men of the old democratic party; faces
familiar to all. and picture of Clevc-
land had Il prominent place among the
decorations.
The big hall was beautifully adorned
with the national colOrs and here were
huge pictures over the highly elevated
stage of President Cleveland, Samuel J.
Tilden, Messrs. Palmer and Buckner,
the candidates of the party holding he
convention; Andrew Jackson and Thomas
Jefferson. In the center of the stage
decoration was a large picture of the
national democratic party emblem in
this state, full rugged ship. A band
furnished the usual plea for enthusiasm
by playing national airs, the audience
heartily applauding each effort.
The presence upon the stage of men
like Roswell p Flower. w. ID. Bynum,
Charles b. Fairchid, f. +. Anderson,
Robert Greer Monroe, in addition to the
speakers, gave dignity to the affair
that was carried out in the audience. At
first it was quiet but the brief remarks
of Chairman Flower seemed to awaken
those present. for in a moment they were
shouting their approval of the statement
1--WE are not 5O-cent democrats" The
other pointed. but brief. remarks of the
ex-governor were greatly applauded.
The meeting was called to order by
Robert f. Windemand. chairman of the
Syracuse conventions state committee,
who introduced Ex-Governor Flower as
the presiding officer.
Mr.. Flower waited until the hearty re-

New York, Sept. 22-Following is the
text of telegram sent to John Boyd
Thatcher by j. C. Sheehan. Tammany
leader, today:
when the friends of the platform
adopted at Buffalo stood in doubt as to
the propriety of nominating a gentleman
who had previously occupied a position
adverse to the leading tenets of the party
as declared in national convention. the
convention was repeatedly assured by
your representatives that you would
stand fairly and squarely upon the Buff
falo platform, which most emphatically
endorsed the one adopted at Chicago.
in view of your letter to the public
| feel sure that you are not aware of the
pledges then made in your name, and
that once in possession of the facts you
will take the required measures to pre-
vent the qualification of those who press
ed your claims on the convention.
(Signed JOHN c. SHEEHAN."

Peculiar Political rsngle Which Is SerfOzs
as Well as Amusing. ~.
Mr.. Sewall has always lived in Bath.
His wife was also born in Bath Per-
sonally he is a reserved man, not easy
of approach. His appearance is impress
sive. He has two sons-Harold u. and
William D. The latter, the younger,
is associated with his father in busi-
ness. The elder son, ROW about &c years
of age, peculiarly enough of the same
age as the man with whom his father
will go before the people for votes as
the tail end of the ticket, has already
had much more of a public political
career than his father has had.
He was graduated with honors from
Harvard in 1882, and two years later he
was made vice consul at Liverpool by
President Cleveland, as d compliment
to his father, Charles T. Russell being
consul. Shortly afterward he was pro-
NOTED to the consul generalship at
Apia, Samoa. Here, though young and
a novice in diplomacy, ne became very
prominent during the German-English-
American controversy, but Secretary of
State Bayard recalled him, at the re-
quest of President Cleveland, who con-
sidered that his course in the delicate
matter vas more aggressive than safe.
This recall brought about GOODNESS
between Arthur Sewall and President
Cleveland, and possibly was the germ
from which the enlargement recently
eliminated in Mr.. SewalPs declaration
in favor of silver arose.
Soon after Harrison became president
he appointed his Samoan commission to
Berlin, and to show that he held view
of young Sewall's course in Samoa dit
ferent from that of Cleveland, he MADE
the former consul secretary of the
| commission. While in Berlin Mr.. Sewal
was snubbed right and left by the Ger
mans. Herbert Bismarck made IL !
condition, on accepting an invitation t.
one banquet, that Mr.. Sewall be no
presented TO him. On his return h
| America President Harrison further up
held him by appointing him consul a
Samoa again. He held this Office dur
ing the remainder of the republican ad
ministration.
Following this, Mr.. Sewall practices
law. Two years ago he created pc
litical sensation in Maine and much o
New England by leaving the democrati
party and becoming republican. L
so doing he scored President Clevelan
for his policy in regard to affairs i
the Pacific ocean. Since that time h
has been one of the most active reput
licans in Maine. He presided over tn
recent state convention, and even NOR
recently was delegate from Repre-
sentative Dingley's district TO the n
publican convention in st. Louis.
He is certain to take an active PAL
in the campaign this fall. Thus fathe
and son will be arrayed against eac
other politically, not only in Maine, bu

MIR. Arthur Sewall, the democratic
nominee for vice president, is the rich

mated from $2,OoO.OCO to 100000 He
is man known--to the extent that he
is known in the nation-as a man of
business rather than as q man of poll
tics. But while he is not and never has
been politician, and while he has never
sought nor held any public Office, he
has been none the less for many years
power in democratic national councils

for New England to a greater extent,
possibly, than the word and advice of
any other democrat of that section Of

the country. His utterances year ago
In favor of silver have diScredited him
in his own county which is the strong
hold of monometalism, to an extent,
however, and this is shown by the re-
cent selection of d democrat favoring
the gold standard as his successor In the
democratic national committee, of
which he had been member since 1888.
But he is recognized by all who know
him-and they include scores of bust
ness men of San Francisco as well as
scores in New York-as an extremely
able. well-rounded man.
, Mr.. Sewall was born i'm Bath about so
years ago, of stock long prominent
and honored in his state and identified
with the democratic party from its
birth. He inherited capacity for large
business interests, as did also his broth
er Edward, and while yet very young
man, with his brother he assumed the
management of the large ship-building
plant which had been developed by his
father and his grandfather. Through
the combined energies and abilities OF
the two brothers the business grew and
the ships multiplied until, when Amer
lean shipping had reached its heyday'
there were few ports in the world in
which there could not be seen at any
time at the top of lofty mainmast the
navy blue square supporting the white
"S." His brother met his death in New
York city several years ago by fall
over balustrade in a hotel to the cor
ridor below. Mr.. SewalI continued the
business, the son of his brother, samuel

RACE OF sHIPBUILDERs.
What the Sewalls Have Done FOR me
Country's Merchant Marine.

What the SeWalls hhfe Douo LUZ 'AO
Country's Merchant Marine.
No family in America has done more
for the merchant marine than the
Sewall family has. It's list of ships
shows a steady and almost unchecked
line of progress covering period OF IS
wears. Ship after ship has slid from the
Sewall ways" into the Kennebec river,
and the Sewall collection of models,
ancient and modern, is superior to any
thing of the kind in this country.
The Sewall family has always been
democratic, although as family it has
seldom or never sought to control in
any way party action in either munich
nal or state affairs. Twenty years ago
this fall, when Indiana swung into the
democratic column for Tilden, the
Sew-all satisfaction found expression In
the bestowal of the name Indiana
upon one of the largest and finest ships
ever built in the yard, and which was
about ready for the launch.
Arthur Sewall is about the only man
in the country who has persisted in
building ships in the face of what other
builders have considered disaster. Dur
ing the first administration of Cleveland
grass grew in every wooden ship bullc
ing yard on both coasts. But during the
last few years of the eighties Mr.. Sewall
believing that q turn for the better haf
or soon would come, resumed building
and with greater earnestness than eve
before. There followed in quick success
sion four monsters, each representing
a sum beyond $125,OOO. These were th'
Rappahannock, Shenandoah, Susque

averaging about 5000 tons net each, cap
