Detroit, Mich, July 3O.-While
the younger element of the Dem
ocrats in attendance on the state
convention are busy shouting for
their respective choices forplaces
on the ticket, the old wheel horses
of the party are quietly pursuing
a button-hole campaign in the in
terest Of harmony. They believe
that six years has had the effect
of healing the differences that
divided the party in '96 and that
the so-called split is now more
apparent than real. In the hotel
lobbies and on the streets as we'll
as in the caucus rooms there are
to be heard expressions of opin-
ion full of confidence and hope
that a united democracy, taking
advantage of the disaffection Of
the anti>B Bliss Republicans. can
elect governor and other state
officers of Michigan in November
next. The confidence felt in the
situation by these party leaders
is strengthened by the large at
tendance on the convention and
the extraordinary enthusiasm
manifested. The advance guard
Of delegates arrived last evening

tors wearing convention badges

every nook and corner of the

When Joseph engineered the first corn

When Edward Payson Hammond the

him in particular.
A crown of glory awaited any revivalist
who could win TO the heavenly way John
Marshall. the Galesburg tailor. whose store

orally conceded that OX-Horns Marshall,
when he was properly loaded and carefully

could attend to any nine men of the Vicin-

were his crudely improvised heraldic device,
were acknowledged to be no more tnan
justly typical of his strength and OF his
prowess in such chickering's as the Illinois
