The Nominations.

The Democratic party has selected

form /, has within its limits as its nom
nee for the Presidency. There are
other men older in politics, Of greater
service to tho party and of greater
ability; but in the essential elements
Of the mordern idea of reform Mr..
Cleveland excels prominently and
owes his elevation TO this fact. The
convention has selected the man most
acceptable to the Independents it has
given ear to the popular voice in the
Democratic party; it has succeeded in
placing against Mr. Blaine man who
in nature aud in act ia tho antipodes OF
the Republican nominee. Altogether,
the work of tho convention will be sat
isfactory to tho Democratic party
throughout the Union. Tho question
Of whether or not Mr.. Kelly and Gen
Butler will refuse to support tho
ticket will naturally create some ancx.
iety. II will DO always matter Of
dispute whether Mr.. Thurman or Mr..
Mcdonald OF Daygrd, each with his
vulnerable points, would have been
stronger than Mr.. Cleveland. These
questions were fully before the conven
tion and in the assembled wisdom Of
that body ticket, vilhot spot or
blemish is placed before the people,
not to please tho Democracy alone, but
to salty the clamor of all good citizens
for more purity in the conduct OF the
Government. The iickot ends ns 1t
