defeat might te escaped If republicans
were to intimate their over confidence or

Mr.. Cleveland was the candidate
whose nomination against President
Harrison involved constant reminder
OF defeat He was the one candidate
whom great numbers of democrats had
declared they would not support If nom
mated a third time He was the one
candidate whom alliance democrats had
determined to defeat, and was also the
most assailabe of all candidates in
manufacturing and wool growing ates
on account Of his tariff record. The
convention loaded him down with a
platform which ought o be fatal TO a..
candidate. and damaged his chances
further by putting on the ticket with
him one whose greenback and civil ser

the democrats could not have done
more than they actually did to open the
way to republican victory
To some other respects Mr.. Cieyelan

From Mr. Cockran's Speech in the democratic
national convention
/ believe it was the distinguished gen
tleman from Massachusetts, Gen Col
Inns. who declared there was no demo
crat ~ this union that would vote
against that ticket; but there are behind
him two heroes whose dseds have not
escaped the attention of history, two
heroes who have led the union armies TO
victory and who have never made faces
at the vanquished foe, and they tell you
here that the soldier vote of the state Of
New York, OF whom there are 5000 at
least democratic will not support the
domination Of Mr. Cleveland, and did
not support itin 1888.
Gen. Sickles rose in his place among
the New York delegation and said mo,
no never There we're three cheers
and misses heard about the ball and 10
the galleries. !
Mr. Cochran, proceeding, said II u
wise to antaRonize that vote, TO antag-
onize it without reason. to az tagolize y
blindly, detiantly. recklessly! what e
the excuse! One, that we can get TINS

yeution, from the experience Of every
democrat who has carried New YORK
and nl democrat has failed 81 DC u ~

that you cannot get tie mna .wump vote
without driving away 1000 democratic
