| Gresham. There seemed no doubt that
among those wildly cheering enthusiasts
were majority OF the delegates, wheth-
er their enthusiasm was an evidence OF
their enthusiasm for Gresham or not
Mr.. Brown of Massachusetts wanted
special privileges to none given by the
convention. Any one would take the
nomination il it were rendered unani-
mously. He assailed the galleries for
| three Gresham cheers, and a scene or
wild confusion followed.
Vandervoort of Nebraska moved to adj
journ after the nominating speeches un-
| til 8 o'clock, and asked that the nomi-
mating speeches be postponed until the
evening session. BY unanimous consent
the motion to adjourn prevailed.
On the opening OF the evening session
! the resolutions committee reported n
supplement to the platform, after which
the following telegram, which had just
been received from Judge Gresham, was
| read:
J. b. Weaver, Ignatius Donnelly Ben Terrell,
| John w. Hays:
have Just returned and find your dispatch
OF the lst. | must stand by my dispatch to Mr..
Orr of the I'd. Accept my grateful acknowl-
edgments. W. q. GRESHAM
That settled it. Judge Gresham s
friends now gave up their efforts. The
roll-call OF States was announced for
the nomination of candidates for Presi-
dent.
The first State, Alabama, was scarcely
called, when j. S. Manning of that State
arose and promptly placed in nomination
a man "the mention OF whose name
creates such enthusiasm as was never
heard in our State. 1t has been said
he was an old war-hor5e, but say he is
good for q thousand campaigns yet to
come"
"Who is her" shouted voice.
Gen. James b. Weaver of Iowa. "
| Prolonged cheers.
The place of Colorado was yielded to
Col. S. +. Norton, of Illinois, who
placed Senator Kyle OF South Dakota,
in nomination. A Connecticut delegate
presented Gen. James Field, of Virginia.
Applause Florida delegate Sec
onded the nomination of Gen. Weaver.
L. w, Wimber.ey, OF Georgia, seconded
the nomination of Senator Kyle.
Stephen III. Bashor, of Illinois, named
Senator Van Wyck, Of Nebraska. The
mention of Van Wyck's name aroused
some of the liveliest cheering of the
evening John H. Borgeman, of Indi-
! ana, a one-legged soldier, seconded the
nomination of Gen. James b. Weaver.
Prof. c. Vincent, of Indiana, seconded
Kyle's nomination, and another Indi-
ana delegate jumped to his feet and
said one-half of the delegation was for
Van Wyck.

be the situation of the Democrat elected
this fall if that calamity is TO happen.
Having full power he and his party will
be compelled TO use it to the full limit
in effecting the spoliation OF Northern
labor and industries III the supposed in
terest Of the cotton South. Protection
will then be attacked as wolves attack
lambs. The destruction Of manhood
suffrage will be made more complete,
and the violation Of the laws and the
Constitution made more systematic and
more thorough. The election laws will
6e so changed that the Republican party
cannot secure power again in IA quarter
of a century. No matter what maiori-
ties the Republican party may get and
no matter how the people may rally to
its support in the effort to stop the
spOliation Of their labor and their in
dustries, it will be def ated in conse-
quence of Democratic Legislation en-
acted to facilitate corruption of the suf-
frage, false counting and the making of
false returns. If the Republican party
is ever to make a fight for its life, it
will be this fall.

PRESIDENT HARRISON is far

Mondays Meeting.

In accordance with the early training
of nine tenths of the delegates, they
were in their places early Monday morn
ing, and Temporary Chairman Elling-
ton, sharply on the minute called the
convention TO order and introduced the
Rev. w. McCready, who offered prayer.
ts-at-arms were appointed to
control over-epthusiastic delegates in
each State and the Committee on Per-
manent Organization announced forper-
manent Chairman III. l.. Loucks OF

George Wilson of Michigan, q. w. Dem

was also long list of Vice Chairmen,
each State being represented in the dis
tribution of this honor. The report was
unanimously adopted.
1t was picturesque spectacle when
Permanent Chairman Loucks, standing
firmly on his one leg and swinging n
crutch at arms length, waved the great
assemblage to order. His speech as it
progressed was a surprise, and ELECTED
cheers at every few words.
new gavel, announced as coming by
permission of the owner from timber on
the first homestead entry in the United
States, was at this moment presented to
the Chairman. He raped it vigorously
on the desk amid laughter caused by n
declaration that this gavel. unlike the
one used at IA recent national conven-
ton, had not been stolen, and that the
independent Party did not require to
steal either its thunder or its noise.
Gen William j. Armstrong, Inspector
General of Consuls under Grant, and
Mrs. Emery, of Michigan. each made
speeches of considerable length.
The Committee on Rules reported the
new-fangled method of voting for first
and second choices, but the delegates
fell uIon it almost to n man. Wander
WORT of Nebraska finally moved that
the convention be allowed to vote for
any man it chose SO long as he remained

WHAT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY
MUST DO THIS FALL.
Democrats Once I'm Power VIII He N For
midable Foe-The Issue Welcomed by
All Republicans s-The "Deadly Policy of
Reciprocity"
Importance ot the Issue.

Democrats are fond of pointing to the
Cleveland administration as proof that a
member OF their party may be put in
the presidential chair without Mexican
izing the country and raising general
sheol. That is true when there is u
Republican senate TO hold him level.
Cleveland was tin this way so COM
pletely handicapped during his term
that he could d. comparatively little
harm. His admins ration threatened
and fumed, and demanded such things
as the complete stoppage Of silver COIN
age, the retirement and cancellation of
the greenbacks and the destruction of
the gold and silver certificates, together
with reduction OF the tariff that would
have cut Northern labor to the bone
But fortunately Republican senate
stood between the Cleveland admins
tration and the accomplishments OF its
desires. II was virtually without power
to do anything but divide the spoils
The celebrity and enthusiasm displayed
in ousting Union men and appointing
eX-rebel men TO Office showed how the
Cleveland administration worked in the
one field where its hands were free.
But if the Democracy should carry the
election this fall no such period OF in
nocuous desuetude" as prevailed from
1885 to 1889 could be expected. A vic
tory this fall would give the Democracy
both branches OF Congress as we'll as
the Presidency. They could proceed
without let or hindrance to carry out all
their policies. Once armed with COM
plete power there would be a dropping
OF masks and such display of Demo-
cratic purposes as has not been seen in
twenty-five years. If Cleveland goes
into the White House next March he
will not be hampered as he was before,
when his term was as powerless to en-

DR.. J. II. Musser, of Lampeter, told a
remarkable story to number of the
members of the Lancaster County Medi-
cal society at the annual dinner on
Thursday. 1t was nothing more nor
less than the assertion that Mr.. John
EshIeman, the we'll known miller of
West Lampeter township, has a rooster
that lays eggs. When it first became
suspected that this rooster was usurp-
ing the rights which were previously
supposed to belong exclusively to the
hens-in other words, when it became
suspected that he was laying eggs-he
was penned mp and watched. No one
had access to him but the family, and
consequently no trick could be played
upon them. He has thus far laid twenty
seven eggs, nine of them in three days.

The Use of the Knout in Russia.

''Forty stripes the judge may give the
culprit and not exceed" says Deuter-
onomy; and st. Paul says, "Of the Jews
five times received l forty stripes save
one" In those olden times, before the
religion of love and mercy had dawned
upon the world, the law of Moses de-
creed that forty was the greatest num-
Der of stripes that should ever be per-
Missile under any circumstances and
for the worst crimes. But in Christian
Russia they are not bound by any such
law, and nothing is there to prevent the
british cruelty of the authorities of that
country to scourge man to death. And
the worst feature of the proceeding is
that the cruelty is treated by the upper
classes, and more particularly by the
women, as pastime which it would be
great loss to forego.
A soldier on duty at the powder maya
zine of the fortress of Kallish, in west
ern Russia, had fallen asleep and was
sentenced to receive 200 strokes with the
knout The place and the time of the
punishment was fixed, and the officers
wives and daughters of the garrison
were invited to witness the spectacle,
and they did not fail to be present in
full numbers. At the fiftieth stroke the
poor victim commenced groaning pite-
ously, but soon ceased, and before half
the number of strokes was given the
body lay motionless-stiff, as if dead.
A soldier who poured water over the
victims face was reprimanded by the
executioner, The body was then taken
to the hospital The poor fellow leaves
a wife and children.-Chicago Herald
