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 speeches were made in honor of Judge Crisp and glowing encomiums were paid to bis character and services. The meeting formally organized and Judge J. F. Watson was elected obair msn and Dr. W. P. Burt secretary. A motion was adopted to appoint committe to airranga a grand demonstra tion,|at each time sa may be agreed upon, In honor of Jodgs Crisp's election to the Speakership. This committee was authorized and requested to confer with members of Congmslonal committee from the vari ous counties of the district and request their co-operation in securing attendance from all the .-ountiis of the district. They were also requested to invite all Georgia Congressmen, Senators and Gov ernor Northern Motion also adopted that the chairman of this meeting forward to Judge Crlap, congratulatory telegram tendering him a grand reception upon Ills arrival at home and aaking him to signify the time that would suit him to meet with the people of the district at his home in Americus. The following is the com inlttee: A. S. Cutts, chairman of the commit tee; Judge W. F. Clarke, I>. H. William*, J. B. Felder, X. G. Prince, John Ed Thomas, D. C. X. Ilurkhnlter, X. A, Kay, A. D. Gatewood, M. Calloway, W, T. Lane, A. T. Oliver. C. M. Wheatley. This committee was empowered to appoint aub-committee. W P. Bi'ht, J. H. Watson, Secretary. Chairman BAR8AIN -AT- 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. Tin: skeleton at the Democratic feast, Little Tommie Watson at the election for Speaker on yesterday. 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. • - - — — ■—.- — Eumnt Gantt baa retired from aotiv# management and editorship of t)ia Southern AlUanco Farmer until he can recover his broken health.
