THuRMAN'S RECEPTION.
An Ovation rendered Him by Citizens
On His Arrival Home from Chicago.

CoLUMBUs, july Is
No demonstration over the demObratic
nominations at Chicago was made here until
Judge Thurman arrived nome last night
when he was met al the depot by several
thousand persons with a brass band and a
liberal display of banners. There was st the
same grand display Of fireworks all over
the city. Carriages were waiting for him.
and the party decorated with hags. behind
these people fell in line. most OF them bear
ing red handkerehefs. Along the line of
march was one continuous roar, enthusiastic
demonstrations and and a brilliant display of
fireworks. On the arrival OF the procession
at the ex-senator's residence, he rose in his
carriage and said
My friends and neighhors-I should not
be human, would have no heart in nv bosom
if | were not deeply touched BY the expression
of your kindness and regards knew that
you were my friends that YOU would greet
me and take me by the hand on my return !;
but that you should show such a marked
demonstration is beyond all expectation for
one who is not and never expects 10 be any
thing but private citizen. Ii is indeed more
than could have been anticipated. Therefore
| express 10 you most sincerely my
gratitude This pays for any disap-
pointment YOU may think feel. but
let me tell you sincerely, am not disap-
pointed or a sorehesded man. | have met
with reverses In the past, but tried 10 keep a
level head. | am happier in the midst of this
rejoicing of my friends than if | had received
the nomination for the presidency. Your
nominations were fairly made. Ii is impos-
sible TO CRAFTY all in such matters. There
will always be those who are disappointed
because of failure 20 nominate their friends,
but there should be none at the present time.
The convention was the grandest ever held
On earth, and the nominations were made by
such large msjorities and amid such enthusi-
asm as to inspire confidence. Let us go
to work and redeem this country from the
iron will under which it has fallen The
people are tired of the present power. and
with patriotic motives and earnest work we
vii! live to see the country in the hands of
party of reform which was once small but
which is now party of people from one end
of the land to the other. Pointing to his old
home, beside which his carriage stood, he
said-l am particularly ANXIOUS now to get
into that house and see an old lady who is
waiting for me.
just as Thurman closed a cry was set up
all along the line Of Thank you," and the
cheers was continued for some time after the
door closed.

BUTLER AND CLEVELAND.
The Anti- -Monopolists Cannot support
Cleveland.

NEW YORK, July IL. =
John f. Henry, President of the National
anti-mouopaly organization. said today, 81
have not heard from Butler since Cleveland
was nominated. but from what he said to me
before going to Chicago, | am confident he
will not support Cleveland. He cannot do it.
He has formally accepted a nomination Of the
anti monopolists, and he telegrsphed me from
Chicago Thursday saying he never would
consent to the nomination of monopolist.
That Cleveland is monopolist, is proven
by his acts. He appointed railroad and canal
commissioners in the interests of railroads,
the canal commissioner being a New York
Central man, and his veto of the FIVE cent
fare bill, and ~ hour bill for horse car
drivers and conductors are of the same parcel.
Gen. Butler and all anti-monOpolists and
working men are against Cleveland. The
democratic party has stultifed itself. For
years they have been protesting anti monop-
oily beliefs in their platforms, and nov they
take frst-class monOpolist as their leader.
There will be majority of $4,000 against
Cleveland in this State.
