HOW TIE NEWS WAS RECEIVED IN OTHER
STATES.

We can mention but few of the incidents
attending the circulation of the news of Blaine's
nomination as it was sent from east to west and
north to south. There was rejoicing every
where. San Francisco went wild over James
g. Baine's nomination, and business was com
pletey suspended. Professions with bands of
music paraded the streets. Banners were tlv-
ing. on which were inscribed ''Blaine and Vic
tory" steam whistles blowing and cannons
booming. In the evening there was an immense
ratification meeting at which the announcement
that Logan had been nominated for Vice Presi-
dent was greeted with tremendous cheering.
Cries of ',That's hard ticket to beat" were
heard on all sides. Before the meeting was
called to order, Il salute of 100 gums was fired
