One little incident OF the Convention held
last week by the Democrats Of Michigan
under the personal direction Of Mr.. Don
MUGwUAIP DICKINSON. an officeholder un-
der GROVER CLEVELAND Is worthy OF atten-
tion as specimen OF the spirit which ami
mates the partisans OF the Buffalo -or-bust
idea At q certain point in the proceedings.
q delegate. Mr.. O'BR1EN ATKINSON. arose
and denounced the cut-nnd-dried pro-
gramme. He attacked 1.-The principle OF
binding O committee to vote for any one
man. and accused CLEVELAND of an ina
bility to carry his own State" The accusa-
tion is entirely true. and even il it were
doubtful. surely Democratic Convention
ought to listen with respect and attention
to arguments which point out the weakness
OF candidate. or throw doubt upon his
strength. 1t has not been Democratic doc
trine or practice that the Democracy ex-
lists. not for its own principles. but for the
qualification OF one mans egotism: nor has
defeat been the usual and conscious object
OF Democratic effort. Mr.. ATKINsON's re-
marks should have been received with cour-
tesy and answered with courtesy il they
could bo answered. The report Of the Chi
cHg0 Times shows with what fairness and
dncency tho Hon. Don MUGwUMP DIcKIN-
SONS deadhead delegates treated Demo-
crat. whose sole offence was that he dared
to tell an unwelcome truth:
Cries OF Turn him out arose from every portion
Of the building Men In their seats cenched their
teeth and their hands ard showed u disposition to
forcibly eject him"
The truth teller was howlcd down. He
was lucky to escape with his life. He had
been guilty OF the objectionable sin. Ho
had committed eze-Mugwumpery No
wonder DICKINsoNs deadheads wanted to
put him out. The truth hurts.

seven years, was ut last buried bv his
