have only a remnant of the party left. As we passed a crowd a few days since, an exuberant gush of patriotic & dor caused a gentleman to exclaim that "we Clevelandites are making a grand fight for pure Jefferson ian democracy," and he seemed to be sincere in his statement. Let us see : Did Jefferson ever favor con trol of the currency of the country by national banks? No. Did he ever favor a reduction of the per capita circulation for the purpose of making labor cheap and the prod ucts of labor low, so that a high rate of interest could be maintained and the usury from money would buy twice as much labor and products a3 ever before ? No. Did he ever fa vor the perpetuation of primogeni ture, directly or indirectly? No; he opposed it ; but corporate power has re-established it. Did he ever favor a system of finance that would operate for the benefit of foreigners for the enslavement of Americans ? order the first county convention of the People's party. He mpled Mr. Marion Butler to act as tem iiorary chairman, and Mr. D. W. Williams as secretary. The creden tials handed in to the secretary showed a full list of delegates from every township. There were no contests. Upon motion a commit tee consisting of one from each township on permanent organiza tion was elected. The committee promptly r.-ported as follows : For permanent Chairman, Marion But ler ; for .Secretary, Mr. D. W. Wil liams. Mr. Butler accepting the Chairmanship of the Convention said that he wished to thank the Convention for this evidence of t-teir respect, confidence and esteem. He said he appreciated it all the nioie because he had advised a different course. This showed him that the people while disagreeing with him on methods had the fullest confi dence in his honesty of purpose and devotion to the cause of r.form. lie said tnat this wras truly a peo ple's movement, for the men who had been cal.'ed leaders had thought that a different policy would be best. He said he had great confl deuce In the wisdom of the people, and that this reform movement could not win without unity of ac tion ; therefore it was now the duty of every reformer to go with the majority into the People's party. which was now the only party of and for the people. He said that the recent action of the Democratic machine had made this course in- No. Did he ever favor the use of evitable, had caused ten thousand money in elections to bribe voters or purchase their votes ? No. Did he ever lavor organizing systems by law to build up and enrich those engaged in particular lines of labor at the cost and damage of agricul ture? No. Did he ever favor demonetizing silver ? No. Did he ever contend for any principle an tagonistic to the rule of the people, for the interest of the people by the people ? No. What existing poli cy of this government or policy suggested by Mr. Cleveland tither now or during las administration, did Jefferson favor? Not one. Yet these people call themselves Jeffer sonian Democrats ! It is difficult to conceive how they can make good their claim. Alliance Herald, Ala. 'A SOUTH HATER.

The leaders of thought and action on both sides did the same thing, and were applauded by their people, and if they had done less would have lost the respect not only of their own people, but even of the other side. In fact it was the most patriotic and high-spirited that werethe strongest partisans in tnoe times ; and the test of true manhood both North and South is now to be able to bury all those feelings and to join hands in a great fight for the cause of humanity, in a great fight between the people and the enemies of justice and liberty. They sr.y that Weaver is an enemy and hater of the South. In our opinion the -South has no greater enemy and hater than the gold-bug, it has no better friend than the advocate of an honest and just financial system. Mr. Weaver is a friend to the South, for he is in favor of whit will be to our benefit. Mr. Cleveland is an enemy to the South, for he favors men in the State to join the People's party, which sounded the death knell of tho Democratic party and made victory for the People's party a certainty. y Upon motion a committee on piatform, consisting of 15 members, one from each township, was ap pointed. The Convention then look a recess till 1:30 for the . committee to prepare its report. .. At 1:30 Chairman But. r called the Convention to order. Mr. I. O.

He said he - regretted to do this for the county had never had a truer, .more faithful and valuable representative" than W. K. Pigford. But he assured the Convention that Mr. Pigford was in full accord with the movement and would sup port the nominees of the People's party. Upon the first ballot Mr. J E.
