CHICAGO, June 25.-After Harrison's
nomination to-day was declared unani-
nous Morrison, Of Indiana, moved a
recess till O'Clock this evening. Lost
by an overwhelming vote. The Chair
then declared the regular order to be the
presentation Of names for Vice-P Presiden-
tial nominations.
Denny, of Kentucky, nominated VIM.
f. Bradley, of that State. He said he
thought it about time the Southern Re-
publicans were given show. The nomi-
nation was seconded by Griffin, Of
Kansas. Warner of Alabama, Houck Of
Tennessee, Watt Of Georgia, Atkinson OF
Michigan.
A MACEDONIAN CRY.
Houck, of Tennessee, said in his
speech: 1t is true Bradley comes from
the Solid South, but why is the South
solid? 1t is not the fault Of the South
ern Republicans. 1t is not altogether
the fault of the Democratic party. 1t is
largely the fault of you Northern Repub-
licans. [Cheers There is not North
ern man that made speech in the South
in ten years, that know of, except John
Sherman, who came to Tennessee and
made one speech. / know something
about the South. / feel that in South
Carolina, Louisiana, Alabama, Missis-
sippi, there are but poor opportunities to
build up Republican party and achieve
a hltnor, xricforp. h,1t ~, Nortk Cov
olina, Virginia, West Virginia, Ten
nessee and Kentucky, / tell you
LII you will turn your attention to
| it there is a missionary ground
in all these States, and their electoral vote
may be had, not only in the future, but
in the present for Harrison, and who
ever may be nominated as the Vice.
Presidential candidate. l second the
nomination of Bradley, because he is a
man who entered the field in Kentucky
solitary and alone. Not Northern man
came to his aid; not Southern man
came to his aid, but one, to make a
speech. We canvassed that State and after
canvassing it from one end to the other,
we reduced the Democratic majority from
"A 900 to less than 10000. Is not such q
man worthy to be honored? Again it ia
said all around you that you are doing
nothing in the South. That is true; you
can never do anything in the South, until
you give the South some attention. II
you will turn your eyes there, send some
of your sinews Of war there Qaughter)
instead Of to some of the
doubtful States where you always lose it.
Laughter. Send some Of your good
speakers there and take my word for 1t
you will have the vote OF old Virginia,
West Virginia, Kentucky and Tennessee.
| want to say before l quit, do not be-
lieve would be Republican, if / could
have helped it. Why? Because you
Northern Republicans treat us SO
badly. You hardly give us self.
respect. You pay more attention
to rebels than you do to us. Now / APP
peal to you, reach out your hand across
the line, take us by the hand and at least
give us moral courage. Give us the
support of your moral force and some
good speaker to make speeches in the
South, and we will show. you
Republican victory. Cries OF
"Time," "Time.'l One word more. In
my own State of Tennessee, Tilden
carried the State by $4,000; Cleveland
carried it by less than 5000. While the
Democratic party gained thirty-two votes
in eight years, the Republican party in
turn gained $4,000. Tell me that is not
a fighting ground. Now, all l have to
say in conclusion is to not treat us as you
have in the past, at least give us your
friendship. [Great applause.l
DIFFERENCE TO CALIFORNIA.
While one of the speeches nominating
Bradley for Vice President was being
delivered, a number Of gentlemen
carried to the platform large
floral cushion, composed Of white
peonies, on a base of lilies
Of the valley. In the centre of the dis
play was large photograph Of General
Harrison. When it came into view. il
was heartily cheered. Upon the border be-
low the lilies Of the valley, was a card
bearing in large letters California" in
Difference to the action of that State,
which had contributed 80 largely to the
nomination of General Harrison.
When New Jersey was called, Senator
Sewell stated it was the intention Of the
New jersey delegation to present the
name Of William Walter Phelps for the
Vice-Presidential nomination. There
would be, he said, some brief seconding
speeches, and as the members of the
Convention were tired, he would move a
recess until 6 o'clock. Agreed to, and
the Convention adjourned.
