Inevitable the Times SAYS: "Since tho
delegates began to gather at Chicago IL has
become more and more evident hourly that
the tide OF party sentiment in favor OF Cleve-
lands nomination would prove Irresistible.
Delegates from all parts of the country knew
that Cleveland was the choice Of the people
and that the opposition to him came only
from few bolting politicians whose entire
argument was the threat that the peoples
choice could not be elected because their fol-
lowers in New York would not support him.
But IL is evident that the resistance
Is giving way at Chivago and that the voice
of the people has been heard and will DO
obeyed.n
Only n Genuine Democrat Can Win.
The Sun says editor:aly: "nere in New
York the great battle Is TO be fought and
won or lost and, according to all probabili-
ties, as the state OF, New York goes, so goes
the union; and uuquestionably the vote of
this city will settle the question whether the
electoral votes of the state shall be cast for a
democrat or for Benjamin Harrison for presi-
dent. The contes OF the great democratic
limo will be held by the democracy of New
York, and the brunt of the fighting must fall
upon the democrats OF this city. Give the
democrats of New York genuine democrat
for a leader, and tho republican enemy will
not be able to stand up against it in the
shock of the coming contest. 1t will force
the fighting all along the line, aud its victo-
ries Of tho past will be triflipg successes as
compared WIN tne triumph IL VIII WIN
in November. The election will be carried
not by so, 900 or go 600 but by 100 900 majority,
and consequently the state and the union
will be the prize OF the democracy for a
quarter of a century to come. Turn this
spleudldly organized and superbly disci-
plined host over to mugwump leadership,
and the whole tails into disorder. 1t be.
comes disheartene1. Instead of consolidated
aud enthusiastic forces, there will remain a
confused and struggling force, with raw
fnt 70 ,e,.;,
cries and watchwords. 1t is to be glorious
season of contest aud victory, or silly sea-
son Of sham fighting and defeat. The New
York democracy awaits from Chicago the
call TO battle"
Cleveland and silver.
In another editorial the Sun SAYS: "For
the last time before tie vote, the democrats
of the west who want to secure fair show
for their ideas respecting free coinage of sill
yer should glance at the silver platform on
which Grover Cleveland will stand If nomi-
mated tomorrow. He will stand upon his
declaration contained IN letter written on
February "a, 1885. BE will stand upon the
further declaration contained in his letter OF
February 10, 1891. He will stand and he
will act on his own platform, not on the
platform of the convention of the democratic
party. In his crusade against the silver in
terests he will repudiate the convention's
platform as to silver just as ho repudiated
| the platform Of the convention Of 1854, when
| he began his crusade for free trade"
The Sun, although the champion OF Hill,
| has this head on its Chicago advices
"Cleveland Leading;'' "Indications that
He Will Receive the he.Nomination."
Hills Forlorn Hope.
The World says edltorially: "The New
| York delegation to Chicago tied itself with {
| resolution to support Senator Hill so long 8,
| he should be a candidate for the presidency
Senator Hill is not a candidate, but is simply
holding the delegation together as mean:
| of beating Mr.. Cleveland, which IS now {
forlorn and futile hope. The nomination O.
| Mr.. Hill has long been seen to be wholly i'm
| probable. 1t is now Known to be utterly lm
| possible. Why should the New York dele
| cation lend its effort - thwart the wish o
the democracy OF the natlon and to defeat tn
one New Yorker who can be nominated
| This is not democratic. 1t is not good poll
tics. The claim thai Nr. Cleveland canuo
carry New York l. sn-founded. He cal
carry it II any democrst can. He is stronge
il this state than: any other man who
| named"
