MILWAUKEE, Wls., Utt. 4.-Thc Democratic
Convention has ended its aabors and put ts
nominees before the people. Taking tho ticket
altogether 1t cannot be said 10 he strong one,
unless II Is contcnlcd tiat men Will
rim we'll because they nro negative In
quality, and nFe unknown to the people
at large. Take the candidate for Governor, AIR.
Mallory, for MI example. Tn the tniormat
ballot he only received a1 votes out of oGb, Of
which the Convention was composed. Ills vote
was more than doubled BY that which Fruit,
Davis, ntd Parker received, an4l WIS almost
cqualcs br TINT cast for II. ~ Smith, r ho was nut
seriously thought OF by anybody a. candidate.
This Is certainly evidence enough to show that
only very tmall fraction Of the delegates vcrc
hankering after Judge sta'lory. That they
readily turned to him rs a compromise candi-
date cannot be set down to their wisdom
or rs proof Of his popularity. That he
was simply available. Is about nil
that can tr1lthful1y ho said In hi.
fasor. lie was, at,i Is, and must ever rcma!r,
positively Objectionable to all the hari-snoney
men In the party. A man who can Justly claim
TO bc n popular candidate has some prominence
given hin, by Ills friends before ha,rl; but, ex-
trpt the daily 71n.es Of this city, do not reeo.
