Jas. Young Tonight.

An event that has been looked for
ward to with the greatest imaginable
sagerness is the production BY Mr..
Jas. Young, at the Grand tonight, OF
Rida Louise Johnson's new Eplsy,
Lord Byron"
Great things were predicted for him
by the foremost critics of the country.
when he was seen in Hamlet the in-
depreciation OF the character BY 90
young : man swas thought nothing
short Of phenomenal. He gained equal
renown in other Shakespearean roles.
There were those, however, who con-
sidered Mr.. Young's physique not ro-
bust enough for tragedy parts and so
he decided to devote himself to the
romantic drama. For three years he
has had magnificent training along
this line at Days, that superb school
for stars.
The part OF "Lord Byron" in the
new play is exactly suited both to Mr..
YounE's physical appearances and to
his peculiar genius. He has the rare
beauty OF face and exquisite grace Of
form commonly attributed to the great
poet, and the opportunities afforded
by the play are such as give ample
scope for the hlstrionic gifts hr
Young possesses in such rich abund-
ance.

within one and one-half votes Of nomination

candidate Hannibal Hamlin was chosen. Cassius

AS the time for the Convention Of 1884 an
preached, the country then being In the midst
of the Civil War, President Lincoln was simply
and frankly a candidate for denomination. AS
he put It, it was not good policy ito swap horses
while crossing a stream" Certain "stoo the
war Republicans tried to forestaH his nomina-
ton by holding a convention in Cleveland on
May 81 at which Colonel John c. Fremont was
nominated. But this movement in opposition
to Lincoln came to nothing for at the regular
meeting of the Republican National Convention
held in Baltimore on June I, President Lincoln
received all the votes Of every State excant
those Of Missouri, which. according to instr,,c-
tons. were cast for General u. s Grant Andravs
Johnson was also nominated on the first ballot
receiving 200 votes at first 10 100 for Hannibal
Hamlin, but later, by changes johnson re-
ceived 494 votes. The platform demanded the
utter and complete extirpation Of slavery nv
constitutional amendment and an "uncondi-
tional surrender Of those in rebellion

New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1900-06-18

For the first time they found themselves in
party united by what they deemed a great
moral purpose and not by considerations OF
temporary expediency The party had already
carried most Of the Northern States and had
secured controlling influence in the House Of
Representatives. The extraordinary success
of the new party barely two years old. seemed
to justify them in their expectation Of an i'm
mediate National victory.
THE FIRST CANDIDATE
Much depended upon the choice Of a candi-
date. William H. Seward, while he probably
represented the attitude of the new party on
public questions better than any other man. yet
had seen It's formation with reluctance. He
therefore declined a nomination. Judge John
Mclean, Of Ohio, a strong man, but his
name was also withdrawn. On the informal
ballot Colonel John c. Fremont. OF California
received 359 votes; Judge Mclean, 1856; Charles
Sumner >, and w. H. Seward, 1. Fremont then
became the unanimous candidate.
For Vice-President William L. Dayton of
New-Jersey, received go votes; Abraham Lin
coin, no. Nathaniel p. Banks Of Massachu-
sets 46 and twelve others several each. Day
ton then unanimously elected. The plat
form was almost entirely confined to the sub
ject Of slavery.
The Republicans were not discouraged by
their defeat in 1856. The PRONUNCIATION of the
bred Scott decision only seemed to make its
members feel more keenly the necessity of the
new party, and the debate of stephen a. Douglas
and Abraham Lincoln in 1858 kept the question
of the "irrepressible conflict" ever before the
people and brought the latter into prominence
as a worthy standard bearer
When the Republican National Convention
of 1860 met in Chicago May 16 the reg
uar and seeding Democrats had already
held their conventions. While the latter
were divided and discOrdant and were
evidently unable TO unite platform or
candidate the Republicans were united and
confident In 1859 they had carried every
Northern State except four. California. Oregon.
New-York and Rhode Island. The leading
ddates were William II. Seward. Salmon p.
Chase and Abraham Lincoln.
There were present at the Convention dele
gates from all the free States also from Della
ware. Maryland Virginia. Kentucky Missouri
and Texas and from the Territories OF Kansas,
Nebraska and the District Of Columbia David
Wnmot. Of Pennsylvania. temporary
chairman and George Ashmun. of Massachu-
sets. the permanent president The platform
was largely a reafiirmaton of that adopted in

Somewhere back in Puritan times few sturdy
Legislatures passed law in this State prohibiting
the sale of liquor on Sunday. There is such a law

arrival in town by gently waiting themselves into

morning with the usual slumbering thirst, but

HISTORY.

The Republican party first appeared as
National organization in 1856. While its origins
date back to much earlier period, yet
definite movement It may be traced to February
20, 1854, when a meeting was held in
Ripon, Wis. That gathering was called to-
gether by Major Alvan Z. Bovay, who had
made a canvass Of his friends and neighbors
A second meeting held March 20 when
resolutions were adopted declaring that If the
Nebraska bill were passed they would throw
all old parties to the winds and organize new
party on the sole issue Of the non-extension of
slavery" Even at this second meeting Major
Bovay proposed the name Republican" as the
appellation Of the party. though it was not
definitely adopted until some time afterward
little later a mass State Convention met at
Jackson, Mich. and In July State conventions
were held in Vermont. Wisconsin. Ohio and
Michigan. A Republican organization was not
effected in many States Of the North in 1854 but
the antI-Nebraska party for so it was some
times called under many names and with vari-
Gus forms OF fusion had many successes at the
polls.
