The Republicans have q Grand JOlhs

coded to be n winning T1eke6-What
ProRpinent Republicans Say.
The Republicans made lots of music last
night over the nomination of Harrison and
Morton az the Republican nominees for Presi-
dent and Vice President It was in striking
contrast with the apathy and total lack of
enthusiasm manifested thus far by the New
Haven Democrats. Every Republican who
had heart turned out and helped swell the
demonstration, and let the Democrats know
that there is no lethargy In the rank and file
of the Republican party
The bulletins were watched with eager in
terest yesterday in order to welcome the
nominations with the boom Of cannon. The
news of Harrison's nomination came sooner
than expected and was q surprise to many
who had conjectured il would be Blaine.
When the news came the Republican seni-
ment crystallized strongly for Harrison as .
wise nomination, and better one sitter al
than if it had been Blaine. Tor nomina-
ton was hailed with satisfactiQEg
There was great enthusiasm when the
news of the nomination WAS received. As
soon as the convention met in Chicago the
COURIER bulletin Was put out and it was be-
s1eged by crowds<of people until the conyen-
ton adjourned until evening. The COURIER
had out the first news of Harrison's nomina-
ton, sRd the news spread like wildhre
The general verdict seemed to be that the
Chicago delegates had done good thing.
The name of Harrison was on the lips Of
every Republican. There was no doubt In
their minds that the nomination sounded the
keynote of success.
Chairman Hugh Daley of the Republicans
town committee at once ordered that salute
of fifty guns be fred on the Green at seven
O'Clock. The booming of the guns sent the
news broadcast throughout the city that the
campaign had begun. The American band
was engaged and a stock of fireworks laid in
for a further demonstration little later at
the club rooms of the Republican league.
The windows and doors of the building were
thrown open, flags were unfurled and police
men were stationed in front to keep out all
but members and invited guests. The Young
Mems Republican club had been invited to
help the veterans in the demonstration and
they lost no time in turning out. The band,
under the efficient leadership of John Stack,
assemble in the front, and when the musi-
clans struck up tune and the flag bearing
the name of Benjamin Harrison was flung tc
\ the breeze there was a loud burst of enthus-
iasun. The street in front of the club rooms
was choked with people and the fence or
each side was packed with dense mass Of
humanity. twas difficult for carriage tc
get past.
The band played most of the time, and the
air was filed with sky-rockets, Roman candles
and other fireworks. When the band played

of the league Joined in by singing.

were the names of both President and Vice
President.
They surprised the veterans by the neat
ness and correctness of their badges. The
older Republicans took their younger off
spring under their wings and banqueted them
in right royal manner.
Every Republican that the COURIER re-
porter interviewed thought that Harrison
and Morton will carry Connecticut and will
be elected. Hugh Daley commended the
nominations as wise and good ones. Harri
son would carry all of the western and the
Pacific States. His voting in favor of the
Chinese bill would not hurt his prospects
The Pacific coast delegates voted for him

Ex-Governor Bigelow-We are going Il
