The democratic national conven tion at Chicago last week bat ratifi- ed the nomination of a man for Pres- ident whom the great masses of the democratic party throughout the United States had chosen months before. The only positive and avow ed enmity to Mr. Cleveland came from the Tammany organization of New York, and all others who voted against him, (with the possible ex ception of Iowa, which presented a candidate) did so because of the un- certainty of what the effect of that opposition might be at the election, and not because of any objection they entertained to the ex-president. But Tammany, through her leaders at Chicago, effectually and satisfac- torily solved that problem by pledg-| ing that organization to the hearty | and enthusiastic support of the nom inee. Governor Flower, who was the chairman of the New York dele gation, made the motion to make Mr. Cleveland's vemination unanimous. Mr. Cockran said that Tammany would show the country who the true democrats in New York are,and that Cleveland will undoubtedly carry New York this fall. A. E. Stevenson, the nominee for vice-president, is one of the strong- est men in Illinois. resented his district in congress,each time overcoming a large republican majority. He first assistant postmaster general under Mr. Vilas and being the kind of democrat who believes that to the victors belong the spoils, his axe fell rapidly upon the necks of the republican postmas- ters whereyer a good democrat stood ready to take their places. The republican party in Illinois has never had a leader since the death of John A. Logan and its ma- joritities have been gradually dimin- ishing until now that state is in the doubtful list. General Palmer car- ried the state in 1890 for senator and General Stevenson car carry it in 1892 for vice-president. AN EXUELLENT TICKET. The personnel of the ticket nomi- nated at Butler Saturday is the strongest known in Bates county pol: ities. It is made up of high-minded honorable gentlemen from head to foot, men who are worthy the suf- frage of our people, who are pre- ‘eminently well qualified to perform the duties of the respective of- fices to which they aspire, and against whose character as men and citizens not a word can be said. There were ether just as true and good men whose names were before that convention, but all could not ee- ure the prize and the verdict of a convention should be the accepted verdict of every true and loyal dem- ocrat. Now let us lay aside any an- mosities that may have been engen- dered during a heated campaign and all work together to redeem our county from the mistakes made two years ago. Every democrat had a perfect right to his personel prefer- ences before the convention and no man has a right to question his mo- tives, but after the ticket is made we should all be a unit against the common enemy. was The congressional convention at Chuton to-morrow will express to our distinguished fellow-townsman, Hon. D. A. DeArmond, the confi- dence of the democratic party of the sixth district by renominating him for congress by acclamation. This isa great honor, but one which he rightly deserves for the manly and courageous stand he has taken up- He twice rep-} rights. He bad the courage to ar- dently support the Bland silver bill, ‘while his more timid colleagues | were safely ensconsed ‘in the con- | venient cloak room. He was chosen by bis party colleagues as their | mouth-piece on the tariff debate, a |glowing tribute to the ability ofa new member,—a confidence he did | not disappoint or abuse. Judge Dee | Armond is making an enviable ‘record in congress and our people jare proud of him. It is with both pride and pleasure the Truzs notes that in the make up of the People’s party state ticket, | nominated at Sedalia !ast week, that jour fellow townsman D. N. Thomp | }gon secured the nomination for state | treasurer. In this instance the office | sought the man, as Mr. Thompson did not attend the convention, on questions affecting his aS was -|not a candidate, and did not know that his name would be sprung upon the convention, and was surprised to learn through the newspap.rs the morning after that he had been nom- inated. Mr. Thompson is President of the Farmer's Bank of this city, alarge farmer, and is numbered among our wealthy and enterprising citizens, and in his nomination the people’s party could not have found a better man for the important and honorable position. ee Cleveland received 617 votes on the first ballot. Good enough. Cleveland and Stevenson, is the winning ticket. D. A. Colyer will make a_ sheriff second to none the county ever had. President Harrison forces J.

Col. John G. Prather was re elect- ed by the Missouri delegation for national committeeman. Col. Prath- }er has served the democrats of this state faithfully and efficiently in this position for twelve years and his re- election was a high compliment to} his past services. Mr. Dana Fats Crow. New York, Jue 24.—This morn- ing’s Sun in its leading editorial says in part: “There is one question depending on the election of the next president which in its momentous importance and vital imperativeness must seem to every philosophic observer to ex ceed every other political question that people are now called upon to determine. A force bill is to exist as the inev- itable result of a sweeping republi- can victory in November. On the other hand and by the nature and necessity of the ideas involved the success of the democracy is death to the force bill. Killed in the election it can never be revived. In this view of the contest what conscien- tious democrat can hesitate about his duty. Better-vote for the liberty and the white government of the south- ern states even if the candidate were the devil himself rather than consent to the election of respectable Benjamin Harrison with a force bill ix his pocket.” New York, June 24.—J. S. Clark- son, chairman of the Republican na- tional committee, who is here, talked freely of the situation and of the nominations made yesterday. “Both conventions,” he declared, “nominat- ed good clean tickets,and both I be- lieve, fairly represents their respec- tive parties. The lines are however more stricly drawn. The fight will be one of issue of protection and honest money against free trade and dishonest money. On these issues, |I am confident, the republicans will win.

It has an awkward sound just now,but we will grow accustomed to it before November. The slate was >roken. The Indiana people thougit that they had made sure of the vie pres ident when they cast the fullvote of their state for Cleveland. They were flattered by the Clevelad peo ple until they believed the Gray would inheret Cleveland's support for the 2d piace on the ticket. 3ut the convention took the bit in it teeth, so to speak, and nominated tle vice- president itself.

There were a number of seconding speeches, after which roll call was ordered which resulted as below The names of Stevenson, Gray, Mitchell aud Morse were presented to the convention for vice president. On the first ballot the vote stood: Gray 343, Steyenson 402, Mitchell 45, Morse 87, scattering 33. Before the vote was announced enough votes were changed to Stevenson to give him more than the required ma jority, when on motion his nomina- tion was made unanimous. The Truxs will publish the plat- form in full next week. Colored Democrats Well Pleased. Chicago, June 24.—The national calored Democrats adjourned last evening after adopting resolutions indorsing Cleveland and Stevenson. A télegram was sent Grover Cleve land congratulating him upon his nomination and pledging the enthu siastic support of the colored dele gates of the entire country.

Sketch of tue Life ot the Man Nomina- ted fur tie Viee-Presidency. Chicago, June 24.—Adlia Ewing Stevenson vf Bloomington, Ill, the democratic nominee for vice presi- dent of the United States, is a native of Kentucky, having been born in Jkristian County, and will be 57 years ‘tober 23 next.

As assistant postmaster general he was outepoken in his belief that it was ademocratic duty to remove republican postmasters wherever possible and appoint democrats in their stead.
