SAN Francisco, June 17.-In COM
menting on the nomination at Cincin-
natl, the Call this morning says: We
regard this as strong ticket. The nomi-
nation OF Hayes will consolidate the Re-
publican party. The country has heard
less OF him than OF Blaine, Morton, Bris-
tow or Conkling, but it has only heard
good. We don't know Of prominent
man with q more impregnable reputa-
ton"
The Chronicle remarks: " The ticket is
strong. One fact, which will be more
generally recognized than ii now is, 10
when the stress of the canvass begins to
be felt, the Republicans can now enter
upon the canvas carrying no weight and
free to wage aggressive warfare. Hayes
is in point Of availability, the wisest
choice that could have been made, with
the single exception Of Bristow."
The Alta thus comments: "1u COM
mon with the vast majority of Republi-
cans of this city, we feel o measure of
disappointment at the defeat Of Blaine
as candidate for the Presidency, but
that effect will pass away. The more
that is known of Governor Hayes and
his antecedents of all candidates be.
fore the Convention next to Blaine, Gov
srnor HAYES is the most popular. The
general sentiment. SO far as it has found
expression, seems to DO that Hayes ia
the second choice of most every one, and
his nomination will secure the united
support Of the party. The only sore.
heads, if any, will be found among the
federal brigade. Wheeler's nomination
gives general satifaction.
