Whoever may be nominated by this con-
vention will receive the cordial support,
the enthusiastic advocacy OF the Republic
ans of New York, but in the shifting con
ditions Of our commonwealth Governor
Morton can secure more than the party
strength, and without question in the
coming canvass, no matter whit issues
may arise between now and November
place the Empire State solidly in the Re
publican column.
At the conclusion OF Mr.. Depew speeoh
joseph b. Foraker presented the name OF
william Mckinley for president He said
in substance
ForaIker's speech.
1T would be exceedingly difficult II
not entirely impossible, to exaggerate the
dlsagreeable experiences OF the last four
years.
"The grand aggregate OF the multi
tudinous bad results Of a Democratic ma
tional administration may be summed up
as one stupendous disaster. It has been
disaster, however. not without at least one
redeeming feature. 1t has been fair-no-
body has escaped It. IL has fallen equally
alike upon all sections of our country
and AL Glasses of our people. The Repub-
lioan and the Democrat, the rich and the
poor, the big and the low, have suffered
in common. ldleness and its consequent
poverty and distress have been the re-
wards OF labor; distress and bankruptcy
have overtaken businessi shrunken values
nave dissipated fortunes; deficient reye-
nues have Impoverished the government-
brought about bond issues-and bond syn
dioates have discouraged and scandalized

penalty is however, to be set down one
great compensatory result, 1t has destroy.

1.-The proud columns which swept the
country in triumph in 1892 are broken
and noiseless in 1896. Their boasted prin'
ciples when they came to the test Of a
practical application have proved nothing
| but fallacies, and their groat leaders have
degenereted into warning chieftains OF
petty and irreoonoilable factions. Their
boasted principles when put to tbs test Of
a proper application have proved deiusivc

| vention is but an approaching national
nightmare No man pretends TO be able

I it. and no man Is seeking nomination by

| public trust by proclaiming his willing
| ness to stand upon any platform that
may be adopted. The truth is, the party
that could stand up under the oeium Of
human slavery, opposition TO the war iof
