States. Its electoral vote shas always
been cast in support OF democratic
principles and democratic candidates Cheers
In voicing the unanimous wish of the delegation
from New Jersey, present as their candidate
for the suffrage of this convention the name OF
a distinguished democratic statesman born
upon its soil, for whom IN two great presi-
dental contests the state OF New Jersey has
given its electoral vote. Cheers The supreme
consideration in the mind Of the democracy Of
New Jersey is the success of the Democratic
party and its principles. We have been In the
past and will be in the future ready at all
times to sacrifice personal preferences
In Difference TO clear expressions OF the Will lor
the democracy Of the union. 1t is because this
name will awaken throughout our state the
enthusiasm of the democracy and insure sue
cess; it is because he represents the great demo-
cratic principles and policy upon which this
entire convention ls unit; it is because we
believe that with him as a candidate the
democracy OF the union will sweep the country
and establish its principles throughout the
length and breadth of the land that we offer to
the convention as the NOMINEES OF
New Jersey Grover Cleveland. Applause
If any doubt existed in the minds Of the demo-
Gratis OF New Jersey Of his ability to lead the
great democratic hosts TO victory, they would
not present his name to-day. With them the
success of the party and the establishment
of its principles are beyond their love
and admiration for any man. Cheers
We feel certain that every dem
ocratic state, though its preferences may be
for some other distinguished democrat will
give its warm, enthusiastic and earnest support
20 the nominee Of this convention. The man
sands of independent voters whose choice is
governed by their personal conviction that the
candidate will represent principles near to
them, and whose public life and policy gives
assurance that if chosen by the people
they will secure an honest, pure and Oonserv-
alive administration and the great interests of
the country will be encouraged and protected.
The time will come when other distinguished
democrats who have been mentioned in connec-
tion with this nomination will receive that con-
sideration to which the great services they have
rendered their party entitle them, but we stand
to-day in the presence OF the fact that
a majority of the democratic masses
throughout the country, the rank and file, mil
lions of its voters demand the nomination of
Grover Cleveland. Cheers This sentiment is
30 strong and overpowerng that it has affected
and controlled the actions Of delegates who
would otherwise present the name of some dis
tinguished leader OF their own state with
whom they feel victory would be as
sumed and in whom the country would
feel confidence, but the people have spoken and
3avorite sons aud leaders are standing aside in
obedience to their will CHEERS Shall we
listen to the voice OF the democracy of the
union? Shall we place our banner the man
of our choice, the man in whom they believe,
shall we for any consideration of policy or
expediency hesitate to obey their will! Cheers.
have sublime faith in the expression of the
people when it is clear and decisive.
When the question before them is one that has
excited discussion and debate. when it appeals
to their interests and their feelings and calls for
the exercise Of their judgment and they then
say we want this man and we can elect him,
we, their representatives, must not disobey
nor disappoint them. 1t is incumbent

the candidate of their choice. They will
give us their best, their most energetic efforts
20 secure success. lCheersl We confidently
rely upon the loyal and successful work of the
democratic leaders who have advocated other
candidates. We know that in the great state
across the river from New Jersey, now con
trolled by the Democratic party, there is no
democrat who will sEir6 his duty of
making every effort to secure the
convention, Notwithstanding his jId gment may
differ from that OF the majority. The democ-
racy of New York and its kreat leaders whose
efforts and splendid generalship have given

always be true to the great party they repre-
sent; they viii not waver nor will
they rest in the coming canvass
Their grand victories of the past, their natural
and honorable ambition, their unduestioned
democracy will make them arise aud fight as
never before, and with those that they represent
and lead they will march in the great independ-
ent vote aud will again secure for us democratic
victory in New YORK: The grand democrats

give to the cause the great weight Of their or
Ranizations- The laundering echoes OF this
convention announcing the nomination Of
Grover Cleveland will not have died out over
the hills and through the valleys of this land
before you will hear aud see all our

forts for organization and success and
continue their work until victory crowns their
effort. All democrats will fight for victory. and
they will succeed, because the principles OF the
party enuncisted here are for the best interests
OF the country at large and because the pc pie
OF this land havs unquestioned faith that
