The echoes of the senatorial election
still reverberates throughout the .State
and South.
there is another row over the site
of the World’s Fair in Chicago. Chi
cagj ought to put up—or shut up.
Now that the elections are over let
Georgians turn their attention to the
work of building and developing the
grand old Empire State of the South
This is a work upon which we can all
agree.
General Gordon never won a great
er victory during the war than that ot
Tuesday. Georgians followed him
when he wore the gtay, followed him
into the very jaws of death, and they
followed him again last Tuesday,
McCuuc, after the vote was an
nounced which elected Gordon, pack
ed his grip and started for Washing
ton. lie had tried to force the alli
ance men to swallow Pat Calhoun
and they repudiated his interference.
“Instead of a law to regulate elec
tions in the south, we need oni to put
a different face upon elections in the
north,” ruefully remarks the S'. Louis
Globe democrat, as it contemplates
the fearful slaughter in the ranks of
the g. o. p.
—— —
The first Greek ever elected to con
gress will take his seat when fi e 52nd
congress convenes. His name is Lu
cas Miltaides Miller, and he hails
Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Miller is a dem
ocrat and carried his district, although
ithasb-ct overwhelmingly republi
can.
The names of the brave and con
scientious alliancemett who, nuawed
by threats; unmoved by coramauds ol
Macune and others, refused to vote
for Calhoun, the embodiment of rail
road monopoly and money power, but
cast their votes for John B. Gordon;
we say that tbe names of these true
Georgians should be enshrined in the
hearts nnd memories of the people.
They have served their state and
country well.

field to-day received a dispatch from

been ordered to the Rosebud and
Pine Ridge Agency to restore order
among the Indiana, who had passed
beyond control of tho Indian agents.
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 18th, 1890.
Editor Times-Kntkiii"iihe:
You have had the result of to-day’s
election by telegraph, and I know how
it must have thrilled Thomasville, but
no telegraphic account, nor indeed
any written nr spoken account can
give you any idea ot the scenes en
acted in this hall to-day. The Senate
was to vote at 11 a. m. and the House
at 12 m. An effort was made by the
anti-Gordon men to change the hour
in the House to 11, so that tin resu’t
in the Senate, which it was admittid
by all would be in Gordon’s I ivor,
could not be used in the House for
Ins advantage. The Gordon men
were wide awake and under the iead
of Atkinson, of Coweta, and Fleming,
of Richmond, defeateJ this movement.
The galleries filled up early with spec
tators and after awhile a few ladies
were admitted to the floor. It was
almost impossible to keep order
enough to transact any business,
though the Speaker did his bes .
Twice a motion to take a recess was
made each lime by Gordon men, but
they were withdrawn almost as soon
as made as the leaders realized that it
would be a mistake to give the antis
a much of an opportunity for consul
tation. The vote in the Senate, hav
ing shown that Calhoun, the nominee
of the caucus, was virtually out ot the
race and that their chance was to
concentrate on Norwood or Hammond.
Finally the hour of 12 m. having ar
rived,the preliminaries attended to,the
nominations began. Mr. Reed, of
Putnam, an allianceman ' nominated
Gen. Gordon. There were many
seconds and the enthusiasm was some
thing never excelled, if ever equalled.
Every mention of Gordon’s name or
any reference to him caused cheers,
shouts, stamping and waving of hand
kerchiefs all over the house and in
the galleries. Mr. Berner made a
most eloquent speech in seconding
Gordon’s nomination, although it was
not in order, but he could not be
brought to order as all the visitors
and a majority of the House were on
his side. Finally the roll call began
and as it closed Gordon had
83. This lacked two votes of being
majority oi all the votes cast.
When Mr. Kimbrough changed to
Gordon, making 84, the enthusiasm
was great, but when Mr. Norman, of
Liberty, changed to Gordon, giving
him 85, a e'ear majority of all the
votes cast, and insuring his election
without another ballot, the crowd
went mad, visitors thronged all the
lobbies and aisles, and even pressed
around the speaker’s stand and clerks’
desk until no work could be done.
Norman was seized and mounted on
the shoulders of half a dozen wild
Gordon men and cheers, yells and
cries ot all kinds were so gre it as to
make a perfect babel of sound. Af
ter many and repealed efforts the
speaker succeeded in restoring order
sufficiently to taken down enough
more changes to run Gordon’s vote
up to 97,'and then, on motion, to de
clare the House adjourned. Gordon!
Gordon !! Gordon !!! then rang all
over the House, and tne Senator was
brought in and said a few words, dur
ing which the booming of cannon
commenced, and everything was in a
glorious state of exuberance. Sena
tor Colquitt was caught and forced to
say a few words and then Hoke Smith
made a fine speech of about five
minutes.
Yours Truly,
C. P. Hansell.
Another Democrat Elected.
Chicago, Nov. 19.—Tho count of
the Second Senatorial district was
completed Monday, and shows the
election of Kenny, Democrat, to the
Legislature instead of Ilopkin, Re
publican, hithcito supposed to be the
victor. This, in 11 sense, increases the
chances of the Democrats electing a
United States Senator, but does not
alter the fact that the balance of the
power between the two great parties
is in the hands of three members of the
Farmer’s Mutual Benefit Association.
