graduates the Republican party on the

worthler has ever filled the presidential
chair.
New York Tribune: At once an embodI-
ment and champion OF Republican ideas.
benjamin Harrison will be asked to serve
again because he has served we'll, and the
people Will trust HIM again because he has
been found worthy of trust
ST. Louis Globe-Dem0crat: His fortunes
and those of his party are now identified
so far as the pending campaign is con-
Cerned; and his reelection is demanded in
the interest of national prosperity and for
the promotion OF the cause of sound and
benellcent government.
Boston Journal: The more think it,
the clearer 1T seems TO us that in the DOml-
nation'ot Mr.. Harrison the weak points are
strength in il and the popular response to
1t will grow steadily. the more the issues
and the candidates are discussed.
Philadelphia Inquirer: We have never
had any sympathy with the dark horse idea
The President has seemed TO us TO he the
only candidate If Mr.. Blaine was not in the
race. Therefore, we rejoice that the Presi-
dent Is once more to lead the party to VIC
tory. Of his election there is no reasona-
BILE doubt.
Chicago Inter Ocean: Every man who
believes In the doctrines of the Republican
party will be drawn to Harrison with q
growing enthusiasm and all those who
place cleanliness conscience and ability in
the conduct of public affairs above party
fealty Will think long before they vote
against him.
Cincinnati Commercial Gazette: Harri-
son, the soldier, the scholar, the jurist and
the Christian statesman, Is a type of true
American manhood, and there is 10 Amer
lean. Democrat or Republican, who would
not be honored by casting a vote for him
for the highest office In the gift OF the
American people.
Kansas City Journals; The candidates are
both good. clean men. fully qualified by eX-
perience and otherwise for the positions for
which they have been selected. If the Re-
publican party cannot win with them IL
could not have won with anybody. The
ticket is TO sum 1T up briefly, model one,
and il Will be irresistible.
Buffalo Commercial: President Harrison
Is a far stronger candidate to-day than he
was Tour years ago. Let Republicans
mark this prediction: He will be- a far
stronger candidate in November than he is
to-day. His record. and the record of
his administration, will make friends for
him straight through the canvass.
Toledo Commercial: What is left to do
IL for every Republican aud every lover OF
good government to go to work and help
elect this ticket. Though the ticket ia pop
ular and the platform sound. election is
only assured by hard work and contestip &
every inch of ground. The enemy is des-
perate and wary. and will fight bitterly.
Louisville Commercial: In the opinion
of the Commercial the nomination of Har-
rison was the very best that the conven-
ton could have made. He was the logical
candidate of the party. The campaign must
he made upon the record of his administra-
ton, and II could not be made as effectively
with anybody else at the head of the
ticket
Detroit Tribune: The Tribune pied es
the Republicans of Michigan to an unwav-
erlng. and loyal, and successful campaign
to the end, and 1t predicts that the next
President of the United States will be the
man who has proven his devotion TO his
country in nearly four years of magnificent
administration of its affairs, Benjamin
Harrison.
Cleveland Leader: The American peo-
pie owe him a second term. The men who
opposed him at Minneapolis, Quay. Platt,
| Cl8rksOn. WOlcOtt aid the rest of them,
should help elect him now. He has beaten
them in a fair manly fight, and they, az
true Republicans. should now unite with
HIM TO beat the common enemy, the Bour-
bon Democracy.
Philadelphia North American: If any inn
| parchment could have been made of the
| personal or political integrity of the Presi-
dent; II there could have been any arraign-
ment of his public utterances or of his
| official acts this denomination would have
| been impossible, in view of the aggressive

| All are united for the man who won the
! victory at Minneapolis.
Ohio State Journal: Benjamin Harrison

ance and not been found wanting. He has
| been sifted as wheat and the only prOduc,
was the pure, golden grain. Even hi,
| political enemies recognize his inteErity
and patriotism and willingly weld hin
their respect. He will be reelected In No

absolutely free from official scandals and
has been sinRularly successful in all It'll
important measuree and policies.
| Boston Journal: The action of the Re
i

/ polls next November. 1t is deserved
