POPULIST BOLT GROWS BIGGER Middle-of-the-Roaders - The news & observer. - August 24, 1898 - Sherwood White

 

POPULIST BOLT
GROWS BIGGER
Middle-of-the-Roaders Will
Hold a Convention.
NAME STRAIGHT TICKET THE FORMAL (ALL HAS ALREADY BEEN ISSUED. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, IS THE DAY
Delegates to the Wilson Convention Last Saturday Declare They will Not Ab de by its Action-Some of the Best farmers in the County Among Bolters.

The movement to put out n straight Populist ticket in Wake county, foreshadowed hy the bolt from Wilson's Republican side-show held here last Saturday, has begun to assume shape. A petition calling for a convention of “all Populists in Wake county In favor of maintaining the principles of the party,” was circulated yesterday and within a short time received a number of signers. ,

Those interesting themselves in the matter propose to hold their convention in the court house next Saturday week (September 3) and nominate a straight Populist ticket for the county. That the meeting will be a lively one is a foregone conclusion; that some straight loir, stuff will be dealt out is indicated bv the announcement in the petition that the signers there of "maintain that the righteous principles of the Populist party should never be sacrificed for office alone or for the benefit of a few.” The formal call for the convention is as follows:

Believing in the justice of the principles of the People’s party, and that
the evils under which this country labors will never he remedied until
such demands are enacted into law, we maintain that these righteous principles should never fa* sacrificed
for office alone, for the benefit of a few. Therefore, in order that wc,as a party, may maintain our integrity and preserve the autonomy of our party, we issue this call, and appeal to all Populists in Wake county who favor maintaining the principles of our party, to meet at the court house in Raleigh, on Saturday, the 3rd day of September. ISOS, for the purpose of nominating a straight
Populist ticket for the county.

According to the statements of those interested in the meeting not only tin above -all of whom are well-to-do representative Wake county farmers —but many other Populists in Ihe county arc disgusted with the Lit** Wilson convention. Among them, they claim, are a number of delegates to fm* convention who did not bolt but who now declare they will not vote for either the men nominated by the Populists or those yet to be named by the Republicans. 1 saw three such delegates yesterday and they expressed themselves very freely on the subject.
“We are not Democrats.” they said, "any more than we are Republicans.

We are Populists, that and nothing more. AVo believe in the principles of that party and we do not think the time has come when we are compelled to desert them or choose another political organization. AA’hen it docs if will be time enough for its to choose new associations. But enemies within our own ranks are seeking to deliver us over to the Republican party. 

We don't propose just at this time to be delivered that is all there is of it. Our cal! for a convention is simply a protest against being traded like cattle to the Republican party by Otho Wilson.”
Other epressions to the same effect have been heard within tin* past few days. There can be no doubt that the bolt is a serious one—much more serious than was at first believed by the managers of last Saturday’s convention.
