Tme People's Party is eome
"hacks" in the South. A strip of
corn shack in the button hole is the
new badge at the political revival
meetings there. ' ' '
:- Irthe cholera expects to create
any fear down in Texas, it has
made a grand mistake. The Peo
. ple'a Party occupies the entire .at
tention of the Democrats, and they
have no time for trifles.
. 1 The Democratic National Com
mittee says in the X. Y. World that
it had every reason to expect the
Jame encouragement in Georgia
that it has received in Arkansas
; and Alabama. I The committee
ought to know what it expects.
- Its campaign fund, contributed by
ltf corporation repre sentatives, is
large enough to warrant the realiza
tion of its expectations.
' , . What has Cleveland been doing
aince he was discharged as presi
dent of the United States? Em
ployed by a firm of corporation at
' torneys at a salary of $50,000 a year.
' Its members - are interested in
various syndicates,; and this is
" where Whitney comes in. The ex
' penses incurred in nominating
' Cleveland at Chicago are nominal
' compared with the ; benefits they
will derive if he is elected.
; V t'JJo ' FroEiNG on the electoral college
'asj-f f -1.a favoite theme for the old party
papers. Each one requires about
two columns of space to prove that
' the other fellow isn't in it, while
,;' possibly their favorite is winner.
In the meantime the People's Party
- will take at least 100 out of the 444,
and if either of the other parties get
223 out of the 344 that is left, it
will be because Alabama and Ar-
- . kansas methods are adopted.
U. S. Senator Mills has been
campaigning in Texas a few weeks
and the nights he has seen and the
sounds he has heard has aged him
beyond the point of recuperationT
He now declines to be a candidate
for senator in the legisln tore which
: Texas will elect this . fall. He
knows what the complexion of that
legislature will be. What better
evidence can we have that there is
great political revolution in the
Booth? :
A correspondent asks,- "Where
are they at, in Alabama on elec
tion figures by the la?t return?"
The latest we have Been was the
"true results" published in the
Hearld of Montgomery in that state.
It there appeared that Kolb carried
57 out of 66 counties, with majori
ties ranging from 46 to 3000, or a
total of 51,012. In the other nine
counties, Jones figures out- a - totai
that gives . him -a ' majority, and
claims the state went Democratic.
THE'PTOpk's'Ta.ry, is the, Miily
partyl,wlnchappibiis ?th'e. rigUts
of the-' 'pte.l'liTis'pledgecr to
their mterc arid js'Ui 'oppb;si$n to
corpora te'iijonopoly in every . form.
Its platform has no uncertain sound
and has the same meaning in every
part of the union. Its candidates
are men of lrinh character, fully
qualified to conduct an adminstra
tion that shall result in national
prosperity. It is entitled to the
vote of every American citizen who
wants to see the government; nd
rainistratered : in .an economical'
fearless and impartial manner. ,
, "The Republican party is the
party of plutocracy. .. It cnarapions
the few; and oppresses the 11 any,'
who in return for favors rendered
are -only too glad to give every
financial assistance to a party that,
retained in power, will enable them
to still further augment their dis
honestly gained millions." So says
the N. Y. World in its issue of
September 19th. A Republican
paper would substitute the word
'-'Democratic" for the word "Repub
lican" in the first line and then it
would be good Republican doctrine.
Both are correct as judged by the
People's Party.
Weaver Rally.
Theie will bo a grand Weaver Rally
at Missouri Flat on October 22, with
basket dinner, given under the auspi
ces of Missouri Flat Alliance No. 211.
S. H. Holt and other prominent speak
ers will be present. All are invited.

Very Probable.
Chicago, Oct. 10. A morning pnjxjr
says the attempt was made by the local
democratic executive committee . to
bribe a messenger of the people's party
not to take his party's nomination pa
pers in this state to Springfield, and so
prevent their being printed in the offi
cial ballots. The sum alleged to bo
agreed upon was $3000. At the last
moment the messenger was changed
and the plan fell through. ,
Minnesota Fusion.
ST. Paul, Minn., Oct. 10. The
democratic state central committee
this afternoon withdrew the names of
D. R. Hibbs. A. L. Saekett and James
Brown from the electorial ticket, and
indorsed in their respective places
William Meighen, James Dillon and
A. L. Stromberg, the populists' candi
dates. They also indorsed A. II. Hul
loway, of the people's party, in place
of John C. Oswald, who resigned some
time ago.
Club Picnic.
The people's party club gave a picnic
at Soda Springs school hoii.se near
Shcpard's place, Sunday week. Quite
a large number went up from Ashland
and Talent, and about 200 were report
ed present, all told. Jas. G. Clark wiis
present and recited some entertaining
poems. Ira Wakefield was there ar.d
delivered a fine speech, and W. H.
Breese of Talent and Miss Colby, of
Ashland, helped to entertain the crowd.
A dinner, free for all, was served and
a general good time is reported.
WE4VEK AT PULASKI.
He "Denies the Charges Against His
Conduct During the War,
NASHVlLLE,Tenn., Oct. 8. General
James B. Weaver spoke at Pulaski to
day, despite the rumor he would be
badly treated for his alleged tyrannies
in that section during the war. The
men who made affidavits of his cruelty
remained away from the fairground,
where General Weaver spoke, and it is
thought by some this averted the troub
le. About 1000 people met the train on
which Weaver arrived. A procession
was formed or 1,370 people, led by a
band. General Weaver rode in a car
riage with Mrs. Lease and John U.
McDowell, a people's party elector.
By actual count 3,250 people passed in
the gates. Perfect order - prevailed
during the entire day and during the
speaking. General Weaver, in the
course of his speech, referred to the
charges made against him as command
er at Pulaski during the war. He de
clared nothing done by him here was
other than in accordance with the duty
of a military commander in such times.
He never did one single thing charged,
except the levying of 2000, which was
for careing for the negro refugees. In
conclusion he said: "I pronounce the
charges unqualifiedly false. The war
is over. I come on a mission of frater
nity. They said 1 dare not come; I
knew I dared come, and would have
come had the threats been a thousand
times stronger." . .. ,
: Good Looks. .
Good looks are more than skin deep
depending upon a healthy condition' of
the vital organs. If the liver be in
active you have a bilious look, if your
stomach be disordered you have a dys
peptic look, and if your kidneys be
affected you have a pinched look.
Secure good health and Vou will have
good looks. Electric - Bitters is the
great alterative and Tonic acts dir

ABSOLUTELY PURE
Is It Forgery f ;
E'tNA, Olt., Oct. Sth, 92.
Editor Southern Oregon Mull: ,
Recorder Holmes informed ma that
some one has changed the heading of
vof. those., petitions asking the
County board to place the. school Su
perintendent's salary to where it was
when 'elected by interlining and Mill-king
out so as to make them ask tha
board to increase his salary to SI.Q'JO
per annum. I tlont think Mr. Prico
would approve of iuch a'method, which,
to say the least, looks like forgery; for
who knows whether those pjtitions
wero changed before or after they were
signed. However, I think it is more
than probable that-they wero changed
after they wero signed. I dkmaxd
that the names of those; on petitions so
changed, be published, so that if there
has been .forgory committed, it may
come to light, I hope Mr. l'rice. or
some of his friends, w ill look after this
waiter at once. If it is forgery, the
public should know it.

Gen. Applegate.
Gen. Applegato was greated by a
large audience of three or four hun
dred in this city Tuesday night, most
of whom wore of iho People's party
faith. -He spoko entertainingly on the
fiuanco and carried conviction wi;h his
arguments. The Genend has e'cuied
from the corruption of the g. o. p. and
will lead many of the republicans out
of the old republican hulk before she
dashes to pieces against the plutocra
tic rocks of destruction. A few cf the
bitter ones will of course refuse to
listen to the Gen. who was at one time
their leader in the days of republican
purity and to whom they pointed with
pride. The people at last see that the
People's party is true lo the interests
of the people, and njuinst robbers in
placss high and low.
THE KOSTGAOE.
He bought In lr6. a farm of stump and stone.
Hit iiaiue was "ik) He GlottQcd," hl sur

He put a eoiic on the t-ta and then in cu

"In twenty yrara I'll pay 11 up", said (Jod Be
Glunacd.
The Mortgage bad a hungry maw and (iwal-
lowvd corn and wheal.
Do tolled witu pntlencc nigral and day to let
tho monster eat.
He slowly worked himself to death, and on t'je

They laid beyond the monster's reach, pood

And the form wi'.h .-.II of it' Incumbrances, of
moriKurv. stumps and stone.-.
It fell lo younj; Metchlxedec Paul Adoulrain
Jones;
Mclchlzcdvc was a likely youth, a holy, ttodly
man.
And he vowed to rauto the mortgage li'-c a no
ble puritan.
And he went forth every morning to the rupfed
mountuln side.
And dnp. as dug before him, poor old God He
Gltrilted.
He rained pumpkins and potatoes, down the
monster's thrvat to pour.
Who pulped them down and smacked his jaTrs
autl calmly aked for more.
He worked until his back was bent, until his
hair was tfre-y :
On the hill-side through a snow-drift, Uiey dug
his grave one day.
His tlrxi born son, Kllphalet. had no time to
weep and brood.
For the monster by his door-step, growled for
ever for bis food.
II o fed him on the garden truck, he stuffed his
ribs with hay.
And he fed him ergs and butter, but he would
not go away.
And Ellphalei ho ataggcred with the burden
and then he died.
And slept with old Mulehizedcck and God He
GioriUed.
Then the farm it fell to Thomas, and from
Thomas fell to John.
Then from John lo Eleazur aud the mortgage
still Itvcd on.
Then II fell to Kulph and Fetor, F.ll, Absolom
and PuuL
Down through nil the generations, but' the
mortgage killed them all.
About a score of years ago the farm came down
to Jim.
And Jim called in the mortgagee and gavo the
farm lo him.
There's no bumun heart so empty that it has no
ray of hopo,
So Jim gave up the ancient farm and went to
making soap.
lie grew a fifty milllonaro. a bloated, pampered
nature;
Uc owned ten ratlrouds, twenty mines, and the
whole state legislature.
And thousands did his gruff command, a&d
lived upon his bounty.
And he came home, bought back the farm and
the entire county.

Four doctors gave me up, saying I

myself up to my Saviour, determined if
I could not stay with my friends on
