of my twenty-two years residence in
this county, in paying my taxes
promptly, and that the co;i)micsioncrs
sliced out $92.92 cents on my fhial set

that I do not owe tho county anything
it equally true.
But I wish to submit to tho people of
this county this proposition: Of the

Jound in tho condition of our laboring
people, in tho poverty, tho starvation,
tho awful death of men. women and
children of cold and hunger right hero
iu our midst hero in Atlanta, in Geor
gia, in the sight of the mouth-piece of
Democracy, who have told the peoulo
to work harder and oat less; in hear
ing of the leaders who havo sold their
party and their country and their
peoplo to Wall and Lombard streets.
Think of it, you men whoso cotton is
selling to-day for less than it cost you
to produce it! Here in your own cap

without bedding, without enough cot

Hero they aro dying, and thero stand
your Democratic bosses, telling you
and telling them to wait until the
Democratic party gets limo from
coquetting with Walllstreet locomo to
their assistance. Wait! These mon
waited; but death wa3 swifter
than tho Democratic party to

they havo gono to their last account
gone to stand in tho presence of tho

tho politicians havo dealt with tho
people. For, before high heaven, the
men who have dictated the financial
legislation of this country and those
who consented to it aro responsible
for these things for tho sufffirinn-s
