held In New York; that was when the
Democrats nominated Seymour In 1858.
Chicago leads ali the rest as q favored
locality. Lincoln was nominated there
in 1850. MeGleilsn "a lses. 4rsnt IL

Roosevelt in 1904. Within the same
period three Democratic conventions
and one Republican have met in ST.
Louis Tiidsn IN 1t1e. Cleveland IN
1883 and Parker In 1894. and Mckinley
IN 1855 were nominated thsra Tho
Republicans have twice selected Phfis-
fsirhjs-when they nominated Qrant
In 1871 and Mckinley in isoe--end
Cfncfnnau has had two conventions
when Hayes Jed the Rspubiio4n ticket
IN 1875 and Hancock the Democratic
