THE VERDICT OF THE PEOPLE.

The victory is complete, the sovereign
will Of the people has been expressed in
every hamlet, village, town and city through.
out the entire land in condemnation of the
Republican party, and Cleveland and Hen
bricks have been triumphantly elected and
will on the 4th Of March next be inaugu.
rated President and Vice-President.
A. P. German, Chairma Of the National
Executive Committee, has issued the fol-
lowing:
NEW YORK, Nov. 6, 1890 p M-The
National Democratic Committee announces
TO the people of the United States that
Grover Cleveland and Thos. A. Hendricks
have carried two hundred and nineteen
electoral votes for the offices of President
and Vice.P President. The States which have

kansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida,
Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana,
Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, New Jer-
sey, New York, North Carolina, South
Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and
West Virginia. casting in all two hundred
and nineteen electoral votes, eighteen cleo
toral votes more than sufficient to elect No
fraud or continuance can defeat the will of
the people of the United States thus pu blicly
and deliberately declared.
A. P. GoRMAN, Chm.
At still later hour Senator German was
serenaded at the Democratic headquarters
in honor of his distinguished services and
the splendid triumph OF the National Demo-
cratic party.
Daniel Manning, Chairman OF the Demo-
cratic State Central Committee of New
York, says:
''By the official returns reported from
every county Cleveland and Hendricks
have carried New York State by safe and
sure majority. No Vaccinations or false
claims, or pretended doubts of Mr.. Bane's
managers can change this result Friends
OF honest government and honest elections
can be everywhere assured that the Demo
cratic State board of canvassers will see that
the true vote is correctly declared"
The Associated Press, known to be in the
interest of the Republican party, sends the
following:
1.-THE official county returns, and very
close figures on the twelve counties which
have not been officially reported and COM
pared, indicate that Cleveland's plurality
will be considerably increased, reaching
nearly one thousand In the State"
1t will thus be seen that the National
Democratic party has, beyond all doubt,
elected its candidates.
In spite of all this evidence of the cleo
ton of Cleveland and Hendricks, the Re.
publican Executive Committee have issued
an address congratulating the country upon
the election of Blaine and Logan, hoping
TO prepare the way for fraud such as pre-
vented the installation of Tilden. Any al.
tempt, however, to again perpetrate another
gigantic outrage upon the will of the peo-
pile will be met with such determined re-
sstance upon the part of the great body OF
the American people as will send dsmay
and terror into the ranks Of the condemned
criminals Of the Republican party. 1t will
be no irresponsible mob, but the intelligence
and patriotism Of the country rising In de.
Tense of the institutions of the country and
the liberties of the people, as guaranteed by
the Constitution.
1t is evident that the people will not longer
have the sacred right of suffrage interfered
with by the unprincipled leaders of the Re-
publican party. Let one electoral vote be
tempered with and 1t will invoke such a
cyclone Of Indignation as will sweep the
guilty marauders from the face of the earth
Grover Cleveland says, II believe | have
been elected President, and nothing but the
grossest fraud can keep me out of it, and
that we will not permit"
This expression has significance which
no sensible and rejecting man can fail to
understand, 1t means that there will be no
repetition of the electoral fraud of 1879. II
means that Cleveland is to be inaugurated
peaceaby If possible, but forcibly if neces-
sary
The verdict of the people has been re-
ceived, and no fraud or violence will pre-.
vent Its faithful and honest execution.
Cleveland has been elected and the great
honest masses Of the country will see that
he is placed in the Executive chair of the
nation. Once clothed with the Legitimate
powers Of the government he will be able
TO take care Of himself.
