THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION
Some half a dozen disconsolate looking
individuals have been observed on onr
streets the past few days, who upon in
quiry VIC learned to be delegates to a
"Dcmocr'tic Convention, which proposes
to set upa candidate for the Dclegateship
and run him for the "grandeur" Of the
thing. This is probably the reason so few
delegates have assembled. The most
economical way is TO send proxies, and
each delegate who has come, therefore,
carries from two to thirteen votes in his
pocket. They have laborcd like the noun
tain since Wednesday last, and if they have
brought fourth even " mouse " we have
not seen il. They meet again to-day.
Hurry up, gentlemen any body will do for
strav man.

The Difficulty about Davis.

The N. Y. Times pleads that the main diff
fculty in Davis case..arises out of the act of
congress which provides that person ac-
oused of crime shall be tried only in the dis
trict within which the crime was committed.
1t urges congress to change the law, so as to
provide for certain cases-for districts, for
example. under martial law, where an i'm
partial jury cannot be found
Does not the Times, asks the Albany Ar
gus, mistake provision of the constitution
for an act of congress? Art. vi of the
amendment to that instrument provides:
In all criminal prosecutions the accused shall
enjoy the right of speedy and public trial. by an
impartial jury OF tie state and district antere tie
crime shall hare been committed, achich district
shall haze been previously ascertained By iaac.
1t will be difficult to do away with this
provision by an act of congress.
A Correspondent of the Boston, Journal,
tells of remarkable robbery in New York.
He says:
"The broker was inside the counter, near the
safe. A man came in without hat, and with a
pen behind his ear. He walked around to the
spot where the banker stood, who was talking
with gentleman, and said to him, Please to
move sir and the banker did. The fellow cool
ly took GU. of the safe several thousand U. S.
bonds, and coolly walked away, and has never
been seen from that time to this Near the clos
ing hours of business the bonds were sought for
and could not be found. The banker turned to
one of the clerks and asked him for them, stating
that he him remove them FROM the drawer
Fortunately the clerk able to prove an alibi
and then the audacity of the thief made ap-
parent"

The New York Tribune saws

1--WE never saw St. Louis. have no special
interest in it, and few friends residing there !;
but we wish to record our conviction-with
great respect for Cincinnati, Pittsburgh and
Chicago which we hare seen-that St. Louis
is destined TO have henceforth the most rapid
growth of any American city, and to be rec
ognized as the chief inland emporium of our
country within the next twenty years. We
believe the census of 1900 will rank the lief
cities of the United States in this order: /,
New York; 2. Philadelphia 3, st. Louis f;
4. Chicago; 5. Cincinnati e. San Francis
co; T. Baltimore 8. Boston; Q. Pittsburgh {;
