Pickens Sentinel-Journal : I will see if 1 can send you a few c dots from tins part of the Lone Star J State. My stay here has been l>ut i a short time, hut I think this is a line country lor a man that wonts to farm. It is a broken country here, but healthy. There is but " Republican Money Back of the Populist Campaign? Though Thomas K. Watson in his speech accepting tho Populist nomination for President at Cooper Union, New York, on August IS, said that Roosevelt "stands for those governmental principles which, in my .judgment, ure hurry-; ing tins Republic into a sorhid despotism of weaith," the full speech is being sent broadcast as a Republican document* The New York World states that the Republicans are Imping by this means to estrange "the voters of the Bryan Democrats from the National Democratic ticket.'' "A. Populist campaign in this State,'' continue? the World, "is to be made with a plentiful supply ol funds, and ? state organization, it said. It is openly intimated that there are not a few Republicans who would subscribe liberally to the Populist cause for the purpose of deflecting Bryan votes from Parker." "In this connection it is an uouncad that Thomas 10. Watson is to deliver forty speeches in doubtful state", an<l, strangely enough, at the procisc points where they mii/ht ho expoeU'd to do most harm to the Democratic- ticket. Mr. Wntson has been in frequent consultation with a number of men hereabout his plans. Some of these men were formerly closely identified with Bryan." In connection with the efforts of Populints to uul Mr. Roosevelt, Democrats are citing this trenchant paragraph from M> . Roosevelt's pamphlet on tlie campaign of 18iMi: "Thrift, industry, ami business energy are qualities which are quite incompatible with true Populistu* feeling. Payment of debt, like tlio suppression of riots, is abhorrent to the Populist mind. Such conduct strikes the Populist as immoral.'* A Second Election Ordered. In accordance with the rules of ti e Democratic I'artv in South Carolina, the 10 x? ntive Com initio o!
