safe harbor. But as it is, the admins
tration boat is gradually becoming
water-logged, and unless her officers are
better political seamen for the next two
days, the opposition pirates will surely
drive her on the shoals and sink her.
Mckinley and Depew are undoubtedly
able men and possibly good generals;
but in political chicanery, in swift and
sleek work, in the ways of politics that
are dark and devious, they are as infants
beside those old hands at the business
Quay and Platt. Mckinley and Depew
are all that the administration can rely
upon, especially as the so-caIled leaders
of the administration gang have seen
fit to make a SuDaltern of that ableSt
and slIrewdest diplomat on their side
ex-senator Spooner, of Wisconsin.
Spooner should have been placed in
charge of the Harrison campaign from
the beginning, and affairs would have
been in different shape at this critical
juncture. Depew is too nice and too
mealy-mouthed for leadership now
Mckinley is entirely too much wrapped
ND in his own infant boom.

and sent 1t echoing away off to the
furthest corners of the hall. Not an ear
in that grand hall failed to take in the
accents that rolled out laden with tariff
honey, tariff platitudes and tariff per-
versions. OF course Mckinley talked
tariff, just as the cuckoo talks of itself,
and he talked of nothing else. Once he
let the word ''reciprocity" slip from his
lungs and instantly repented it, for the
convention arose and cheered profusely.
He then said nothing more of reciprOc-
ity. but concluded with burst of regu-
latiOn Republican wind-iamming. AS
he ended, the venerable Fred Douglass,
with his white hair standing out like
retired mop, rose up and waved his old
white hat. He succeeded in his object.
The convention yelled for him, and he
was led out on the platform by McKin-
ley and made bow. He did not talk,
but retreated precipitately the moment
he had made his bow.
Henry H. Bingham, chairman of the
committee on rules and order of bust
ness, submitted its report, which had
previously been printed and CIRCULATED.
The convention listened in silence and
the only demonstration was burst of
partisan applause when the rules of the
house of representatives were recom-
mended and the chairman added, -'.the
Fifty-first congress-" which is the late
billion-dollar wonder. Senator Cullom,
Of Illinois. and a,dark horse from South
Carolina, wanted information on the
rules, and Gen. Bingham held little
class for few moments, explaining and
Interpreting the order of business.
After the states that were ready
which Minnesota was not-had named
their members of the national commit
tee, the only really interesting event of
the day occurred. The chair glanced
over the order of business, and calmly
said the next thing in order was nomina-
tions for president. The convention
started. and fierce buzz went around.
Senator Cullom took the floor, and it
was thought by many that he was about
to present the name of Harrison. But
he was only making kick. Mckinley
had evidently gone to sleep, and knew
nothing of the rules he held in his
hands. ingalls, came to the rescue, and
in three words took the matter out of
CullOm's hands and set it right. Read
rule SIX" was all he said. Mckinley
blushed, looked sheepish, and the cpl
sode was over. The convention then
adjourned to IL o'clock this morning.

sion was unintereSting to degree.
There was absolutely nothing to do,and
contrary to the general expectation. not
single orator was called out to enter
tain the crowd ana fire the great Repub-
lican heart. 1t was known all over the
city that the two great committees were
not ready to report. yet notwithstanding
this knowledge, the hall was filled to its
capacity for the first time. The eXpec-
tation must have been general that more
than one session would be held during
the day, for at the centers of ticket dis
tribution the demand for the second
session was greater than that for the
first, and the disgust was general when
it was announced that the body had adj
journed for the day, after listening to
the
characteristic Tariff Fabrications
of the apostle of protection.
Chauncey Depew slept late yesterday
morning after the banquet at st. Paul,
and was an hour late in entering the
hall; as consequence he was the only
man to get greeting. unless it was the
ripple that family went up when the
cOppery face and white head of Fred
Douglass appeared in the center aisle.
Other great men were neglected, pOSSi-
bly, because the seat of Boss Platt was
vacant during the entire proceedings.
Platt probably knew that there would
be nothing of interest, and wisely con-
cluded that he could get along very
well without hearing the trite remarks
of Mr.. Mckinley on what great things
he had done in the way OF tariff. Mr..
Platt was right. The session was very
monOtOnOus. None OF the important
committees were ready to report and
the wheels were blocked.
1t was nearly air hOiir past time when
the dulcet tones of Mr. Fassett requested
the convention to be in order. Bishop
Whipple delivered an impressive appeal
to the throne of grace, and Delegate
Walker, of Nebraska, in voice that
was heard only by select and careless
few, presented Mr.. Fassett with gavel
made from native wood. Subsequently
the gayel was sent to FaSsett'S rooms,
and will be borne home by him as a
souvenir of the occasion.
There was ripple VIXEN the report of
the committee On credentials was called
for. Gen. CoggSwell, of Massachusetts,
the chairman, said they would be ready
before the next day. Senator Spooner
put a few leading questions at the gem
sera relative to the time when the report
might be expected, but elected nothing
but the fact that, as Harrison delegate,
: the general would hurry it up all he
knew how. Then came the report of
the committee on permanent organiza-
ton naming Mckinley as the chairman,
and the convention gave out the ex-
pected yowp over the great apostle of
protection.
McKinley's Talk.
Gov. Mckinley made a most deliberate
speech. He threw power into his voice,
St. Paul daily globe., 1892-06-09

s borne in mind that there are some
eighty seats in contest. the Importance
OF this committee Is at once made plain.
The Blaine men>never once lost sight of
this, While the Harrisonians allowed
themselves To be caught mapping.
This makes the situation. as 1t ap-
peared at midnight last night, readily
comprehensive. Both sides of this
peculiar fight went to bed confident of
victory. But the anti-Harrison end of
il has shade the better of the outlook,
simply through the better generalship.
Before the administration men realize
It, they will have lost their grip. They
are permitting fatal delay. The Oppo-
sltion has communicated with every
district, which, iii spite of its Blaine
sentiment. sent Harrison delegates, and
from THESE districts are now coming In
Geographic demands on the delegations
to stand by the man from Maine. These
are having the expected effect, and each
one is hailed with great joy and duly
exaggerated by the Blaine boomers.
Such tactics will eventually beat Harri-
son, II not properly and promptly met
and offset. He still has the majority of
the delegates, but they are slipping
from him, and every hour of delay may
be measured in loss of strength. His
captains know this. yet seem to be i'm
potent.
The Blaine crowd was, to all outward
seeming, more than ever confident last
night, and Boss Platt had lost much of
the panied and tired look he has worn
since his advent in the Northwest. In
his telegram to the Eastern papers,
