liable. The Illinois Convention was
the last entrenchment Of the anti
Mckinley combination. Its cap
ture leaves no hopeful fighting
ground. Senator Cullom, highly
respected and eminently worthy as
he is, had not been able to hold his
State against the predominant and
irresistible sentiment for the great
leader who typifes to the popular
mind the ideas and principles which
they want embodied in administra-
ton. A candidate for President,
however meritorious in himself, who
lost majority of his State dele
gates could not well remain in the
field, no matter what his state Con-
vention might do. But when that
body follows the district in declar-
ing for the pre-eminent national
candidate, it finally disposes of the
State movement and absorbs 1T in
the great national sweep.

The Mckinley Sweep.

The great popular sentiment for
Governor Mckinley as the standard
bearer of the countrY's return to
Republicanism, prosperity and pro-
gress is becoming altogether resist
less. What was a powerful current
a month ago is now yertible whirl-
wind. Its mighty sweep surprises
even the most sangulne friends of
the Protection leader.
The Illinois Convention is deci-
sive. 1t unanimously lnstructs for
Mckinley. After strenuous
struggle of two days and after a
far defeat on a fair trial the oppo-
nents of instruction gracefully
yielded and joined in giving Nc
Kinley the solid voice and vote of
the State. Bear in mind they were
not opponents CT McKinley-he had
no opponents. They were only
opponents of instructions. They
favored Cullom as a State candidate
for complimentary vote, and then
they were for Mckinley like the rest
But the majority were not for vast
ing any time or any votes on empty
