His Nomination.

Boies at Chicago. This much has been
determined by developments of the last
few days. The silver men have been
busy in their efforts to conciliate aud
bring in line the gold element, AID
have had better success than could
have been expected from the bitterness
with which they at first regarded the
Dubuque conventions actions.
A meeting of the delegation to Chi
eago was held here about two weeks
ago and M. H King, delegate from this
district, was named to extend an ipvi-
tation to the men who four years ago
took charge of the Beies campaign at
Chicago to assume the same task this
year. Mr.. King laid the matter before
the leaders Of four years ago, most of
whom were gold men and had been
tnrned down at Dubuque. He Mas
succeeded to the extent that most of
hem have been brought in line for
Boies. They will go with the Boies
clubs and support Boies. on the ground
that Inc is really not for free silver
monometallism, but according to his
declarations at Dubuque is In favor Of
maintaining the parity Of the two
metals. Judge Kline has gene out for

further this understanding.
