In 1870, five years after this failure, he was elected sheriff of Erle county, and tn Noveiber, 1881, was elected mnayor of Buffalo by a decisive majority. Mis in- cumbency of the office was successful and popular.

Cleveland has a vigorous, robust constitu- ton. “He possesses a large frame, 1s inclined to cor- pulency, has a nervous, ‘sanguine temperament, ight complexion, thin brown hair, with a tendency. to baldness. His residence is the executive mansion, about half a mile distant from the capitol, at Al: bany, and he always walks in both directions, from. and to his home. It 1s a curious coincidence that Gov.

Opinions of Demecratic Congressmen and @thers, ‘There was considerable enthustasm manifested by democrats in this city over their completed ticket, but It aid not run long. By 10 o'clock last night there was general quiet in the city. “WHAT WILL JOUN KELLY DO?” 18a question that was asked, on every hand. The republicans are counting somewhat upon Tam- many’s defection, their idea being that Kelly will give Cleveland but a half-hearted support, and that the democratic majority in New York city will be materially cut down. Among democrats there 1s general rejoicing that Tammany was put gown. Senator Pugh, of Ala- bama, after expressing his satisfaction with the Uecker, sald the party would ha " elt had it submitted to Tammany’s dictation. The conduct of the Tammanyites at Chicago has ren- dered democrats very bitter towards them. All the past sins of the organization are ree: denounced in unmeasured terms. crats, talking of the situation, declared that Tam- many Was responsible for the deteat of Hancock. MR. COX SATISFIED WITH THE TICKET AND PLATFORM. Mr. Cox, of New York, when scen by a STAR re- porter at his house last evening, expressed his satis- faction with the result of the convention. He sald he had the highest personal regard for Cleveland, and was consequently well pleased with his nomt— nation. Tammany, le sald, would certainly sup- port the nominee, and New York would ve carried g00d majority, How about Ben Butler?” asked Tar Star man. “1 presume Butler will bolt, but those who think he represents the real hard-working men of the country are mistaken. My district in New York 13 composed almost entirely of laboring men. ‘There is hardly a man in the district who 1s not an hon- est, hard worker, who supports himself and famt- ly, if he hasone, by the toll of his hands. ‘They are horny-handed working men, Not one of these can Butler carry out of the democratic party. When he clalns that in his protection expressions he rep- Tesents the laboring element of the country it 1s a delusion. ‘These men know that the deiuocrattc party is of them and represents their best Interests. They are always democrats.” “How do you lke the platform?” “It is a clear expression of democratic principles. Tam a thorough revenue reformer, and it sauisfes mer: ‘VIEWS OF OTHER CONGRESSMEN. Senator Garland spoke in high terms of all the men who were before the convention, but he sald there were reasons which made Cleveland the strongest nomination. He believes the ticket nom- inated yesterday wiil be elected. Representative Lowry, of Indiana, satd: “Iam delighted with the ticket_and the platform. Itis just the platform I wanted.” Representative Casey Young, of Tennessee, re- gards the Ucket as the strongest that could Nave Deen made. “We don’t know Cleveland on the Pacific coast,” sald Representative Sumner, of California, “I guess AU's # good nominatio: “Tt is a very respectable nomination,” said Mr. Holman. 11's “THE OLD TICKET.” During the balloting for Vice President a crowd of at least a thousand persons were assembled in front of the Western Unton telegraph office, When | it became evident that Hendricks was to be nomi- nated, the democrats tn the crowd seemed e¢ ‘They Comld not shout, because thetr voices trem- Died with excitement, but in a husky whisper the Would Say, “ICs the Old ticket; 15 the old tk As late &8 nine o'clock, long’ alter the aunoune Ment of the ourhment of the convention, the crowd still lingered about the window. Just as the shout that greeted the announcement of the nomination of Hendricks and the fina! ad- jJournment went up Seeretary Chandler passed in his carriage with his wife, atid craned his neck to gel a peep at the bulletin, SENATOR MORGAN, OF ALABAMA SATISFIED WITH THE TICKET AND PLATFORM, Senator Morgan, of Alabama, sald of the ticket: “Yes, [like it, I Unink it 18 the best that could have been made.” The Senator added that the ticket comprises elements of strength which no other combination would have possessed. Hendricks, he sald, would satisty sentiment, would arouse the enthustasm of old democrate, while Cleveland will command the support of the’ progressive elements in politics. With regard to the platform, he would not change it in any parucutar. He thinks it an ement of political truths, and was glad the word “resolve” does not appear in it “The platform,” he sald, “starts:the democratic forces once more in the direction 6f proper taritt reform. I think,” sald autor Morgan In conclusion, “that the two national conventions—republi n and dem- pushed the country forward; both etaken big men. Both parties have placed in the field. in statesmen,” Senator in the room of the Senate miiit Senator Logan. He said, jocularly: “You see I have come here to beard the ifon tn Lis den. SENATOR LOGAN SAYS THE PLATFORM MEANS FREE TRADE. Senator Logan Ustened to Gen. Morgan’s com- ments, occasionally throwing in a word, but when sked by Tue Stax reporter for his opinion of the democratle ticket he declined to say anything. Morgan was discussing the democratic platform Gen. Logan remarked to him: “Oh, it euits you because it means tree trade.” “Well, it means ireer trade,” replied Gen. Mor- gan. REPRESENTATIVE BLACKBURN SAYS IT IS “ NONE OF ‘MY WORK.” Meeting Representative and Senator-elect Black- burn, the reporter expressed surprise that he had not gone to Chicago. “God forbid!” he exclaimed. “ That 1s none of my work.” “Don't you like the ticket?” inquired the re- porter. “T intend to support {t with all the energy and ability T've got,” Was the evasive reply. It was lain enough iat Mr. Blackburn was d isappolnted. He wanted Thurman, he sald, who would have surred democratic entiustasm from Maine to Call- fornia, and have “ r the course like a thor- oughbred.” He was severe upon the ant-Thurman meh of the Olio di tion for having so obsti- nately refused to vote tor Thurman. NOTHER KENTUCKY OPINION. Representative Willis, of Kentucky, thinks that, all things considered, the tcket 13, perhaps, the Dest that could have been made, but he evinced a strong leaning towards Thurman. He said, how- Tr. that Clevelané would get a bigger Indépend- ent vote than Thurman. “have no doubt in the World of the election of the ticket,” added Mr, Wills. . WEST VIRGINIA WILL SUPPORT THE TICKET. Representative Gibson, of West Virginia, sald: «the Ucket and platform satisfy our people, and West Virginia will give Cleveland a big majority.” He was more than pleased with the work of the convention Mr. Wilson had no doubt that the dyn but, he added, it would go to lm no matter whd headed the deinocratic ticket, and he believed the Support of that element wonid drive thousands of conservative men, who are opposed to risking any disturbance with foreign nations, to Cleveland. POSTMASTER GENERAL GRESHAM THINKS BLAINE WILL CARRY NEW YORK. Postmaster Gencral Gresham says he thinks the Tepublican chances for carrying New York are greatly Increased by the nomination af Cleveland. “it Kelly bolts,” he says, “Blaine can carry New York eashiy, but'we can carry 1t anyhow.” “How about the Independents?” asked’ Tre SraR reporter. “I don’t know,” was thereply. “I presume some will vote for Cleveland, but there 1s no certainty about that. They have the two tickets before them now, and between this and the election they have time to consider the matter. Many who are undecided now may make up their minds to vote for Cleveland. Many on the other hand who now think they will go with the democrats, will change their minds when they come toeonsider the matter more seriously.

NAMING CANDIDATES FOR NOMINATION FOR VICE PRESIDENT. The roll of states was then called for nomina- tons for Vice President. Mr. Searles, of California, Presented the name of Gen.

HENDRICKS’ POSITION DISCUSSED. Senator Wallace, of Pennsylvania, sald he noml- inated as a candidate for Vice Prestdent a man con- Versant with public affairs throughout his whole Ufe, an honored statesman, a pure and upright ctt- Wen, a victim of the groscest fraud ever perpetra- ted on the American people—Thomas A.

[Cheers.} Mr. Waller, of Connecticut, seconded the nomt- nation of Hendricks, and sald’that the democratic party would, in defiance of fraud and In accordance Qiith law, place him in the chair of the Vice Presi- ent. ‘The presentation of Mr. Hendricks name was greeted with enthusiastic ‘cheers—the convention Tepeating in a lesser degree the scene which took place at the morning session in honor of the same | gentleman. Mr. Menzies, of Indiana, declared emphatically that Mr. Hendricks was hot and could not be a | candidate for the Vice Presidency. He lad been authorized by Mr. Hendricks himself to | Say so. He, therefore, warned the convention not to do that which 1t would have to undo. Mr. Walsh, of Georgia, asked Menzies whether he was authorized to say that Mr. Hendricks would not accept U unanimous nomination of the | Uonal democratic convention for the offic uf Vice | President.

[Cheers} Mr. Harris, of Virginia, united the votce of Vir- gina with that of the Keystone state. {Cheers} Mr. Searles, of California, withdrew the nomina- tion of Rosecrans. The other nominees were all withdrawn one by one, so that Mr. Hendricks alone remained before the convention. aspirited speech Gov.
