GIVE Us NEW o

GIVE Us NEW BLOOD.
Give u, something that has come to man
hood and position since the war, that we
may hear 10 more about what took place
at, before and during the war. Every
breeze brings us what would seem to be
indications of victory. but we cannot ac-
~complish victory without recruits. These
recruits are at our bidding. Young, mid
die aged and old you sec them. Applause.
In platoons and regiments, brigades and
divisions. Applause, and calls of order
from the Chair. Everyone of them
bears upon its banner first, Cleveland, of
New York, Applause and loud yells
from the galleries. Let the countersign
of the great Democratic camp in Novem-
Der be Cleveland" and then men can
make their way to it. Applause. And
recruited as we shall be, our ides of No
vember will not be 4 Waterloo but a
glorious sun Of Austerlitz, and Wisconsin,
my own adopted State" I say to you,
gives us every reason TO believe that she
will find herself once more in the Demo
cratic column and her eleven electoral
votes will be cast for the nominee of this
convention. For that reason, on behalf
of the majority representing her state, I
second that nomination. Applause.
Henry 0. Kent, of New Hampshire,
also seconded the nomination of Mr..
Cleveland. He said that New Hampshire
was to-day one of the doubtful states, the
Democrats being only in It minority of
5000, and he believed that with the right
candidate that state might be turned over
to the Democracy. Success was a duty.
The record of james G. Blaine boded no
good to the Republic, should he be made
President. They might almost tremble
for constitutional liberty. He, therefore,
in behalf of New Hampshire and in be
half, largely, he believed, of New Eng
land, seconded the nomination ofthe man
who had been tried and found worthy and
who would rally to his support, more fully
than any other man, the Independents O.
the country who desire reform in politics
In contribution of the assertion that
Governor Cleveland could not carry hi
own state, he cited the authority of ex
Senator Herman, of New York, Of Hora
ito Seymour and Samuel J, Tilden
rCheers.
Ex-senator Doolittle, Of Wisconsin, ais,
seconded the nomination of Mr.. Cleve
land, declaring his belief that with thai
candidate the Democracy would carry tn,
electoral vote of Wisconsin, and that h
would more surely than any other candi
date carry the electoral vote ofNcw York
he therefor appealed to the convention
not to throw away this great opportunity
because with Cleveland and reform tn
Democracy was sure ofvictory at the CON
ing election.
The call of states being completed tn
chairman stated that in his opinion tn
territories were entitled to be called and
list Of candidates would be read.
Before this was done, however, Cor
J n]ecticut claimed to be heard, and NJ
Waller said that the Connecticut deleg,
ton had come here with no candidate c
! their own and with opposition to non,
f not even to Tummany Hall. They joine
