On the Nomination of Cleveland and His
Prospects of Election.
CHICAGO. June "a. - Ex- Secretary
Whitney, who so ably conducted the
Cleveland campaign, does not express
any surprise at the result of the ballot

is quietly jubilant and feels sure of sac

THE STATE CONVENTION.

The republican State Convention
which assembled In Topeka last
week, WAS in many respect q
remarkable one. Every position on
the State ticket was only filled after
a hard fought battle had been en-
gagged in, and each contest devel-
oped new and distinct phases OF
differences, which were lost sight OF
the moment a nomination was made.
The opposition to Smith combined
on the organization Of the conven-
tion, and on every place on the
ticket with tina single exception OF
governor, but on this position the
followers OF the three leading eandi-
dates stood ty their man, and Mr..
Smith was nominated. While the
contest was spirited, yet when the
convention had finished its work,
the Smith men were happy because
they had got their man, and the
Morrill, and Murdock men felt good
because they had named the rest Of
the ticket. Hence all were satisfied
with the final result.
1t was an enthusiastic, earnest
aud determined gathering Of repub-
licans, who never even in the heat
Of battle, lost sight Of the fact that
the psrty's welfare was at stake,
and that in q large degree shaped
the business OF the convention. The
ticket they make is a strong one
from top to bottom, aud will be
elected, as II should be, in Novem.
ber. Every man on the ticket pos.
sesses qualifications for the office ne
has been nominated for, and while
naming them, due recognition was
given the various classes Of response
bic citizens that constitute the State
Of Kansas.
The platform, while a little
lengthy, touches on questions only
that are being agitated in the State
at this time, and the fact of the re-
publican State convention having
the courage to express their beliefs
in plain English, at such times a
these, speaks we'll for the party, and
is the strongest possible recommend
alton for them to be continued in
power in this state.
The burden OF the discussion on
the female suffrage plank was, that
any respectable minority had a
right to be heard, and as there SEEM
ed TO be quite number Of citizens In
this state who desired that woman
be given the right to vote, it was
only Just to submit it to the people
themselves for a decision. Some
think it win aid the calling OF a
constitutional convention, and
thinking so, favor it on that ground,
while others are conscientiously
supporting it because they think 1t
is right. BE that as it may, it Will
do no hurt to allow the people to
pass on it for themselves.
The republicans of the state have
every reason in the world to be satis-
fled with the result of the conven-
ton, and il proper effort is made
this fall by the men who believe in
Kansas, the entire ticket will be
elected by a safe and sure majority.

Monday was the Fourth Of July.
1t was just year since the glorious
anniversary was with us last, and
unless the Seventh Day Advents
apply . brake the whirligig Of time
will bring It around again In 1856
days. The Fourth Of July is . great
day, and generally q hot one also.
Its greatness is exemplified In the
results Of the movement set on fsot
that day l16 years ago, and its
warmth is typical Of the experience
King George and his legions and
hired men had before they signified
that they had enough. 1t was better
SO, for we wouldn't be much now
had we been tied to the old lsdy's
apron strings all this time.
Some fellows use the Fourth Of
July as an excuse to get drunk, and
they also use every other snniver-
sary the same way. Other fellows
think the day was made TO turn
loose a deluge Of words on q subject
they know nothing about. Usually
they are harmless when elected to
office, but the man who uses his
mouth injudiciously Is q hoodoo.
Small boys think the day was in
vented for the creation Of noise.
We like this when not carried TO
excess. III the noise has plenty Of
variations we can stand 1t all day,
and sit up half the night TO admire
the fireworks. Noise, sulphurous,
corruscating noise is the only safety
vslye the great American boy has,
God bless him. The only person
who hates to see the Fourth OF July
come around is the man who hates
everybody and Is mad at himself
nine-tenths Of the time, and the
balance OF humanity feels the same
toward him the other tenth.
Men differ on politics, religion,
moral questions and what 10 good to
eat, but all Of them vote the Fourth
OF July a good thing, except as
above noted. Some men stick up
their noses and say, "there Is q
terrible sight Of gush on the Fourth
Of July" Well, suppose there is;
what Of it? Gush never hurt any
body and il not outlswed. III men
and boys want to turn loose little or
much gush on the Fourth Of July,
let 'em do ii. 1t IL one Of their born
privileges, one of the inaliensble
rights OF liberty, a. IL were. Some
men hoard up all the gush there Is
In them, and the consequence Is that
by the time they are 80 years old
they are full of gush, and by this
time all the escapes provided by
nature are worthless from long dis
use. Gush turned sour is cynicism,
OF the meanest and sOurest kind. Far
better would il he for such men TO
learn to glish a little once In q while.
So then, il a man gets drunk In
order to show his patriotism, let
him alone. "He that il filthy, let
him be filthy still" And the man
who gushes, let him gush. He can't
hurt anybody in so doing. BY all
means do not abridge the inalienable
right Of the great American boy to
make all the noise on that day he
wants to. Rather encourage him In
it, and teach him to diversity in
this fine as much as possible. The
individual who invents new
variety Of noise for use on the
Fourth Of July renders his country
a valuable service. We have omit
ted to say anything about the girls
and women in this article on pur-
pose. Anyone feeling agrieved
thereat is at liberty to treat Of the
subject in a separate article. This
is all for this time.
