The time for doing it is near at hand. When Tillman was in augurated the bonds of the State- commanded a premium of about 5 per cent. What is the condition now? W. T. Bates, State Treasurer, in his last report to the General Assembly, says: From the statements or ex hibits given in this rejiort, an idea can be found of the condition of the financial affairs of the State. No one can say that they are in an “eminently satisfactory condition.” An investigation clearly shows that they are in an eminently unsatisfac tory condition. The State Treasurer, speaking of the act of the Geneial . Assembly authorizing the refunding of the bonds, says: “I complied with instructions given me in the act, and had proper notices inserted in news papers; I also had circulars and copies of the act printed, and notices given that they could hc had upon applica tion by parties desiring information, and havy sent out a large number of copies. Copies of the circulars and notices are furnished with this report. I also had prepared with much care the necessary hooks in which to re cord all transactions under the re funding act, and duplicates of these books for the offices of Governor and Secretary of• State. An agreement was euterered into with the American Banknote Company to furnish the necessary plates and to engrave the bond and stock certificates as needed.” The Treasurer goes on and tells us he ordered and paid for hundreds of thousands of bonds and stock certi ficates. He says he has been able to exchaiige only $29,309.70 of new four per ccmts. for an equal amount of Brown Consols. He acknowledges he has failed to refund the debt at four per cent. Georgia refunded her debt at three per cent. It is clear a I ill-, man Administration cannot refund it at all. The above facts are taken from the report of the Comptroller General, a book Tillman promised two fears ago he would ask the Leg islature to print ten thousand copies, and would distribute them among the people that they might know what is being done. Citizens of the State, what shall we do to avert the calamity? We must get rid of Tillman or sink to the bot tom and live in the dregs while he- and his gang feast on the fat'of the land at our expense. Tillman, by bis acts, has clearly shown he has no knowledge of our popular form of government and laws. He is domineering, dictatorial and- tyrannical. His conduct has shown he is dangerous and utterly unfit to hold any official position. He has involved the State in lawsuit after lawsuit, in every one of which hc is wrong except that of Coosaw. It was based on the opinion of Attorney General Connor, given in 1877 and concurred in by every Attorney Gen eral since that time. Tillmuii’s Ad ministration is entitled to no credit for gaining it, hut deserve censure failure. If he is as anxious for the success of the principles and measures of the fanners’ movement as he is to till his ]lockets with gold and silver rocks ifiid have a good time, he will quietly retire and advise the farmers to look for another leader.

I have heard all my life, you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink. Farmers, relying on Tillman's | promises, and anxious for the success of our cause, we took him up from nothing and elected him Governor of the State.
