This may be pretty plain talk, but it is gospel truth, and we propose to tell it. It was in 1892 when the Peo ples Party raised its voice against as recently converted from Cleveland- ism to free silver as Mr. Pou has. We are slow to believe that the conversion is genuine. We think it has been lammed into them in pretty much the same style as Methodism was lammed by the old negro into his daughter when she wanted to be a 'Piscopalian. But when she got where the old man could not lam her, she was 'Piscopal ian just the same. PLKASK 1M SOX FRET.

It was pretty full of" all the "glorious things" that had been done by the Cleveland administration and (1894 mind you!) contained the fol lowing heart bursting and soul inspir ing eulogy of Cleveland. "Where is the American citizen, no matter what mat be his politi cal PARTY, WHO DOES NOT THANK GOD THAT MORAL COURAGE, LOFTY PATRIOT ISM AND PERFECT MANHOOD ARE TO BE FOUND IN THE CHAIR OF THE PRESI DENT of the United States." In ad- dition to this grand "peroration," Mr. Pou defended the issues of bonds and said that no sensible man could have done anything else, (but to issue bond). ' We wonder if Mr.Pou would say to day tbat no sensible man could do anything else but to issue bonds! If such internal rascality was the right thing then, why would it not be the right thing at any other time? This was not the only time Mr. Pou boomed Clevelandism. He made a speech at Thompson's store in Chat ham county. Some people remember that speech and here is a certificate we have from some of those who heard it. To Whom it May Concern.

Next came the Democratic convention which undertook to do all its work, but it is now well known that some of that work has been un done by its State committee. The Peoples party convention was tbe last one held, and much of the work for which it was called was referred to the State committee. Thess facts may or may not be con sidered as evidence that the conven tions did not know exactly how to pro ceed, but one fact is that State com mittees were burdened with important work. In trying to discbarge duties thus imposed, the committees have in curred, to some extent, the charge of "Bossism", and there have been some statements or accusations that parties are "committee ridden". It occurs to us that those who have indulged, in such talk have opened their moutns without knowing what they were do ing or saying. It should be remem bered tbat the committees did not in vite the work or the responsibility im posed upon them, but they accepted the trust. We are in a position to know that the Peoples Party State committee has done and is now doing everything possible to perform the duties imposed upon it in such a way as to conform to the wishes of the people. Of course pauperism the wealth producers, and it has been impractisable to corres- lue ennenment oniy oi money lenders, THE PEOPLE'S PARTY A BAND OK PATRI OTS. The Peoples Party not only forced these tremendous issues to tne front. but it is now doing more for their tri umph than even tbe Democratic par ty, which was forced to rebel against foreign domination and nominate Mr. Bryan. While every man in Ameiica who is opposed to the gold trust should have joined hands in support of the Bryan and Watson ticket, yet, when this could not be accomplished, the Peo ples Party with the most unparalleled patriotism, determined to do its duty and unite every voter in favor of finan cial reform for Bryan and against McKinley, in spite of the fact that the Liemocratic party would not meet them half way and do its duty. Thus, joint electoral tickets have been form ed solar in over tbree-fourtbs of tbe States on which so many Democratic electors have been put for Bryan and Sewall, and so many Populist electors for Bryan and Watson, thus giving: an opportunity to every voter opposed to the gold standard to unite their votes against McKinley and Hobart. If similar arrangements can be made in the remainder of the States, and the Republicans and tory Democrats fail to breed dissension in their efforts to get a number of Democrats and Populists not to support the joint electoral tickets, then victory is as sured. It is known that the Republi cans have put forward, so far, every eltort to prevent these electoral tick ets from being arranged. It is also known tbat tbey bave their agents in the field, trying to find Democrats and Populists to rebel against these elec toral tickets after they are formed. The only hope for Republican victory is in this scheme. It is to be hoped that no honest man will be caught in this goldbug trap. BRYAN'S INVASION OF NEW ENGLAND. Bryan's invasion of Xew England has been a marvelous success. It may not result in carrying any New Eng land States ; but the boldness and the courage with which he faced the agents of organized greed at every step, astonished and dumbfounded tbe Der oi great insurance companies, arraigned them- for their course this campaign in trying to force the gold standard upon the people, and appealed to them to relent in their heartless greed and support such course as would enable their policy North Carolina and insuring its be- holders to prosper, at least sufficiently ingcast for Hon.
