days and have heard nothing but that Gov

Governor Hendricks had left in the msrn- |

But in the morning failed to find them.
The truth is they are two pig-headed men
trying to come to compromise. The
west say to Hendricks, "Stick," and the
east say to Tilden, "Be firm," and there
they are. We propose to support men
who know where they stand. There is
now said to be movement to prove that
Allen, Ewing and Hendricks are and al
ways have been hard money men and
biography of Hendricks coming out in
which collects his uti erances on the finan-
cial question, showing that he has made 40
many hard as soft speeches, and that,
therefore, he is hard money man. The
Bible tells of judial blindness for which its
victims were damned. This is what is the
matter with the democrats, and the people
Will damn them. (Applaube.)
We believe that the great and needed re-
forms in the civil service, the honor of the
country and the good name of the govern

Wheeler, great applause and there we
propose to place it.

In commencing he said he did not ex.

explain his action as a delegate to the ma

into that body desiring to represent the
