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.) Mirror. 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. —Manufacturers' Record.

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.
