Cakes Yells For Harrison

On Monday afternoon, station master
Squirting placed on the bulletin board,
in the blank left for ballots, on the sth
ballot that Ben Harrison was nominat-
ed for President. This was the signal
for great rejoicing. Groups of people
on the streets, in the hotels and every
where were discussing the nomination.
Promptly at 40 the Blaine Republi-
can Club. under the command of Major
E. G. Baldwin, came out, each carrying
torches. These were joined by the
Gate City Band, who headed the pro-
cession. After marching through the
principal streets the large and enthusi-
astic procession halted on Union St.
opposite the Bank of Oakes. The City
Council and Mayor who were in session
came out and reviewed the procession.
The Band formed into hollow square,
the torch lighters marching to right
and left of them. After several patri-
otic airs had been played, loud calls
were made for Cakes most eloquent
talker, Dr.. 7. H. Matthews, who in
Well-chosen and patriotic words praised
the action, of the Chicago Convention
and lauded the grand old party. The
Doctor was loudly applauded, after
which Hon. E. W. Robey was called
for. Mr.. Robey gave an interesting
history of the Harrison family and was
listened to with marked attention.
Three rousing cheers were given for
Harrison, and at late hour the grand
concourse of people disbanded. 1t was
without doubt the grandest and most
imposing parade ever seen in Dickey
county-hundreds Of men in line, the
sidewalks, balconies and windows filled
with eager spectators and every few
moments the air was rent with deafen-
ing cheers for Harrison, and we thought
then if Dakota could vote for Harrison
it might work great good to the coun-
try at large.

Mr.. Morton has long been con-
spicuous figure in affairs, and it is
no small praise to say that lie has
been called with distinguished abil-
ity. MIR. Morton is the son of a
clergyman and the descendant of a
New England Puritan family, and
was born in Shoreham, Vermont.
about sixty-fve years ago. He was
e lucated in the local academy, en-
gagged in business in HANOVER, New;
Hampshire, at the age Of twenty
years, and at twenty-five was a clerk
in the house Of F. NJ. Beebe s CO
of Boston. Five years later he
founded the dry-goods commission, ilissi
house Of Morton s Grinell, in New
York city. In 1863 lie established!
the bank-house Of Morton 4 Bliss.
Of which he is still the head. His.
business career has been ryIsfornllY
sgxasasEse, siiS. ~ b sEs,{ ssS@ lss;s
live interest in politics began in 1876
when he was for the first time can
didate for Congress, and narrowly
missed success. Two years later he
ran again, in the Murray Hill Dis
trict Of New York city, and was
elected. AS a Representative he dis
played high capacity and intelligence
the interests Of the metropolis and
sound principles Of finance finding
in him a Jealous and efficient cham
pion. In 1880 Mr.. Morton was
talked of for the second place on the
Presidential ticket, which was, how
ever, given to Gen. Arthur. Presi-
dent Garfield appointed him United
States Minister to France-a high
position to which he did great credit,
establishing his popularity in Paris
and increasing it at home. Two
years ago he was candidate for the
Senate, but was unsuccessful.

ventiOn, Next Year.

At the Railway Station Agents
Convention last week, held in Red
field, Dakota, James E. Squirting,
the efficient station master of the
union depot..in this city was elected
chairman, and Oakes was decided on
as the next place for the convention,
Oakes was named owing to her CEN
tral position and her unrivalled rail-
way connections, and her splendid
hotel accommodations. Mr.. A. P.
Bunce, agent Of the $780, Line was
present from Oakes, and got in some
good work for our gate city. There
is no reason in the world why Oakes
should not succeed in securing a
large number Of territorial gather
ings. All we need to accommodate
a big crowd is the proper hall, and
that Is now being built.

The nomination Of Ben Harrison
of Indiana, means the last nail in
Democracy's coffin this fall, As a
matter Of fact the Democrats must
have the Solid South together with
New York and Indiana. This they
must have or Grover Cleveland is
not elected. While the Republicans
can lose New York, New Jersey and
carry Indiana and yet elect Harri.
son. Ben Harrison can carry Indi-
ana by 10000 majority, while
Morton has as fair chance to carry
New York as Cleyeland has, but
with Indiana safe for Harrison
(which it is) where will this great
administration Of reform and civil
service be in November?

Sound, safe, honest and reliable
are chief qualities that go to make
up the characters Of Indiana's and
New York's foremost sons-Benia-
min Harrison and Levi P. Morton.
They are the men Of all others who
will carry all Of the Northern
States in November. They were
nominated at Chicago On Monday
last and they will sweep the country
i'll November.
Benjamin Harrison was born
Aug. Goth, 1888, at Hamilton, Ohio.
He attended the University of
Oxford and graduated from that
institution. For two years he read
law in Cincinnati and in 1854 went
to Indianapolis, which has ever since
been his place Of residence. He
soon acquired sterling reputation
for his ability in law matters In
1860 he was elected reporter Of the
S. 5st. ut tii,i
outbreak OF the civil war lie enlisted
in the Federal service and was soon
after commissioned second lienten-
ant. lie was one Of the $4,000 men
who responded to President Lincoln s
first call for troops. After the ex-
piration of the term Of his enlistment
he organized a company OF volun-
teers, and was made Colonel Of the
10th Indiana Vols. He was COM
nlissioned Brigadier General and
was mustered out in 1865. In 1876
he ran for Governor Of Indiana, on
the Republican ticket. but was de-
feated. In '79 he was appointed to
the Mississippi River commission.
In 1881 he was chosen for Indiana
to succeed F. Mcdonald (Democrat)
in the United States Senate, and
made host Of friends in that body.
In 1884 his name was most promi-
nently mentioned as the possible
choice of the Republican National
Convention, and had break occur
ed in Blaine's forces, he probably
would have been elected. In 1887
he was defeated in the Indiana Leg
islature for reelection to the Senate
Of the United States.
