DEFEAT OF TILDEN
The adroit sleight of hand work of
William c. Whitney, laboring in the
interests Of his father-inlaw, Henry
B. Payne of Ohio, alone prevented the
denomination of TiIden in the Demo-
cratic national convention held on
June 2. 1880. at Cincinnati. Whitney's
efforts, however, bore no reward, for
he met opposition where he did not ex-
pect to find it, and that was in the
Ohio delegation, which refused to pre-
SEM Payne's name unanimously, With
Tiiden out of the race and Payne's can
didacy strangled at birth. the nominal

but again the unexpected befell. Dan

success, and after three days struggle
all three were put aside and the nomi-
nation given to Polk, who had aspired
to nothing higher than the vice presi-

closest friend, was the conventions
choice for second place on III ticket,
but his declination to accept led TO b
selection of George NJ. Dallas Of Penn

A dark horse won In the Democratic
national convention held at Baltimore
on June !, 1852
On the thirty-ffth ballot fifteen votes
were east for Franklin Pierce OF New
Hampshire. Pierce up to that time
had not been publicly mentioned as a
candidate, but months before it had
been planned by Caleb Cushing. Ben
jamin +. Butler and other New Eng
land politicians. In anticipation OF a
deadlock at Baltimore, to spring his
name at the critical moment and trust
to a stampede to insure his nomination.
This plan was rewarded with success.
Pierce's vote steadily increased till the
forty-ninth and last ballot, when the
convention gave him 2S2 votes. with
only six scattering.
6ucHANAN's NOMINATION
The Democratic national convention
held in Cincinnati on June 2, 1856,
lasted four days. The nomination was
contested for by President Pierce,
Buchanan and Douglas. The part
Pierce and Douglas had taken in the
repeal of the Missouri compromise
weighed against them. while Buchanan,
who had been put of the country for
several years as minister to England.
had kept aloof from the disputes that
were disrupting his party. Moreover.
it was urged in his behalf that he
could carry the admittedly doubtful
state of Pennsylvania. He led in ey-
cry ballot to the sixteenth, when he re-
ceiyed 16S votes to 121 for Douglas and
six scattering. Then Douglas ended
the battle by ~telegraphing that as
Buchanan was clearly the choice of the
majority of the delegates he should be
given the necessary two-thirds vote.
The unexpected happened in the
Democratic national convention which
met in New York on July A, 1868.
Months before the convention assem-
bled it had been decided by Horatio
Seymour and other Democratic leaders
that salmon p. Chase. who had be-
come estranged from the Republican
party, should be nominated for presi-
dent. and save for one mans craft
this plan would ave been carried into
execution. That nan was Samuel j.
Tilden. who decided that the candidacy
of Chase would spell defeat. Instead.
he planned with subtle strategy to
nominate Seymour. 1t had been ar
ranged that Seymour. who had been
chosen chairman of the convention.

Champ Clark and Woodrow Wilson
have shown up biggest in the prelim-

either one will receive favor at the
hands of the majority of delegates.
Still, these same delegates might
swerve without warning over to Har-
mon, Underwood or Marshall. Per-
haps the Democrats will even come

The annexation of Texas. however,
was the burning issue OF the hour, and
