Blaine and Logan.

The Republicans of the United States
of America in Convention assembled
in Chicago,o on Friday June 9Th, nomi-
mated as their candidate for President.
James G. Blaine of Maine, and for
Vice-President, John A. Logan, of
Illinois.
Never, since the days of Henry Clay
has there been such popular uprising
for any man, as that which has charact-
erIzed the Republican party in the
unanimous choice of that able
and tried statesman, James G.. Blaine,
to be its standard bearer in 1884.
Before three National Conventions
has his name been presented rs u cand-
idate for the presidential nomination,
and twice has the people choice been
inently mentioned to the Convention
been chosen: but this year it is the

1880, rs well as in 1876, many believed
Mr.. Blaine should have been nominated,
that it would have been better for the
country as well rs for the the party had
he been chosen president But in both
cases the party nominated men of large
calihcr, possessing great character and
ability and it difficult to see wherein
the party is not stronger to-day for its
choice in those contests. and the adminis-
trations of those men. 1t is impossible
to predict the character of the adj
ministration Garfield would have given
the country had he lived, but suffice
to say, il would have been vigorous
one. and although Mr.. Arthur has
been honest, able, conservative and has
favorably disappointed his most san
ouine friends in making one of the
best peace executives the country ever
had, and has alone made the success
of the Republican party possible this
year, the fact that ut the close of the
term to which Garfield was elected

$3.50 P. M-All the approaches from the
jStrand to the embankment are thronged
with thousands from all parts of the coun-
try and cover the embankment. The best
OF order prevails. No attempt is made to
interfere with the procession. The Prince
and Princess of Wales will witness the pro-
cession from Whitehall at P. NJ. At noon
the Organized Trades Union assembled at
Sloan Square, Paddington Green, Euston
Square. Islington Green, Clerkenwell Green
Finsbury Circus, the Obelisk, Blackfriars in
Grosvenor Gardens, and proceeded TO the
embankment. The political delegates wore
colors. The streets and bridges across the
Thames were packed and traffic was greatly
impeded.
The procession moved in the following
order: Mounted farriers, agricultural la
borers, provincial Populations, London
Trades Council, representatives from print
ing, bookbinding, paper, iron, metal, cloth
| ing, leather, shipping, building, cabinet
| making, fancy goods and general trades,
| political clubs liberal associations, temper
ance bodies and friendly societies. Each
| section. on arriving at the park, marched
| to the platform assigned to it, and the band
| played until the Chairman arrived.
| As the procession started from the EN-
bankment several loud explosions were
heard near Government ofnceS- Inc crowd
was greatly frightened. Thousands made
rush towards Whitehall, believing the
| explosions due to dynamite. The scare
ended when it was found the explosions
were nothing more than a salute which the
Horse Guards were firing in honor of the
birth of the Duchess of Albany's son. A
resolution was prepared against the rejec-
ton of the franchise bill by an irrespo.--
sible and unrepresentative House of Lords,
expresses the approval of Gladstones cleo
ton, and declares the continued existence
of the unchecked power of impeding the
popular will which the Lords exercise is
not conducive to the welfare of the people
and the peace and prosperity of the country.
