ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 1Q-No democrat in
the country watched the result OF the cleo
ton with keener satisfaction than did
Speaker Crisp, who is at his home in
Amerious. To-day be was asked
by an Associated Press representa-
i've for an expression On the result.
aud said; The election Of Cleveland and
Stevenson by so large a majority brings
happiness to millions of the American
people. It demonstrates the omnipotence
OF honesty. All the vast fund contributed
hv the monopolists and tariff bar
ons of the country for the
purpose OF debauching the fran
chiss hGs proved Intellectual, and the
plain, practical, Independent people of the
United States have asserted their rights and
again taken the control of their govern
ment The defeat VI President Harrison
removes a dark cloud from our horizon.
The threat # the force bill has had
a tendency TO paralyze our industries
aud domestic commerce. Capital, always
rimid, would not seek investment in the
south when there was a prospect of the
passage Of law which would dis

dispels this cloud and we may now hope
for the restoration of confidence aud re-

MEANS LOWER TAXES.
"Mr Clevelands election means that the
people want reduction of taxation. The
republican policy of high and proscriptlve
tariff has been demonstrated to the people
as the most injurious to

have it, the Democratic party will enact
such a tariff Jaw as will raise al ample fund
for the economical administration of the
government and at the same time cheaper
10 the people all the necessaries of
life. II we cannot increase the price
TO the cotton producer of what be makes
we can increase the purchasing power of
what be gets for his corn crop, and thus
greatly benefit him. This is true of every
other industry in the country. All will be
benefited by a reduction of the tariff and
q correction of its inequalities.
1.-THE election of Mr.. Cleveland means an
honest, economical administT ations of our
affairs. All classes, high and low, rich and
poor, can feel, and In their hearts do feel,
that, with Mr.. Cleveland as President, their
every interest, SO far as in him lies, will be
completely and thoroughly protected.
The people have come to their
own again Government by and fol-
the people has been restored and those who
obtained power by questionable means four
years ago have been relegated to the rear
We all rejoice. We are all happy, and We
feel greater admiration for our neighbour
and our friends to-day than we felt yes
terday.
FELT CONFIDENT OF VICTORY.
al have visited many states during th'
campaign and on my return home believed
we were going to win, but | did not know
by how large majority that desired result
would be attained. We had the strongest
candidates in the country; they stood
on a platform which met the approval
of the people and our campaign has been
magnihcently managed. Locally, we have
routed our adversaries The third party
was in Georgia Insignificant in numbers,
but practically there VAS a fusion between
It and the republicans, so that we
had TO contend against the combined
strength of both. The republican managers
in Georgia had printed upon their tickets in
each district the names of the third party
candidate for congress. This was practi-
cally an Endorsement Of such candidate by
the republicans, and the Colored people
generally voted the ticket as it was
received from the headquarters In the
congressi onal districts the number of third
party votes which the third party candi-
dates received for congress is represented
by the number of votes which were cast for
Weaver. All in excess of that number
were cast by the republicans
We have great occasion for rejoicing
Our victory means local self-govern-
rnent and home rule; it means
lower taxation and larger commerce. Ii
means honesty and economy in public
affairs. In a word, it means the triumph OF
democratic principles, and in their triumph
alone is to be found the happiness, indie
pendence and prosperity Of the great masse:
of the American people"
