Washington. June l3 (Special.-" What do you
think OF the nominations ?" senator Chandler was asked
by a Tribune reporter yesterday.
1T IS difficult TO how stronger ticket than that
OF Harrison and Reid could have beeTT nominated:
Those who thought candidate ought to DO

I'm preventing a nomination even for one balloting.
Narrsons success by $50 all the first ballos
ought to be accepted fair fragment that no new
name brought forward or suggested would be as stong

did not do their justice by voting for Mr.
Rhne who WAS In the field, and for Mr. Mckinley.
who was so thoroughly committed for Harrison; but
their oint vOto OF c4 falls far below llarrlsons OF

would have enabled them to defeat Harrison. The
party will be united and the ticket Will grow steadily
stronger until success is reached In November
"What do YOU think of the omission TO renominate
Mr.. Mortonl"
No more able or popular Eastern candidate for
the Vice Presidency than Mr.. Reid could have been
