Democrats Still Celebrating the Result of the Election.

TARIFF REFORMERS AT A BANQUET.

Grover Cleveland Discusses "The Gam* palgn of Education "—Addrenfiei bjr ^.Various Other Lenders—Ovation to Mrs. Cleveland.

A NOTABLE GATHKKINO.

NEW YOUR, Dec. 24.—The Tariff-Re-form Club held a grand banquet Tuesday night in the new concert hall of the Madison Square Garden to celebrate the recent Democratic victories. The attendance not only of banqueters but also of onlookers was. very large, covers for 500 being laid, while the galleries were filled with brilliant array of people, of whom ladies made a prominent part.

At about 8:!10 o'clock Mrs. Orover Cleveland accompanied by Mrs. John G. Carlisle and other ladies entered one of the boxes in the first gallery. Mrs. Cleveland's appearance was the signal for every man at the tables to rise to his feet and amid a waving of handkerohiefs Mrs. Cleveland was given three cheers, which compliment, she acknowledged by rising and bowing.

When the feasting was finished Chairman Wheeler, iu a brief speech, introduced ex-President Cleveland as the first speaker of the evening. Mr. Cleveland said, among other things, in an address opsthe toast, "A Campaign of Education!" "The grand and ultimate objeoi of the campaign of education was the promotion of the welfare of the country and tbe relief of the peo* pie from unjust burdens. As soon as the campaign was inaugurated the party v&s quickly marshaled us of the olden time, aggressive, courageous, devoted to its cause and heedless of dlsoonragemen?. or defeat. Day by day and bour by hour expediency aod time, serving were thrown to the winds. Traitors wero silenced, camp followers fell sway or Joined tho scurvy band of floaters, -while the sturdy Democratic host confidently pressed on, bearing aloft the banncr of tariff reform. If any have wondered In the past at the tenacity and indestructibility of our own party their wonder should oease when, In tbo light of tho last tbrce yearn, it is seen how gloriously it springs to the front at the call of Its duty to the people and in obedience to the summons of party loyalty and obligation. "Thus the education of the campaign meant, as related to the Democracy, its awakening in response to the signal for its return to the propagawdism of Democratic doctrine* No one who remembers the hilarity with which the loaders of the Republican party greeted the message of tariff reform, and the confidence with which tboy prepared to meet and crush the issue presented, can fail to see how useful a lesson has been taught them in our campaign of education. Within twenty-four hours after the submission to Congress of tho question of tariff reform, sundry Senators and Representatives belonging to the Republican party were reported to have JtfttfiV ily ventilated their partisan exultation In the public press. "Hit be true that a Senator from Nebraska said 'It is a big curd for the Republicans,' thin big card can not appear remarkably useful to him now, for his Slate to-day contains a big curiosity in the shape of a Democratic Gov-ernor-elect. "If the junior Senator from New York de clared that his party would carry this State by the largest majority ever known if they could be given the platform proposed, tho reply will come when in a fow days a Democratic colleague Is placed by his sido. "If a Senator from Maine declared 'it lua good enough platform for the Republicans—we want nothiog better/ how is It that he is now so diligently endoavoring to And out the meanIng of the word reciprocity? "If a Senator from Wisconsin gleefully said he was glad to see us 'show our hand' he can not fail to be convinced, when he soon gives place to a real good, sound Domoorat, that there was, after all, more in the hand than ho cared to sec. "If the present Speaker of the House sarcastically said,'It only shows what fools all the other Presidents have been,' he may well bo excusod, since he has lately so thoroughly learned that in the sight of the people In fallibility is not an attribute always to be found in the Speaker's chair. "If tho Representative from Ohio whose name is associated with a bill whloh has given his party considerable trouble of late said 'if tho Democratic party had hired Burchard to write a stump speech it could not have suited us better,' li must be that circumstances lead ing to his approaching letircmenUlrom public life have suggested a modification of bis judgment. "As our campaign has proceeded other unusual symptoms have been apparent among those prominent in directing the opposition. Some of them have become Insubordinate and dlsoontentcd and at times actually disobedient to party orders. Some have left the ship. One shrewd and weather wise navigator has olambercd oft, and In a frail bark, with the word 'Reciprocity' painted on Its stern, was soon hovering near, prepared to olirab aboard again or sail away as wind and wave would appear to make most safe. At the present stage of the campaign the unwieldy party hulk of Bourbon Republicanism is still afloat, but damaged and badly leaking. "Of course wo do not overtook the fact that before their present predicament was reached and in their first battle with IH the enemy gained a victory over tariff rofonn. This Is confessed and we may here only refer to the methods by which that viotory was gained for the purpose of saying that we thoroughly 'understand them, and that If the henellclarles of tho^e methods are satisfied with the condition they have wrought we also are not without eompen tfation. That wo have cause for hatlsfaotlon, even in the remembrance of temporary defeat, is ovldenoud by the fata that among thoso who ought to rejoice In success there Is quite a general Acntimeut that the least said of It the bet ter." •'The Democratic party is willing to trust tho ordinary intelligence of our pboplo for an un derstacidlng of Its principles. Never was more intelligent, honest hml effective effort made in a noble cause than that made by the Demooratle party. We have put before the people platn and honest exposition* of the justice and bencflccnco of our prlncl pie. This has been done by the sys tematlc and industrious distribution of tariff reform literature, the effective and coosclen tlous arguments of a welt-luforincd and unsubsidlzed press, and by an enteusive discussion on the platform o! tho Question Involved. It Is a cause of congratulation that our work has been done in a maimer so dec* ut, and in its best sense so purely Amecicau. "^etus uolfall to realize tho fact that our work Is not done. Our enemies are still allvo and have grown degpernte. Tinman selfishness Is not easily overcome and the hope of private gain at the expense of the masses of our people is not yet abandoned. It would bo shameful and a pitiable disgrace if hy overconfidQnce we should lose the ground have gained, or if we should fall to push further our advantage Tho result of our labor thus far Is, Indeed, 'a single tribute to the judgmcntof the American people.' In full faith ID this judgment our work should continue upon the lines thus far followed until the cnomleB of tarifl reform aredrlvcn from their last intrenchment. As tbo people bavo trusted us, let us, above all things, be true to them. Lot the light of our campaign bo carricd into every, part of the land where it b«s not been seen, and where It has been kindled lot it be kept brightly buralnf,

WASHINGTON. DIV.. -.'4.—The President has relieved the su^penstMif the country and contradieted a srivat many stories that have been (jvnerally believed by sending to Ihe Senate the noiuinatiou of Judge Henry Krown. of Michigan, as Associate .lusiice ol the Supreme Court.. It may IK* said now that the President has never hml any idea of a|pointing Atiorney-iieneral Miller to the bench, nor has the io.- tinn been offered to henator Spinier. Ili preference has been for Judge Krown from the beginning, and Iu* would have been nominated long ago but for the fact that tl«i city of Detroit presented the names of two distinguished lawyers for this position, the oilier being Alfred Russell, the local attorney for the Wabash road at Detroit, who had the benefit of such strong support as Secretary Noble, Chauncc.v M. Depewand George M. Pullman. The Michigan delegation wps not united on either of these candidates, Senator .StocUiiridge and most of the Congressmen being strong for •Judge Krown, while Senator McMillan and others leaned toward Kussell bnt the President intimated recently that if he chose any Michigan man it would be Judge Brown.
