Nearly 10000 American people went

that number will rush over TO see the

The Candidates.

We have space and time for but the
briefest sketch Of the candidates put in
nomination yesterday by the Chicago con-
venton for president and vice president.
Gen. James A. Garfield, of Mentor,
Ohio, the republican candidate for presi-
dent was born in Orange, near Cleveland,
Ohio, Nov. 10, 1881. lie graduated at
Williams college, Mass, in 1856 and was
for some years a teacher. He is a lawyer.
In 1859-60 he was n member of the Ohio
Senate.
In 1861 he entered the army as colonel
of the forty-second Ohio infantry; was
made gadier-general in January. 1862,
and was for a time chief.ofstaf in the
army of the Cumberland and in Septem-
Der, 1868 was made major general. lie
was elected member of congress in 1862
and has been reelected to the present
time. Last winter he was chosen United
States Senator from Ohio for the term OF
six years beginning March, 4. 1881.
Gen. Garfield has been for some time
the leader of his party in the House of
representatives and is man Of acknowl-
edged ability.
Gen. Chester A. Arthur, the candidate
for vice president is a native of Vermont
and was for some years collector Of the
port of New York, proving an efficient
officer, this nomination will doubtless
strengthen the ticket in that state.
Altogether we think the result of the
Chicago convention is ticket that will be
strong at the polls, and one that will call
out the united efforts Of all wings of the
party for its success. 1t is so good a ticket
and so much better than what might have
been that we have no sort of inclination ia
mourn because it is not just what we would
have made ii had we had the making of it,

The pope has recently undergone sue
cessfully surgical operation of Il painful,
though not of dangerous character. He
is far from strong.
On the 10th of this month the agents of
the Singer sewing machine company are
to meet at Albany, n. Y, and have good
time at the expense of the company.
The Raleigh, N. c., Observer predicts
that the census will show greater per
cent increase of native population in North
Carolina than in any other state-in fact,
than in the whole of New England put
together.
Now, then, Mr.. Conkling, remember
the resolution you had passed last Friday
and don't give any West Virginia indie
pendent hereafter the chance of telling
you he is as good republican as you in
this campaign and that you have made
but one.
Previous national conventions of the
republican party have been as follows: At
Philadelphia, in June, 1856, when John c.
Fremont was nominated for president.
At Chicago in 1860, when Lincoln was
nominated at Baltimore in 1864. when
Lincoln was renominated at Chicago
again in 1868, when General Grant was
nominated; at Philadelphia in 1872
when General Grant was renominated; ;
and at Cincinnati in 1876 when Ruthcr-
ford B. Hayes was nominated.
The Cincinnati convention, four years
ago, met on the 18th of June and COM
menced balloting on the 10th. On the
first ballot Blaine led off with 2S5 votes.
Morton came next with 124 votes, while
Bristow had l13. Conkling had 80. Be-
sides these leading candidates there were
number of " dark horses" among them
Hayes, for whom 81 votes were cast on
the first ballot. Hartraft received SO votes,
the vote of Pennsylvania. Jewell had the
vote of his state, Connecticut, all but one;
and Wheeler and Washburne each received
few votes. On the seventh ballot Presi-
dent Hayes was nominated.

The following is the speech of Gen.
Garfield made Saturday evening in pre-
sentng John Sherman rs II candidate be
fore the conventions:
am happy TO present to you and to
name for your consideration Il man who
was the comrade, the associate, the friend
of nearly all those persons whose faces
look down upon us in this building to-
night; IL man whp began his career in the
politics of this country twenty-five years
ago, whose first service was done in the
days of peril on the plains of Kansas, when
the first red drop of that blood shower
began to fall, which increased into the
deluge of gore in the'rebellon. He stood
by Young Kansas then, and returning to
his seat in the national legislature through
all the subsequent years his pathway has
been marked by the laborS which he has
performed in every department of legisla-
ton. If you ask me for his monument.
point you to twenty-five years of the
national statutes. There is not one great
or beneticent statute on your books within
that time that has been placed there with
out his intelligent and powerful aid. He
was one of the men who formulated the
laws that raised our great armies and
naves and carried us through the war.
His hand was in the workmanship of the
statutes which brought back the unity and
present calm of these states. His hand was
in all that great legislation which created
the great war currency that carried us
through, and in the still greater work that
redeemed the promise of the government
and made it good (Applause.) At last
he passed from the halls of legislation into
Il high executive Office, and there he dis
