An Overwhelming Victory.

The MORNING NEWS advised the demo-
Gratis of Georgia many times during the
state campaign that closed on Wednesday
TO snow the Peoples party under 50 deep
that It would never be heard Of again.
The advice seems TO have been acted upon.
The returns have been received from nearly
all the counties and the democratic ma
jority is about 10000. That IS a much
larger majority than Mr.. Cleveland re-
ceived in the state in 1884 or in 1883. IL
1884 his plurality was about 1900, and in
1883 10000.
The Peoples party eau hardly be said 10
have been in the election. 1t carried only
about counties out OF the l37. II will be
unknown virtually in the legislature. It
may have one or two senators, but it is not
yet certain that it will, and it will not have
a dozen members OF the House. II is not
even in position to charge that there was
fraud. Its defeat was 50 overw helming
that 1t is practically paralyzed It is doubt
full If it will recover sufficiently to make a
respectable appearance in the November
election
The Peoples party counted s. good deal
upon help from the republicans. 1t got
some help from that source in certain ot the
counties, and so did the democrats. 1t is
worthy of notice, however, that where the
blacks had candidates OF their own for the
legislature they voted as a rule only for
them.
This suggests the question whether, In the
national election in November, they will
vote for members of congress or only for
the republican electors. No doubt the re-
publican leaders will endeayor TO get them
to vote for the congressional candidates of
the Peoples party. They tried to get them
to vote for the candidates Of the Peoples
party for state officers and failed, and there
is no good reason for thinking they will sue
coed any better in an effort to get them to
vote for the congressional candidates of that
party.
In Wednesdays election the democrats
had a majority in each of the Congressional
distriots Even in the Tenth, Mr.. Watson's
district, the democratic majority was over
/ 500. In none of the districts will the
Peoples party be able to poll bigger vote |
st the national election than it did at the |
state election. II is quite certain, therefore,
hat Georgia will not only give her electoral
vote to Mr.. Cleveland, but will send a solid
democratic delegation to congress.

An Auspicious Week.

The current week has been full of en-,
! couragement for the democracy and dis
couragement for its enemies. The Florida
| and Georgia elections, the declarations of
Judges Gresham and Cooley and Wayne
Mac VeAgh Tor Cleveland. the abandonment
Of an Anti-Tsmmsny municipal ticket in
New York, the favorable reports from In
diana and other doubtful states, the enthusi-
astlc meeting Of the national league OF dem
ocratic clubs and Mr. Cleveland's speech TO
that body have all conspired to brighten the
outlook for the democracy and plunge the
republican managers into gloom.
Another factor of encouragement to the
democracy, which occurred last Saturday
night, however, was the Tammany pri-
mary In New York. Although the polls
we're open for only two hours, and there
was no contest in any district to bring out
an extraordinary vote, something like
30 600 ballots were cast. And even then all
Of the voters who turned out did not deposit
their ballots, from the simple fact that the
crowds were too great to be accommodated
in the polling rooms during the short space
Of time that the polls were open. The full
significance Of this will be apparent when it
is stated that under ordinary circumstances
Tammany primary usually polls 5000 to
10000 votes. This latest primary, there
fore, is a warning that Tammany is out
''for blood y that the braves have on their
war paint, and will turn out in full force
in November to vote for Cleveland and
! Stevenson.
Mr.. Stevenson's speeches in Ohio, also
are said to have been remarkably effective.
| Ohioans have been used to hearing tho Nc
Kinley side of the tariff with brass band
and tin horn accomplishments, so that when
Mr.. Stevenson came along and in his quiet
logical way. pointed out the injustice Of and
the inequalities in high protective tariff,
they were pleased with his style and many
were captured by his.arguments.
On the whole, the democracy could hardly
ask for conditions more favorable to its
success than those which now exist. One
or two more such suspicious weeks and the
battle will be won!

The pirect Trade Movement

1t begins to look as il all obstacles to the
Inauguration OF direct trade between south
ern ports and Europe would soon be re-
moved. Col. Stovall and Col. Avery are
pushing the direct trade movement with q
vigor that is almost certain to be crowned
with success. Recently they have been de-
voting a great deal of time to getting
southern and western business men inter-
ested in it with the view of bringing i'm
ports intended for the south aud west
through southern port, and they are much
gratitied by the hearty manner in which
their efforts are appreciated.
In another column Of this issue there is
an account Of a meeting of business men of
Admission, Ala, that was called for the pur-
pose Of considering the direct trade ques-
ton. The meeting was an enthusiastic one.
Not only we're those present ready to give
every encouragement in their power to di-
rect trade, but some of them expressed their
willingness to join a party Of 100 to visit
Europe next year by way Of southern
port.
Doubtless other places in the south and
west will soon follow the example of Annis-
SOAi AZ ShSOui aging OOl. olOfhu ana COl.
Avery in their work. II the south and west
take hold Of this matter earnestly, and with
a determination tosucceed. direct trade will
be accomplished before the more conserv-
alive people reach conclusion as to whether
or not it is feasible.
There is absolutely nothing needed to in
sure direct trade except the guarantee of an
amount Of business sufficient TO protect
steamship company that may establish
line of steamers between a southern port
and one or more ports of Europe from seri-
GUS loss, and it is pretty safe to say that the
guarantee will be given. II towns and
cities interested should show the sans
amount Of enthusiasm that Admission is
showing the railroads that would be
benefited would have little if any, hesita-
ton in giving the guarantee, because it
would be apparent that they could do so
safely.

WAYNE Macveagh,e Letter.

The republican papers have very little to
say about Wayne MacNeagh's letter giving
reasons why be will vote for Dir. Cleveland.
They cannot answer it satisfactorily and 90
they wisely ler It alone. II IS one Of the
features Of the campaign. Coming as it
does from one who has stood high in repub-
lican councils for many years and who has
been appointed 70 u cabinet position and
foreign mission by republican Presidents
it is damaging blow to the Republican
party.
The letter would not attract a great deal
OF attention, notwithstanding its unan-
swerable arguments, If It were the produc-
ton of disappointed politician or of a man
who has grievance. But Mr.. MacVeagh
has nothing to complain Of. he is satisfied
with the treatment he has received from the
Republican party, and has only feelings Of
kindness for Gen. Harrison. He has de-
termined to vote for Mr.. Cleveland because
he believes it to be his duty to do 50. The
force of his letter is in the fact that be
gives expression to what doubtless is work
ing in the minds Of thousands Of other re-
publiCans.
He objects to the tariff aud force bill
policies Of the Republican party. lie re-
CARDS them as sources of the greatest
danger. He points out that the force bill
was not revived because there was public
sentiment demanding it, but because GER
tain ambitious politicians thought It could
be made the means of strengthening the
Republican party and enabling it to retain
control Of the government.
The main reason, however, why Mr..
MacVeagh cannot vote for Gen. Harrison
is that be does not approve the Mckinley
tariff, which he says places heavier burdens
upon labor and the farmers Ito increase
the wealth Of the very wealthy owners Of
most Of our protected industries. He is
of the opinion that while the projection
policy OF the Republican party endures
political corruption is absolutely sure to
increase.
The republican leaders are making a
great mistake if they think the people can
be misled much longer by the assertion that
the farmers and lsborers are the chief bene-
fciaries OF the protective system. The
Mckinley tariff is practical dsmonstra-
lion Of what the protective system IS The
people have felt its burdens and have seen
none of its benefits. It will be strange,
If they vote in favor of a system
which Is the cornerstone Of the Republican

The Strategic Citizen and the Robher

The Strategic Citizen and the Robber.
"Your money or your life" and the sober
citizen who had been detained downtown was
halted by the desperate and soulless robber, says
the Chicago Mail.
The scene was on the corner of one of Chi
cago's fashionable thoroughfares, and from the
star-lit skies Polaris and the peaceful Pleiades
looked down upon the two men, one of whom
held a revolver pointed at the others head
Not another person was in sight. All was quiet
Your money or your hfe," repeated the
fiendish hIghwayman.
I'm give you my money" said the citizen
"but upon this condition-that you put some
to tell my friends how bravely l defended my
self and will show these holes in proof of what
| say"
The robber sees visions Of how easily he can
win nice sum of money and complies.
That's right, Now another shot here through
the lapel of the coat [shot fred. Now one
not Craze the flesh Third shot Bravely done
Now one through the leg of the trousers and
the coat tails fourth and fifth shotsl Now we
must have one through the coat and vest
will open my vest thus, and you fire so it will go
through both thicknesses Of cloth. The boys
up to the club cannot say was not badly used
up."
The robber gets interested and fires the last
shot in his revolver through the unoffending
coat, whereupon the sober citizen turns upon
him, and drawing his own weapon compels the
robber to surrender the empty pistol. The
mRlefactor is marched into town aud handed
over TO the duly constituted authorities, and the
sober citizen is the hero of clubdoln.

A rich German merchant named Andreas
Schwendemann, aged 70, who lives in New
York, recently illustrated the adage. .
There is no fool like an old fool" He
made love to pretty Emma Hermann, aged
Il, and then sought to retire from the suit
on account of his age, But Emma couldn't
see 1t in that way. Andy might be a regu-
lar Ieutonic Joey Bagstock, "shy and
devilish tough" if he pleased; but Emma
would not be sighted for less than $50 900.
For that amount, if the court will give it to
her, she will pocket her broken heart and
let old Andy make love to another girl, if
he is still silly enough.

The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals has lately been waging vigorous
warfare against the brutal practice among
society" people of docking horses tails.
The operation consists of amputating a
part Of the horses tail bone. aud the effect
is to leave a stumpy brush whore there was
once a graceful tail. IL is an English fad,
and Americans have only recently begun to
practice it to any great extent. The s. P.
c. AS active work, however, is likely to
put stop to the cruelty. In Philadelphia
a day or two ago leading society lady was
brought before a magistrate, convicted of
and fined for the otfense and it is likely
that the example made OF her will have its
effect with others of the swell set.
