Special 10 the Register.
PARKERsBrRG, May 22.-The Green
hackers of this city held meeting tonight
to ratify the result of the BuckhaunOn con-
vention. Col. Fogg, of Michigan,
was the principal speaker. We
dwelt mainly on national topics.
The speech was somewhat rampant in its
denunciation of capital and banks. The
speaker refused to speak definitely of the
Buckhannon Convention, saying he would
say what he thought on the subject through
the columns of his newspaper. There was
very little enthusiasm in the meeting, and
all references to fusion fell fiat

Her husband and the woman Winnie dis

TuR Democratic party is rightly pun
ished for its lack of nerve in dealing
with John Kelly. Just now there is
what almost approaches a unanimity of
sentiment in demanding the nomination
of Governor Grover Cleveland as the
Democratic candidate for President.
State Convention after State Convention
has proclaimed for him. He is conceded
to have the majority Of the delegation
from his own State. After Mr.. Tilden's
declination he seems to be the most
obvious and desirable candidate of the
party. 1t is at this stage that Mr.. John
Kelly opens his mouth and interposes
an ominous veto to the candidacy Of one
Of the most available men in his party.
His opposition is OF course dead against
the advancement of the man who is quite
evidently the favorite son of New York.
Why should John Kelly have to-day, in
view of his numerous treasons to the
Democratic party, the most open but not
the most infamous of which was the de-
feat of Lucius Robinson for Governor of
New York, to compass which he ran
upon an independent Democratic ticket,
any voice in the councils of the Demo.
cratic party. We should like to see
such illustrious Democrats as Hon. 5. 5.
Cox answer this question. They have
stood by Kelly Notwithstanding their
knowledge that, twice at least, he made
success impossible for their party. Had
Kelly, after his treason to Robinson,
been read out of the party and been kept
out of it, Democrats would not now be
asking themselves whether or no he
meditated new treacheries. His power
for harm to the Democratic organization
would have ended then and there.

THE editor of the HERALD has re-
ceived letter from close observer
and a Democrat, dated in New York
city. The writer assures us that the
opposition to Blaine and Logan, in the
Empire State. is solid, veritable and on

engineering the opposition to the Re-
publican candidates in the ranks of the
Republican party are in dead earnest
and have compact and intelligent
following. lie assures us that there is
no possibility of Blaines carrying New
York. This is in line with the opinions
steadily advanced by the HERALD. We
have from the start believed that as
goes New York 30 goes the Union.
The Empire State decided the contest in
1880 and will do no in 1884. aud with
the same emphasis now rs then. The
Republican press is coolly assuming that
Blaine and Logan will carry the Pacific
Coast; and, notably, California. AS to
our own State, all the aualogies of
politics justify us in believing that the
Golden State will give phenomenal
majority for the Democratic ticket

lT is intimated through our Eastern
dispatch that ex-senator Thurman will
p obably be chosen to preside over the
Democratic National Convention. This
would he a deserved recognition of the
worth and ability of this illustrious
Democrat. A parallel suggests itself to
our recollection which, were it carried
out to the extreme, would please us
even more, as it would about all of our
readers, Most of them remember that
Horatio Seymour was chosen President
of the Democratic National Convention
which met in the city of New York in
July Of 1868, and that the same Horatio
Seymour became the Democratic candi-
date for President. All loyal California
Democrats would hail with acclaim a
similar distinction accorded to Judge
Thurman, rs it would enable us to sweep
away the principally alleged aud facti.
tious popularity of Blaine in this State

IL there is one man more than Blaine
open to criticism on his public career it
is John A. Logan. What between the
comfy Of the Senate and his own bull
dozing methods. on the last occasion on
which Logan's loyalty at the beginning
of the war was called in question, Black
Jack was permitted to get of with a
whole skin. That episode in the Senate,
however, cannot blot out the other epi.
sode on the stump in Illinois, when
"Dirty Work" was telling how his devo-
tion to the stars and stripes had never
faltered for moment. His sister got
up in the body of the audience and sup
plemented this Munchausenism by the
emphatic declaration, - Ohm Logan, you
lie" 1t was this same candidate of the
"God and Morality" party who was the
author OF the famous "Black Law, :"
passed by the Illinois Legis.
lature in 1888. OF all the pro
scriptive, pro slavery enactments
passed in the long struggle be.
tween freedom and serfdom since the
Federal Constitution OF l7s7 was adopt.
ed, this was the most violent and indie.
fensible. The Fugitive slave law was
a mild enactment in comparison. Lo.
gan's bill ran as follows:
SIC. ). "If any negro or mulatto, bond
or free, shall hereafter come into this
State and remain ten days with the svi.
dent intention Of residing in the same,
every such negro or mulatto shall be
deemed guilty OF high misdemesnor, and
for the first oiiense shall be fined the
sun of $50 to be recovered before any
Justice Of the Peace, in the county whei .
said negro or mulatto can be found.
Said proceedings shall be in the name of
the people of the State OF Illinois, and
shall be tried by jury of twelve men. 4"
Surely, in view of such an enactment,
no advocate of the Higher Law" of the
Republican party can fail to step up to
the polls and vote for Blaine aud Loganl
