elsewhere; but upon vote of nearly a
million and a half, where the parties arc
so nearly equal in strength as there, little
apathy, little friction, littleness OF the Bit

all friction is allayed, all bitterness is re-

must frankly state the situation. and the
potential reasons why New York should name
the Presidential candidate. We must have the
vote OF New York in this election and equally
with US the Democracy concedes that the re-
suit must be determined there. New York,
outside of her one great city, is more Stronly
Republican than any New England State.
Labor in New York City, as elsewhere has be-
market to foreign capital by the Democracy,
and its sturdy blows will be delivered for our
side in this vital contest.
I'VE propose candidate whose name will
be an inspiration to our country. His name is
dear to us all. His counsel has led US and will
guide us, his elOquence has electrified US and
will continue to inspire US. His broad and
statesmanlike utteranceS have long commanded
the respect of the people not Of New York
alone, but wherever heard or read AS
Chief Magistrate of the Republic his
Supberb abilities, his matchless executive
equipment, his thorough knowledge of affairs,
his broad comprehension of public interests
and the Nations capacities his perfect in
tegrity his business and consideration OF
the rights of men, his fidelity to Repub-
lcan principles, would assure an admin
istration promotive of National develop
ment and progress. Yes, he is the presi-
dent of great railroad corporation, and there
is not a farmer, freighter, mechanic or common
laborer in New York who will vote against him
for that. AS his life has been above reproach,
so IN the management of the vast business in
terests under his control he has gained the con-
fdence and holds the respect OF all our people.
I have told you that the laborers. the wage
workers, were to be on our side in this contest.
They will not be repealed by the candidate we
propose, but such has been service and
fidelity to them, as to all interests intrusted to
him. and SO true and helpful a friend and coun
selor has he proved himself that they will rally
to his standard and make his election sure. AS
their candidate, and as the choice Of the Re-
publicans of New York, present for nomina-
ton by this convention as the Republican can
didate for President of the United States
Chauncey M. Depew.''

SHERMAN'S TURN.
General Daniel b. Hastings, of Pennsylvania,
in nominating John Sherman, of Ohio, said:
pennsylvania is opposed to Grover Cleve-
land and to a continuation Of his AdmnStra-
ton. Her electoral vote will be cast for the
nominee OF this convention Pennsylvania
comes to this convention and with great unan-
unity asks you to name standard-bearer who
will represent the principles, the traditions,
lions OF the Republican party; a man
whose name will stand for it's integ-
rity, its doctrines and its matchless his
tory man who will execute the

hands of honest freemen, wherewith to drive
from place and power party which holds the
reins OF National Government by fortuitous
circumstances, and against the true intent and
honest desire OF majority OF the Nations
sovereigns.
HE whom shall name needs no introduce
ton. His career, his character, his manhood
and his illustrious achievements are a part OF
the Nations history. The people know him by
heart. Taey whom I represent, and who ask
this nomination at your hands, point you
to grand career, beginning with those
patriots who rocked the cradle OF Republican
ism; to a man who has been in the fore front Of
every battle for his party; who has been its
counsel, its champion, it's strong right arm:
whose name is a tower of strength, and who
was never defeated for any Office for which he
was nominated.

true soldiers of both sides who bravely and 10y

that impossible barriers should be erected on

Sistent friend and steadfast champion.
He was the soldiers friend in war, and he
has been their constant friend in peace. He

My countrymen, the central issue of the

our system of currency be the best in the
