indicate that the complexion of the del

for Hill, with German as second choice.
The delegatiOniS uninStructed. but at
the state convention resolutions were
passed expressing sentiment favorable
to Cleveland. The German feeling,
however, is very strong among the del

there is scattering support for Boies

the same liberal treatment from the
Democratic convention accorded the
territory bV the MINNEAPOLIS cGnyen-
ton, and will probably throw
the weight of their influence
to whatever candidate will grant
them six votes. The Connecticut
delegation arrived late last night, en-

ton: Our twelve delegates have not

Cleveland. Connecticut is a strong

Michigan delegates are coming in on

delegation came in last night with the
usual number of shouters, who made
their headquarters resound with the
name of Cleveland. Pennsylvania is
pledged solidly for Mr.. Cleveland, and
Mr.. Harrity says that it will give sixty

the state of Georgia, the state which
eXertS so much influence in the coun-

and opened up headquarters at the

this delegation claim that they will have

Hill, with possibly two exceptions,

us in the South, it is not only question
of devotion to Cleveland, but also a
question of rebellion against Tammany.
The Time Has Come
when Tammany should be taught that
their organization is either Democratic
body or not Democratic body. If
they are Democrats and come to conven-

the decision of the convention, and sup
port the ticket inst the same as all
other good Democrats. In my opinion
