The convention did its work well. The
friends OF the beaten candidates. Of course,
feel little disappointed. The ticket and
the platform will give general satisfaction
TO the party. They will command the
support Of the Independents and the bolt
ing Republicans. Tammany is mad Of
course. but that is Tammany's chronic
condition. The convention quickly be.
came tired Of Tsmmany's antics, and
early showed that it would not submit to
the dictation Of John Kelly The
Tammany boss does not appear
to be able 70 understand
that a national convention is a very much
larger institution than the Tammany so
eietv. and that it cannot be handled by
TammanY's machine methods. Tammany

and work for the ticket, or it may cast Its
influence for Butler or Blaine, but if il
decides upon a scheme Of vengeance it Is
probable that it viii prove as impotent to
prevent Cleveland from carrying New
York as it was to prevent his nomination
Both parties having named their tickets,

The English Lords are getting up a
reputation in America. Lord Abercrom-
bic proved to be fraud, although he was
indorsed to the Coney Island Jockey Club
BY Lord Vaudeville. Now Lord Mande-
vile himself is under a cloud. He has
failed to pay his racing debts, amounting
to some S, 800, and a movement is on foot
to expel him from the club. Lord Mande-
vilIe's partner claims that he is very sick,
but the parties to whom he owed the
money are not satisfied with that expla-
nation of the matter.

RuTLER WANTS FREoUENT CHANGEs.
CoNvERsE's SUPPORT.
The Majority Platform Contains all that
Butler Asked for.

CHICAGO, July 11.-Mr. Converse, Of
Ohio, followed Gen. Butler in speech-mak.
ing on the tariff last night. He spoke in
favor of the adoption of the platform as
reported by the majority of the commit
tee.
He said that there was much in Buffers
platform to which all could subscribe. There
was much in his tariff plank to which all could
subscribe. There was much of that plank
embodied in the report of the committee. The
majority report was made by representatives
Of 81 states. The dissent was from but a
single State. The majority report was
harmOnizing of the differences in the entire
Union. and should receive the support of the
Democracy. In that platform the Knights of
Labor were fully recognized, but the great
central and over shadOwing idea Of the plat
form was reform in the government from de-
partment to department, and when that
should be done the party would be prepared
to take ND other and less important matters.
This was the concurrent judgment Of thirty
seven out Of thirty-eight States. The party
was sincere, earnest and determined in the
work Of reform, and whoever might be nomi
mated by this convention would be elected
President of the United States. Applause.

A convention Of one hundred amateur
journalists met Wednesday in Milwaukee,
almost in hearing Of Chicago. 1t is a
pity this convention met just when all the
editors Of the Union had their eyes and
ears fixed on the Democratic nomination
business. At any other time they might
have given some attention to the Mil
waukee convention and learned some
thing about journalism.

The Nominee for Vice President


The nomination Of Hon. Thomas A.
Hendricks for Vice President was doubt
less somewhat Of a surprise. Before the
meeting Of the convention he was not
regarded as a candidate for either Presi-
dent or Vice President. 1t was not
thought that be would accept the second
place unless Mr.. Tilden were the Presi-
Dental nominee. The very general i'm
preston was that Mcdonald would be
nominated for Vice President if an East
ern man we're nominated for President.
Hendricks, however, is perhaps as strong
a man as could have been Sc
lected for the second place. His
nomination proves that he is more
popular in Indiana than Mcdonald. If
any man can assist the Democrats in car
rying Indiana he can. He certainly can do
more IN that direction than did the nomi-
nee for Vice President in 1880. The fact
that he was a part Of the "old ticket
NAV have had something TO do with his
nomination, but not much. The smaller
part of the sold ticket will not con-
tribute a great deal towards giving life to
the fraud issue, and probably nobody eX-
poets that it will. Indiana is doubtful
State, and doubtless Mr.. Hendricks owes
his nomination TO the fact that the con-
vention believed that he could contribute
more towards carrying it than any other
Indiana man. He is an able MANN
many respects a great man. He strength
ems the ticket, and his nomination can
hardly fail to meet with general favor.
