Says Mr.. Cleveland.

Atlanta. Ga. Dec. 1.-THE Atlanta
journal. this afternoon, published an in
terview with former President Cleveland
obtained 10y a staff correspondent AT
Princeton. n. J. Mr. Cleveland is quoted
as follows:
In my opinion the great need OF the
Democratic party is a return to first prin-
ciples. 1ne Democratic party has not
been fatally disorganiZed. but il sadly
needs rehabilitation on purely Democratic
lines.
What is the matter with the party?
1t has in my humble judgment simply
wandered on after strange gods. large
mass OF Democratic voters saw this be-
fore the last election. They remained
quiet, but when the time came to vote
they said: This is not Democracy and
refused to support il.
AS l see it. IL is the duty OF Democrats
everywhere to aid in the rehabilitation OF
the party. There are some signs of an
insistence upon the necessity OF return
to Democratic doctrines in the South, but
they are not so general as | would like
to see.
What Of the future?' was asked.
with a sincere return TO its old-timc
doctrines, Mr. Cleveland replied, the
old-time victories of the Democratic
party will certainly be won"
