70 the Democratic nominee nominated the
present distinguished Speaker of the
American House of Commons, John G.
Carlisle. In all the essential characteristics
of manliness, courage, ability and patriot.
ism, Mr.. Carlisle was the peer Of any great
name that had been or would be mentioned
in connection with the Office Of the Presi.
dency No name carried with it more of
a tastesmanic charm or more Of the respect
Of the American people than his.
He was man not born for the
smaller or selfish things; he was man to
whom dishonor was unknown. DE was one
made up of greatness, who had victorious
birthright in his name alone. II might be
urged that he came from the wrong side OF
the Ohio river, but if the statute OF limita-
ton was ever to run that plea ought to be
cir now. GCheers He contrasted Carlisle
and Blaine The first as being. man on
whom even God had seemed to set his seal
The other as leprous with accusation and
covered and tattooed all over. Applause.

why Is Ii So?

Citizens living "around the hill and out
the pike, and especially those having teams
or carriages, are loud in their complaints
against the Board of Public Works for their
action in closing Fifteenth street to con-
veyances along the square just west of Nc
Culloch street. Heavily loaded teams and
vehicles of every description are either com-
PEELED to go over the steep grade on Four
teenth Street or else encounter the danger
from trains over the Hemp6eld and Motor
lines at the intersection of McCulloch and
Sixteenth street. The right of way for the ex-
tension of Fifteenth street was obtained by
the city at considerable expense, and East
Wheeling citizens think the thoroughfare
should be put to some use. A very moder-
ate sum, it is alleged, would properly drain
the street and put it in condition for
travel, and they respectfully ask that some
action be taken in the matter.

Mr.. Lockwood spoke as follows: 1t is
with no ordinary feeling of responsibility
that appear before this convention for the
purpose Of placing in nomination a gende-
man from the State Of New York as can
didate for President OF ,nna United States.
This responsibility is made greater when I
rertiember that pages Of American hist u :
have Sesn made up from the records or
Democratic administration. This RESPONSE
bility is made still greater when remember
that outrage on American people which
was committed in 1876, and which outrage
is still unavens ed, ard this responsibility IS
not lessened when / recall the fact that the
