The Democratic nda Bearer Issues
an Address At Once.
BUZzARD's BAY, Mass, June 23.-At
4:30 o'clock this morning Mr.. Cleve-
land, through Governor Russell, sent
from Gray Gables the following state
ment to the press:
81 should certainly be ~chargeable with
dense insensibility if l were not profound
y touched by new proof of the conf
dence and tribute of the great
party to which l belong and whose
mandates claim my loyal obedience. 1 am
confident that our fellow countrymen are
ready to receive with approval the principle
OF true Democracy, and / cannot rid myself
OF the belief that to win success it is very
necessary to persistently and honestly ad-
vocate these principles. Differences of
opinions and judgment in Democratic con-
v~entlons are by no means unwholeSome in
dications, but it is hardly conceivable in
view or the Importance of our success
to the country and to the party
that there should be anywhere among
Democrats any lack of harmonious and
active effort to win in the campaign which
opens before us. have, therefore, no con-
Germ on that subject. 1t will certainly be
my constant endeavor to deserve the sup
port Of every Democrat"
Mr.. Cleveland was terribly tired when

him. Joseph IL. jefferson departed at
4:30 o'clock from Gray Gables.
Mrs. Cleveland retired at 4 o'clock
n when h nominee of the Demo-
cratic party sought his chamber it was
nearly s.
The telegraph bulletins were inter-
spersed with many kindly greetings
and expressions of regard from Mr..
Clevelaud's personal friends. The sun
had risen gloriously and was sending
its beams across upland and field and
water when the dispatch was received
announcing that Mr.. Cleveland had
been chosen to lead the Democracy in
the coming national campaign. Gov.
Russell turned to Mr.. Cleveland as the
dispatch vas received, congratulated
him heartily upon his success and
after a short message had been pre-
pared by Mr.. Cleveland to be sent to
the press, all parties retired,
The wires were again at work early
this morning pouring in c~ongratula-
tions to Mr.. Cleveland, $50 messages
having been received before the tele-
graph operator at Gray Gables had
arisen, and from that time onward
they came in a steady stream. They
were from people in all positions in
OllCldl StdllOH dS well 40 civil me- "a
were received with much satisfaction.
Mr.. Cleveland was again seen this
morning after breakfast by the As
sociated Press representative and
asked if he had any message to send
out concerning the work of the con-
vention. In reply he said; Il have
nothing to say beyond what l have
already given out. The convention
has not vet finished its'laborS and until
it has it seems to me that anything
from me would be out of place and
open to misconstructicn."
On being asked concerning his move
ments to-day, Mr.. Cleveland said: Il
shall stay at home as did yesterday,
where l can be ready to receive the
congratulations of friends, which are
constantly coming in"
This forenoon Governor Russell and
wife, who have been the guests of Mr..
Cleveland and wife, were driven to
Buzzard's Bay station and took the
cars for Boston.
