Crisp it is!
TueTimks-Recokdkr has always said
it would be Crisp.
■ If you see it in The Times-Rkcok-
nxn it’s so." Look back and tee what It
baa said about Judge Crisp’s nomina
tion.
'' •‘Speaker Crisp” sounds all right,
-and some of these days it will be “Sena
dor Crisp,” and then look out for “I’resl
■dent Crisp” nbout 1900.
Glory enough for Georgln for one day,
and for Americua in particular, which ia
now the biggest city of its site in the
world, and has the biggest citizen.
The .editor of The Timeh-Recohkeh
has always been strong in the Crisp
filth, as everybody can testify. He can
■now say ”1 told yon so,” because be did
'We noticed the other day where some
-Alabama farmer bad raised 800 bushels
of turnips bn an acre and a quarter of
land. Tbit looks like our soil ia suited
to other thing* aa well as cotton, and
the farmers are not obliged to raise cot
ton at 7 cents. Turnip* raised in the
northwest are now on sale by our mer
chants at $1,00 a bushel.—Autaw, (Ala.)

Tub official vote for Governor In Ohio
is as follows: McKinley, R. 983,720;
Campbell, D , 363,228; Ashenhort, F.,
20,190; Seitz, Peoples, 23,472. McKln-
ley’a plurality over Campbell 1* 21,501,
and the popular majority against biro is
22,132. The vote ls'tbe largest erereast
at a Governor’a election in the State.
The total voto 1* 48,272 short of the
total of 1888, the latter being 841,941,
MoKinley had 28,323 lesi than Harrison
Campbell was 31,227 behind Cleveland.
So suboeney did the good news of
Crisp’s nomination come upon the peo
ple last night that their heads were
turned, and no systematic arrangements
were passible for any sort of proper ex
pression of the publio joy. They could
only about, nng bells, blow whistles and
indulge In other extravagant demonstra
tions. Bnt {to-day the leaden will get
together and arrange a program for to
night under the auspices of the Young
Men's Democratic Club of Sumter couu
ty; and aucb a time aa everybody will
have! Let everybody be preaent!
Governor Flower will be inaugurat
ed and the legislature will aaaemble in
New York in the Ant week of January,
and the Democrats will at once proceed
to reform the evil* that the Republicans
have fastened on the State. The first
work of the legislature, which is Demo-
cratlo now In both branches, will be to
pass a law providing for n new enumer
ation of the State, and the reapportion-
■meat of the assembly and congressional
districts which will give representation
In the legislature to over one million of
people, wboie demands the Republicans
have persistently Ignored.
BUPFOSE.
Suppose the grain oropa of the United
State* next year should be small.
And it is hardly probable that the
enormous yield* of this year will be fol
lowed by another year of aa great abun
dance.
Suppose Europe should also have small
crop*.
Suppose either the United States or
Europe should have short crops, and It
is not probable that both will have large
erope.
Under any of these conditions prices
for grain would continue high, aa the
world will have very abort atocka car
ried over into the crop year of 1892.
tf both Europe and America ahould
have small,crops, wbioh Ir a possibility,
it it difficult to say where prices
would go.
Under these circumstances, what are
8 juthern farmers going to do? Are they
going to raise another large cotton crop
and sell it at a loss, and buy their corn,
wheat and provision*, or an they going
to raise their own foodstuffs of ail kinds,
as they can readily do, and be independ
ent of the price of Western corn and ba
con, and then have a smaller cotton crop
at higher prices as a surplus?
The present low pries of cotton will
prove a blessing if it drives Southern
farmers to raising their own foodstuffs.

CHARLES FREDERICK CRISP.
No event in the history of Amertcus is
of so much significance as the election
of Judge Crisp to the speakership of the
House of Representatives of the Fifty-
Second Congress.
With his elevation to the most conspi
cnous position in the government short
of the Presidency, comes a world-wide
celebrity for this distinguished citizen
of Amerions, In whioh this oity cannot
bnt share to a groat extent, and his
triumph Is also that of bis friends and
neighbors. For twenty-four years
citizen of Amerious be is thoroughly
identified with her people, and as his
record shows, they hare ever delighted
to honor him.
Charles Frederlok Crisp was born on
the 29th of January, 1843, in Sheffield,
England, where his parents had gone on
a visit; was brought by them to this
country the year of his birth; received a
common school education in Savannah
and Macon, Ga.; entered the Confeder
ate array Id May, 1861; was a lieutenant
iu Company K, Tenth Virginia Infantry,
and served with that regiment until the
2th of May, 1864, when ho became a
rlsoner of war; upon his release from
'or'. Delaware in June, 1865, he joined
his parent* at Ellaville, Schley county,
Georgia; read law in Americus, and was
admitted to the bar there in 1866; began
the practice of law In Ellaville, Ga.,
where he married Miss Clara Belle Bur
ton in' 1867; in 1872 was appointed Solic
itor-General of the Southwestern Judi
cial Circuit, and was reappointed in 1873
fora term of four years; in June, 1877,
was appointed Judge of the Superior
Court of the same circuit; in 1878 was
elected by the General Assembly to the
same oflica; in 1880 was re-elected Judge
for a term of four years; resigned that
office in September, 1882, to aacept the
Democratic nomination for Congress;
was permanent President of the Demo
cratic Convention which assembled in
Atlanta in April, 1893, to nominate a
candidate for Governor; was elected to
the Forty-eighth Congress, and was re
elected to the Forty-alnth Congress as a
Democrat, receiving 0,063 votes against
4,286 votes for B, F. Bell, Republican,
and 93 votes for Reese, Independent Re
publican,re-elected without oppoeltlon to
the Fiftieth, Fifty-first and Fifty-second
Congresses, he has surely risen to the
front rank of American statesmen; and
to-day at noon he assumes the gavel of
the Speakership, the highest and most
honorable position In the gift of ills col
leagues.
Here he begins to enter a higher plane
of his career, and from this time forward
bis record will continue to brighten and
expand, until be la called by the grate
ful people of Georgia to occupy the
higher station of a Senator In the other
wing of the capltol.
