MILWAUKEE, July 12.-The nomination
OF Cleveland and Hendricks is warmly re-
celved by the Democrats and Independents
OF Milwaukee. The ticket is looked upon
as winner by many conservative Demo
Gratis who have heretofore, except in the fall
OF 1876, voted without much hope of success.
Cleveand's remarkably rapid rise from OBJ
security is.accepted as the result of inspira-
ton, and his repeated successes, an earnest
OF still greater victory in the coming presi-
Dental race. The prestige that cllngs to
the name of man who carried the great
state OF New York by nearly 5000 is NO
mean element of success. 1t is a standing
beacon of encouragement to which faint
hearted voters may be directed. Of Hend-
ricks nothing in the way of recommendation
should be necessary. He brings with him
the prestage of the great victory of 1875.
That resulted in the election of Samuel j.
1ilden for PRECEDENT, but the fruits OF
which were literally stolen by the thoroughly
i entrenched army of corrupt Republican
office holders who had not the honor to man
fully surrender what they had fairly
and deservedly lost. Retribution is very
often delayed, but it is none the less sure:
Though the mills of the Gods grind slowly,
yet they grind exceedingly small" A few
weak-kneed Democrats pretend to see Tam
many's tomahawk uplifted for murderous
/ blow in November They also cor ure OPP
position on account of Cleveland's vetoe of
the eight-hour and five cent car fare bills,
and bill appropriating money to religious
charitable institutions in New York. But
the great majority of Wisconsin Democrats
are true. They have stood up under defeat
time and again, and are not capable of deser-
ton now. Opinion in Milwaukee is
OVERWHELMINGLY FAVORABLE.
| Answers elected to an interviewing re-
porter give. the tone of the good feeling.
| Capt Schoeffel, of the Light Horse Squadron
says; ''It suits me to death. Anything to
slap Tammany. The young Democrats
of the west will be unit
for Cleveland" Ex-Mayor O'Neil is pleased
with the ticket. Alexander Mitchell is more
than pleased. He says: ''Mr. Cleveland
believe to be a good, safe man. and he will
|
found that a very strong feeling for Cleve-
land existed among the leading men of that
city, and they will give him hearty sup
port" Mr.. Mitchell is of the opinion that
Tammany will wheel into line. John John
ston is enthusiastic for Cleveland. A. L..
Cary says: II like the nomination, and if
Cleveland lives till March 4, 1885, he will be
| 10 ,f.xyf Ja,,f T 4 (fntt ie
pleased, SO is Judge Small, who says the
ticket will win. Republicans pretend to be
pleased, but their mask of deception is not
very thick. 1t is amusing to hear Republi-
cans who several weeks ago shook their
heads and predicted hard fight should
Cleveland be nominated, now say the New
York governor is the weakest candidate the
Democrats could have selected. The Mil
waukee Cleveland club came home triumph
antly last evening. They were welcomed
by enthusiastic Democrats with two bands.
| CoIored lights were burned and rockets sent
up along the route. Arrangements will i'm
mediatcly be made for ratification meeting
in this city.
