Governor Hamilton, of Illinois, in a
recent interview, in speaking about the
success Chicago has achieved in secur-
ing the National Republican Conven-
ton, said the selection would. in his
opinion, bring out Logan as a strong
and prominent candidate for the Presi-
dency. There certainly was no organ
lied effort yet made in this direction, he
said, but it was clearly to be seen Lo-
gan boom had begun to spring up,
not only in Illinois, but other sections
of the West. Logan beyond all doubt
was the strongest and most popular man
in the state, and Illinois now seemed to
be inclined to take advantage of what
seemed to be the brilliant prospects OF
the Senator and unite upon him as the
most available candidate.
