GENERAL ADLAI E. STEVENSON.
do 1t. The people are ready for a change
and they want to see return to gov
ernment by the people-the old Jeifer-
eonian Democracy"
Thanks for Congratulations.
"Win the campaign open early"
"Well, theoretically the campaign is
already opened; but practically | don't
think 1t will begin before September"
General Stevenson was III receipt of
90 many congratulatory kilograms that
he found it impossible to reply to all Of
them. He accordingly expressed Il de-
sire that the following should be taken
as his reply to all his well wishers:
II wish to express my thanks to all
these kindly greetings. and l express
them through the press because it would
be impossible, from physical stand
point, to acknowledge every one per-
sonally."
General Stevenson left for his home at
Bloomington last evening and will re-
main there until the campaign opens.
Collins Scheme Popular.
There are indications that the propo-
Gition 30 warmly urged by Hon. Patrick
A. Collins, of Massachusetts,, that the
future conventions shall contain ar
vangements only for delegates, represent
she national committee, will be acted
on favorably, and the future Demo-
cratic national conventions may be res
eued from the domination of the gal
1sries, and become deliberate bodies.
No more eloquent argument to the ma
eional committee could have been af-
1orded than in the experience of the
delegates in the last three days of this
convention. With nearly 200 people
ON the floor and in the gallery it has been
impossible at any time for the most stem
hprian voice to mako itself heard from
the stage, and as consequence the i'm
Ierious demands from the gallery to
&peak louder, and the cheers and counter
cheers and Kisses and counter hisses
whenever the remarks of orators did not
happen to meet the fastidious views of
certain of the spectators finally became
unendurable TO the delegates.
The OSerbcaring Police.
And then, too, there is disposition
70 rebel against the police interference
which seems to be incidental to these
conventions. The officers Of the law on
this occasion. instead of devoting their
attention to the unruly galleries,
crowded upon the floor and elbowed the
delegates in the general desire to hear
what was going on. At all times there
j
Gront Of the speakers stand, and in or
der to show the necessity Of their pres
snce there they frequently demanded of
delegates some evidence of their official
character.
The committee appointed by the Dem
ocratic national convention to notify the
nominees OF their selection has selected
July II as the date on which the can
didates will be notified. Congressman
w. l.. Wilson, of West Virginia, has
been made chairman of the committee.
BE says the committee will visit Mr.
Cleveland either at his summer villa
ht Buzzards Bay, or perhaps in New
York city if ii is arranged, aud formally
notify him Of his nomination. Then the
committee will go at once to General
Stevensons home in Bloomington, Hls,
and convey the information OF his selec-
tion as vice president TO him.
Tammany Support for Cleveland.
! Richard Croker pledges the Tam
many vote to Cleveland. Speaking of
Me ticket he saws: 1--WE will support
cleveland just as heartily as we would
have supported Hill. We are Democrats,
and when we are for man we are for
him. Why should any one doubt cur
loyalty to the ticketF' "The nomina.
Eon OF Stevenson pleases us,n said Lien
tenant Governor Sheehan. "We favor
him because he is good Democrat.
When he was first assistant postmaster
general he was for turning out every
Republican and putting Democrat in
his place. We like that kind of a man.
The New York delegation will so home
DO work loyalty for the ticket, and &c
