Cnlcago, July 1O.-William Jen-
nings Bryan, Of Nebraska. the unclas-
sic featured orator from the plains Of
the Platte, swept the convention of its
1eet to-day and was nominated for pres
ldent on the fifth ballot.
Political history furnishes no prece-
den, for to-day's proceedings in the col
iseum, either as a great spectacular
SHOW or as the result of the del0era-
tons Of the convntion Of q great polii-
cal party.
Bryan is but S6 years old. younger
by ten years than any man ever nomi-
mated for the chief magisracy Of the
American republic. He came like a
young LOchinvar out of the west which
has never before nominated a presiden-
tial candidate, to WOO ,he bride for
whose hand the grandest caeftains have
been suitors.
His name was barely mentioned in the
preliminary skirmishes.
Four days ago when the convention
met. he was not entered in the lists.
But yesterday he made an imprisoned
speech and stirred The convention to
frenzy by his eloqunce. That speech

Of weeks and months, for Other aspi-
rants for the honor
The cause Of silver was uppermost in
the minds of the delegates when they
assembled here. For the cause they de-
liberately placed the eastern wing Of
she party on the altar Now when the
convention is coldly analysed, it is seen
that the support Of Bland and Bo'as as
candidates was never solidly founded.
1t was only as the representatives Of the
issue that they rallied delegates to their
standards, and even after many of them
had attached themselves 10 the fortunes
of one or the other of the candidates.
they appeared restless and in an In
s,inctive way to be casing about for a

their new creed would ALLEVIATE the east

nomination then. the convention would
have been stampeded, as il was to-day.
Some Of the grey haired leaders saw and
feared it.
Last night. when he was placed in
nomination. those who thought they had
found their candidate. were confirmed in
their opinion. Tae idea which George
