Show I AHEAD OF ALL. ' la the midst of the general gloom one r fact stands out moat brilliantly. This : is the fact that The Times distanced all , competitors in giving the people the news. IU splendid stereopticon display drew the biggest crowd in town, and that crowd enjoyed the same facilities for gettica: the facts that were enjoyed by similar crowds in the great cities of ' tbe-conntry. The Times returns were impartial and were so displayed as to give everybody a chance to read them. The Democrats obtained their first news of victory from The Times can-. can-. vas. At 10 o'clock our bulletins said: " "We concede Harrison's defeat at the . polls." The returns indicated this re-. re-. suit unmistakably and good journalism ' demanded that the fact should be i frankly announced at the earliest moment. mo-ment. That announcement was the eignal for the beginning of the Demo-' Demo-' cratio jubilee. The Times tells the truth, and that is why the people read it, irrespective of their party affiliations. |
