standing outside of a tent recommended
any and all of the delighted crowd to
enter and feast their eyes upon the
wonders within. But the contingent
from the country did not have il all
their own way, and the
SURREY, DRAG AND DOG CART,
bumped against and contested for the
right of way with the bucolic farmers
wagon which had come to the Fair.
A few of the ultra fashionable, whose
attendance was owing solely to the
steeplechase, spent the interval be-
tween heats in partaking of
lunch to an accompaniment of
extra dry. Their more plebean
neighbors in the pavilion and vi
cinity cast enviOus glances in the
direction of the paddock, but the little
parties were thoroughly oblivious of
glances and lived for themselves alone,
while discussing salads and pates, and
were only reused from their lethargy
bv the advent of the steeplechase.
Each department is now completed,
and the exhibits are all in, and have
been placed in their proper places. To
adequately obtain an idea of the merits
of the fair would require days of IN
speetion in the buildings alone. The

After adoption OF the platform Daniel
N. Lockwood, who nominated Mr..
Cleveland, took the stand and made
speech which closed with the renomina-

wood mentioned the name of David B.
Hill both the audience and the delegates
rose to their feet and cheered wildly,
waving hats, bandanas aud flags.
When Mr.. Lockwood could again
make himself heard he moved
that the nomination of David B. Hill
for governor be made by acclamation.
He gave way, however to permit Dis

Gen. Roger A. Pryor, of New York, to

there was sound of wild applause and
a scene of frantic delight that lasted

On motion of Hon. Timothy Campbell

WASHINGTON, Sept. lat appears
that Judge Gresham has been talking
pretty plainly while on his European
tour about Mr.. Blaine and Gen. Harri-
son. The New York Herald published
on Monday, Sept. 8, what purported to
be an interview with Judge Gresham in
Paris. 1t was supposed that 1t was
identical with what was published in
the Paris edition of the paper, but
copy of that edition just received shows
that the American editors OF the
Herald, for some reason, cut out en-
tirely the following pungent paragraph,
which was the most racy thing IN the
interview:
Speaking of Mr.. Blaine" remarked
Judge Gresham, with smile, you are
leaving out an important part OF your
interview. If | were Democrat talk
ing to a newspaper man-which am
mott shonld say: But, see here, you
Republicans, this whole campaign of
yours is piece of inconsistency. In
your convention you could not agree
upon Mr.. Blaine and nominated Mr..
Harrison. Now it appears that Mr..
Harrison is a sort of figurehead, while
MIR. Blaine practically controls the
policy of the contest. Furthermore, 1t
is generally understood that, as secre-
tary of state, Mr.. Blaine will direct the
policy of the next administration should
the Republicans win. In other words,
Mr.. Blaine is to all intents and pur-
poses the candidate. But this is pal
pabIe absurdity, for, if Mr.. Blaine is
unfit to run i'll person for the presi-
dency, he is surely unfit to be the man
ager of the man VINO was nominated in
his place. The people of the United
States will not be deceived by any such
ridiculous device of the party leaders.
THAT is what should say if were
a Democrat" concluded the judge, en-
joying his reserved role, ''but remem-
ber am not a Democrat, and so l say
nothing of the sort"

John Dickson second, Champion Me-

The fourth and concluding heat re-
suited in victory for Iona. who Sc
cured the start and maintained it to the
end, the horses finishing as follows:
Iona, John Dickson, Jay Bee Ess and
Champion Medium, who were awarded
first, second, third and fourth money
respectively. The first half of this heat
was made by Iona in 1:0S4, and the
finish in the remarkably good time of
2:22H.
The steeplechase for the Minnesota
club cup was the running event of the
afternoon, and the highly wrought up
anticipatIOns of the spectators we're not
disappointed. Joe and Thornton Moore,
both owned by w. Ii. Patterson. st.
Paul, were drawn; and Patsy Duffy,
owned by E. Z. Burnside, Gov.
Bowie, Fred T. Chase's Pro-
posal, and John Campbell, Lord
George, owned by John Bradford;

St. Andrew was a favOrite, selling
against the field in the ratio of so to
Sl2; but the judgment OF his admirers
was seriously at fault, since he was not
in the race from the start.
The course was twice around the pad
dock, and thence for an ghth of mile
down the track in front of the amphl-
theater. The course along the paddock
was lined with four-foot hurdles, and
was provided with two water jumps. A
natural gully half way between the
judges stand and the quarter-mile post
materially added to the dangers OF the
race. From start to finish Deboe and
John Campbell hOtly contested for first
hOnOrS. At the first hurdle the latter
led. closely followed by the gelding,
with GraditZ length behind and Pro
posal taking the jump several lengths
in advance of st. Andrew and Patsy
Duffy, who at each step were falling
farther to the rear. At the the water

lowed by his feet competitor Deboe,

ON THIS THEY STAND.
A Strong Platform Erected and
Gov. Hill Placed Upon 1t by Ac-
cIannatiOn.

Upon reassembling this evening. D.
Cady Herrick. of Albany, was made
permanent chairman. Referring to Mr..
Cleveland and his administration, Mr..
Herrick said: "Some of us were so
accustomed to see the platform and
pledges of the dominant party broken
after election. that we thought that the
regular and proper thing; and when for
ourselves or our friends we sought
place, and found the law and the
pledges of the party standing in the
Way, we were both surprised and
grieved to find that the administration
we had chosen insisted on keeping its
pledges and enforcing the law. Then,
too, some of us had become so accus-.
toned to criticise and oppose the ad-,
miniStration that we kept it up, even
when it did come to be our own adj
ministration. We could not at once
break loose from the lifelong habit OF

the speaker. 1--WE are no longer the

racy: made so by the responsibilities of
power and public trust, and we appeal
to the people to say if those RESPONSE
bilities have not been we'll met and
those trusts faithfully fulfilled" TAp-
plause.1 Following Mr.. Herrick the
committee on resolutions presented the
platform.
In the first plank the St. Louis candidates
and platform are indorsed; the presidents
letter of acceptance is commended as an
elaboration of what the New York Democ.
racy believe and feel.
The second plank halls with patriotic
satisfaction the bold. aggressive and states
manlike message of President Cleveland
upon the fisheries question, vindicating the
rights and proclalming anew the dignity of
American citizenship. We congratulate our
country in that it has president, who know
ing the right,
DAREs MAINTAIN IT"
The third plank commends the efforts OF
the president 10 enforce the laws relative TO
imported contract labor, and recommends a
clude criminals and paupers from abroad.
The Chinese bill is Endorsed, and its ap-
proval by the senate is demanded.
''We condemn the Republican party of the
United States senate" runs the language of
the platform. "for its hostility TO the labor
measures which were passed by the house of
representatives in March and April of 1888
and which have failed to receive even con-

CItmate and wtId CritIctsm.

Ed. 2. G. ADUERTIsER-Sir: My at
tention has been called to column pub
lished in the Bulletin" of last Satur-
day, under the heading of "Climate and
Providence" which is a brainless effu-
sion on an article by me written at the
pressing request of Mr.. j. J. Williams
for the Paradise of the Pacific"
After first reading that remarkable
production it struck me that the COM
positors of the Paradise" had surely
made me say some awful blunder, SO l
rushed to that last paper to read over
my own article. [ then went back to
the Bulletin" and after several careful
comparisons between the two papers,
the only conclusion l was able to come
to was : Either that the author of cell
mate and Providence" had just partaken
of very bad dinner, or that he had had
no dinner at all for several days, or that
he had just escaped from DR.. fuckers
Asylum. And myself, with many others
who are well acquainted with the editor
of the Bulletin" and know his perfect
taste, his good judgment and common
sense, his intelligence of newspaper
matters generally, and above all his
perfect courtesy and gentlemanly man
ners, we feel quite assured that had Mr..
Walter Hill been present when that
foolish article was published he would
not have allowed in his paper for differ
ent reasons.
On one hand it is of no public use or
interest, but is plainly only a spiteful
eruption of unjustifiable malice and pri-
vate feeling, which will not hurt me in
the least, considering that the author is
nevertheless obliged to do me the credit
that all what wrote was perfectly cor
rect, only his principal grievance seems
to be that happened to use the word
Providence" when he considers I ought
to have used "devil."
But, on the other hand, the only effect
of such a hollow criticism-should it
have any-would be on those who do
not know better than to cast a slur on
the veracity of the publication Paradise
of the Pacific and discredit the authori-
ty abroad, thereby injuring the good
work that our excellent townsman, Mr..
J. j. Williams, is so periodically and
disinterestedly trying to do for the whole
country.
