HOW THE SOUTH FEELS.
Satisfied With the Appointments Given
That Section.

Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, April 2.-Hon. o. A. Lochrane,
ex-chief justice of Georgia, is in the city. A
reporter interviewed him on the feeling in
the South in regard to President
Cleveland's administration, more particularly
in the matter of appoiD Dtments. He said ::
''The South is so unanimously and solidly
Democratic, and so entirely satisfied at hav-
ing been able to elect Democratic president
that the people there are inclined TO view with
the utmost satisfaction anything that Presi-
dent Cleveland may do. Having defeated
the Republicans and secured the government
for the Democrats, they are
NOT INCLINED TO FIND FAULT
with any of the presidents acts, no matter
what they may be-"
Chow do his appointments strike theml"
''They are as well satisfied with his ap-
pointments as with everything else that has
been done. The South has secured fair
share of his appointments thus far. Georgia
has no reason to complain of the portion
allotted to her in the appointments made.
Henry r. Jackson, who goes to Mexico, is
Georgia man, Lamar was origi-
nally from Georgia, Alexander r.
Lawton, who goes to Russia, is a Georgia
L
George H. Pendleton's father was Georgia
man, and, l think, Pendletou himself was
born there, and a number of
OTHER APPoISTEEs
were at one time Georgians. Ny friend
Roberts, who goes to Chill, may be as well
claimed by Georgia as New York. l
don't think he will cause any ex-
posion there, though. So you see
We have no right to complain that Eve have
been overlooked or forgotten in the matter
of appoin ntments."
''How do they like his profound adherence
to the civil service reform law:"
"Thev understand that the senate is still
Republican, and that no radical changes
would be acquiesced in, and in that view of
the matter they have not given the other side
of the question any consideration. In their
general satisfaction over
DEMOCRATIC VICTORY
they have lost sight of any minor considera-
tions of that nature"
How does the South generally regard
President Cleveland's protectionist proclivi-
tiesf'
''Do you mean his apparent leanings to
Randall rather than TO Carlislei Well, as /
said before, the Democrats of the South
are SO well pleased at seeing Demo-
cratic president in Office again and the
government in the hands of Democratic
administration they are not going TO allow
any questions on the tariff to divide the
party The South is not at all united on that
question. Watterson does not represent
their views on that question. Many of the
people are getting well of now, and manu-
facturies are spriuging up on all hands They
are getting railroads and railroad interests
are becoming important 50 that people are
beginning to agitate the development Of
HOME INDUSTRIES
aud to advocate the financial policy, which
will best stimulate and advance their deyei-
opueuts. There is no general outcry for
free trade That question is not going to be
pushed into prominence so as to become
disturbing element In the party"
'.You think, then, that taken altogether
Cle7elaudis administration thus far has been
satisfactory and successfult''
'.Emiuently so. There is nothing out sat-
isfactiou expressed on all sides. The people
are satisfied and it would be hard to make
them dissatisfied With anything that CIeye-
land might DO"
