for a man wno was not a friend
to the farmer's cause. "If that
is political treason, make the
most of it." He spoke of the
alliance "going into politics."
There was a mistake made by
small politicians in confounding
politics with partyism. In that
sense the Alliance was not
going into politics. The trouble
which is depressing the farmer
lies in the unjust and dishonest
financial system of the Govern-
ment. There is less than $7 per
capita in circulation. We ask

There are too few farmers in
Congress. Of the 417 members
in both houses only thirteen are
farmers. The majority in Con
gress belong to Wall street.
From owning over half of the
property of the country, the
property of the farmer has been
reduced to 23 per cent, of the
whole, while they pay SO per

(VORDON AM) THE HOYl'OTT.
The Goveiinor s Idea of Retaliation,
if the Force Bill is Passed
New York, July 22. The Herald this
morning publishes a dispatch from Guv.
Cordon, ol Georgia, in which the wr
nor states that he is in entire accord
with the spirit, tone, and practical u
gestions ot the Atlanta Conclitution tie
to tbe Ufeof the boycott as a nieuus of
self-preservation and commercial inde
pendence. if the useless and infamous
Force bill becomes a law. Moreover,
the governor says that spirit will pos
sess and control approximately every
white man, woman and child in the
Southern States.
The governor says that over sitce the
bill passed the House, he has hopud that
some of tbe Republican Senators would
be found patriotic enough, broad and
brave enough, to prefer the well being
of the country to party ascendancy.
But if this hope is not realized, and the
Force bill bocemesalaw, he will use
whatever influence be may possess to
arouse tbe Southern people to the neces
sity of looking only to their ejchauetlees
resources.
"We will," he says, "welcome to
our section all of our countrymen of the
North, who may wish to live among us,
and we will still protect all their invest
ments and rights of property by im
partial laws and honest courts, but we
shall counsel a return to the old system
of the election of representatives by a
general ticket, if needs be, or a resort
to any lawful, peaceful meant) in order
to protect the right of choosing repre
sentatives, and to rehit the wrong of
having them choneu for us by foleral
Bupervi ors. "
The Governor concludes hid letter bs
follows: "We will Btill endeavor to
keep peace and promote good will be
tween the races, and sim-erely hrpe
that the Southern negro, r will not de
stroy their own property by roimortinu
with those whose mad policy rhreateos
the well being of Doth races. We hh!l
still hope that after thope years of ap
parent reconciliation, of runtored con
fidence, we shall not see the whole
current of national sentiment turned
backward and downward by sectional
legislation which has no poRsible justi
fication nor rational excuse."
THE IDEA OF A BO SCOTT.
VANCB AND GOkMAN I'RONODNCK THE
BOYCOTT IDEA "SENSELESS.''
New York, July 23 A number of
diepatchea are published in the New
York papers this morning from points
ia tbe Southern States on tbe subject ol
the suggestion put forth by the Atlanta
Constitution, and endorsed by Governor
Gordon, of Georgia, that in case thr
federal election bill becomes a law. a
boycott should be resorted to, against
Northern commericisl bouses, and
Northern products.
The Herald's AtUnta dispatch says
the Chambers of Commerce of New Or
leans, Birmingham, Lynchburg, Augus
ta, Montgomery, Savannah and other
Southern cities, telegraph to the Con
stitution favoring a convention of the
commercial South to consider tbe
course to be adopted if the force bill
passes. Richmond telegraphs that ii
does not deem anything like a boycott
advisable, as do Charleston nd Mobile
Baltimore and Chalttnooga;their organ
ization are uon political, but they urn
strongly against the force bill.
A special from Birmingham, Ala .
states that a mass meeting will be hrLl
there toaay to protect the p.,'sige ol
election bill, also that a meeting of tht
Chamber of Commerce ban been calh-d-for
the same purpose.
Dispatches from Atlat.ta, it-port tin
following prominent nin us favoring
the boycott idea: Ex Governor Bullock,
Patrick Calhoun, of the U'l-hiniiiid Ter
mioal System, Hugh T. hman c itton
merchant and btuik paeBident; Lowrj,
Hill and Hurt; Cel. Shorter, L..esideui
of t e Alabama railroad commixKion
Reports fro"m Little Rock indic.-itr
that while the paesage of the bill would
be very cfTenBivo to the busineas men ol
Arkansas a boycott is not generlly ap
proved
nd i
Liieutenant-Uovei nor Knul.tui, a
President Allis, of the
Bank are among tho
taking tbia view.
First National
mentioned as'
Prominent citizens of Austin, Tt xas,
look upon the boycott BjBtem with dis
favor. They insist that no good would
come of it, and that if enforced the
South would suffer a much at the
North. The belief there seems to be
that the conservative anil patriotic ele
ment of Congress will be able to defeat
the bill.
The Herald's Washington correspond
ent says Buch of the Southern men there
as he spoke with deprecated the boycott
idea, while most of them declined to
talk about it Senator Vance and (ior
man, however, freely expressed them
selves ai opposed to the boycott agita
tion, which they consider an "s nne
less."
