WASHINGTON. Oct. S.-ReplylnS to
an inquiry from the Atlanta Journal as
10 his opinion of the result OF the Ge0r-
Eia election, Senator Butler to-day sent
the following telegram:
1T Is almost certain that majority
OF the white votes OF Georgia was cast
for the Peoples party ticket. This Is q
great gain over the party's last vote and
due 20 the personal popularity OF Tom
Watson in his own state. and 10 the de-
sire OF the people to r-buke the manage
ment Of the Democratic party in the
state affairs OF Georgia. Evidently the
Democratic party Is indebted to the
negro vote FOR whatever kind OF VIC
tory they have won.
The outlook FOR Bryan and free Sill
yer IS much better than It was ten days
ago. The reaction against the schemes
and methods OF the Republican party
has already set In. and will grow In
inrcc Tntil the day Of the election. This
proves the imputeHCy OF L doodle cam
paigu, when the people are aroused on 4
great and vital issue. The present Indl-
cations show 80 electoral votes reason
ably certain FOR bryan, with at least an
equal chance for S-yrnty-iive more.
MARION BUTLER. Chairman"
Senator Faulkner, OF the Democratic
congressional cOmmtt:rr. expressed the
opinion that in the presidential election
Georgia will Increase her Democratic

trustees discovered Mr.. Marsh was in
