CHANGES WHICH CON'SfTITCTED A STAM
PEDE.
After the roll call of the States on the bal
lot had leen completed, and before the result
had been announced, Cleveland at this time
lacking the requisite number of votes to nomi
nate. a stampede occurred which ended in
the New Yorker's victory. Nearly every
State announced corrections.
Illinois corrected its vote ns follows: Hen
dricks, 1; Bayard, 3; McDonald, 3; Cleve
land, 37.
Kansas changed as follows: Bayard, 3;
Cleveland, 13: Thurman. 2.
North Carolina changed her 22 votes from
Bavard to Cleveland amid great excitement
and cheering.
Virginia changed her vote to Cleveland 23,
Hendricks 1.
Georgia changed to Cleveland 22 and Bayard
All the delegates were on their feet and
many of them were clamoring for recognition.
Florida changed to Cleveland 8.
West Virginia changed to Cleveland 10.
Maryland changed her 16 votes to Cleveland.
Changes were so numerous and accompa
nied with so much uproar and excitement
that it was almost impossible to keep track
of them.
The Missouri delegation announced a change
of its 32 votes solid for Cleveland. This set
off the enthusiasm again and the cheering
was deafening.
An anchor of flowers was carried to the New
York delegation and a stuffed eagle carried
in procession. The hand struck up more
patriotic airs, flags and banners were waved,
and the excitement gained the fever point
because the Cleveland vote had nearly reached
the necessary two-thirds. At this juncture,
when the success of Cleveland was certain,
some of the minority delegates left the hall.
Outside the artillery began to boom, ami
inside the uproar was tremendous. Then a
change of Califordia was announced—Cleve
land 8 and Thurman 8.
Mr. Monzies, of Indiana, changed the vote
of that State to Cleveland, and moved that
the vote be made unanimous.
Illinois changed her vote, 41, to Cleveland.
Kansas changed also for Cleveland, 17, and
Bayard 1.
MR. MENZIES’ MOTION RULED OUT.
The Chairman stated that he would rule
out of order the motion, to make the vote
unanimous nntil after the vote was an
nounced.
California again changed her vote, making
it 16 solid for Cleveland.
South Carolina changed to Cleveland 10 and
Bay ant 8.
Texas gave her whole 26 votes for Cleve
land.
Ohio changed her vote to Cleveland 27 and
Thurman 19.
Tennessee changed her vote to Cleveland.
lowa transferred her 26 votes solid to Cleve
land.
At this moment an immense painting of
Gov. Cleveland was carried on the platform,
watting to be set up when the vote should !>e
announced, and still the work of changing
the votes was going on in the most confused
manner.
John Kelly, attended by some of his sup
porters, left the hall, confused and disgusted
at his thorough defeat.
The votes of the States in detail were then,
at 1 o’clock, announced by the clerk for veri
fication. The general result xvas then an
nounced as follows, at 1:10 o’clock: Whole
numlier of votes east, 820; necessary to a
choice, 547; Cleveland received 683, Hendricks
45iy. Bayard s:' 5 , McDonald 2, Itandall 4, and
Thurman 4.
The question was then pnt on Mr. Menzies’
motion to make the nomination unanimous,
and it was carried triumphantly.

COMPLETING THE TICKET.
Hendricks’ Enthusiastic Selection for
the Second Place.
Chicago, July 11.—It was 5:30 o’clock
before tie evening session was called to
order, and the fi.st business done was the
adoption of the resolution electing Mr.
Vilas, Chairman of the convention, as
Chairman of the committee to notify the
nominees of their selection as candi
dates. A telegram was read from the
President of the New Y’ork Produce Ex
change stating that the business men of
New York were solid for Cleveland.
A delegate from Louisiana offered a resolu
tion providing that in case of a vacancy on
the ticket for the office of President or Vice
President, a majority of the National Com
mittee shall have the power to All the vacancy.
There was so much opposition made to the
resolution that it was withdrawn.
A delegate from Texas offered a resolution
that the Democratic party, in convention as
sembled, indorse the Morrison bill for a re
duction of the war taxes.
There was a stsrm of opposition to the reso
lution, and the Chairman ruled that It must
be referred to the Committee on Resolutions.
The convention then proceeded to the call of
the roll for the nomination of candidates for
Vice President.
ROSECRANS PRESENTED.
Mr. Searles, of California, hamffto the plat
form. He said that California was a loving
mother to her children and they in return
loved her. On behalf, and as a representa
tive of the delegation from the Pacific coast,
he presented for their suffrages a man who
had been eminent among his fellow men.
who in the councils of the nation had been
pre-eminent, who had led their soldiers to
battle, who had achieved victories, who had
assisted in upholding the banner of the coun
try. He presented the honored name of Gen.
W illiam S. Rosecrans, the hero of Stone River,
a faithful soldier, a grand old commander,
whose image was impressed on the hearts of
all men who served under him. [Cheers for
Kosecrans.]
M’DONALD PRESENTED.
Mr. Branch, of Colorado, nominated Joseph
E. McDonald.
BACON PRESENTS BLACK.
Mr. Bacon, of Georgia, said that he was com
missioned by his delegation to present the
name of a man eminent in war and peace, a
distinguished commander and a gallant sol
dier. Gen. J. C. Black, of Illinois. [Cheers
for Black.]
Judge Black expressed his appreciation of
the high and unmerited compliment paid him.
It was almost absolutely a surprise to him,
but he had come here as a spokesman and rep
resentative of another citizen of the
republic. He had put his hand in the
hand or Joseph K. McDonald,
and while that gentleman’s name was before
the convention, he (Black) could not appear
as in any sense his rival for anv position. He
therefore respectfully declined the nomina
tion.
Mr. Mnnn. of Illinois, hoped that the de
clination would not tie received. He paid a
high compliment to Gen. Black. 6aving that
when a surgeon was operating on his arm af
ter a battle, he declared that although he
lost an arm. his whole liody was firm and
true for the Union aid lirm aDd true for the
Democracy. He was without exception the
most gallant son that Illinois possessed.
GLYCK BEFORE THE HOUSE.
Mr. Pinloxv, of Kansas, presented the name
of George W. Glyok.
A telegram was read from Council Bluffs,
lowa, stating that the nomination of Cleve
land had been received with the wildest en
thusiasm, that thousands of Democrats and
hundreds of Republicans were equally capti
vated with it, and that Council Bluffs would
do her part toward carrying lowa for the
Democracy.
A delegate from Missouri seconded the
nomination of McDonald.
Mr. Faulkner, of Mississippi, seconded the
nomination of Rosecrans. No other candi
dates, he said, could come so near bringing
together all the old brave soldiers who fought
on either side in the late war. An Oregon
delegate said that Oregon was in favor of
Rosecrans.
THE WINNER’S PRESENTATION.
Senator Wallace, of Pennsylvania, said that
he nominated as a candidate for the Vice
Presidency a man conversant with public
affairs throughout his w hole life, an honored
statesman, a pure and upright citizen—a
victim of the grossest fraud ever perpetrated
on the American people—Thomas A. Hen
dricks. [Cheers.]
Mr. Waller, of Connecticut, seconded the
nomination of Hendricks, and said that the
Democratic party would, in defiance of fraud
and in accordance with law, place him in the
chair of the Vice Presidency.
The presentation of Hendricks’ name was
greeted with cheers, the convention repeat
ing in a lesser degree the scene which took
place at the morning session in honor of the
same gentleman.
HENDRICKS’ DECLINATION.
Mr. Menzies, of Indiana, declared emphati
cally that Hendricks was not and could not
be a candidate for the Vice Presidency. He
had been authorized by Mr. Hendricks him
self to say so. He therefore warned the con
vention not to do that which it would have to
undo.
Mr. Walsh, of Georgia, asked Menzies
whether he was authorized to say that Mr.
Hendricks would not accept the nomination
of the convention for the office of Vice Presi
dent.
Mr. Menzies repeated his statement.
Mr. Waller, of Connecticut, said that his
State had surely no desire to force upon Indi
ana a candidate against its will, hut this was
not an Indiana convention. It was anational
convention. The Democrats of the country
had a right to take a fit man from any place
in it. [Cheers.] If any man said that he knew
that Hendricks at this time was not patriot
ic enough to take a nomination tendered
under those circumstances he would with
draw him, but with humiliation. Mr. Waller
said that Hendricks had been once chosen
Vice President and had been despoiled of the
office. The Democrats of the republic de
manded of him again his name as a candidate
and they would not take no for an answer.
He moved to suspend the rules and nominate
Thomas A. Hendricks as a candidate for Vice
Presidentby acclamation. [Cheers.]
Mr. Harris, of Pennsylvania, united the
voice of Virginia with that of the Keystone
State. [Cheers.]
Mr. Searles, of California, withdrew the
nomination of Rosecrans. The other nomi
nees were all withdrawn, one by one, so that
Hendricks alone remained before the conven
tion.
NOMINATING HENDRICKS.
Gov. Hubbard, of Texas, made a spirited
speech in favor of giving Mr. Hendricks the
office out of which he had been cheated.
Mr. Weed, of New York, suggested that the
roll of States be called so as to put on record a
unanimous vote for Hendricks.
Mr. Wallace accepted the suggestion and
withdrew his nomination to nominate by
acclamation.
The motion was agreed to, and the clerk
called the roll of the States. The result was
the unanimous nomination of Thomas A.
Hendricks as the candidate for Vice Presi
dent.
GOING WILD OVER HENDRICKS.
When the vote of Indiana was announced
for Hendricks and it was apparent that his
nomination was unanimous, the delegates
and audience rose to their feet and indulged
in the usual extravagant demonstrations.
The whole house was a sea of undulating color
formed by the waring* of handkerchiefs of
every line, hats, umbrellas and everything
else which could be seized on by the excited
assemblage. The band broke in on the un
earthly dm with the strains of “Ilail to the
Chief.” A number of delegates seized stand
ards and bore them to the platform, where
they were gathered into clusters about which
were congregated 200 or 300 delegates yelling
as if Cleveland and Hendricks were Just
being passed into the Presidential oiiice.
After remaining on the front of the
platform for a few minutes the dele
gates in charge of the standards formed
themselves into a procession and marched
around the hall, while the band favored the
crowd with “The Star Spangled Banner.”
Immediately upon the cessation of the music
the people began again with a second chapter
of the uproar, wh- n the band came in with
“Dixie,” which was saluted with a delirious
scream by the Southern members, ably as
sisted by the Northern wing of the Democ
racy. Succeeding the interval of the simple
yelling which succeeded “Dixie” came tlie
strains of “Auld Lang Syne” from the band,
and thousands of voices thumiered the
refrain of the old, familiar song,
while the audience and delegates
were perpetrating discordant sounds.
Following “Auld Lang Svne” the solemn
notes of “Old Hundred' came floating down
from the gallery In which the music was lo
cated and 13,000 voices joined in the grand
old hymn. “America” and “Home, Sweet
Home” were rendered by tlie band and the
crowd, and the demonstration after a contin
uance of something over twenty minutes was
at an end.
Mr. MeDzies, of Indiana, asked that his
State be excluded from the vote. [Loud
shouts of “no,no”]. .He then asked whether
there was any name but Hendricks, and on
receiving an answer in the negative, said:
“Then, sir. Indiana casts thirty votes for
Thomas A. Hendricks.”
This was at the close of the call, making the
result a unanimous vote.
THE YELL FOR HENDRICKS.
The demonstration that succeeded surpassed
any previous scene that has taken place dur
ing this eventful day. Flags ana banners
were scattered around (he section occupied
-by the Indiana delegation, and there waved
ainid gfcat applause, and w ith the band plac
ing “An and Lang Sine,” the words of which
rung with feeling, the chorus being joined in
by several thousand voices. Then the band
struck np “Old Hundred,” and all joined in
the solemn hymn. This was follow ed by mu
sic, and the song “America,” and that again
by “Home, Sweet Home.”
Tbe Chairman then got a chance to make a
formal announcement of the Tote. He said
that there had been 816 votes cast, all of which
were for Hendricks, and that Mr. Hendricks
was therefore the candidate of tbe convention
for Vice President of the United States.
[Cheers.]
Resolutions of thanks were passed to the
temuorary and permanent Chairmen and the
clerks anu officers of the convention, and also
to the reportorial corps and to tbe press of the
country for their accurate and impartial re
port of the proceedings.
The chairman on hia own behalf moved a
vote of thanks to Sergeant-at-Arms Bright,
of Indiana. This was adopted. Votesof thanks
were also passed to the Mayor of Chicago,
Carter Harrison, and to tlie Chief of Pelioe
and to the citizens of Chicago for their hospi
taUty. The convention then, at 7 :*0 o’clock
to-night, Adjourned fmm die.
SAVANNAH, SATURDAY, JULY 12, 1884.
DELEGATES GOING HOME.
Kelly’s Lips Sealed, bnt Manning Con
fident of Victory.
Chicago, July ll.—The outward trains
for the East were heavily loaded this
afternoon. Nearly all the Eastern march
ing organizations have taken their de
parture. The Americus and Randall
clubs of Philadelphia paraded the streets
before taking their leave, bearing, in addi
tion to their club banners, one inscribed
with the name of Cleveland. The Tam
many braves, 600 strong, took a special
train at 5 o’clock. Some of the members
took the outcome jocularly, but in the
main the delegation showed bitterness ol
spirits, and some ol the members dis
played bits of crape in tbeir button holes.
“1 think the Democratic partv
has committed hari-kari!” said one
of the Sachems. A number of
opinions are printed as coming from John
Kelly, but he declared positivelv that he
has not conversed with any newspaper
man. and that he has not expressed anv
opinion upon the situation, and is not re
sponsible for any statements coming from
Tamtnany members who mar feel that
they have encountered a personal defeat.
MANNING PREDICTS VICTORY'.
Mr. Manning and the majority of the
New Y’ork delegation are exuberant, hut
modest in their speech. Mr. Manning
says that Cleveland will surelv carry
New York.
“By what majority?”
“1 shall not predict majorities, but we
shall carry New' York beyond any doubt.
If the other Democratic States do their
duty, Cleveland w ill occupy the White
House after next March, the party at
large in the State will give him as earnest
support as it did Tilden. I am safe in
promising victory in New York State.”
Lbere were great crowds outside of
Convention Hall to hear the result of the
balloting, and heavy cheering followed.
THE PLATFORM.
Revenue Reformers Rejoicing Over the
Greatest Victory in Years.
Chicago, July 11.—The more the reve
nue reformers look at the tariff plank of
the platform the better they like it. Frank
Ht*rd is now as well pleased as the rest.
They see in the square declarations in
favor of a tariff for revenue only fresh
raw’ materials, free necessities of life and
close reciprocal commercial relations
with countries on our own continent,
ending in ultimate freedom of trade
with all countries with which we can
deal. The declarations they see
as clearly as though they had
been couched in these blunt phrases.
They also know that in the Committee
on Resolutions three protective proposi
sitions, besides the Butler platform, were
voted dowm, namely, a proposition to
strike out the word “exclusively,” a
proposition made by Mr. Converse, of
Ohio, to adopt the Ohio tariff plank, and
a proposition made by Mr. Converse to
adopt a plank in favor of the restoration
of the old duty on wool.
THE GREATEST VICTORY' IN Y EARS.
These lacts, taken in connection with
the overwhelming defeat of the Butler
platform in the convention, strengthen
their conviction that they have won
the greatest victory of recent years for
tariff'reform. They regard the'tariff as
the issue of the campaign and believe
Cleveland to be a thorough revenue re
former, well able to meet it. The burial
in the committee of the resolution
presented in the convention this
forenoon approving Mr. Morrison’s tariff
hill and condemning as men who acted
on policy rather than on principle the
Democratic Congressmen who voted
against it, indicated nothing save the de
sire of the Chairman and the convention
itself to have the convention end har
moniously, without condemning anybody
for anything. It did so end,' anil
still no one doubts that a large majority
of the convention would have voted for
that resolution had It been presented.
The nominations were ratified by a pro
cession of the clubs and speech making
in the hotels. A thousand club men car
ried new brooms significantly in the pro
cession.
IN CLEVELAND'S PRESENCE.
How He Heard the News, was Serenaded
and Made a Telling Speech.
New York, July 11.— One hundred
guns were fired here in honor of Cleve
land’s nomination as soon as the news
was received. The Governor was in the
executive chamber of the capitol with
Adjutant General Farnsworth and a few
other friends. The booming of the can
non was the first announcement to Cleve
land of his nomination. Standing in his
private room, with Gen. Farnsworth on
his right and Col. Lamonte, his private
secretary, on his left, he received the
congratulations of those present In a
dignified manner.
CLEVELAND SERENADED, SPEAKS.
Albany, July 11. —The Young Men's
Democratic Club and the Jacksonians
serenaded Gov. Cleveland this afternoon.
A vast crowd of citizens surrounded his
residence. Joseph Tray, President of the
Young Men’s Democratic Club, briefly
congratulated the Governor upon hi's
nomination on behalf of his associates and
the Democratic party. Gov. 'Cleveland
responded as follows:
Fellow Citizens —l cannot but feel grati
fied with this kindly greeting. I find that
I am fast reaching tbe point where I shall
count the people of Albany not merely as
fellow citizens, but as townsmen and
neighbors. On this occasion I am,
of course, aware that you pay no
compliment to a citizen a'nd present no
personal tribute, but that you have come
to demonstrate your loyalty and devotion
to a cause in which you are heartily en
listed. The American people are aliout
to exercise in its highest sense their power
and right of sovereignty. They are to
call in review before them their public
servants and representative political
parties and demand of them an account
of their stewardship.
BANEFUL EFFECTS OF LONG TENURE.
Parties may be so long in power and
may become so arrogant and careless of
tbe interests of the people as to grow
heedless of their responsibility to their
masters, but the time comes as' certainly
as death when the people weigh them in
the balance. The issues to be adjudi
cated by the nation’s great assizes are
made up and are about to be submitted.
We believe that the people are not re
ceiving at the hands of the party which,
lor nearly twenty-four years, has directed
the affairs of the nation, the full benefits
to which they are entitled of a pure, just
and economical rule, and we believe that
the ascendancy of genuine Democratic
principles will insure better government
and greater happiness and prosperity
to all people. To reach the sober thought
of the nation, and to dislodge an enemy
entrenched behind spoils and patronage,
involves a struggle which if we under
estimate we invite defeat. I am pro
foundly impressed with the responsibility
ot the part assigned to me in this contest.
My heart, 1 know, is in the cause, and 1
pledge you that no effort of mine shall be
wanting to secure victory, which I be
lieve to be within the achievement of the
Democratic hosts. Let us, then,
enter upon the campaign, now
fairly opened, each ODe appre
ciating well the part he has to
perform, ready with a solid front to do
battle for better government confiden
tially, courageously, always honorably,
and with a firm reliance upon the intelli
gence and patriotism of the American
people.
THE CONGRATULATIONS.
After the speech the crowd passed
through the house, shaking the Governor
by the band. Over 1,000 congratulatory
teletrrams were received, prominent
among which were messages from Thos.

IN NEXV YORK CITY,
Crowds Around tbe Bulletins and Con
fidence In Success General.
New Y'ork, July 11.— All the morning,
from the time balloting first began up to
the reception of the news of the nomi
nation, crowds of people assembled in
front of the various newspaper bulletins
and expressed their sentiments on the facts
as they were made known. From the first
Gov. Cleveland’s nomination was looked
for, and when it was placarded that the
Pennsylvania delegation had retired for
consultation, everybody said: “If Penn
sylvania goes lor Cleveland, that will
settle it.” At 1 o’clock the streets in
Iront of the newspaper bulletins were
blocked, interrupting travel to some ex
tent.
There was not much excitement, how
ever, until tbe words were put up: “Gov.
Cleveland nominated on second ballot.”
Then a shout arose from the hundreds and
most of them clapped tbeir hands and
clapped each other on the back. There
was no excitement about the Citv Hall, as
there were no politicians there.' All the
Democrats were in Chicago, and the Re
publican members ot the Board of Aider
men were out ol town. Mayor Sdson bad
kept posted about the news as it was bul
letined by messengers. When asked his
views on the result- he said! “I consider
the choice excellent. I have no doubt of
the Governor's election.”
The news of the nomination was re
ceived at the Produce Exchange with
mud and long continued cheering. In
YY all street it was received bv everv one
in a manner that indicated that It was a
foregone conclusion.
STRENGTH IN HENDRICKS’ NAME.
The addition of Hendricks’ name to the
Democratic ticket was everv where re
garded. both among the Republicans as
well as Democrats, as greatly strengthen
ing it. Among the Democrats the an
nouncement that Hendricks had accepted
the second place on the ticket was
received with great enthusiasm,
and the success of the party in the com
ing election, while it had been regarded
as almost certain with Cleveland at the
helm, is felt now to be doubly assured.
Adams said giat it would
receive the support of the entire Democra
cy and all the Independent Republicans.
At the Manhattan Club,the members hear
tily indorsed the ticket. The feeling
everywhere among Democrats is one of
profound satisfaction.
INDEPENDENT REPUBLICANS.
Curtis, Schurz, Denting and Others
Will Support Cleveland.
New York, July 11.—George William
Curtis, leader of the independent Repub
lican movement, declined to be inter
viewed in regard to the nomination of
Cleveland. “I w'ill say this, however,”
said Mr. Curtis, “that I regard the nomi
nation as the wisest one the Democratic
party could have made, and I believe that
It will he satisfactory to the independent
voters.” He declined to express his views
further.
SCIIURZ WILL SUPPORT HIM.
Carl Schurz said: “I am pleased with
the nomination ot Gov. Cleveland, and
shall give him my support. 1 think he is
the strongest candidate the Democrats
could have nominated, and he will un
doubtedly receive a large support outside
ol his own party from Independent
voters.”
SURE TO CARRY' NEW YORK.
Horace E. Deming, Chairman of the In
dependent Republican Executive Com
mittee, and President of the Young Re
publican Club of Brooklyn, 6aid that he
regarded Cleveland’s nomination as a sig
nal triumph of the better element
of the Democratic party aud a
tribute to the growing independent
sentiment throughout the country in both
parties. He said that no doubt. Cleveland
would be able to carry New York State,
as he would undoubtedly receive the sup
port of the independent voters in the
Republican party, and his popularity
among the younger men was a well
established fact. The opposition of Tam
many Hall to Cleveland he did not regard
as ominous to his prospects, hut rather
as beneficial to him. Tammany’s strength,
he said, was greatly overrated, and it was
by no means the important political factor
that many people supposed. If it was
supposed that Tammany was working
against Cleveland it would give him votes
all over the State. It was not probable
that the independent Republicans would
formally endorse Cleveland, although they
would throw their vote in his favor. A
conference would he held about July 22,
probably in this citv, when a definite line
of policy would be decided upon.
Ethan Allen Doty, also a member of the
Independent Republican Executive Com
mittee, said that the Independents would
support Cleveland, and predicted that he
would carry New York by a large ma
jority.

discussed, and it was agreed, it possible,
to nominate Thomas A. Hendricks for
that office. The choice narrowed down
before the final decision, to
Hendricks and ex-Senator Davis, of
'Vest Virginia. Mr. Davis was sent for,
but gave so many reasons why he
should not be placed on the
ticket and why Hendricks should, that
the latter was at length decided on.

the conference were Messrs. Barnum of
Connecticut, Cleveland of New Jersey,

New York, July 11.—Rev. Henry
Ward Beecher said to-night: “The nomi
nation of Gov. Cleveland is one of the
best, if not the best, that could have been
made. I propose to vote for Gov. Cleve
land for President. You must remember,
however, when I say this what my posi
tion is. I claim to be an independent
member of the Republican party,
and as I am not an office seeker,
I claim the right to ' exercise
my judgment and do as I like. I propose
to vote for whom I please. You must
remember also that my remarks only
apply to the Presidential office. Further
than that 1 do not go. I am a Republican,
and as there is to be a meeting T>f the In
dependent Republicans 1 prefer to await
their action. The matter is simply that I
am a Republican aud always have been,
but I propose to vote for the best man,
and I think he is Gov. Cleveland.”

company when the first change to Cleve

been abandoned, there was a general
agreement that Cleveland would prove
a candidate very generally accept
able to the party, aud that time

separated, and Senator Bayard, after
telegraphing his congratulations to Cleve
land, left to dine with a friend.

amount of money on the completion of
the Cincinnati and Eastern Road to Ports

whole. There is nothing wrong with his

At Albany.
Down in the obscure town of Caldwell.
Essex county, N. J., there stands yet a
little two-story and a half white house,
with wooden shutters, and there, says the
IUOWII, in the year 1837, was born .Stephen
Grover Cleveland, now Governor of the
great State of New Y’ork. He has only
the most shadowy recollections of it; for
when he was 3 years of age his father,
who was a Presbyterian minister, with a
large family and a small salary, moved
by way of the Hudson river and Erie
canal to Fayetteville, in search of an in
creased income and a larger field of work.
Fayetteville was then the most struggling
of country villages—about five miles from
Potnpey Hill, where Gov. Seymour was
born.
Here the boy Grover Cleveland first went to
school in the good old-fashioned wav, and
presumably distinguished himself alter the
manner of all village bovs in doing all
the things that he ought not to do. One
thing appears to be indisputable. He at the
age of 14 had outgrown the capacity of the
village school and expressed a most emphatic
desire to be sent to an academy. To this his
father as emphatically objected. Academies
in those days cost money. Besides, the older
Cleveland wanted the lad to become self
supporting by the quickest possible road. The
quickest possible road in Fayetteville was the
country store, where the pastor with a large
family had considerable personal influence.
Fifty dollars was to be paid the boy the
first year, and if he proved trustworthy lie was
to receive SIOO the second year.
IN A COUNTRY STORE.
One can easily enough picture the employ
rneiit if oik; knows what a thriving: country
store is, its duties ranging with scarcely time
for intermediate soap and water, from deal
ing out mackerel and molasses to outline off
cotton print enough for the village belle's now
dress. There is a tradition comes from Fa
yetteville, not at all ill-defined, that voting
Cleveland in two years proved himself so
trustworthy that his employers used all their
eloquence to get him to stay on indefinitely.
The exact significance at 'this time of the
I ayetteville record may be judged when the
writer, after taking some trouble to unearth
il,finds it to he a record of simple, unswerving
integrity and untiring loyalty to the interests
of the bov’s employers. The most painstak
ing search among two general ions fails to dis
cover any Hashes of genius in that country
store or any memorials of eccentric talent in
that country village. But there is uniniDeach
able testimony that whatever the boy’s hand
was given to do he did with all hie heart, and
that he left behind him the reputation for
bravery, fidelity and candor that has outlived
all these years. It’s curious how some simple
traits defy time. In truth they seem to thrive
and grow witti it.
The removal of the elder Cleveland to Clin
ton gave Grover the long-wislied-for oppor
tunity to attend a high school, and he pursued
his studios industriously until the family
moved up on the Illaek river to what was
then known ns the Holland Patent—a village
of five or six hundred |>eoplc—fifteen miles
north of Ulica. The elder Cleveland preached
but three Sundays in this place, when lie sud
denly died. Grover first heard of his father’s
death while walking with his sister in the
streets of Utica. This event produced the
usual break-up of the family, and we next
hear of Grover Cleveland setting out for New
York city to accept at a smalt salary the posi
tion of under teacher in an asylum for the
blind, where at the time the since well-known
Gus. Schell was executive officer.
BRKAKS AWAY FROM TUTORSTTIP.
He stayed here two years, and it has been
round possible to discover the same indelible
record of hard work, faithfully performed and
well remembered by those who were cognizant
of it, and who arostill alive. From tending
country store to teaching tho blind is a lone
way on the road of self-discipline. But to
teach ne did not lielieve was his mission, and
consequently at the expiration of two years
he abandoned it and literally started out to
seek his fortune—only reversing the usual
order, and instead of coining to the great city,
lie left it. His hrst idea was to go to Cleve
land. As he has since said, the name seemed
a cood omen. But his uncle, Lewis F. Allan
a noted stock breeder, lived at Buffalo, and
ne went straight to him lor advice and Guid
ance.
WANTS TO BE A LAWYER.
The uncle did not speak enthusiastically.
What is it you want to do, my bov?” lie
asked.
“Well, 6ir, I want to study law.”
“Good gracious,” remarked the old gentle
man. “Do you, What ever put that
into vour head? How much money have you
got?”
To tell the truth he hadn’t got any.
“See here,” said the uncle, after a long con
sultation, ‘‘l want somebody to get up my
herd-book this year. Yon come and stay
with me and help me and I’ll give you |SO for
the year’s work and you can look round.”
Here it is that we lind the American boy
now annotating short horns out at Black
Rock, quite two miles from Buffalo. But he
kept his eye out for a chance to enter a law
office while he was editing the stock book,
and one day he walked boldly into the rooms
of Messrs. Rogers, Bowen & Rogers, and told
them what he wanted. There were a number
of young men in the place already. But.
young Cleveland’s persistency won, and he
was finally permitted to come as' an office hoy
and have the use of the law library. For this
he received the nominal sum of $3 or |4 a
week, out of which he had to pay his board
and washing. The walk to and from his
uncle’s was a long and that time a rugged
one. The first winter w r as a memorably
severe one, and his shoes were broken, and he
had no overcoat. But he never intermitted a
day. It began to he noticed that he was the
most punctual and regular of the lads
in the office. Often at night he was compelled
to stand by the warm chimney in the loft
where he slept and dry his feet after tramp
ing the two miles through the snow. His
senior employer had taken a copy of Black
stone on the first day of the boy’s office ex
perience and, planting it before him with a
bang that made the dust fly, said; “That’s
where they all begin.” There was a titter ran
round the little circle of clerks, for it was a
foreboding thing to begin with to the average
lad. It appears, however, that he stuck to
the Blackstone so well that he m stered it,
and so absorbed was be in it one night that
they locked him in and all wentoff. Hespent
that night with the book and never forgot it.
THE DISCIPLINE OF HARDSHIP.
This uneventful period of Grover Cleve
land’B-life, so devoid of adventure and barren
of romance, was the period at which all the
forces of his later life were gestating. The
privations and miseries of a penniless novi
tiate gave way slowly before his determined
assiduity and pluck. He tells in his own way
with a beaming, remniscent humor of the
first honor that came to him when his uncle,
in getting out the second volume of his “Breed
Book,” announced to him that he intended to
acknowledge in it tig valuable assistance.
But these privations and miseries, it mav
readily be seen by the temperament of the
man, were only so many stimuli. His was
not the hypersensitive nature that winced
and wore under physical discomforts.
“See here,” said his uncle to him one bitter
December night when the lad had w alked
out to Black Rock through the sleet and
snow, “this is prettv cold weather for you to
be traveling without an overcoat.”
“Oh,” says the young man, “I’m going to
buy one when I barn the money.”
"Why, look at your feet; they must be sop
ping* eh?” 1
“Oh, that’s nothing. I’m getting some copy
ing to do now and I’ll have a pair of boots by
and by.”
In those days boys had to demonstrate
what was in them before they received many
favors.
“You just go right over there to the tailor’s
and get the stoutest overcoat he has got. D’ye
hear.”
Very likely Grover had begun to demon
strate what was in him, but whether to the
°J the uncle it was a capacity for com
piling herd books or the capacity to contain
Blackstone cannot now be learned.
THE YOUNG LAWYER.
Four years in the office of Rogers, Bowen *
Rogers as a student equipped him with suffi
cient elementary knowledge and experience
to become managing clerk at the end of that
time. And so four years more pass. It is
interesting to know exactly what kind of
character he had now made for himself and
how he was regarded by his associates. It is
not difficult to ascertain this with reasonable
accuracy, seeing that most of those associates
are alive and accessible, and speak with
noticeable candor and unanimity.
Said one of them to the writer: “Grover
won our admiration by his three traits of in
domitable industry, unpretentious courage
and unswerving honesty. I never saw a more
thorough man at anything he undertook.
Whatever the subject was, he was reticent
until he had mastered all its bearings and
made up his own mind—and then nothing
could swerve him from bis conviction. It was
this quality of intellectual integrity more than
anything else, perhaps, that made him after
wards listened to and respected when more
brilliant men who were opposed to him were,
applauded and forgotten.” n
THE FIRST STEP INTO PUBLIC LIFE.
In 1563 the question of who should lie ap
pointed Assistant District Attorney for the
county ox Lne waa warmly discussed by the
young lawyers in Messrs. Rogers & Bowen’s
offices. There were several that were both
eligible and anxious, but it does cot appear
that young Cleveland advanced his own
claims. Indeed, it is a fact that after the
matter had been pretty well canvassed they
all agreed that he was the person that ought
to have it and they urged him to accept it.
This simple incident speaks volumes for the
already developed character of the young
man. He was appointed and from that mo
ment his public record began. During the
three years that he was in the DStrict At
torney's office the great bulk of its duties fell
upon his shoulders, and then it was that his
enormous vital strength and tireless industry
made themselves felt.
So well and faithfully had he conducted the
affairs of the county that at the end of three
years he was nominated by the Democrats
for the District Attorneyship. Here, again,
it is an undispntable fact that he did not *>-
licit the nomination, hesittl-d to accept it,
and did not turn his hand over to secure his
election. It is said in Buffalo that on the day
of election he was trying a case in court while
bis friends were electioneering for him on the
street, and the Judge on the bench, who was
presumably an admirer of his. peremptorily
adjourned the case and told Cleveland to go
and attend to his interests.
In the canvass that followed he was beaten
by the Republican candidate, Lvinan K. Bass.
This was in 1865. In lssu Mr. Cleveland
formed a law partnership with the late I. K.
\ anderpool, which lasted till ISC9. He after
wards associated himself with the late A. I*.
Lansing and the late Oscar Folsam. The lat
ter association, however, ended at the expir
ation of two years, owing to Mr. Cleveland
having been nominated aud elected in 1869 to
be
SHERIFF OF ERIE COUNTY’.
In that important position he earned an
anditional meed of public respect for his
courageous disregard of partisan interests
and his eonsc'cntions regard for the public
welfare. At the close of his term he formed
a partnership with his former antagonist,
Lymau K. Bass, and Wilson 8. Bissell. Mr.
Hiss’ health not long afterwards proviug
precarious he went to Colorado, and the firm
became Cleveland .% Bissell, to which part
nership Mr. George J. Sieard was admitted in
1881.
It was while thus associated that Grover
Cleveland actiteved his distinction as a law
yer second to few in the western part of the
Mato for legal acumen and intellectual hon
-68*7• H> 9 jury and bench trials were distin
jjoishea by dear Tipvrs, dirout simple logic
and a thorough mastery of all the intricacies
of the cases, and his invariable avoidance of
extrinsic issues and purely technical devices
secured for him the respect of his own profes
sion and the admiration of the public. These
qualities combined with the fidelity and inde
pendence of his official action while tn office,
brought him prominently before the public cf
UutTalo when that city, unable to extricate it
self from a municipal octopus, was casting
about for a staunch reform leader.
MAYOR OF BUFFALO.
Grover Cleveland’s election on a Democratic
and reform ticket in ISSI suddenly lifted him
from local into national prominence. The in
cidents of that election and subsequent ad
ministration are familiar throughout the
country. The election itself was an almost
unparalleled triumph, seeing that it was se
cured by the largest majority ever known,
thus demonstrating the unbounded confidence
which the people had m the special fitness of
their candidate to carry out the reform aud
in his unassailable integrity.
It is strictly true that Mayor Cleveland was
swept into office on one of those tidal waves
of popular protest against ring rule that arc
as resistless as they are sudden.
The nomination of Grover Cleveland was
avowedly and defiantly the gage of battle
thrown down by reform. There were only
two points to lie determined—did the people
want reform? that is did they wish their
business conducted honestly, and would the
man they had selected for the experiment so
conduct it? So vitally important were these
two questions that vaster and intenser themes
were for the moment forgotten by the country,
and it turned aside momentarily to watch
this contest in Buffalo. The people auswered
one question ami Grover Cleveland answered
the other. The reply in one case was with
votes, aud the other with acts.
THE FIGHT WITH DISHONESTY.
It would appear that the Diogenes of
American politics, worn out with his long
hunt, was disposed to lay aside his lantern
after the Buffalo election. Whatever else
may have been searched for, it is pretty well
settled that he had found an honest man, and,
what is of more consequence, the honest man
was brave enough to carry his private con
victions into his public duties with no regard
to partisanship on the one hand or the in
fluence and threats of political scoundrels on
the other. T here was no uncertain sound in
his inaugural message. It rang clear and
simple.
“We hold,” said he, “the money of the peo
ple in our hands, to be used for their purposes
and to further their interests as members of
the municipality.and it isquitc apparent that,
when any part ofthe funds which the taxpay
ers have thus intrusted us are diverted to
other purposes, or when, by design or neglect,
we allow a greater sum to be applied to any
municipal purpose than is necessary, we have,
to that extent, violated our duty. There
surely is no difference in his duties'and obli
gations, whether a person is intrusted with
the money of one man or many. And yet it
sometimes appears as though the officeholder
assumes that a different rule of fidelity pre
vails between him and the taxpayers than
that which should regulate his conduct when,
as an individual, he holds the money of his
neighbor.”
GROVER CLEVELAND AS GOVERNOR,
The election of Grover Cleveland as Gov
ernor is part of the recent political history of
the State. The enormous vote cast and the
overwhelming majority received were indica
tive of the interest felt in a reform candidate.
The Governor’s official acts since his elec
tion have been widely discussed. But no one.
has impugned his hone6tv and sincerity. His
veto of the 5-cent fare hill has been‘widely
complained of, but no one has intimated that
he was not governed by a strict sense of jus
tice to all the interests involved.
All the traits of assiduous industry, unos
tentatious dignity, thoroughness and sim
plicity, noted in Grover Cleveland’s early ca
reer, are observable in his present life at Al
bany. On the day before his inauguration as
Governor, he came down from Buffalo qui
etly with his law partner, Mr. Bissell, went to
the executive mansion and spent the night.
On the morrow the city was excited with the
approaching ceremonies. The streets were
crowded, but there was to ho no military pa
rade, no procession. The Governor-elect
walked from the executive mansion in com
pany with his friend to the capitol, which is a
mile distant, joining the throngs that were
going that way. He entered
the building unrecognized, but quite
at liis ease, sauntered up the executive
chamber, and was there met by Gov. Cornell.
The moment the inaugural ceremony was
over he passed into the spacious executive
chamber w'hicli is set apart for his use, ordered
that the doors should be opened to admit any
liody, and went immediately to work. Never
was any important public event so completely
stripped of its fuss and feathers. Never was
a more radical change effected in the official
routine ot the Executive Department.
Hitherto there.were all sorts of delays and
impediments in the path to the Governor.
Cards had to lie sent In, ushers conducted
citizens into ante-rooms and left them to cool
their heels on the State’s tessellated floor.
But the moment Grover Cleveland took pos
session he issued an order to admit any
body at once who wished to see him. Ami
up to the present time he has been quite
able himself to prevent this return to repub
lican simplicity from being abused His hab
its are indicative of his dislike of ostentation
and official parade and of his methodical and
industrious training. He walks from the ex
ecutive mansion every morning at 9 o’clock to
the capitol and goes straight to work. At
1:30 he walks back to his lunch, which takis
an hour. He then returns on foot to work
again and remains until 6, when he goes to
dinner. He is back at 8, and generally stays
until 11 or 12. He keeps no horses or extra
servants, and has not, been known to ride since
he has been in Albany except for an occasion
al pleasure jaunt. The amount of work thus
accomplished—as his private secretary, Mr.
Daniel 8. Earnout, testifies—is something en
ormous.
PERSONAL APPEARANCE.
His face, no less than his figure and action,
indicates strenuous vital force, and that
admirable co-ordination of facultici which is
best expressed in the phrase, “acool head.”
Those traits, which are in part the result of
early and constant self-training, have given
him the air of conscious aud quiet power
which belongs only to the triumphant antago
nist in the world’s fight. His figure betokens
herculean strength—massiveness is the best
word for it—and there is in the smoothly
shaven face, the same token of equal solidity
of character, with the suggestion of physical
vigor in the soft brown moustache that strong
ly contrasts with the scantiness of hair on his
head. There is a slight tendency to corpu
lency—as is usually the case in|vital tempera
ments—and a double chin is beginning to
hang down over the simple white necktie
There is nothing phlegmatic in the man’s
manner. His face lights up with a sympa
thetic smile, and without becoming animated
or brilliant he is at once interesting, unaffect
ed and intensely real.
THE CLEVELAND FAMILY,
The Governor’s great-grandfather, Aaron
ClevclafPT, was born Feb. 9, 1744, in KastHad
dam, the chief of the many Haddams that
skirt the Connecticut river below Middle
town. He lived and carried on business in
Norwich for the greater part of an active life.
Ihe local records are quite full of him less as
a successful hatmakcr than as a versatile
speaker, writer and actor in the politics of his
time. We hear of him making the first oppo
sition to slavery and introducing a bill into
the Connecticut Legislature, w here he repre
sented Norwich, for its abolishment. After
wards he turns up in Vermont as a Congre
gational minister. He finally died in New
Ifaven in 1815, regarded by every one aaa
staunch anti-slavery Republican. His son
Charles, born in 1772 in Norwiidi. became a
city missionary m 80-ton and was widely
known as “I ather Cleveland.” A daughter
the youngest of thirteen children, married’
the wch-known Dr. Samuel H. Cox. whose
son, Arthnr Cleveland Cox, is Knjaconal
Bishop of Western New York. episcopal
Aaron Cleveland’s second son, William the
grandfather qf the Governor. was a .llVer
smith by trade, and lived for the greater part
of hie life at Beacon Hill, on the outskirts of
Norwiob, He was a deacon of the Congrega
tional Church for twenty-five years, lledied
at Black Rock, Buffalo, in 1837. ifis second
son, Richard lulling Cleveland, was the Gov
ernor 8 father. He was horn in Norwich
Juue 19,1804. He was a thin, palo and Intel
lectual boy. He entered Yale in 1820, and
graduated in 1824, with sixty-seven others,
