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. The Federal Treasury. Washington, Nov. 19.—The Treas urer of the^United States, James N. Huston, has submitted to Secretary Windom his report on the operations and conditions of the treasurt for the fiscal year ending June 30.

Miles, stating that troups had 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.
