 BOIES OF IOWA.
 Tale of One Who Had Regenerated His
 State.
 Fred B. White of Iowa, one of the most prominent of the jurists of his state, nominated Governor Boies. He said:
 ".Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Convention-I am authorized by the Democratic party of Iowa, to present to this convention for the nomination to the high office of president the name of Horace Boies of our state. I want to assure this convention in advance that this is not a result Of any question of mere local pride nor is it the result of any consideration of the ] question of mere availability.

Knowing as we all do, that the political situation of the country is a grave and ominous one, this conven- ton must not ignore nor evade the re- sponsibility this situation creates which is to give othe American peo- pie a candidate, the mention of whose name, wherever known, will carry with it an overwhelming strength and stand in case of election an unqualified guar antee for entire safety in the man agement of all public affairs, the just settlement of every passing question and the speedy inauguration of vigor- ous reign of exact justice.
 Neither in formulating policy nor in the execution of the same nor yet in presenting an argument upon the mer- it's or demerits of any public question has Governor Boies ever striven in the least degree to create sensation. To his everlasting honor it must be said that in the doing of these things he has never failed to make deep impression This is the ideal test by which the ca pacity of the public man should be judged. This is the highest standard by which statesman's reliability and usefulness should be ascertained and determined.
 "If you select Governor Boies as your candidate and the people ratify your decision in November, we car promise you no pyrotechnical display from the White House during his ad ministration; there will be no rocket: , sent up, the explosion of which fright en the timorous or furnish a subjec for foolish talk for the superficial
 There will be no sensational perform ance on the political trapeze at the ex ecutive mansion while Horace Boie is it's occupant; he will write you n,
 startling messages upon eXcitable pub lie topics; we promise you none o ! these performances, but will tell yo, what we can and do promise you, an ; that is the inauguration and faithfu execution of a policy that will com
 mend itself to every philosophic min
 and be applauded by every sincere pa triot, policy that will be characterize | throughout by the invigorating cours of hard, common sense and be al lss aglow with the everlasting sunshine c noble intentions-a policy the primar
 object of which will be not the creatio . of opportunities for the unnatura u craze of already excessive fortunes ofa 5 avaricious class, but the strict mainte
