ANTI GRANT.
Enthusiastic Meetings in Chi
cagO.

Chicago, 26-Despite poor manage
ment, the absence of good orators and
! threatening weather, the anti-Grant meet
| iUg at Central Music Hall, tonight, was
great success. Crowds thronget the
door long before the hour of meeting,
and not half of those who had tickets
could gain admission, so that an over
flowing meeting was held at Farweli
Hall. The attendance at the two meet
icgs was 5000 TO 5000. Lieutenant
Governor Shuman called the Music Hail
meeting to order, and Henry w. King
was made chairman. He made a neat
speech, and Kirk Halves, the orator of
the evening, explained how the ninety
anti Grant delegates from Cook
County were refused admission 10 the
state convention. The enthusiasm was
very great. HAYES was applauded most
heartily when he alluded 10 the certainty
of The case made by The contestants from
Illinois being pressed on the considera-
ton of the national convention; when he |
alluded to the futura overthrow of a |
corrupt machine, and when, while accord |
ing 10 Grant great fame as military |
chIeftsin, he declared him a failure as a !
presid, mt. He was followed by Colonel |
a. n. Waterman, Charles A. Gregory, |

man Rooster. An add ess was adopted |
stating the case of the Acknowledgement |
of Cook County, setting forth that trick
cry and fraud alone kept them from being
properly represented; that theft alone
gave Grant the forty-two delegates, and
announcing Logan il most positive terms.
The address also deplores the certainty of
defeat with the Grant campaign, and
states that thetwenty anti-Grant delegates
appointed by the congressional districts
will demand and must receive fair
hearing in the Chicago convention.
Applause frequently interrupted the read
ing. The audience was evidently of one
mind. The same was true of the Far
well Hall meeting where the same
speakers made addresses, and besides
them Gen. Hurlbut and Elliot Anthony.
General e. N. Bates presided. There
was no disturbance of any kind ct either
meeting, and the audiences were COM
posed largely of the middle classes and
business men. Two hundrdd vice-presi-
dents were named and selected, all
prominent in business and politics.

GRANTS STRENGTH.
His Strength Comes from Dem
Oeratic States.

New York, 27.-Tue Tribune prscsde.
q long political article with the follow.
| ing double leaded editorial: In the table,
which ara printed herewith, demonstra-
ton is made by figures which cannot be
contrOverted that General Grants sup
port for the presidency comes mainly from
democratic counties and states which
cannot give vSte to secure his election.
Republican counties in the states and re-
publican states in the Union are shown
to be sgainst his candidacy by over
whelming majorities. Fi-s', the three
great states, New York, Pennsylvania
and Illinois, constituting his sole north
ern strength, are taken up. In the fist
of these tae counties are divided as their
delegates stood on the test vote in the
Utica convent on. This division shows
that the counties which voted
against Grant in ;tructions cast, last year,
q republican plurality of 45, al, or 1854
grestsr than Governor Cornelrs total
plurality. In Pennsylvania the same
course is pursued with an equally en-
phatic result. The twenty-five republican
counties, which were against Grant at
Harrisburg. cast, IN 1879, over the
nine cen democratic counties, which
voted with them, ii ia of the II, $50
plurality, by which President Hayes
carried the state. The vote for Grant
came from nine republican aud sixteen
democratic counties, and represented a
republican plurality over the democrat
candidate of only 3,S4l. In Illinois again
q similar demonstration is reached. The
vote against Grant came from seven
teen republican and fifteen democratic
ruhfnt, in 1919 10 SFsA -
the 1850 plurality, wAich the state
Grant came from twenty-nine republic
can and thirty-four democratic coun-
ties, which gave, in 1876 a clear
republican plurality of only 1852. |
In each Of the three states it will be no.
ticed that the Grant support is largely |
drawn from democratic counties. Thus |
in New York there are s democratic |
to 10 republican and in Illinois 81 !
democratic to q republican, Passing
next 10 the country at large, the fact bs- |
comes even clearer, yet, that the third |
term support comes from states which !
can only nominate while the oppo-
sition comes from states which |
alone can elect. Putting New York in |
The democratic column where it was in |
rs, and putting Pennsylvania and Hi
nois where q msjority of their republican |
voters have be=r shown to stand in the |
republican column, Grants support, |
which represents sure electoral votes, en-
titles him to Colorado with three votes |
aud Colorado declares that she will be
as well pleased with Blaine as with |
Grant. This is an unanswerable demon
that if as suggested by q New
state republican convention, the
in the national republican
were based on the ratio of
republican votes, Grant would have no
standing in the Chicago convention,
hardly enough indeed, 10 have mis- name
appear amo0g the scattering" on the
roll call.

How Eew York was conk,.ngizsa

UTICA, Feb. 25,-When the convention
reassem bled, Chas. E. Smith was perma.
uent chairman The committee on Gre
deutlals reported that the sitting delegates
from the First assembly district of Oneida
county headed by ConkliDg are the regular
delegates. The committee on resolutions
reported and read as follows: The Re-

cipies Of the Republican party heretofore

violence and fraud. and in defiance of the
carefully constituted judicial authorities.
In presence of these grave and threaten
ing dangers it is the duty of the Republi-
can party to meet and prevent them, and
to this end, mindful of their great respon
sibility in the coming presidential contest,
and of the fact that it must be determined
by the electoral vote of their state, they
hereby solemnly pledge to the Republicans
of other states their ability to cast it for
Ulysses s. Grant. We declare that in
him we repose absolute trust for bis hon.

these reasons, and because we are satisfied
that in him the nation, north and south,
will decidedly greet candidate deserving
of its confidence. we present him as euti-
tied to the suffrage of every patriotic citi-
