The Ticket.

| INDIANAPOLIS, June 26.-The Journal
says of the nomination: The nomina-
ton is a complete Vindication of the
wisdom and patriotism of the largest,
most earnest and most enthusiastic
convention ever held. The nomination
of Harrison and Morton is the happiest
solution that could possibly have been
made of the great political problem. If
it were not so clearly the result Of hu-
man wisdom, we should call it an in
spiration."
The Sentinel (Democra) says: Zen
eral Harrison's nomination is not in
any sense strong one. He is lacking
in most of the qualities which combine
TO make a great party leader and a
popular candidate before the people.
General Harrison cannot carry lndi-
| ana, and he cannot be elected. He is
| identified with the cause of monopoly,
and in this campaign monopoly is go
ing to be defeated"

! Gazette strongly endorses the nOmina-
! tim.

way, and dominated the result.
LOUISVILLE. June 26.-Henry Waiter
son, in the C0urier-JOurndL, says: The
democracy have escaped serious
danger. The strategy of the situation
was Harrison and Depew.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 90. - The
Chronicle: General Harrison has been
selected as Republican candidate, not
| by the State OF California, but by the
great Republican party. He now stands
the chosen representative OF the princi-
! pies Of Republication. and notably of
that grand principle of protection
which, as Blaine says, is intellectually
greater than any man; and it is the
duty and doubtless will be the pleasure
of every genuine Republican to give
him cheerful, earnest, hearty support. !"
The ALta (Democrat). There is at
present portent,ous and actual danger
III supporting Harrison in this State.
Republicans of this State have before
them an opportunity to show thar their
antl-Chinese zeal has not been pre-
tence. If they wish TO save their party
! IN California from absolute destruction
| let them reject Harrison and refuse to
pat an electoral ticket in the field.
| Upon the issue of silver coinage,
Harrison stands against every principle
and profession of his party in the
silver States, and his record is in
direct opposition to the national plat
form upon VIII CHI he was nominated"
The Post (Republican):" Harrison was
not the first choice of the voters of Cali
fornia. Gresham or Alger represents
tue attitude of the Coast far more
closely than Harrison, especially on the
Chinese question, and California would
have been far better satisfied had either
Of these been chosen; but Harrison
comes from a doubtful State, and it is
OF the highest Importance that the party
should carry it in November. 1t is
probable his supporters have given as
surances that his vote as Senator six
years ago does Lot represent his pres
ent attitude on the Chinese question,
and that he is sound on the silver ques-
IiOn."
The Examiner (DGmocratic): The
platform demands protection. Protec-
ton to what? To labor or capt al
That was the question that remained to
DE settled irrevocably by the nomina-
ton of Benjamin Harrison. We trust
We shall be spared any personal scan
dals in this campaign. There will, how
ever, certainly be no need of personal
ISLANDERS when there is such public
record as Harrison's to discuss. Cali
fornia has never has an opportunity to
show Enthusiastically her opinion of d
pro-Chinese candidate. This year we
shall have a square chance at one man
whom California Republicans, In 1882,
swore never to forget"
NEW YORK, June 26.-General Sher-
man says: Il think there could not be
more powerful ticket than Harrison
and Morton. Every man who fought
for the preservation of this government
should vote for these men. Harrison, |
think will be as strong as Blaine would
have been. OF course | would rather
my brother John had got it. but the
Republican party should be the judge
and select its own standard bearer"
PHILADELPHIA, June 26.-The Inquirer
says the government will be safe in Har-
rison's hands.
The Times says: "Altogether the
ticket is dull, respectable, unobjection-
able. No American endorses the ticket. "
SAYS: 1.-The country is to be congratu-
lated on the makeshitt nominee"
The Globe Democrat saws the ticket
will undoubtedly prove strong and pop
ular.
DETROIT, June 26.-At ratification
last night, General Alger was given an
enthusiastic reception and predicted
victory.
The excitement of yesterday caused
by the nomination of General Harrison
continued during the day with no
change of scene and incidents. The city
is disposed to appreciate the novelty
and honor of having Presidential can
didete in the highest degree, and to get
all the enjoyment possible out of it,
Hornblowing, which was hardly stopped
during the night, was resumed early
this morning and has continued all day.
The streets have been thronged with
people, most of them wearing Harrison
badges of some kind. In addition to
the city population, large mum bers came
in on the trains from the surrounding
towns to swell the crowd General Har-
rison was not at his Office during the
day and his house was visited By 8
large number of people. The autograph
