Nominations.
Chicago.
CHICAGO, June 26.-The Tribune says:
ga diligent search into the annals of par
ties will fail to match the proceedings
which followed the nomination of Harri-
son, of Indiana, for President. Having
coerced the convention into nominating
Harrison, New York demanded also the
naming of the Vice President and with an
argument that completely confessed the
conscious weakness of the decision for
which it is chiefly responsible
An examination of the speech of
Senator Warner Miller will open the eyes
of Republicans. New York had demand
ed the nomination of Harrison as indis-
pensable and suffi Gent for the triumph Of
the Republican party in November in
that State. New York had its way. For
getting its assurance. or compelled, after
winning the game. to own its hollowness,
Senator Warner Miller informed the con-
vention that if it did not nominate Levi p.
Morton for Vice-President New York
would go home sick at heart and dis
couraged."
The Neaos Ind.) says: .sBy the nomi-
nation of Benjamin Harrison the Ma
tional Republican party has happily
eliminated the personality Of Mr.. James
G. Blaine from the coming campaign.
Upon this one result not only the party,
but Mr.. Blaine and the entire country is
to be most heartily congratulated. In
regard to Mr.. Harrison's availability, so
far as his personality and record will
count in the campaign, he may be said to
be q negative quantity"
The Globe (Dem) this morning says:
sand SO, after all, the plutocracy have
taken up the descendant of his grand
father"
The Times (Dem.) says: 1.-THE nomina.
tion of General Harrison, following that
of President Cleveland, gives reasonable
security that we are to have a decent
campaign. We shall be spared the name
less horrors of 1874, and our wives and
daughters may safely be allowed to read
the daily papers. Levi P. Morton, the
candidate for Vice-President, is the ideal
business man, and has in great degree
the confidence of the people of his State"
The Inter- Ocean (Rep.) says: ''The
convention labored honestly and earnest
ly to take advantage of all the conditions
of party success, planted itself firmly on
the principles of advanced Republican,
ism, and made as standard bearers two
men we'll known to the country for purity
of life, rectitude of purpose and devotion
to Republican principles"
Milwaukee.
MILWAUKEE, Wis, June 26-The Sem
tinel, the leading Republican paper of
the State says: 'The nomination is
one which will secure harmony and gen.
era1 satisfaction in the party. While
large numbers of Republicans had other
preferences, no one will deny that Gen.
eral Harrison is fit and worthy candi-
date"
Der Herold German Ind.) says: "We
see no reason why General Harrison
should not be elected. He certainly ought
to make our Western States solid again.
Harrison has good old stock in him. He
is so young that they can not kill him of
rapidly like his grandfather"
Der Zebote German Dem.), says: 1.-THE
Republican convention was controlled by
a lot of party bosses, whose actions insure
Democratic success. General Harrison
can not be considered strong candidate,
for he has nothing in his favor except that
his grandfather had been President for
short time"
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, June 26.-The Jour.
nal says: "If his nomination were not sc
clearly the result of human wisdom we
should call it inspiration"
The Sentinel tDem.) says: General
Harrison's nomination is not in any sense
q strong one. He is lacking in most OF
the qualities which combine to make
great party leader and popular candidate
before the people. He has not been espe-
cially distinguished either in military or
civil life. General Harrison can not carry
Indiana and he can not be elected"
Kansas City.
KANSAS CRY, Mo-, June 26.-The Times
says: benjamin Harrison, by virtue OF q
feud in the convention which it was dam
gerous to prolong, and of the accident OF
| living in a pivotal State, is the Republican
| candidate for President of the United
| States"
| The Euening Star (Ind. Dem.) says:
disappointing to the rank and file Of the

National convention failed to act nm to
