THE UNION RESTORED
Since the first gun was fired at Kurt
Sumter, no erent of so great national
Import has taken place as the eleotion
to the Speaker’s chair of the House of
’.Representatives of the United States
-of a citiz- n of Georgia, the State of Ben
iHili, Stevens ami Toombs, the master
spirits of the Southern Confederacy.
The war which began in April, 1881,
was ended December 7th, 1801, when
Charles F. Crisp, a soldier of the late
Confederacy, was chosen Speaker.
Inch by Inch have Southern States-
-men fought back the tide of sectional
hate, which permitted no diminution in
Its venom, even though Lee and Grant
-shook hands over the bloody chasm more
-than twenty-six years ago. By forbearance
4>y wisdom, by moderation, Soutliorn
statesmen have demonstrated their sin
cerity, no less than their wisdom; and at
last the final death and burial of section
alism la accomplished. At last the re
united sisterhood of states admits by its
aetlon the forceful truth of Ben Hill’s
eloquent words in the halls where Crisp
now presides: “Thank God, we are In
our father’s house, auo wc hare come to
stay.”
DURING THU HOLIDAYS.
A Stirring Demon*!ration In Honor of
•fudge Crlap
At an enthusiastic gathering of the
citizens of Americus last evening seieral

Tub action of the meeting at the city
hall laat night in appointing a committee
to arrange for a big Crisp rally and jubi
lee when the Speaker comes home will
be productive of good results, and some
thing msgnlficent in the way o f a dem
onstration is to be expected.
ELLAVILLE REJOICES.
In the person of Charles F. Crisp, sit-. Cka> r e ar i r Horn* Boiiinx Over
ting to-day where no Southerner, save
Carlisle, a Union man, has sat for the
third part of a century, Is found the
liviug proof that the war is at last over,
and tlie Union restored.
While Southerners and Georgians, and
the friends and neighbors of Judge
Crisp in Americus rejoice with exceed
ing great joy at the good fortune that
has come to him and to them, let them
not In this hour of happiness forget that
a far greater cause of triumph exists
than is to be found In the elevation of
any one mar to toy position, however
exalted. It is that the seventh day of
December, 1801, marks the red-letter
day In the calendar when the North and
the South, the East and the West, joined
hands In fraternal greeting, and laid
forever to rest the corpse of sectional
hate.
Tiik true ^Allianceraen, Livingston,
Mom and Everett, cast four Alliance
rotes In the Democratic caucus for
Crisp, worked four eloquent tongues in
his behalf inside and outside that body;
won supporters to his cause from their
Western brethren, and east four solid
Alliance votoa against Big Tommie KeCd
and Little Tommie Watson In' the elec
tion yesterday. A hundred moreauch
Alliance Democrats aa these would not
lie out of placa In Congress.
Oib special from Washington this
morning states that ths preliminaries of
the Presidential Nominating Convention
are soon to be arranged, the Executive
Committee meeting at the oapitol Janu
ary 81, to fix the time and place for
the man to be pitted against Blaine.
Now let Amos, the prophet, keep that
rabbit's foot handy; and tee that some
of the good luck It gave Crisp la trans
ferred to the Democratic presidential
nominee.
David B. Hill, the Gubernatorial
Senator, or the Senatorial Governor of
New Turk, aa the caae may be, Ipas
shown hi* skillful band as a political
power in helping bis friends; and Judge
Crisp has much to thank Hill for In the
support be gave, counteracting aa it did
the elforta of such men as Carlisle, Dick
inson, Vilas and other leading Mills
Tux Times-Becobdkb regrets to see
that so great a man aa Roger 9- Mills has
proven himself to be oould not' rise
above the chagrin of defeat and accept
the result gracefully. H!a reply to' the
reportera|“I have nothing to say to the
press,” does not Indicate that serenity
of spirit that would have characterized
Crisp under similar circumstances.
The rabbit’s foot that Amos, the
prophet, carried back to Naw York with
him last June proved a true mascotte
for Crisp, and demonstrated beyond
cavil the eflesdes of that talisman aa a
true Inspiration of prophetic power.
Ik rou want to road the meat eloquent
speech ever concentrated Into adoxen
lines, read Judge Crisp’s inaugural on
the first page this morning.

With Enthusiasm.
Ellaville, December 8.—Ellfcvllle
to day in her enthrislaam over the elec
tion of Crisp reflects the feelings of
Americus as tire soft sound of a summer
brook resembles the grand roar of a
mighty sea.
Our people were never quite so happy
over any democratic victory. Business
this morning was almost suspended and
in groups on the streets the people dis-
cussed the joyful news. Tire low price
of cotton and hard times were for the
time forgotten, and everybody wears a
smiling face. Many Burners have been
id town to-day rejoicing
- Our village will not yield lior claim to
this distinguished Georgian. Although
his fnme has expanded until In Its cm
brace is encompassed the Uniou, we
know his heart-strings still cluster
closely about xllavllle, where in young
manhood he plucked the fair flower who
has been the Inspiration by his tide since
he mss the village lawyer.
Many here have watohtd With pride
his footsteps M he elimbed tbe dizzy
heights, gnd now. In the altltuue of bis
fame they glory.
