a Georgia raised boy. He was
born in Jasper County and gradu

THE CHICAGO CONVEN
TION.
ClesYfland sad Hendrick*
Nominated on theMec
ond Hallol
The National Democratie Con
vention assembled at Chicago at
12 M„ on Tuesday the Bth inSt.
Ex-Gov R B Hubbard of Texas,
was made temporary chairman.
On taking the chair he made a
splendid speech, which was re
ceived with immense applanee.
The committees weie appointed
and the*machinery of the Conven.
tion was put effectively to work
Georgia was represented as fol
lows . Judge George Hillyer is
one of ihe Vice Presidents, E P
Howell is a member of the com
mit tee on platform, W E Sim
mods on credentials, Patrick
A’alsb, member of the National
committee In place of Geo. T.
Barnes.
There was an immense crowd
in aiteuduuce, a number of aspi
rants being actively supported by
large organizations from their
own States, and the excitement
by Tuesday night had been work,
ed up to a high pitch. The Tam
many Hall organization was, as
usual, on hand with a large force,
and although they had been al
lowed a liberal representation in
3e!egation fram New Tcrk, found
that there was a majority against
them, which under the unit rule
adopied by the State Convention,
would give'the solid vote of the
State to Cleaveland. Tammany,
headed by John Kslly, was bitter
ly opposed to Gov Cleaveland and
predicted if he was nominated
New York would be lost. They
came into the Convention and In
sisted upon the right to vots inde
pendent of the majority but the
convention only recognized the
cba'rman of the delegation, and
the 72 votes of New York was
cast as a unit. This was regard
ed as the total overthrow of Tam
many’s power in the convention,
and u strong boost for the Cleave
laud boom, Kelly and his gang
fought Cieaveland at every step
and while he announced that he
would support the nominee of the
convention, his bitter tight and un
relenting opposition leaves it in
doubt whether he will not openly
tight the nomination of Cleave
land .
WH Vi las of Wisconsin, was
made permanent President of the
Convention. All sorts of combi
nations were reported to have
been made and rumors were
rife that the platform committee
had disagreed and two reperte
would be made upon the tariff
question. After a laborious ses
sion, all differences were ccrnpro
mised and the platform was pre
sented to the convention by a
unanimous vote with the excep
tion es Ben Butler of Maseachu
setts.
The other business having been
disposed of the most important,
that of nomiuatiug candidate*,
was then in order. The follow
gentlemen were then put in nomi
nation :

ed Thomas F Bayard.

During the night there wai a
strong disposition manifested to

and his name «as received with
rounds of applause w m whenever it
was mentioned.
THE FINAL VOTE.
On the assembling of the
convention, there was intense ex
citement and the immense hall
was packed with delegatee and
visitsrs, eager to see the final re
suit.
After some preliminary akirm
ishing the convention proceeded
to the aecond ballot. Befora the
ballot closed it became evident
that Cleaveland had receiv.nl near

The Convention took a recess
until sp. m. During this recess
there was a general consultation
among the leaders, and it was
agreed to support Thos. A. Hen
dricks .
As soon as Mr H endricks was
informed of this programme he
authorized hie fheude to say that
hs was not a candidate for the po
sition and declined to accept it. —
He was there iu the interest ot Me
Donald and wanted him nominal -
ed. On the assembling of tbe
convention, a number of names
was presented for the second
place on the ticket, but as soon as
//endricks was named by Senator
W allace, tbe convention received
the announcement with a storm of
applause. The Indians delegation
again protested against the presen
tat ion of Gov. Hendrick’s name.
It was replied that this wasaNath
ional and not a State Convention
and the party had a right to se
lect its man. Indiana refused to
vote when called, but at the close
of the ballot, all of tbe other
names had been withdrawn, and
that state cast thirty votes for
Hendrioks. This gave him an
unanimous nomination. The an
uouncement of the result was re
ceived with a perfect ovation, the
flags and banners of the othei
states gathered around the Indi
anan delegation and waved amid
the shouts of the crowd and
strains of music.
Gov. Hendricks was not : n the
convention. When he found that,
his name would be presented, he
prudently remained at his hotel,
but it is understood that he will,
in response to the wish of his par
ty, accept and make the race.
Tbe convention adjourned on
Saturday. The nomination war
accepted as satisfactorally by ev
erybody except the Tammany
Hall crowd, who walked around
with crape tied in their button
holes.
Before adjournment the news
had been flashed all over thecoun
try, and congratulatory telegrams
came pouring in from every quar
ter, while the delegatesscatterd to
the four winde to carry the en
thusiasm to every State and dis
trict.

Dcasocrwllc (Mallei im
Mr. Morrison, of Illinois, Chair
man of the committee on Resolu
tions, reported a platform which
was adopted. Ben Butler report
ed another, differing in some re
spects, but in the main including
tbe same principles, but it faded
to receive the endorsement of the
convention.
We «ive below that portion of
ths platform arraigning the Repub
lican party, but on account es its
great length, we have summerized
the declaration of principles as set
forth :
The platform of the Democrat
ic parly of tne union, Droughts
representatives in national ccDven
tior assembled, recognize '.hat as
a nation glows older, new issues
are born of time and progress,
and old issues perish, but the fun
damental principles of the demo
crate approved by the united voice
of the people,remain axd will ev
er remain as thobeat and only se
carity for the continuance of free
government. the perservation
of personal rights, the equality of
citizens before the law. The re
served rights of the states and
the supremacy of the federal gov
ernment within the limits of the
constitution, will ever form the
true basis of our liberties, and
can never be surrendered without
destroying that ballance of rights
and powers which enables the couti
nent to be developed in peßce, and
social order to be maintained by
the means of local self govermen'.
But it is indispensable for the pr ic
tical application end enforcement
of these fundamental principles
thai the government should not
always be eontroled by one politi
cal party. A frequent change of ad
ministration is as necessary as a
constant recurence to the popular
will. Otherwise abuses glow and
the government, instead of beii g
carried on fer the general welfare
becomes an instrumentality for irn
posing heavy burdens upon many
who are goveined for the benefit
of the few who govern. The pub
lie servants thus become arbitaiy
Ibis is now the condition of the
country ; hence a change is de
manded
REPUBLICANISM ARRAIGNEI).
The republican partv, so f«r as
principle is concerned, ia a remin
iscence. In practice it is an or
ganization for enriching tb; se who
control its machinery. The frauds
and jobbery which have been
brought to light in every depart
ment of the government are suffi
cient to have .wiled for reform
within the republican party yet
those in authority, made recklesb
by long possession of powe», have
succumbed to its corrupting iuflu
tion a ticket agait at which the in
dependent porti on of the party are
in open revolt. Thereto; e a change
is demanded. .Such a change was
alike necessary in 1876, but the
will of the | e pie was th«n def at.
ed !>y fraud, which can never be
forgotteu nor condoned. Again
in 1880 a change was demanded
by tbe people, but was defeated
by the lavish use of money, con
tributed by unscrupulous contrac
tors and homeless jobbers, who
I ad bargained for unlawful profits
or for high offices. The republi
can party, during its stolen and
bought tenures of power, has
steadily decayed in moral charac
ter and political capacity. Its
pla'form promises are a rnvre list
of its ptisi failures.
It demands the restoration of
our navy It has squanders 1
hundreds of ailiione to create a
navy that does not exist.
It calls upon congress to remove
the burdens under which Ameri
can shipping has been depressed.
It imposed and Las continued
time burdens.
*lt professes a policy of reserv
ng the public landa for small hold
ings by a :tual eati lers.
It has given away the people’s
heritage, till now a few railroads
and non-resident aliens, individual
and corporate, poeeess a larger
area than that of ail es our farm 1 -
between the two seas.
It professes preference for free
iastitutions. It organized and
tried to legalize the control of
state elections by federal troops.
It professes • desiie to elevate
labor. It has subjected Ameri
can working men to the competi
tion of tbe convict and imported
contract tabor.
It professes gratitude to al/ who
were disabled or died in the war
leaving widows and orphans. It
left to ’the democratic house of
representatives tbe first effort to
equalize both bounties and pen
sions.
It ptroffers a pledge to correct
the irregularities of our tariff. It
created and has coxtinued them.
Its own tariff commission confess
ed the need of more than 20 per
cent reduction. Its congress gave
a redt ction of less than 4 per-cent
It professes the protection of
American manufacturers. It has
subjected them to an increasing
flood of manufactured goods and
hopeoless competition with manu
facturing n»tions, not one of which
taxes raw noaterials.
It professes to protect American
industries. It has impoverished
the many to subsidize the few.
It professes the protection of
American labor. It has tiepleted
the returns of American agricnl
ture, an industry followed by half
our people.
It professes the equality of all
men before the law, attempting to
fix the status of the coloied citi
zen. The acts of it congress were
I overruled by the decisions of its
1 courts. >
It the duty of lead
ing in the work of progreas and
reform. Its caught criminalsare
permitted to escape through con
tinued delays, or the actual conni
vance in a prosecution Honey
combed with c rruption the ou’
breaking of exposures no longer
shock its moral sense its honest
members, its independent journals
no longer maintain a successful
coutest for authority in its coun
sels, or a veto upon bad nomina
tions.
That a change is necessary is
proved by an existing surplus of
more than $100,000,000, which
has yearly been collected from the
suffering people- It is unnecessa
ry taxation. It iauujust taxation.
We denounce the republican par
ty for having failed to relieve
tbe people from the crashing war
taxes which have paralyzed busi
ness, crippled industry, and de
prived labor of employment, and
of just leward.
The Democracy pledges itself to
purify tbe administrution from
corruption, restores economy, re
vive respect for law and reduce
taxes.
TBE TARIFF FLANK
The democratic party is pledged
to revise the tariff in a spirit of
fairness tc all interest, but iu mak
ing a reduction in taxes it is not
proposed to injure any domestic in
dustries, but rather to promote
their heahbly growth. From the
foundation of ibis government tax
es collected at the cnstoin-bouse
have been tbe chief source of feder
al revenue. Such they must eonti
nue to be. Moreover, many indua
tries have come to rely npou legis
lation foi their successful contin
uance, so that any change of the
law must be, at every step regard
ful of the labor and capital thus
involved. The process of reform
must be subject in execution to
this plain dictate of justice. All
Uxatiou eball be liminted te the
requir ments of economical gov
ernment. The necessary reduc
tion in taxation can and must I •
fleet, d w ithout depriving Ameri
can lul 01 of the bility to compete
successfully without foreign labor,
and without imposing lower rates
of duty that will be'&mp’e to cover
any increased cost 0/ production
which way eiist in consequence
of the higher rate of wages pre
vailing in this country. Sufficient
revet ue to pay all expenses of the
federal government, economically
administered, including pensions,
interest and principle of the pub
lic dibt. can begot under our pres
nut system of taxation from custom
house taxes or fewer imported ar
ticle B.beuriug heoviett on articles
of luxury and ligbeet onarliclee of
necessity. We therefore de
nounce the abueea of the existing
ariff, subject to tbe proceeding
I limi aliens we demand that feder
al taxation shall be exclusively for
I public purposes, xnd shall not ex
ceed the needs of the government
economically administered.
Internal revenue is a war tax
pensions and relieving the people
of the burden of war.
The Monroe doctrine endorsed
—lloDest money—gold and silver
or a medium convertable into
money.
Equality of all men Aefc.ro the
law, and a free ballot and fair
count.
Federal officers in the tertoi y

Condemns sumptuary la-vs and

Favors the separation of church

A sensational dispatch comes
