THE DALLES WEEKLY CHRONICLE, UlIDAY, ' JUNE 1892.
CHICAGO . M03AIC.
. A New Tork I'toovliocy A rilckerlnc
. V -Suspicion Preconcerted Move.
Chicago, June 18. One of the New
ferk phophets declares tbat if New York
lists her thirty-six electoral votes demo
cratic this year the next president is a
democrat, provided he runs well else
where. Also, the man who gets enough
mtM to fmt him will probably be
-elected. '
The flickering suspicion that it may be
a third man after all is apparently turn-
ing into a definite belief in the minds of
eome of the Tammany hosts.
It seems to have been preconcerted
and so arranged that delegates be early
in the field, and from the undue worry-
ment evinced by the huskiness in speech
and nervous twitching of the underlip of
Tammany, as it begs the gentleman
from Syracuse to "make up" and "re
member that they are democrats" that
this arrangement originated in Hills'
camp. The excess of emotion is really
needless. : Can't Tammany feel, in its
prophetic bones, that whoever the nom
inee may be, all good democrats will
pitch in and work for him, anyhow?
And as for the other kinds ot democrats,
when was a political pot-hunter of any
school known to forgo the chance of get
ting at the heaped up trenchers of pat
ronage? Just wait until the thunderous
convention is called to order from its
grand and swelling diapason of "Hill,
Hill, D. B. Hill'
It is obvious that the conflict is to be
one of Cleveland against the field, and it
is obvious also that the key to the situa
tion is in a large measure Ireld by the
'' state of New York and by the great dele
gation which is to represent it. Hence
the early arrival upon the field of a num
ber of the principal members of t he New
York delegation during the last 24 honrs
has been the chief event.
JErory
Candidate Confident
This 'Week.
Chicago. June L'O. the uncertainty
,of Illinois, Kentucky and Indiana, is a
srand factor in the hopes of candidates
now.- Should these three states cast
their ballots for a "favorite son" the
possibilities of Clevelands nomination
wonld be remote from what it is. The
leaders are John M. Palmer for Illinois
Henry Watterson for Kentucky, and
Senator Voothees for Indiana, a strong
team, it must be admitted. Illinois is
for Palmer, Kentucky for Carlisle, and
Indiana for Gray. Delegates are prac-
ticallv free, in those three states, and,
acting as they please, have held a con
ference, but it is not known outside just
how they will cast their 104 votes,
Tammany has let go enough to estab
lish the belief that the empire state will
go for Harrison if Cleveland is nomi
nated. In short, the harmony expected
between the Syracuse and Tammany
factions may never be realized. If Tam
many fails in securing its nominee, its
whole strength will be thrown against
the nominee of the convention. They
mean rule or ruin. These threats do
not terrorize the Cleveland contingent,
who look to the Michigan Gerrymander,
and to the prospects in Kansas, with
confidence ' that "Cleveland can be
elected without Tammany."
But with all these reasonable theories,
Senator Patterson, of Colorado, savs
Cleveland would not . only lose New
York, but almost certainly several
southern states, owing to the alliance's
deep feeling on the coinage question,
and by such loss the democracy would
surely .lose.
If people continue flockicginto Chicago
for the next few days is they have the
past week, it will seem less accurate to
speak of the democratic convention
' present at Chicago than of Chicago pre
sen at the democratic convention. The
city appears to have fairlv lost her
identity in the crowd.
It is worth while for temperance ad
vocates to take notice that in Chicago
the price of beer, such as it is, and pure
water, are now very nearly the same.
Water that is said to be pure,' bearing,
generally, some high-sounding name,
costs ten cents a gallon in ten-gallon
lots. Beer is obtainable by the keg at
the rate of $4 a barrel of thirty-six gal
ions. This makes it cost about eleven
cents a gallon. That pure water should
get 'beyond the financial reach of many
while beer should slip down until it be-
' comes a rival of nature's bevcrago is
unfortunate. It operates against all the
work of. temperance organizations,
: Keeley institutes and so forth, and fur
nishes an easy apology for. the beer
drinking habit. .'"
The Usual Speculations Wigwam
Wrangle Rotten Circns Tent.
Chicago, June "21.- There is no mis
j taking the fact that two-thirds or more
j-of the politicians are confident that ex
president Cleveland will carry off the
prize easily. Pretty much the same
' thing is expected to take place at Chi
cago as was witnessed last week at Min
neapolis and most people here are look
ing for Mr. Clevelands nomination on
the first ballot. . This conclusion has
been reached after consultation with
some of the brightest politicians on the
democratic side of tho senate,.and is due
to the fact that Cleveland will have in
the convention a thoroughly organized
body of friends.
The Hon. John F. Duncombe, who
will present the name of Iowa's noted
governor, the Hon. Horace Boies, to the
Chicago convention, has been identified
with the democratic party of the
Hawkeye state for thirty-seven years,
during which time he has always been
found laboring for the cause of his party.
The Boies boom will receive' a whoop
and a yell from the COO members of the
Cedar Rapids Jeffersonian club. One
hundred and fifty of the' Kansas - City
Young men's democratic club and sev
eral other western clubs.
Yesterday there were over" lf,000
marching club men seeking their head
quarters from incoming trains. And
this is not one-third of the strength of
the organized clubs expected. The
Grand Pacific will resound with cheers
for Cleveland; Hills praises will be sung
at the Auditory ; Boies' name will stir
the echoes of the Palmer house, and
Palmer's boom, if it appears at all,
will revolve around the Sherman house.
The Indiana - delegates bring with
them a promising boom for ex -Governor
Gray.
Senator John M. Palmer is nut push
ing nunseii lor ine iioraiuawoii. nc
says that he does not think it material
Illinois,
he
presidency. The letter bears date of
June 7. and is written to exonerate ex
Congressman Frank Lawler from
charges of disloyalty in the senatorialJ
contest when the 101 went on record in
Springfield.
The Wigwam muddle, because of
strikes, storms, etc., caused the local
committee to secure a circus canvas
from Cincinnati. It was rented for
$300, payinglflOOdown, and was brought
in by express at a cost of ?0. liefore
it was unloaded ironi tne uray it
was seen to be rotten. It was taken
back to the railroad and billed back as
freight, "charges collect." This, how
ever, had an enect to oruig me wigwam
committee and the National committee
together.
So far as the attainment of the presi
dency is concerned, Mr. David 15. Hill
stands about even chances with Andrew
Jackson. To be sure Andrew Jackson is
dead. But that makes the betting on
Hill no safer. '
It is evident that several dark horses
are beginning to feel their oats. One of
the Illinois dark horses is kicking his
stall like a regular man-eater.
There is a soulfulness about the way
in which Gov. Bois saws wood that is
simply captivating. A big wood-pile
speaks louder than stump eloquence.
Mr. Gray of Indiana is not going to let
his features be concealed from public
gaze by his blushes.
John M. Palmer looks and acts and
talks much like a man who has a cinch
on something in the future.
There is trouble to pay among the
democrats of Ohio, and there is no pitah
bot. The same faction that beat Camp
bell last fall, is greedy for gore, and
Campbell goeth forth like a young David
to meet 'em. The only significance in
all this powwowing is that it removes
Ohio from the column of doubtful states.
Uittemeixi of rartisan .Feeling Forcibly
Illustrated.
Chicago, June 22. Partisan feeling
grows more bitter every day. Here is
the weather bureau of a republican ad
ministration trying to blow the demo
crats' wigwam into the lake. But, with
all seriousness such, visitations warn
Chicago that, while it is not a city that
is troubled with tornadoes, nevertheless
it is not free from danger due to the
ravages of boisterous winds. The storm
of the 13th was essentially a visitor from
the south. It had all the characteristics
of a storm of the tropics. Perhaps it
had lost its way, and, catching sight of
the lake, mistook that expanse of water
for the Gulf of Mexico. It had some of
the aspects and suggestiveness of the
ardent gentlemen from Dixie who blow
into Chicago straw-hatted and linen-
coated with the first warm breath of
springtime.
All the dark horses, including Gor
man, Morrison, Russell and Campbell;
with their followers, are making haste
to clamber into the band ' wagon of the
victor.
Seats in the wigwam are for 20,000
people. The chairman's desk is the
same over which Cleveland and Hen
dricks were nominated in 18S4.
Despite the almost certainty that
Cleveland will be nominated on the first
ballot, the Boies peoplo have announced
that their candidate will remain in the
race till the end, not only as a. matter of
state pride, but as a protest against the
nomination of a candidate not sup
ported, by the delegation -of his .own
state.
The weather department is politely
asked to refrain a trifle. Chicago has
been roasted with sunshine and basted
with showers quite enough. It is thor
oughly done..
One of the conspicuous advantages
enjoyed by Gov. Russell, " of Mass
achusetts, as a dark horse is that he is
so exceedingly dark.
David B." Hill, drops out of political
sight as gracefully and noislessly as a
goose feather in the calm June twilight.
It has been said by eastern democrats
that the west ' has developed for their
party no great popular leaders since the
war.. There is some truth and eome un
truth in this statement. It has con
spicuous contradictions, m Gov. Boies,
Senator Palmer and Col 'Morrison. It
must be admitted, however, that, while
Palmer and Morrison may be classified
as distinguished democrats, they do not
rank with Gov. Boies in popularity. '
to ine success oi me i-n,,, fl""'"'che(..ring for Boies, whose banner passed
that he should be nominated for the , , ,, -
Col. Morrison is exalted in the esteem of
men. .Senator Palmer has achieved
marked distinction. Palmer ran a fairly
good race in 1888. But ; success mnst
succeed, and. Palmer failed. Morrison
has never run for a state office, and he
has suffered defeat. Of the trio Boies is
the only one who has a running record.
He is the only democrat who has suc
ceded in carrying a republican state on
national issues. Other republiesw states
have been carried, but. local issues and
isms have been conspicuous factors in
the results. His hopeful friends who
have opeucd headquarters for him in
Chicago are right in believing their can
didate will take high rank in the view
of the delegates to the democratic natio
nal convention.

down the hall
The anti-Cleveland men threaten to
make a fight on the question of .abrogat
ing the unit rule in order to prevent -a
ballot beinsr reached. To this the
Cleveland men assert, that they will hold
the session until a ballot is reached if it
takes until midnight.
.Pending report of credentials com
mittee Senator Mills was-called upon for
a speech. Begged off sickness. Sena
tor Palmer is called. In his speech he
predicted that Illinois would go demo
cratic next fall, both on the presidential
and state ticket. He advocates and ap
peals for harmony in the party as abso
lutely necessary to success.
The report of the committee on cre
dentials was unanimously adopted. It
favors admitting both delegatesand con
testants to the Moor while contest is go
ing on, in Ala., Penn., Ohio, Utah, New
York and Arizona.
When the report of the committee on
permanent organization was called for,
Palmer said: "We have good men' to
choose from." Loud cries of "Hill"
were met with hissing. After Palmers
remarks Flower was called for. -
Rising to a chaif, in his delegation,
Mr. Flower declined, said the time had
not arrived yet for him to speak, and
refused to take the platform.
Wilson, of West Virginia, was chosen
permanent chairman of the convention,
ami the report of the committee on per
manent organization was adopted.
At ten minutes past 12 o'clock another
heavy rain ' storm set in, and business
had to lie suspended during the storm.
Bands are playing until it clears up.
During the storm today, as yesterday,
delegates sit under umbrellas to keep off
the rain. The wigwam is uncomfortable
and unsafe, but the crowd comes.
A dispatch was read from Minneapolis
tendering the committee the hall there
if the convention wished to come to
linneapolis.
The following reply was made :
It will require more wind than that
prevailing to blow the national demo
cratic convention from Chicago to Min
neapolis.
2 :2C. The hall is darkened by clouds,
but the committee of five gropes its way
to the platform, escorting Chairman
Wilson, who takes the seat amidst
cheering.
At !T:o4 reports of committees were
being acted upon. The New York peo
ple say thev have given up the idea of
contesting the nuit rule, and will, there
fore, not prevent the ftnnority report
from favoring it.
The adoption of the report of the com
mittee on rules, makes the unit rule
hold in this convention.
Waiting for the report of the commit
tee on platform, the time was filled in
with music, calls for 'speeches, princi
pally declined, etc. When a motion to
take a recess until 5 o'clock was adopted.
- It is said the silver advocates are jwakV
ing a strenuous light in the committee
on platform, for a silver plank, and if
necessary will carry the question into
the convention with the liklihood of a
long debate, which would prevent any
ballot being reached tonight.
Further bulletins received this eve
ning after we go to press, will be posted
at the Umatilla house.
The Western Union operators all over
the Unites States, were kept busy receiving-
Chicago bulletins last night,
until long after the great majority of the
haman family had retired to their virtu
ous couches. .. .
- Bulletins commenced arriving here at
3 p. m. yesterday, and the final sheet,
with the good night attachment, an
nouncing Cleveland's nomination, was
laid before the last contingent of news
seekers at 2 :30 this morning.
The convention was one of excitement !
during all those hours. .
At 5 :55 last evening, the first motion
to adjourn was made for 11 a. m. today.
This was kept up, at intervals, all night,
but was not successful. . .
The New Y'ork delegates were loudest
in their cheering at each occurrence of a
failure to adjourn. ' ' -
At 6:14 the committee on platform
were ready to report. A majority and a
minority report was presented.
Chairman Jones of the committee on
platform took the stand and asked sena
tor Vilas to read the resolutions.
Mr Patterson announced that he rep
resented the minority and would also
present a report. - -
Proceedings were again interrupted by
partisan maneuvering to catch the popu
lar pulse, which was sounded in pro
longed cheering for Cleveland, Boies
and others, displays of banners, etc..
Senator Vilas resumed -reading of- the
platform. It denounces the force bill.
Pledges the party to keep down govern
ment expenses, and for reduced taxa
tion. Calls for a reversion of the tariff,
'without injuring domestic industries.!.'
Denounces the McKinley tariff law,. and
endorses the action of the present con
gress. Denounces reciprocity as-a sham.
Asks for free coinage of gold and silver
without discrimination that both shall
be equal in value in payment of debts of
all kinds. Expresses sympathy with
Ireland, in its efforts to obtain home
rule. ,
Col. Jones moved the adoption of the'
piauorm, Dut as the minority report does
not agree with the majority report on
the tariff revision, motion to substitute
the miuortty report was made, pending
which motion, Watterson took the plat
form and ' read the tariff -plank of the
democratic convention of 1876, urging
the same tone now advocated by the
minority, and appealing eloquently for
the adoption of the minority tariff
plank.
Vilas took the platform to favor- the
majority report, amidst confusion, claim
ing that the tariff plank was the same
at 1884, and made some slighting re
marks about Watterson, the convention
laughing at the point made by Vilas, in
which Watterson joins. Watterson then
took the platform to respond. He de
nounced the tariff plank in the platform
as a "straddle," that should not be re
ported. . . - - '
A motion to substitute the minority
plank for that of the majority report
was made by Mr. Neal of Ohio, and a
call of roll of states was demanded. '
So great was the confusion the call
was interfered with and the sargeant at
arms cleared-tbe aisles.
. The motion for the substitute was
adopted, by a vote of 564 to 342.
Patterson, of Colorado, then took the
platform to present a substitute for the
rilver plank in the majority report, ad
vocating changing the coinage plank to
read free coinage of gold and silver, the
unit to be of equal intrinsic and ex
changeable value. Motion to adopt
substitute silver plank lost.
The call .of states was then ordered
(!):23 p. iik), for presentation of candi
dates. Gov. Abbott, of N. YM presented
Cleveland's name. , The usual cheering,
at the mention of names burst forth,
and it was with difficulty the speaker
could be heard. At 10 :0S -Abbott re
sumed his speech, when he mentioned
the name of Gov. Flower. Three cheers.
Campbell's name is mentioned three
more cheers ; then a tiger for Cleveland,
etc.
During this interior Bedlam, Jupiter
Pluvins broke loose on the outside, and
a neavy trmnuer storm raged, the wig
wam leaking badly, rain coming down on
the platform, and the speakers desk, and
on the reporters tables. The speaker
had to leave his desk and take refuge in
front of the platform as the rain poured
down in a stream on his desk. "
. Proceeding amid all this confusion
DeWitt, of N. Y., took the platform to
present Hills' name, at 10:28. Burke
Cochrane asked, that they wait a few
minutes, as gentleman could not stand
on a platform without getting wet.
The band then started, playing "One
more River to Cross."
The telegraph and press offices, un
derneath the stage aro flooded with
water interfering with the working of
the wires.
A motion that the galleries be cleared
if disorder continues, was carried.
At 10:43 Dewett proceeded. The
storm had subsided, but water was still
coming down in many parts of the hall.
Duncomb, " of Iowa, presenting .the
name of Boies, , said this was. the first
time a man.w6uld.be presented for the
high office of president who lives west of
the Mississippi river. ' In the days of
Lincoln, Boies was a republican.
Watterson, of Kentucky, seconded
Boies.
Daniels, of Virginia task the platform
to second Hill, when the galleries caused
so much confusion that he proposed to
leave the hall if be could not be heard.
The sargeant at arms was instructed to
use force and clear the galleries, unless
order was restored.
Motions to adjourn here began loudly,
at (1 :30 a. m: 23d;, but were voted
down every time. Daniels proceeded,
and the .audience '.became very , quiet.
The vote' was- finally" 'reached and
Cleveland nominated on the first ballot

THAT CANAL SC'BEJIE.
DixtlnctlTely a Seattle Job The My. I
. terles of Folitics.
From the Spokane Revie-.
It is hoped that the house conferees
on the river and harbor bill will remain
firm in their opposition to the lakes
Washington and Uhiou ship canal
scheme. The estimated cost of this im
provement is from $2,000,000 to $2,500,
000, governed largely by the choice of
two proposed routes. If the work is
undertaken the interests of the rest of
the state must languish. Every dollar
wheedled out of congress for this local
job will be taken away from the vastly
more important improvements of a pub
lic nature, and the interest taken in it
by the Washington senators detracts
just that much from thei efforts to
bring about the opening of the Colnmbia
river. That Senator Squire should work
for this deal is not a matter of surprise.
He is from Seattle, and this is distinct
ively a Seattle job ; but that Senator
Allen should give it his support, when
his colleague is doing little or uothing
for the Columbia river, is one of the
mysteries of politics beyond the compre
hension of ordinary mortals. For years
we have heard the contention that the
harbor in front of Seattle is the finest in
the world; that it has anchorage and
scope enough for the combined navies of
the universe, and that the ravages of the
teredo were too "trifling to be considered.
And so it is with surprise that we read
in Senator Squires statement before the
senate committee on commerce that all
this has' been error; that the harbor
there is exceedingly restricted, and that
the demands of ,the commerce of the
state require the immediate construction
of artificial harborage.
The senator might have spared him
self the pains he has taken to speak for
the producers of the Inland Empire.
The people of the grain and mineral sec
tions don't want a canal dug from Sal
mon bay to the lakes in question. They
are convinced that Puget sound affords
enough harborage for all demands that
may be made within the next thousand
years, and if fresh water harborage is
such a great advantage as the senator
now considers" it, the commerce of the
interior can find plenty of it, not only in
the Columbia "river, but at different
points along Puget sound. The ieople
of the interior demand that the Colum
bia river be open to navigation. You
might dig canals on Puget sound until
the crack of doom,, and the work, done
would not earn a bushel of additional
wheat to the market ; would-: not afford
the producer even a trace of competitive
transportation. They would still remain
at the mercy of the railroads. The truth
is that canal or no canal, fresh water or
no water, ships will come to these shores
in proportion to the tonage afforded by
producers of the state. Without this
tonage they can not be lured here by ar- '
tificial berths. The supply will equal
the demand, and tonage is what consti
tutes the demand and what will always
constitute it. The canal is purely a local
job. Outside of Seattle it has no advo
cates, either east or west of the moun
tains. The Review favors liberal im
provements for rivers and harbors, but
it views with indignation deals of this
transparent nature, and resents unwar
ranted pleas made in the name of a peo
ple who are up in arms against the job.
