Cleveland, April 5.-Speaking of the
announcement of Admiral Dewey's
name for the presidency Judge e. j.
Blandin said: There is no possibility
of Dewey's being nominated for the
presidency by the Democratic party as
long as Bryan lives and retains sound
mind. Mckinley and Bryan will be the
candidates this year. as in 1896, unless
something unforeseen occurs. am
sorry to see Dewey announce that he is
a candidate, for am sure that no mat
ter who is back of him he cannot be
nominated. 1t is idle to discuss hrs fit
ness for office because he will never
have a ghost of chance of filling the
office as long as Bryan is alive"

Thirty-second Senatorial District goes for
a convention by 1000 to 1880. Returns are
slow coming in, but the indications are
that these figures are not far wrong.
Nansemond is most uncertain, and
figures SO far received give a small ma
jority against a convention, though COM
plete returns may throw the balance the
other way. Suffolk went for convention
by 223.
The precincts heard from in Southamp-

Franklin's vote was almost phenomenal
