Chairman Norton formally opened the i
convention in a brief but' stirring address.-.
At its ooncVaeio.ii Allen W. Thnr-
man, temporary vbairrnan, stepped for
ward 'and addressed ; the convention
Tburin'iin,'. after a few preliminary re
ia-l
marks, launched forth with a denunria
tion of the republican partv .and
tiiethods.
: .. . j
Pre." :
The!
The . following resolutions Were
sen ted to the convention today:
administration of Governor Campbell ia
endorsed for its honesty and economy j
and the last session of the general as- 1
sembly is commended espewally for its j
having provided for the secret liallot.' :
The majority report leads : '"We tire j
opposed to all class : legislation : and be-i
he ve in a tariff levied for the sole " pnr-
poseof 'producing revenues sufficient to
defray , the legitimate expenses, of. the
government economically administered.
We accept the issue tendered to us by i
the' republican .party 'on the .subject of i
the tariff. We lavor a graded inme-
tax; we denounce the demonetization of
silver in 1873 by the party then in 'power
as an iniquitous alteration of the money
standard in favor of creditors and against
debtors,. tax -payei s and producers, .and
whieh by shutting off one source of sup
ply . of primary money continually' in
i increase the .value of gold,, depressed
prices, hampers industry and disparages
enterprises, and we demand the' rein-
'statement of a constitutional standard
of both jroldand silver with equal right,
each to free an-1 unlimited -ooinage.' ! .
'We vlenonnce tlie reDublican'blllicin
dollar, congress w'hicb.hv its extravagant
expenditures has exhausted the surplus
ihHhe National treasury left there by a
democratic administration and created a
deficit." . , -
We favor closer commercial relations
with our Canadian neighbors."
,it",yp favor a liberal and. just pension
to deserving and. disabled soldiers and
sailors and their widows and orphans.?
The minority report gives the follow
ing as a substitute ol a, silver piann in
the platform. .
"We believe in honest money and the
coinage of gold and silver and' having
the circulating. medium conyertable into
,auch money without loss, and we oppose
all legislation which tends to dnve
either gold or silver out of circulation
and we. believe in maintaining the coin
age. of both metals on parity." ' ;
It also recommends that the. resolu
tions declaring for a graduated ncome
tax b? stricken out of the platform'.
The minority report wad rejected by
399V nays to yeas, and the plat
form as' reported by the majority of the
.committee wTaa adopted. .. . . .
Ex-Congressman LeBlond .has been
selected as permanent chairman. " '
On motion the picture of a victorious
rooster was adopted as the, device to des
ignate the democratic ticket : in accord
ance with the ballot reform law.
..The first, contest in. the convention
arose over the report of the committee
on credentials. A dispute in the 25th
ward of Cincinnati -and the Hamilton
county delegation was the subject of a
wrangle. " The minority" report was over
whelmingly defeated, and the majority
report on the credentials coinmitte Was
then adopted.. , , . .. , - ..:).,;
,: Nominating , ; speeches for governor
commenced at 10 :00 o'clock. ' Follett 'of
Cincinnati placed Neal in nomination,
.at the conclusion of which the. .conven
tion went wild.; Michael Ryan of- Cin
cinni ti,' nominated Governor Campbell.
. On. behal f of , Cay nhago county, Dodge
leader of the Kline men said : j 'I mqve
we make the nomination of Campbell
unanimous." " ' " ;' '''"'" . ,
The' motion w;aS quickly Jprit T!andi de
clared carried on a.rtvotioc, vote. A
Neal men failing to demand the yeas andJ
nays,' the Hamilton county men voted
"no" in cuprous, however, and 'as if. to
emphasize theiropposition repeated "no,
no, no," for half a minute following the
announcement. ; ; '" " ;;.'' : ' "
The motion' prevailed and they hissed
loudly and repeatedly notwithstanding
cries of ."shame, shame,' ""shame," from
Cayuhago county delegation. "

A strip of ekin, nine by five, inches, w.-ts j ciUi-ut or a deliberate case of suicide, it
cut from her body by surgeons and is hard to determine, as there is no one

resorted to. W. G. McGregor, a fellow

ANOTHER BLOCKAOK.

f Garfield, July 13. It is now evident
there; will -be another , wheat blockade
this fall, unless .the farmers bold the
grain for better prices, which is not
Tikelyj 'iThe- export of. grain from the
Palouse country will not be less, than
15,000,000 bushels, and may run nearer
18,000,000. Even the: lesser sum will
make 15,000 trainloads of 15. cars each,
which is more than the grades of this
country will permit as an average.:' But
the present crop will undoubtedly move
more rapidly than the last one, and: the
country ; is. better supplied ' with ware

"A tonching story was told of Tamber

Madrid one bright ; spring morning, h
viidted the bird market and bought every
bird in it. He 'ordered the cuges to 1
carried into the Plaza, and opened.' Tlie

host, and from hundreds of t iny throats
burst songs of delight. Tamherlik looked
aftor them with tears of pleasure in his
eyeS.: crying. "Go. .and ,,he free, my
brothers!" . . i
A similar 6torj- is told of u kindly old

Fourth of July. by .. buying up all thc
caged squirrels, rabbits and birds in trie
neighbbrbxxjd, and theu MMtt'ng' theiu

is' a very uncertain quantity, depending
