Waiting for the Returns.

To-day the great battle of ballots is
waging hot in every election district in
the Union. To-day will decide the ques-
ton of strength. Will the Democratic
PEOPLE be victorious, or will the Repub-
lican monopolistic robbers win? This
question is now in the minds of every cit
izen. Tonight very few patriotic Amer
leans will close their eyes in slumber un-
til the click of telegraphic instruments
bring the welcome or unwelcome news.
All America is awake, watchful and ex-
pectant. The all-absorbing questions of
the hour are "When will the returns be
imp" els New York safe % "Will
'Cleveland's majority be as large as last
time ?" We think that we can answer
the two latter questions in the affirma-
tive, but no one can be sure of which way
the election has gone until all the votes
are counted. Elections are queer things;
one party may feel confident of carrying
a certain county, or a certain district, by
say 1000 majority, but when the votes
are counted, just as apt as not the boot
may be on the other foot and the other
party have the majority.
We are now waiting for returns. We
think and hope that Cleveland is THE
MAN. Our party-true Democrats
made grand fight in every State. We
have earned the victory, and it ought to
be ours.
We have all confidence in Democratic
victory in Florida Fleming and all our
nominees have fought bravely-they de-
serve successfully are entitled to a big
majority-and we expect the good news
tonight.
Here, in Leon, we have big Republic
can majority to overcome. 1t is hard
work, but our forces have been putting in
telling ticks all through the campaign,
and today they are working at the polls
like beavers. We have faith. We know
that the better element of the colored
voters are in line with us. We think that
we can wire to the world toni ght that
Leon county has gone Democratic We
are ready to lift our hats and shout, but
just now we are waiting and watching for
the returns.

Facts for the Future.

The election of to-day in Leon county
developed few startling facts that our
people will do we'll to ponder and bear in
remembrance until the next election; not
that there is any apparent danger of
there ever being another Republican ma
jority in the county, but that Democrats,
black and white, may know what methods
were resorted to by the leaders of the
opposition who, at safe distance from
the scene, pulled the strings to make
their puppets dance.
1t is an incontrovertible fact that under
orders from Eagan and their other lead
ers the negro voters, for as many of them
as were too timid or ignorant to refuse to
be so herded in droves,O were organ.
lied into so-called "clubs," which were
really oath bound secret bands, pledged
with all sorts of horrible ceremonies and
hellish oaths, to vote only "the straight
Republican ticket" as we'll as to avoid
attending public meetings where they
were likely to be influenced on the side of
peace and good government by argu-
mcnts addressed, not to their passions and
prejudices, but to their intelligence and
understanding. These organizations, fort
unately, did not, and in the nature of
things, could not include any but the vi
cious leaders and the ignorant, timid and
vicious elements Of the race That thew
failed to accomplish their vile and incendi-
airy purpose, is without doubt, mainly due
to the refusal Of the more respectable and
intelligent elements of the colored race to
join these secret organizations and re-
enslave themselves by oaths and voudoo
ceremonies, pledging themselves to do
their utmost against peace, order and
good government in the county, All
honor to the free and untramelled and in
dependent colored voters who refused to
submit their free will to the behests of
their despotic and unprincipled leaders.
The exclusion of ballots for illegality, and
the effect of other strict applications of
the election laws, in making up. the
returns and canvassing the vote,
dwindled into insignifcance along
side Of the indisputable fact that
hundreds of intelligent and independent
colored men, Disguised with the disrepu-
table collection of names which they were
called upon to vote for on the Mongrel
ticket, boldly and honestly repudiated the
miserable thing, aud voted according to
the dictates Of honor and good con-
sciences

Party Fsalty IN Leon County Means Great Deal
More THIN Party Supremacy.
All honor to the County Democratic
Executive Committee
They have done their work well, and
for the first time in more than twenty
years, Leon county has GONE DEMO
CRATIC.
Democratic brethen, throughout the
State, throw up your hats and rejoice
with us. The Democratic Committee of
Leon county deserves your praise, and
the Democrats of Leon, black and white,
claim from you your heartiest congratu-
latiOns
The contemplation of the good work
wrought in Leon county yesterday will
be source Of satisfaction and encourage
ment to Democrats throughout the entire
State. The work was done quietly,
peaceably, honorably and with view
solely to the final and etfectua extin-
guishment of the last ve>tige of Republi-
can supremacy in Leon county. The En-
ecutlve Committee, as reorganized, has
conducted its first campaign with de-
gree of talent, good Judgment and sue
cess that will ensure to them the leader
ship of the party in the county as long
as they will accept its responsibilities.
The odds were fearful
The white Republican leaders in the
State had "passed the word for all the
colored voters in the county to organize
into so-caled clubs" which were in
reality oath bound clans, whose mem
bers were to ign the constitutions"
and take an oath to vote only
" straight Republican tickets - but
alas for their miscalcul2tions upon the TO-
norance and timi1ity of the race, as they
knew it and practiced upon it fifteen years
ago. The colored people of Leon county
have not lived peaceably and prosperously
under Democratic rule for eleven years
for nothing. They have made good use
OF the intelligence they possessed, and the
advantages Of education they have had,
and the opportunities for acquiring Cor
rect views of their situation and the
situation Of the county they have enjoy
ed l.; and the result is that many-hun-
dreds-of them have become convinced
of the hollowness and mockery of keeping
up show of Republican supremacy, and
have allowed their better feelings and
their sense of "the eternal fitness of
things" to control them and lead them
not into the Democratic fold altogether,
perhaps, but to consider, in our county
contests, their own interests, instead of
the despotic orders of their distant white
leaders and the frantic endeavors of the
professional politicians who assume to
lead them at home.
