The late Vice President Hendricks died
with "A very poor opinion of the present ad-
ministration and that opinion was shared
by a large majority of other Indiana Dem
ocrats. But things have changed since Mr.
Hendricks's death. Mr. Cleveland is now
thoroughly subservient to the spols views
Of the Indiana Democrats, who in turn ac-
cept Cleveland's free trade theories Their
platform demands that all the federal of
fees be given to those 'who would harmon

Some Of the Survivors.
Chicago letter. June IA

Ohlcago letter, June IA.
Political mortality is something
frightful to contemplate. Eight
years ago this month the national
Republican convention met in Chi
cago and after memorable struggle
nominated Garfield and Arthur. Of
the 756 delegates who sat in that
convention only fifty-five are dele
gates to the convention of 1888.
The temporary and permanent
chairman of 1880 was George F.
Hoar of Massachusetts. Senotor
Hoar was at the head of the Bay
State delegation four years ago, and
he holds the same position now. 1t
Is the unwritten law of politics that
Senator Roar shall be sent at the
head of the delegation from Massa-
ehusstts as long as he chooses to
accept the Office.
The great nominating speeches in
that convention were made by Jas.
+. Joy OF Michigan for Blaine, Ros-
coe Conkling for General Grant,
James A. Garfield for Mr.. Sherman,
Frederick Billings of Vermont pre-
ssnted Senator Edmunds, j. b. Cas-
sody OF Wisconsin spoke for Eliha
B. Washburne, E. F. Drake launched
the hopes of William Window of
Minnesota Other orators will have
to do the sponsor work for the con
vention of 1888.
Both the nominees cf 80 are dead
Garfield and Arthur.
OF the candidates voted for on the
first ballot Grant and Washburne are
dead Blaine, Sherman, Edmunds
and Window survive.
The name of only one of these
is before this convention
John Sherman.
Six names were presented in 1880
for the vice presidency. They were
Chester A. Arthur, Elihu B. Wash |
burne, Marshal Jewell, Horace May
nard, Edmund j. Davis and Thomas
Settle. Not one of these will be be-
tore the convention of 1888.
