The Duty of The Convention.


The convention which meets in Atlanta
on wednesday, to choose delegates to the
st. Louis convention, should act with de
liberation and caution. The honor of rep
resenting the state in the national conven-
ton, will be sought, doubtless, by great
many. Some will seek it on the ground
that they have been staunch Democrats all
their lives, others that they have served
the party faithfully in many hard fought
political contests and a few, proba-
bly,, will endeavor to control the selection
of the entire delegation by means Of com
binations
It will be an easy matter TO select delega-
ton that will fully represent the party and
be an honor to the State There are plenty of
good and able men who are willing to serve
as delegates, and the convention will have
no difficulty in finding them. 1t should
determine at the outset that it will not be
influenced by a few politicians who are
always on hand and who seem TO think that
they know what the convention ought to
do better than it does itself, and that it
will not be led into doing what it does not
want to do.
The county mass meetings settled two
things. First, the Democrats Of this State
desire the nomination of Mr. Cleveland;
and, second, they want the tariff plank in
the National platform to be in harmony
with his tariff message The duty of the
Atlanta convention, therefore, is clear. 1t
should select for delegates only those who
are in harmony with the expressed will of
the Democratic masses. Unless a candi-
date for delegate can say that he is for Mr..
Cleveland and tariff reduction, he ought
not to be selected, not only because he can
not fairly represent the Democrats of the
State, but, also, because he may be able to
assist in defeating their will.
There will be undoubtedly protection
Democrats among the delegates at st.
Louis, and it is reasonable to suppose that
they will try to have the tariff plank in tho
platform SO framed that it will condemn
the Presidents tariff message. If they do
not succeed they will, at least, produce CON
fusion and destroy the harmony of the con-
vention. The effect will be bad,
and have a depressing influence
upon the campaign. If they do
succeed, 1T Is pretty certain that Mr.. Cleve-
land would refuse to accepts denomination,
because he could not afford to go before the
country upon platform which condemned
the most important act of bis administrs-
ton. If ne were to accept a denomination
upon a platform which could be interpreted
as questioning the wisdom of his tariff mes
sage, his chances of being elected would be
limited.
This being the situation, and the Demo-
Gratis of the State. with a unanimity never
equaled upon any other questions, having
declared for Mr.. Cleveland and reduction
Of the tariff, the Atlanta convention can
not, without violating the trust reposed in
it, chose any one for delegate to the ma
tional convention who is not positively in
favor of tariff reduction as well as of Mr..
Cleveland's denomination.

The Man from Maine.

The story published in our dispatches yes
terday that Blaine had consented to accept
the Presidential nomination of his party I'M
der certain circumstances, if rendered to him,
must have caused Senator Shermln and
other candidates for the nomination a
sleepless night. They have been conducting
their campaigns with the understanding
that Baine's Florence letter was written in
good faith, but they know very well that If
Mr.. Blaine is a candidate they have no
chance whatever to get the nomination.
Doubtless they still hope that the story,
which is published on the author
ity of the Philadelphia Times, is
without foundation. All the move
ments of Blaines friends for the last
month, however, indicate that they have
never doubted that their favorite would be
the nominee. If they did not expect he
would be candidate, why have they so
persstently denied all the reports that his
health was failing, and why did they have
his picture, showing him to be in excellent
health at the present time, published in the
Judge last week.
Perhaps this story of Blaine's candidacy
will bring more sadness to Senator Sher-
man than any other candidate He knows
that if he does not secure the nomination
this year the chances are he never will get
it, and for several weeks he has regarded his
success as almost certain. 1t is rather
doubtful, however, if he could be nominated
if Blaine should ROMAN out of the field
He will go into the convention with large
following, but it will be very difficult for
him to increase it. II is even probable that
Judge Gresham could beat him. Gre ham
is steadily growing in favor in the West, and
although his own State, Indiana, instructed
its delegates for ex-senator Harrison.
Illinois will stand by him. Indeed it is
doubtful if Indiana wouldn't rather have
Gresham than Harrison.
Confirmation of the story relative to
Blaine's intentions will be awaited with
deep interest. II he says squarely that he
will accept the nomination if rendered to
him, there will be an immense amount of
work done for him in the next few weeks.
The aim will be to nominate him by accla-
nation before any other candidate can be
named.

Three Graves.

How did he live, this dead man here,
With the temple above his grave?
He lived as great one, from cradle to bier,
He was nurSed in luxury, trained in pride,
When the wish was born it was grati1ed;
Without thanks he took, without heed he gave;
The common man to him was q clod
From whom he was far as a demigod
His duties? To see that his rents were paid
His pleasure? To know that the crowd obeyed
HIS pulse if you felt it, throbbed apart,
With a separate stroke from the peoples heart.
But whom did he love, and whom did he bless?
Was the life of him more than mans or less?
know not. lie died. There was none to blame
And as few to weep; and these marbles came
For the temple that rose to preserve his namel
How did he live, the other dead man,
From the graves apart and alone?
AS great one, too? Yes, this was one
Who lived to labor and study and plan;
The earthS deep thought he loved to reveal;
He banded the breasts of the land with steel;
The thread of his toll he never broke;
He filled the cities with wheels and smoke,
And workers by day and workers by night,
For the day was too short for his vigOrS flight
Too firm was he to be feeling and giving;
For labor for gain, was a life worth living,
He worshiped Industry, dreamt of her, sighed
for her
Potent he grew by her, famous he died for her.
They say he improved the world in his time
That his mills and his mines were a work
When he died-the laborers rested and sighed.
Which was it-because he had lived or diedY
And how did he live that dead man there
in the country churchyard laidy
Oh, he? He came from the sweet field air;
He was tired of town. and he took no pride
In its fashions or fame. He returned and died
In the place he loved, where child he played
With those who have knelt by his grave and
prayed
He ruled no serfs and he knew no pride:
He was one of the workers. side by side
He hated mill and mine and town.
With their fever of misery, struggle, renown;
He could never believe but man was made
For nobler end than the glory of trade
For the youth he mourned with an endless pity
Who were cast like snow on the streets OF the
city.
He was weak, maybe, but he lost no friend;
Who loved him once, loved ON to the end
He mourned all selfish and shrewed endeavor;
He never injured weak one-never.
When censure was passed he was kindly dumb:
He was never so wise but a fault would come;
He was never so old that he failed to enjoy
The games and the dreams he had loved when
boy.
He erred, and was sorry; but never drew
A trusting heart from the pure and true
When friends looCback from the years to be-

Taking an Unwarranted Liberty
From the Detroit Free Pres.


Two ladies' who live neighbors on TrImbul
avenue have never called on each other because
rs they both moved there at the same time they
could never decide which one was to make the
first call.
For the same reason they have never spoken
TO each other, but have waited to be formally
introduced. A few days ago there arose a slight
disturbance between the children of the two
families and the least ceremonious of the two
ladies took this occasion 10 step over to hel
