straightforward manner, but under che
pretense that Tilden was to be the
nominee of the party, and the manipu-
lations were carried on ostensibly in
behalf of ''the old ticket" That lulled
suspicion and the anti-C Cleveland senti-
ment was prevented from becoming
aggressive. When at the convention
the scheme could no longer be wholly
hid, another trick was played. Instead
of instructing the delegates for any
one it was resolved that the unit
rule should be enforced and the
votes of the entire delegation cast
for whatever candidate the mdjority OF
the delegation should decide. Then the
bosses Of the machine went TO work to
secure majority of the delegation for
Cleveland and thus gag the remainder.
This was done, One more step remained
to be taken and by sharp practice this
was also successful. The convention
decided to sustain the unit rule and
place it in The power Of q bare majority
of the New York delegation to not only
disfranchise the minority but also cast
the votes of the minority for the very
man they were anxious to defeat. In
this way, and in this way only, Grover
Cleveland came to be the nominee Of
the Democratic convention. By trick
ery, by tho relentless use of the ma
chine, by ruthless application of the
gag, by the open fraud Of counting
votes for him that were in reality cast
against him, Cleveland has been nomi-
mated and the old and tried leaders Of
the party compelled to take back seats
or 90 out into the wilderness TO vent
their feelings.
The nomination was made partly in
tho expectation of catching the "lnde-
pendent" vote, Cleveland being the one
candidate acceptable to this vote what
ever there may be oft. But if the man
suits the independents" he has been
nominated through the agencies they
have the most bitterly denounced.
They can not accept the candidate with
out countenancing the very things they
have declared utterly obnoxious TO
them, and thus exposing their inconsis-
tency and lack of principle. To large
clement of the Democratic party the
man himself is highly objectionable.

The Nomination Of Cleveland.

The conspiracy has succeeded. BY
the use of every method Objectionable
in politics Grover Cleveland has secured
the Democratic nomination TO the Presi-
dency, or rather it has been secured for
him. No one in his own party credits
him with sufficient political ability TO
concoct or carry out the scheme which
has given him the party prize. He has
been a mere puppet in the hands of the
most skillful managers Of the Demo-
cratic machine in New York, and were
IL possible for him TO be elected he
would throughout his Presidency be a
puppet in the hands of the party man
ayers.
Had he been left TO his own merits
and his popularity with the masses of
his party, Mr.. Cleveland would scarcely
have had q representation In the con-
vention of his State He was elected
Governor by phenomenal majority,
not on account Of his personal populari-
ty, but because of the dissatisfaction Of
the Republicans with the manner in
which their own ticket had been made,
and because nothing was really known
about him, except THAI he was said to
have made good mayor of Buffalo.
But since his election Mr.. Cleveland had
become better known. His popularity
with the masses had not increased with
this better knowledge. The political
bosses, however, discovered that he was
not so much Of reformer as had been
pretended, and that by judicious man
agement he could be made useful. The
glittering prize of the Presidential NOM
ination was held before his eyes and he
was easily led TO do what the managers
wished. II is not necessary TO 20
beyond the declarations Of the New
York Democrats and Democratic papers
30 see how readily he abandoned the
role of reformer and became the tool OF
rings, cliques and monopolies, at the
bidding of the men who promised in
return to give him the Presidential
nomination. j,-.a a.J

fall into line with a rousing vote for
Wilson and Bechtel.
