The meeting took place at Con yers,
a small town about twenty-fire miles
east of Atlanta. It was to be the
f reat event of the Georgia campaign
t, was a cold, rainy, day, but the
"vool hat" boys care nothing for
rain and mud. They turned out in
force and some of them started out
after their chores were done Sunday
nightrto get -there in time to secure
places dose about tbe stand and pro
tect their third party. Evangel
White preached the new gospel ot
deliverance for the South. ( ; !
, Col. Liyingston took a large spec
ial train load of pure democracy from
Atlanta to see that he had fair plat
and to cheer .for him against the
wool hat" boys. His friends brought"
another special train from Augusta,
in Watson's district They had to
import dyed in the wool demcK racy
from all the Burroundiug towns . to
feel assured that they, would have a
fair and even chance with the alli
ancemen who are tflbJtound in all
the cabins idotti-north Georgia
and who look toJWeaver nd Watson
to give them sub-treasury legislation,

tneir present struggle, ; j ".
The champions, Watson and Liv
ingston, mtt at the little hotel f in
Conyersand the latter spoke of de
clarina the delate off because of the
rain, and the " lack of hall room to
accommodate the crowd of about
5,000, who were standing out in " the
Vet. But the 'Iwool hat" fellows
did not care for the rain, and de
manded that the fight proceed. W at
son was ready, LiTingston had to be,
and they went out to the little groVe,
where most'of the people had already,
assembled. ' They lef t it to a vote as
to whether the debate should be held
and thecrowd( voted yes with a ven
geance. . ; ' :
Col. Wateon opened his grip got
out his records and was ready, and
one of lieutenants held an umbrella
over the papers, while the colonel
turned up his coat collar, pushed
up his sleeves and began. '
, A political debate in Georgia is
conducted on the principle of a prize
fight in the early days. The cham
pion that has the greatest number has
the argument and comes out winner.
Watson seemed to hava the crowd
in" numbers and he certainly had it
in their deteimination to outdo the
democrats They had the. places
next to the stand. They cared noth
ing for the rain and they hated' -Eav3
ings ton more than any other demo
crat in Georgia, because they con
sidered him a traitor to the causa of
which he was the father in the state.
They also look upon Wa-tsoa a raore
than human and because of bis small
stature aud lack of personal presence
tbey; considered it their special privi
lege to protect him from men who
have greater physical power. "They,
"in their, ignorance, considered him
one sent by a higher power for their
(deliverance. They , were ready i to
f fight if necessary, and there were
lot of long-necked Georgia crackers
standing about with long knives up
their sleaves ready for business, i' '-
The knives were the most valuable
property about them and cost more
than the old coats that they wore

Watson realized that he could pre
cipitate a fight and in his opeuing
waa rather mild. ; He cautioned the
crowd not to cheer Wr create a, dis-
i turban ce, and assured his followers
;rthat he was fully able to take care of
- himself. Cob Livingston also asked

interruption. Watson made a speech
of an hour aud;a half as an opener,
but because of the interruptions,
which could not be prevented, it re
quired two hours for him to deliver
it. He said he was not there for a
fight, and would not indulge in per
sonalities, but although Livingston
iudorsed that proposition, it was very
much like a fight in a, few minutes.
' . Watson's speech was an arraign
ment Of the democratic party iu gen
eral, and of .Col. Livingston in partic
u tar.. He reviewed , the history. : of
the alliance movement froaa its be
ginning, quoted from the St. Louia
platform of ,1 889, which waa indorsed
by Col.. Livingston j and from the
Oca la platform, also mdorasd by
Livingston, to show that both Liv
ingstion and Gov. Korthen had de
verted the party that they, helped to
create. He openly charged Gov.
Northen with being a deserter andaf
having been bought.
Here tbe democrats cheered for
Northen and said they were proud of
him; Watson waited until both
tides had settled down from what
Eromised to be a free fight, he and
ivingston both pouring oil. ou the
troubled waters, aud then he pro
ceeded to show how Northen and
Livingston1 were both candidates for
governor. Northen secured the
nomination, and Livingston broke
with1 him on the sub-treasury plat
form of the alliance. Northen called
that platform anarchy and Livings
ton bioke with him, but now both
are calling it anarchy. Again tbe
crowd was ready to fight and both

Istarted another disturbance by dis

tributing copies of the Augusta
Chronicle making a severe atttck on
Watson. The "wool, hats" were ready
to mob him and Livingston induced
the man to go away before he should
be put away. . j
; Watson began again, when a large
banner made of rosea, with the: Jn-

a gift from the ladies of Con vers, and
it created such an uproar that Wtr

people with me in this fight." A
; "That's right, CoL T. we're With
you," shouted -a dozen alliancemen.
The democrats showed fight at this
and Livingston and Watson hid to
show their good feeling towards each
other to prevent a gcner.l pitched
battle.
Watson's next fire brand was a
quotation from Northen'a speech in
which he said: "Go home and strike
the wife of your youth now gtown
old, strike the innocent and prattling
child at her knee lifting up her yoice
in prayer, but don't strike tbe grand

His comments on this made) the

the force bill and quoted from south
ern democratic papers to show that
thef democrats Were afraid that the
republicans would drop that measure.
This cry of force bill had been used
by democrats to hold the south solid
for years. -It had been the only
power to prevent the laboring class3s
iu the south leaving the Democratic
party. The democrats were yelling
to the republicans: "For God's; sake
keep up the agitation on the oree
bill, for it's our only salvation in the
south. So lond ' as you support
such a bill in the north, we j can
frighten the south into standing to

of the south no longer feared tho
force bill, they wanted honest elec

domination. j :
The negro was not asking for so

but they did want and they should

The old father of the alliance in

the congressman for a minute, and
then he laughed it off and preceded

nWho framed the people's party?"
he asked, v j
"Coh Livingston!" came in a wild
shout of reply from tb farmer.
This the colonel denied and said
that it was framed at Cincinnati in
1891. All the Alliance planks, ex
cepting the sub-treasury plans had
been adopted by the democrat. It
was all in the Chicago platform sad
that was why be remained in tbe
democratic party. ' He claimed that
the alliance forbids political action
and the alliance men yelled hint down
with questions, to why he led them
into politics as an alliance party, and
where "Livingston's yard stick came
in.
He next tried to show the alliance
men that all they . wanted was the
Chicago platform, and in explaining
that he claimed it was for free trade,
for free silver, and for everything
elso the alliance asked except1 the
sub-treasury plank. In ' all this the
colonel came into collision with the
farmers again, and they relied for
Watson to show him "where he was
at" Then Livingston got mad and
swore that he bad more friends in
the crowd than had Watson. He
would prove it He called for a
vote by a show of hands. It was so
nearly even that he tried it again,
claiming that many democrats held
up their hands by mistake when he
called for. a peoples party vote.
"You democrats keep your hands in
your pockets, now," shouted the
colonel, "while these ?people's party
fellows vote." Thev did and the
show of hands was so great that
Livingston did hot call a second time
for the democratic, vote. Sa the

At Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in

ef September 1892, Chief Justice
Paxaoa of the Jtatei Supreme court
ispaed his personal warrant for the

treason or held for trial in bail
sjuvoanting to ten thousand dollars

Th aetouading outrage in a gov

culminating diabolism of a pluto-

devafttiag the citizens of Homestead
lor tbe last threa months.

Secure in their first victory ova
