to be Of great advantage to him in man
aging the foreign affairs of the nation.
FLORIDA Times Union, Dem.]
It's "four moro years of Grover" sure
enough, and glory enough for one day.
The result is rebuke against the robber
tariff of the Republican party, the Repub-
lioan force bill and Repu blican extrava-
gance in the conduct Of the Government.
Republican defeat cannot be explained
away upon any other grounds. So it's
goodbye to the grandson and tho hat and
another welcome to the "man of des-
tiny"
Norfolk Virginian, Dem.]
tits wonderful victory for the cause
Of right, the cause of good government,
the perpetuation Of civil and religious
liberty and thorough union Of all the
States. Sectionalism will no longer con-
troll the Government of the country. The
danger of usurpation by the few Of the
rights of the masses has passed away,
and, It is hoped, for ever. The people
have exercised the great right Of fran
ohise in an emphatic manner, and the
verdict of their course is the guarantee
that the Republic is safe.
Macon, Ga, Telegraph, Dem.]
There is happy nation this morning.
Thousands of Republicans stayed away
from the polls because they could not
approve their party's policy. There
must have been many more thousands
whose sense of loyalty carried them to
the polls, but who at heart disap
that policy. These will not grieve when
deliverance from McKinleyism and the
force bill.
raleigh, N. c., Chronicle, Dem.]
His election is the peoples victory. 1t
is a triumph of the people over the money
power and tariff barons Of the Republi-
can party. Itisa clear result on the tariff
issue and shows that the country is for
tariff reform. The House Of Representa-
tives is Democratic by large majority
and the Senate will be Democratic after
the 4th of March. .Ihas will give the
three departmants> to the Democratic
party fox-She first time since the war.
This result is the triumph Of political
morality and public decency and argues
well for the perpotuity OF four Republican
institutions.
baltimore Sun, Dem.]
The Democratic victory In New York
in 1892, contrasted with the defeat of 1888,
illustrates the value of harmony to the
party in the Empire State. 1t illustrates
also the potency Of honest leadership to
secure harmony. With g man like
Cleveland as the acknowledged head Of
the Democratic host New York is not a
doubtful State and should not be 30
accounted. In this campaign righteous
issue had q worthy exponent. The case
was the same in 1888, but the people had
not then had time TO think it all out.
Now the Democratic party reaps the
reward of adherence to principle and OF
continued loyalty to its best adviser.
The campaign of education has brought
about che expected result.
Philadelphia Inquirer, Rep.
The contest Is over. There are sur
prises, and Illinois heads the list. NO
Republican believed the State in danger.
No Democrat really claimed it. The city
of Chicago has done the work. AS for
New York the result there has shown
that that State is Democratic when the
Democrats are united. They were united
this year, and this fact, added to certain
apathy which kept many Republicans at
home, gives the thirty-six electoral votes
to Cleveland.
The country has spoken. The majority
of the citizens of the States have given
their verdict. To this verdict all must
bow, The result is not as the Inquirer
would have had 1t, but the Republican
party has been overruled, and every good
citizen will accept the decision.
washington Post, Rep.]
To Mr.; Cleveland upon his success the
Post extends its sincerest congratula-
tions. The wisdom of his nomination
from Democratic standpoint is trium-
phantly vindicated, He was nominated
in the face of an adverse delegation from
his own State He is elected with the
party in New York never before so har.
moniously organized, and his bitterest
opponent of six months ago rendering
him effective and loyal support. He will
doubtless give the country clean, able
and honest administration. He will re-
turn to the Chief Magistracy with prac-
tical experience Of its duties and obliga-
tions that will stand him in good stead,
and give so much the greater assurance
of his aeceptability and usefulness to the
people, who have SO oonspicuously hon.
ored him with their confidence.
Norfolk, Va. Landmark, Dem.
1t will mean the prompt checking Of
the tide of foreign immigration, which
threatens to sIbmerge the United States
socially and politically. It will mean
cheaper necessaries of life to the average
man and woman all over the land. It
will mean free raw material to all our
manufactures and open markets in every
part of the world for the products OF this
country. It will mean a restoration Of
the policy Of the Government in all res
poets to what is was in the beginning
the greatest good to the greatest number
and will furnish wonderful testimon-
ial to the innate moral strength Of Amer
lean manhood. It will mean the safety
of our institutions and will again demon
strate the fitness Of the men of this Union
for self government.
Atlanta Constitution, Dem.]
Let the Democrats profit by the lesson
and remember in their administration of
the affairs of the Government that public
officers are but representatives Of the
people, and that their efforts should be
directed in behalf of the whole people and
not part of them. Let them remember
that tho Government belongs to the
whole people and that the party which
seeks to pervert its functions to the build
ing up Of a special class, protected and
fostered by Federal favor at the expense
and injury of the great mass Of the peo--
pie, WILL De QOom6u 10 uHuLLelaule auu
inevitable defeat, sooner or later Let
them remember that the inviolable sane
tity Of the ballot-box, and the right of
the people to conduct their elections
without the assistance of Federal bayo-
nets or the intimidation of Federal dicta-
ton, invokes the assertion of the supre-
NEST privilege of every American citizen
In his right to vote as he pleases, without
the interference of partisan intimidation.
New York Times, Dem.]
The Chicago Convention, in taking Mr..
Cleveland as its candidate, planted itself
firmly on the ground Of principle. 1t set
forth distinctly and honestly the policy
for which it asked the approval of the
country, and defined, without prevarica-
ton or evasion, the issue on which it
challenged the party in power to go
before the people. And throughout tho
canvass it has fought on those lines. Tho
campaign on tho Democratic sido has
been one Of candid and able discussion.
There has been no claptrap, no appeals |
to purblind prejudice, no paltcring in
