A Strong Nomination.

No stronger nomination could have been made for governor of Illinois than that of Gen. John M Palmer. Converted from Republicanism by the course of affairs while he was governor of the state, he has ever since been consistent and zealous Democrat, conspicuous in the councils of his party and frequently named in con- nection with vice presidential nomina- tions. His gallantry and skill in war, no less than his signal public services in peace, put him in the foremost rank of public men of the country. In placing William R. Morrison at the head of the delegates for the state at large to the St. Louis convention, the Democrats of Illinois have paid fitting honor to the faithful and brilliant gentleman who so ably led the majority in the house of representatives of the Forty-ninth con- gross. Messrs. Goudy, Worthington and Ewing, who accompany Col. Morrison, arc Democrats of proved devotion, whose ad- vice has long had weight in the national councils of the party. It is certain that no better or more encouraging conclusion could have been reached at the Springfield convention than the wise choice that has been made for state officers, as we'll as national delegates and alternates and electors at large.-New York Star.

Tho Hand of Vengeance.

] The interpretation of the wonderful phenomenon observed ill the sky over northwestern Ohio at midnight is not diff fcult if the time and place of the pertent are considered.
 The most vivid description of the prodigy is that which comes from Find Jay, in Hancock county. To the affrighted inhabitants of -Findlay there appeared in the northern heavens giant hand, well formed, and as distinct IS if painted upon the black background of the sky. The index finger of this awful hand seemed to : be pointing directly at them, ''as if warn ing the people of some woe about to fall on Findlay." Hundreds of citizens, breathless with excitement, watched the impressive spectacle, Through the vast, shadowy hand waves of blood red light ''surged as regularly as heart beats in a human breast, and then fell off at the end of the fingers in drops of the same color. ? This lasted for an hour.
 The people of Findlay need feel no alarm. The omen is not for them. The bloody finger pointed not at them, but over their heads and far away.
 The hand appeared in the heavens directly over Sandusky county and the town of Fremont. A straight line drawn from Sandusky county through the town of Findlay will, if prolonged, strike the city of St. Louis, where the convention of the mighty Democracy of the United States meets in just two weeks time after the terrible apparition. In Fremont, directly beneath the blood dripping hand of vengeance, there covered and shivered trembling wretch, who, twelve years ago almost tosihe day, and at that very spot, first cof5eived the ambitious and avaricious hopes that were gratifed, few months later, by means of a crime match less in political history.
 He has been punished, and perhaps he has nothing further to fear. Butretribu- tion has not yet been dealt in sufficient volume upon the party of fraud. The chief criminals arc still boasting in public of their part in the crime of 1876. In the senate of the United States the Republi- can leaders who plotted and executed the overthrow of free suffrage in America still dare to defy the justice of God and man. and to challenge the fate that has been too merciful to them.
 The Republican party deserves to be beaten to destructionl
 That, in our opinion, is the interpreta- tion of the prodigious hand which ap- peared as sign in the skies of north western Ohio, right over the hiding place of Rutherford B. Hayes, it's threatening finger pointing to St. Louis.-New York Sun

Democratic Nominations,
THE SITUATION.

Never in the history of the democratic party was there such a cause for rejoicing. The candidate for president nominated by exclamation without a dissenting voice; the candidate for vice president nominated on the first ballot; the platform agreed to without contest of any kind, and that platform one that will bear up under any weight of argument that can be presented by the republican party. The main point of the democratic idea is contained in the opening phrase of the platform, and we ask our readers to carefully. read and study it. Here it is
 The democratic party of the United States in national convention assembled, renews the pledge of it's fidelity to democratic faith, and reafirms the platform adopted by it's representatives in the convention of 1884, and indorses the views pressed by President Cleveland in his last earnest message to congress the correct interpretation of that platform upon the question of tariff re- duction and also indorses the efforts of our democratic representatives in congress to secure reduction of excessive taxation.
 The platform indorses the message of President Cleveland, sent to congress last December. That message the republicans will never forget. It's originality and fear lessness fell upon them like thunderbolt. It advised a revision of the tariff laws, at the same time advising the utmost care test the American manufacturing interests should suffer. The unjust taxation upon the necessaries of life was treated and the reduction of duties upon raw material, or it's free importation advised. Upon plat form in harmony with this message the democratic party will achieve a victory. There is no free trade in the contest. The tariff issue is between republican system which imposes taxation for the benefit of the monopolists, compelling the people to pay taxes beyond the needs of gov ernment. and the democratic demand to cheapen this necessaries of life, and at the same time to protect American labor. On the glorious platform we take our stand to fight for Cleveland, Thurman and reform.

 THERE was tremendous excitement in the house of representatives yesterday when it was announced that Thurman had received the second place nomination. Members tied handkerchiefs to their um- brellas and canes and waved them fran tically over their heads. MT Outhwaite of Ohio drew forth a large bust picture of Thurman which he carried to the clerks desk, and braced it up against a pile of books in full view of the members. Then he gracefully draped the frame with silk bandana, at which the members howled more loudly than ever. The galleries took up the applause and waved bandanas in response to the uproar on the floor. Some enthusiastic Thurman men ill the press gallery flung their bandanas over the gilded eagle which rests above the speak CTS chair. While the confusion was greatest an old white-haired man on the democratic side was seen hastening down the aisle, his face flushed, and an expres- sion of intense excitement on his features. He held one hand aloft, and i'll hoarse voice, which could scarcely be heard above the uproar, he shouted: sI have worked for thirty years in California to see Thurman president, and now, thank
