Dearborn and atthemteof nmnn Pm: Thomasville Tlmes-Enterprlse was the first paper to reach Albany with the result of the balldt In the Ohloago convention this morning. Don't you know that “tired feeling" had Its grip on the crowd that went out of the Democratic Wigwam in Chicago after nominating Cleveland at 8 dO this morning. Tna principal business of the South in both political parties Is to vote. The Southern vote nominated Harrison at Minneapolis, and it was the Southern vote that gave the nomination to Cleveland at Chicago. Editob WiitTKH, of the Thomasville News, is writing long reviews of the campaign In the Second Congres sional distrlot and treating the sub ject as a thing of the past and that has been finally settled. Hpkoui.s from Paris to the Ameri can press say that oholera Is extend ing In the manufacturing suburbs of that city. Eight persons died Monday from the disease at Aubertburg, five miles north of Paris. It seems as though the dreadful epldemlo was slowly but steadily spreading. Ir Mrs. Whitelaw Reid, wife of the Republican nominee for Vice Presi dent, does go to Washington after the 4th of March next, she will be a de cided acquisition to Washington so ciety. Mrs. Reid was Miss Elisabeth Hills, daughter of the California millionaire, before her marriage. Mr. Reid was past forty years of age when he married, and his wife Is consider ably hla Junior. They have three bright, sturdy children, who are reared simply under mild but firm discipline. siwiib distuict politico CLEVELAND AND STEVENSON CUVBLMD nominated ON Ml FIBHT BALLOT. DImmm* hr M Albany Man la Setae. Homebody—the II child doesn’t know who—has been down to Savannah and was Interviewed by a reporter of the Press on the situation in the Second Congressional distrlot. In the “Bocal News and Comment" column of the Press, always Interesting, we find the following i I was talking to a prominent poli tician from Albany the other day, and he spoke very entertainingly of the condition of affairs In the Second dis trlot. “There Is going to be a peck of trouble In the Seoond distrlot, and Demoorats In the Btate and outside of the distrlot may be called upon for ad vice to unravel the troubles In our bailtwiok. “You cannot Imagine how things are mixed up, and no one can estimate the amount of trouble there is going to orop out." “Well tell me all about It." “The story Is brief df narration. You see, Col. Stevens is ‘sweeping things,’as the boys say. He Iscnptur- ing all the oounties, and when the nominating convention goes In session J t Albany he will have a clear majority. am sure that even Ben Russell will admit thla. But here 1s where the trouble comes in. Stephens, you know, Isbaokedby the Alliance. Now, the Alllanoemen In the distrlot are—that la, a great majority of them are—Third Party men. Here is oomes.” “Ilowf" “Why, as a matter of fact the Third •arty is controlling a Democratic con vention. The President of the Alilanoe in the district has openly said that the Alilanoe waf only holding away from the Third Party temporarily beoauae of its devotion to Col. Stevens. This President did not hesitate to tell Ben Russell that. Third party people are as thiok In the Seoond as crows at oornplantlng time, but they are mak ing no demonstration—and will make none till they are at perfeot liberty to show their hand and Stevens has the nomination. “Is Col. Stevens a Third Partyltef" “Not as I understand it. He is the Alllanoeman’s friend, however, and are devoted to him. He is a very »1 gentleman. He la not a poll- An. He does not go on the stump. J» does not talk politics muob. He is a solid oltlaen, though, and, so far as I know, noons hat a word against him. “What we don't like, and what I hope the people of the distrlot wont stand, is this Third Party oontrolling the Democratic machinery in the dis trict. 1 am told that a square kiok Is to be made in the convention, and that there will be contests against more than half of the bounty delegations. “Yes you oan put. it down that tb where the hitch you oan put it downthat there is going to be a red-hot time when the convention meets." A Pretty ■eavr Fish Starr. Peter Stroxer Is one of the hardest sort of persons to down when it oomes to originality In telling fish stories, anflio fact relating incidents of any sort. A few days ago a party of gentlemen were regaling one another In deOraf- fenretd A Co.’s store with their own and other folks’ experiences, and the fish stories kept getting better and better. Finally one of the party seemed to stump the crowd by telling about a trout whose backbone was as large as the bone of his tore arm. But the irrepressible Peter was bound to have the last say-so. “Gentlemen,” he said, “that’ll wash, but this is an occurrence, the truth of which I oan vouch for. A friend of mine and myself were fishing in a pond near here not long age, and my friend caught a trout, whose else you can imagine, when I tell you with all seriousness, that the pond fell five feet as soon as he was taken from the water.” Just then the rest of the crowd had business on Washington street, and no more stories were told in opposition to the above. Peter smiled a sigh, and turned to fill a prescription that had just eease in. Illlaele, Place. deli Meeead fCondcMed from the Wcetem Union Telegraph Company’! Bulletin.] Chicago, June 22—11 a. m. It is said this morning that Steven son, of Illinois, will be made the nomi nee for Vice Prealdent instead of Gray. A morning paper reports that a com bination has been formed to beat Cleve land and has more than one-third of the delegates. Several names are men tioned on whom the combination may be effected. At 11.12 the delegates are coming into the hall slowly. The weather Is clear and pleasant. 4 is rumored that the anti-Cleve land men will make a fight on abro gating the unit rule in order lo pre- veut a ballot being reached to-day. I.oud calls were made for Mills, and he was conducted to the platform, but was too ill to speak and had to be car ried to hla hotel. Palmer was called to the platform and made a speech. The convention was called to order at 11 fill. Some of the committees are not ready to report yet. The Cleveland men say they are going to have a ballot to-day If it takes till midnight. Wilson, of West Virginia, was elect ed permanent chairman, and made a speech, in which he appealed for har mony, said the tariff and taxation fur nished the true basis of the political issue, and denounced the McKinley bill as the greatest humbug of tho age. The ouLVention adjourned at 1:45 until 8 o'clock liiis afternoon. Cnicioo, June 28. After an all night session of the con vention, a ballot was finally reaohed and Cleveland was nominated on the first ballot at 8:20 this morning. The ballot stands as follows: Cleveland 616 Hill 112 Boles : 108 Gorman 86 Stevenson 16 Morrison 8 Carlisle 16 Campbell 2 PaUIson 1 Whitney 1 Russell 1 The greatest exoltement prevailed, and the Cleveland men went wild when the result of the ballot was am nounoed. Ohio moved that the rules be sus pended and Cleveland’s nomination be made by aoelamatlon. Daniels, of Vir ginia, seoonded the motion and it was carried, after which the convention adjourned until 2 o’clock p. m. AVTKRKOON SKBSION — WHO WILL BX VIOX l’RKSIDENT? Chicago—2:12 p. m The delegates are entering the hall slowly, and a heavy storm prevails. The chances now seem to favor the nomination of Stevenson, of Illinois, as it is olaimed he can carry his State for the Democratic ticket. AtkfiK) the convention was called to order, apd nominations for Vioe Pres ident were in order. Illinois nominated Stevenson, and was seoonded by New York. Gray, of Indiana, Roles, of Iowa, Mitohell, of Wisconsin, and Morse, of Michigan, have been placed in nomi nation, and at 4:80 the roll of States Is being called for the vote. At 4:48 the first ballot for Vice Pres ident'was announced, but many States did not vote apd there was no eleotlon. The vote stood: Stevenson, 160; Gray, 179. . In a public school in New York there are 710 pupils, all of whom but ten are ot foreign birth and language. Tbxbb doesn’t seem to have been as muoh rain in the country above as In this county, for the Kinobafoonee and Muokalee creeks show very little signs of muddying or rising.
