walk and the swing of his arms and head.
He is a grown-up Dan Lamont in these
particulars
MI. Gorman represents the smooth and
the bland, while Whitney is blunt yet kind,
and his concessions are in matters of fact
instead of compliments. The poor rough
fellows about Tammany Hall he knows
have dropped into trap, and he is going to
let them out of the cellar, after awhile, by
Lifting up the trap door. The better class
OF Southern and Western men he meets
with propositions honorable in form and
without flourish. In this convention he
carried, if possible more honors than Cleve-
land himself He has solicited no praise,
knows how immaterial are hurrahs, and is
OF the same race stock as Cleveland, a
Granite Yankee, with some New York diff
| ferentials
Whitney's Way an Original One.
1t has been Whitney's fortune to play a
| gentler part than Manning's, who folded
his arms and screwed the unit rule down
upon an unwilling minority. This time the
minority has the unit rule, and New York
is held to HILL Whitney's method of deal
| ing with Hill has been to melt him away
until, when his delegation looks around, 1t
beholds him not, for he seems to have been
| translated, like Enoch. The dexterity of
Whitney's work has been like his mechan-
icai kinsman. Just as in 1884 Manning
played with Indiana and shut old Thurman
out, who thought he was going to be Presi-
dent, and finally gave the Vice Presidency
to Hendricks, who rather disdained it, so
this time Whitney extinguished Voorhees,
aud made him an orator to nominate Cleve-
land, though Mr.. Voorhees, was one of the
manufacturers of Speaker Crisp as the anti
Cleveland candidate Dan Manning said:
81 don't mind to make Indiana eat a leek
and supply q Vice President when she
thought she was entitled to anything, so
badly had we beat her.
Gray has meekly been the instrument to
lay out the Voorhees, part of the Indiana
delegation. They make him Vice Presf-
dent, perhaps, and when Indiana reels, down
goes Maryland, which came here rotten.
Why Maryland Dropped German.
The fight in that State was between the
Baltimore Sun, which has swung over to
the Cowanites and TO tickle Wallace and
Mr. Gorman's own satellites; he selected |
delegation, but they knew better than to 90 |
to Maryland again if their vote could have |
nominated Cleveland and would not do it.
When German pulled out of the contest |
the whole South felt that it had been be- |
trayed and Tammany Hall as well Even |
as intelligent man as Roosevelt said to me
Sunday night: "Well, why not German 2"
Gorman's withdrawal had no significance.
Illinois, under old General Palmer's leader
ship, breasted the Boies movement, and on
the one side arrested the Morrison move
ment, instantly dazed Ohio and devastated
Indiana Morrison lives nearly opposite
ST. Louis, and the anti-Clevelandites of
Missouri undertook to make division on
his name, which was checkmated by the
Elliott Shepard of the Missouri press, Gen.
eral, Colonel or Major Jones The evil day
has come upon the Democracy, as it began
when the newspaper press was superior to
its orators and first families.
All the States Not UngratefuI.
The States which furnished Cabinet Min
listers to Cleveland have been the rock fort
resses of his revival-W1sconsin, Michi-
gan, New York and Massachusetts. He put
Lamar in his Cabinet from Mississippi, and
that State has been true to him. The Sem
ators from the South, such as Morgan,
Pugh, Daniel, Barbour, Evans, Hanson
the Arkansas men, whoever they are-the
Georgia Senators, and the Kentucky Sem
ators are hors du combat. Carlisle's cam
paign has been as ineffective as Morrison's, |
his old chum, thoug h the latter went early
over to Cleveland.
Some time ago Mr.. Hanson, of Georgia,
who has a large cotton mandatory at
Macon, said to me: ''Our Southern Repre-
in Congress and in the Senate
live in fools paradise" By this he meant |
that they thought themselves much larger !
than they were. The modest men of the
South, like General Herbert, of Alabama,
who tells me that this is the first National
he ever attended, and Wilson,
of West Virginia, who has been President ]
Of the university of that State, fell behind {
he public sentiment of the North, which
was for Cleveland, heartily. In Pennsylvania
Pattison is a good pupil of the times. and
Ilthough faint hope existed that he might
De Cleveland's successor in this convention, :
he, like Cleveland, has been elected by Re- !
oublicans each time, or by independent
voters, and he knew that the defeat of
Gle veland insured his own rebuke
Old Elements all Overthrown.
The elements of the Democracy which re-
list the recognition of new men have been
,verthrown at last. Wallace and Black
n Pennsylvania were going to fight the ,
init rule; the New Workers have easily
roked the Pennsylvanians to their car. In ,
Indiana the old Mcdonald element which !
four years ago against Gray's
yetting the Vice Presidency, has lived to ,
zee that former Republican at the tail of +
Jleveland's fame. Palmer, of Illinois, who
las been the Republican Governor of the I
State, easily maintains his superiority over I
he old type. The conclusion of the con- v
7ention is to complete the humiliation of
Hall, who now wonder that they !
,ver got into their present dilemma. S
If Whitney's strategy goes so far as to
,ring up the convention when Illinois and q
indiana are reached, and prevent the call @
ng of the State of New York at all, the T
ecord will seem that New York never r
opposed Cleveland This appears to be the F
Ian, and to stampede the convention one v
ouIth of the way down the roll, make
;ieveland's nomination unanimous, and i
hen neither Iowa nor New York will be '
allied, unless they make their show pre-
ious to the roll call, when nominations are p
n order. GATH.
