thing in the world that concerns and
annoys the Republican heart above
all others, it is to see any little trick
cry in a Democratic convention.
They can overlook it in their own
camp, but never in the Democracy.
Really, they are making an unnecessa-
ry amount of noise about Mr.. Booklet
walter; the Democrats have no idea
of electing him. They are merely
running the usual side show for fun,
and should not be interiered with.
There was a little danger a year or SO
ago that they might be troublesome,
but the administration and the ma
tional Republican committee sent
down some speakers and a few barrels
and soon had things fixed to suit
themselves. The Democrats of Ohio
are not likely to give any such trouble
this year. They are merely having
their usual annual celebration.
