recently been placed upon the pension

dates back six years, the amount re-
ceived, ($2SS) is somewhat comforting,
coming as it does upon the raw edge Of

speech indorsing the platform.
Mr.. Scott presented a resolution indorsing
tn e Mills bill and urging it's immediate pas
sage. =
Both the platform and this resolution were
carried unanimously amid great enthusiasm.
After the adoption of the platform, the roll Of
States was called for the nomination of candi-
dates for Vica-President. When California
was reached there was a pause, and then Dele
gate Tarpey arose, and in an eloquent speech,
on behalf of the Golden State presented the
name of Allen G. Thurman.
! The wild scene at C1eveland's nomination
was re-enacted.
| Hon. j. w. Daniel, Of Virginia, seconded
| Thurmans nomination in brilliant speech,
! which was received with enthusiasm.
Very brief and pithy, but right to the point,
| were the remarks of New Jerseys executive,
| and A. w. Dorsey, of Nevada, who followed
him. created ripple of deprecatory laughter
! by talking about the "Sister OF the Eastern
slope bathing her classic feet in the limpld
waters of the Mississippi" and by referring to
| Nevada a place where sthe fields are ever
green and the orange blossoms shine"
When North Carolina was reached q delegate
| rose in his seat and spoke briefly in behalf OF
| Thurman.
! All eyes were turned toward Ohio when that
| State was called. General Thos. y. Powell had
| been selected to speak in its behalf, but the
| convention was rapidly losing its patience and
| he encountered a cool reception when he took
| the stage and before he had uttered a hundred
| words there were murmurs and cries of Time"
| He said there was nothing in the history OF the
| country like this political uprising of the
people, starting in California and crossing from
the Pacific to the Atlantic in favor of that grand
| old statesman, the Gladstone OF America The
| cries of "Sit down" and '"Time'' increased in
| volume and the chairman pounded his desk in
| vain. At last Mr.. Powell broke of in the mid
| die of sentence and precipitately retired.
South Carolina was called and Captain Daw-
son secured hearing by promising not to talk
! more than two minutes. He seconded Thur
| man as man, in himself history and a
| prophesy; not SO much "a grand old Roman as
| a grand old American" a man whose name
has told the story of the Democracy of ne
| country for half century.
| Governor Trockmorton of Texas, who spoke
| in behalf of divided delegation. had little to

MI. Barnum, OF Connecticut. moved that when
the convention adjourned it should be until ten
o'clock tomorrow morning. This was amend
ed to both 8 a. m. and p. m Renewed confu-
sion prevailed, and In the midst OF the uproar
Delegate Hensel Of Pennsylvania, moved that
the convention proceed to the nomination Of
candidates for the presidency and vice-p resi-
dency, but that no ballots be taken until the
committee on platform had reported.
Mr.. Brown, of Ohio, asked that the latter
clause be stricken out, but by majority vote
the convention refused to adjourn and adopted
Hensefs resolution.
The clerk commenced to call the roll, and
Alabama was named The chairman OF the
delegation responded that they rendered the
first place on the call and the right to speak to
New York. This brought out great cheering,
which was renewed when Daniel Dougherty
was named as the first orator to present the
name of Grover Cleveland. When this talent
ed acquisition to Tammany from the sister
City of Philadelphia appeared upon the plat
form to the right of the Chair, the enthusiasm
Of the immense audience knew no bounds.
Even this outburst, however. was put in the
shade by the storm that met his first mention
of the Presidents name and the declaration
that New York pledged HIM her electoral vote.
The very walls and roof were quivering. It
was magnificent memorable exhibition of
the inspiration that the name of Grover Glove
land brings to the Democracy. Nothing could
have been better than the delivery of the
speech. Upright as palmetto tree, with arm
outstretched, the words falling sharply-de-
fined and musical, and reaching the farthest
corners of the hall. it was an occasion when
the orator and his speech achieved a measure
of success that was perfect and ideal. The
climax was reached Nuen, with his arms raised
above his head, and hands clenched, the orator
concluded: 81 nominate Grover Cleveland OF
New York.
It was not until 1926 p. M, when the ap
plause had lasted Just twen:y-four minutes.
that the tumult came to an end.
Quiet reigned only for moment however.
Judge James A. Mckenzie, of Kentucky, was

r. P. Settle, OF Kentucky, In seconding the
nomination of Gray, alluded to Cleveland as

but this description of the President was ro-

The names OF the candidates were then
