Jsfrghoaa, 4a, CONVENTION ’ AFTERMATH The Delegates Returning Home Afte the Enthusiastic and Exciting Scenes of Thursday. BROTHERLY LOVE IN THE RANKt I •'li« Platform I* Sufficiently 0 remit ait. Sound for Georgia Democracy to Stand Plat-Footed on It and Defend lfivery Plank. •Atlanta, Aug. 3.—(Special.)—Hon. W. Y. Atkinson, accompanied by tyra. Atkinson, left for home at 1 o'clock today. ’’ i Hon. Steve Clay, chairman of the rfew state commjttee which will man age the campaign, also left for home this afternoon, and tonight there are no perceptible evidences of the trig gathering of yesterday to be seen in the city. (Many of tho delegates and visitors left last night, but the city was still astir with tAem during the morning hours of today. There was a good deal of jubilating last night over the con vention’s work, nnd many of those who caught the early morning train for home had «a sleepy look that bore un- mlstakabte evidence of the depth tof their Democratic-enthusiasm. Everybody felt good over yesterday's work. Many anticipated some sharp clashes In the'eonvention, but the har mony and unanimity that prevailed was such ns have characterized few politi cal gatherings In this state charged •with work so Important to the party and the people. The -two things most discussed have, of course, been the platform first and then the resolutions providing for the re-election of delegates ‘to future state conventions on the same day In the counties of the state. Every one ap proved 'this resolution heartily. There has.olways been dissatisfaction with the-way delegates have been, selected ! to state conventions, and the change, which was brought about fey (the Bibb delegation, 1s regarded as a most im portant step of advancement In the political methods of the state. Of the platform every expression has been one of satisfaction. Both wings of the party ore to all appearances enthusiastic over the work of the com mittee. In fact, the platform fits the situation so well th&t it Is claimed.as the particular property of both those who favor the policy of silver coinage ns advocated by Mr. Cleveland as well as those who have persistently Insisted that there Is no necessity to wait upon the slow, hut without doubt safe and sure, policy of International agreement. There was never any . disagreement among the party representatives as to the coinage of both metals on a parity. The only disposition to disagree with •the report of the committee when! the platform was , read last night came from the (Bibb delegation. Mr. Wash ington Dessau of that delegation want ed the resolution indorsing Mr. Cleve land and his 'administration which was passed at the 'Bibb county meeting in corporated. He made 'a stirring speech in favor of his position, but the con servative part of the convention thought It best not to let down the bars, but to accept the report of the committee ns a whole. On the question of Indorsing Presi dent Cleveland there was never -the least danger that -that would be neglected. Even those who differ with him most radically would not have prevented this Indorsement If they could. There is a well founded ouspl- don today that all the talk of this latter clement was a bluff put up to counteract the enthusiasm of ‘those on the other side of the financial ques tion and never Intended to he taken as a serious protest against the wis dom or patriotism of the great leader. Governor Northcn, who returned from Chattanooga In time to be present dur ing 'the latter scenes of the conven tion, fakes a very bright view of the outlook for the party now. He thor oughly Indorses 'the platform nnd reso lutions, and feels 'that they give the party a sure footing'1n the ensuing contest with the Populists. The plat form represents largely the individual views of the governor, and when he takes the .field for (Mr. Atkinson, which he says he will do to the limit of his opportunity, he will have a familiar text to preach upon. Col. Atkinson !s well pleased with the platform. In his speech to the con vention he asked for a clear-out declaration of principles. He has got tt, and will be fighting on home ground when he takes up the Democratic cudgel to drive Popvrllst Hines to the bushes. Following Is the full text of the plat form and resolutions adopted by the statue convention yesterday: THE PLATFORM. "We, the representatives tof the Dem ocratic party of Georgia, In convention assembled, declare our unfaltering faith in the principles which brought the party Into existence under the wlise lead ership of Jefferson and which gave vic tory to the Democratic party In 1802 un der the masterly. leadership of Grover Cleveland.
