They Won't Have Him.

Oddly enough. our esteemed contempo-
rary. the Boston Post, seems to DO tho only
Journal outside Of Chicago in which we
have seen reported an unusually interesting
occurrence in the Lake City at the reception
given by the Cook County Democratic Club
to tho Democratic members OF the Legis!a-
ture who elected General JOHN II. PALMER
Senator. The enthusiasm OF the welcome was
worthy OF the loyalty and persistence with
which these legislators had stood by their
candidate. Besides the Democrats, however.
there was present Farmer CocKRELL, one OF
the L. NJ. B. A. members who had given the
additional votes necessary for PALMER's
election. He made an address explaining
his course in the long struggle, and In con-
cluslon said, "impressvely," as he is quoted
by the Chicago journals:
Now, on behalf Of four million farnsrA wish to
you that you cannot mako GRovks CLEvkLAEp the
next President of the tuited States"
Upon this delivery there seems to have
been great applause; but we find the occur.

contemporary OF Boston under the title,

wumps are queer birds truly.
