BANGOR. June S-Clevelandism In Maine re-
ceivcd its death blow in the Democratic state
Convention o-day The subcommittee OF the
Committee on Resolutions had prepared a
plank on the Presidential situation saturated
with Clevelandism. 1t looked strong. but the
solution Of Clevelandism had weakened 1t SO
much that whom the Convention jumped on
1t with both feet It broke and let the
supporters OF the ex-PrCsident drop with
the proyerbal dull thud." This result was
n surprise all around. The opponents OF
Cleveland did not know how much strength
they had and the Cleveland faction surely did
not know how weak it had become. Maine
has always been claimed as n Cleveland
stronghold. but to-days Convention demon
strated that Clevelandism was decidedly on
the wanc.
The test OF the sentiment Of tho Convention
came on n resolution to instruct the delegates
to vote for Cleveland ms long as he was a can
didate. In the discussion that followed one
after another Of the strongest men OF the party
spoke against the instructions. and many OF
them openly opposed Cleveland's renomna-
ton. When the vote was taken the resolution
was overwhelmingly defeated. but was
later adopted in an amended form in
which the Convention recommended his nom
ination. To show how much sincerity tbere
WAS in this SOP which they threw to the Cleve-
land faction. tho delegates then proceeded to
elect three anti Clevcland delegates and only
one supporter of the Stuffed Prophet.
The Convention was united in demand for
the rcsubmission Of the prohibition amend
ment to the people. and scored the Republi-
cans in the following language:
The pretended execu'i n of Tie rrohibitory law :

b. again submitted 10 the people. TO the end that they
may become informed of the present disgraceu! con.
d,tion OF the matter and provide some more effective
means TO meet the increasing evil Of intemperance.
After wranglinC over the platform all tho
afternoon the delegates chose the Hon. Charles
F. johnson Of Watervile as their candidate for
Governor by vote of $50 to l4S for the Hon.
Galen c. Moses of Bath.
At the Fourth District Convention. held in
this city yesterday. the Hon. J. p Bass OF the
Bangor Commercial. a decided opponent OF
Cleveland was elected delegate by IA large ma
jority. and Of the twelve district and State
delegates over half are either personally for
Hill or opposed to the nomination of Cleveland.

cation Place Harrison In the Lead.

NtSSEApoL1s. June SIT is impossible to
get at the ballot tables OF the leaders
on either side. but THE SuN has
obtained what must be close to
tie same results by getting the figures from
,hc Chairman OF each delegation. This state
mont will show the reader more
contract view Of the entire field than
mile OF writing. The figures are
slightly in favor Of Harrison. and
the general feeling among well-informed per-
sons is that Harrison has the advantage.
There is no apparent change at midnight OF
Wednesday, in the situation at Minneapolis.
{ far as the relative strength of Harrison and
tie opposition is concerned.
The Blaine men who control tho National
and Convention committees still keep up
Il cir policy Of representation. and continue
to encourage outside candidates likely to
weaken Harrison. Mckinley is still in the
outer field, but shows little magnetism.
The name Of Reed cnmc ftiully in the con-
test through attempts to get Massachusetts, to
cast friendly vote for him. Algcr still thinks
himself possibility. hut has only score of
votes to his credit. his own State not being

leard from Iowa. but the man most likely
to become formidable. If the contest is pro-
longci By one ballot, is John sherman. OF
whom there is little talk. sherman would

side the dual contest.
1t looks as though the Blaine tactics for
delay will keep the delegates here till Satur
day night. To-day in the Convention the
Blaine men boldly showed their hands " ask
ing for more time at every step. The delay
is fretting the delegate. Tonight the Blaine
managers are all in rr tractel secret con-
ference. and they evidently feel that their stu
alton is most serious
The Harrison forces arc moro confident to-
