RxATNE 0N THE VICTORY.

It Was NOt a Struggle For Spoils But a
 Triumph of Protection.
 AUGUSTA, Nov. 12.-The Republicans to- night celebrated their national victory by an illumination and torchlight procession. end- ing with a call upon Mir. Blaine, who in the course of brief congratulatory speech said: "Many persons from inattention to the course of events and some from mere oynicism re- gard presidential election as only struggle for the spells of office. Certainly spoils can not profoundly affect the interest or call forth the efforts of great people among whom opportunities for business and fortune are greater than in any other nation of the world. It was something far deeper than spoils that called the Republican strength to the polls and no question but that of protection could have done it. We have sharp rivalry as Democrats or Republicans in the earnest struggles of the campaign, but when the cleo ton is over we remember that we are all joan citizenship-citizens of the east and the west, of the north and the south-citizen- ship of the great undivided, individual re- v1y7 hlio
