The Nomination Celebrated.

Paterson, N.J., June 1S.-Mr. Hobarts nomination at St. Louis was celebrated | here, his home, tonight with parades
 on foot and trolley cars. Hundreds of
 women on bicycles joined in the jolli- l fication and cheered when passing the
 Hobart mansion on Carroll street. At 10:30 o'clock tonight ten trolley cars,
 crowded with enthusiastic citizens. went over two of the lines for which the can- didate for vice president is president. Much of the stock of fireworks for the Fourth of July was burned in honor of MT. Hobarts nomination.
 | Senator Thurston in seconding the ! nomination of Major Mckinley said in part as follows:
 MT. Chairman and Gentlemen of the 1 Convention: This is the year of the people. They are conscious of their power; they are | tenacious of their rights; they are su-
 prene in this conventions; they are cer- l tain of victory now in November. Illty Ddfc II dtlltd Lllc lSout u lllid
 campaign. What is it? Money? Yes, | money! Not that which is coined for | the mine owner at the mint or clipped | by the coupon cutter from the bond, but that which is created by American
 muscle on the farms and in the facto- 1 ries. The western mountains clamor for silver and the eastern seashore | cries for gold, but the millions ask for | work-an opportunity to labor and to | live.
 | The prosperity of a ration is in, the | employment of it's people, and thank God the electors of the United States know this great economic truth at last. The republican party does not stand for Nevada or New York alone, but for 1 both; not for one state, but for all. It's platform is as broad as the land, as national as the flag. Republicans are definitely committed to sound currency, but they believe that in a government of the people the welfare of men is par- amount to the interests of money. Their shibboleth for this campaign is PROTECTION" From the vantage ground of their own selection they can-
 not be stampeded by Wall street panics 1 or free coinage cyclones Reports of international complications and rumors
 of war pass them lightly by, they know
 that the real enemy of American pros- perity is free trade, and the best coast
 defence is protective tariff. They do
 not fear the war-like preparations of hut do itc
 manufactures. Their real danger is not from foreign navies carrying guns,
 but from foreign fleets bringing goods. This is the year of the people. They have risen in their might. From ocean to ocean, from lake to gulf, they are
 united as never before. We know their | wishes and are here to register their will. They must not be cheated oe their choice. They know the man best qualified and equipped to fight their battles and to win their victories. His name is in every heart, on every tongue. His nomination is certain, his election sure. His candidacy will
 sweep the country as a prairie is swept by fire. This is the year of the people. In their name, by their authority, I second the nomination of their great champion, William Mckinley Not as a favorite son of any state, but as the favorite son of the United States Not as concession to Ohio, but as an ada ed honor to the nation.
 Under his administration we shall command the respect of the nations of the earth, the American flag will never
 be hauled down, the rights of American citizenship will be enforced, abundant revenues provided, foreign merchant disc will remain abroad, our gold be
 kept at home, American institutions
 will be cherished and upheld, all gov- ernmeRtal obligations scrupulously
 kept, and on the escutcheon of the re- public will be indelibly engraved the
 American policy, Protection, Reci- n1aeitv and Sound Money.t
