It 1s not tho beginning of a struggle for offico or emolument, for the gratification of private or personal ambition, but 1t is full of the deepest gnificance to the welfare and happiness of 60,000,000 peo ple and to the preservation of fres gov ment. [Applause.| No errorshould be com mitied in the bezinning. I am directed to preseat to you the name of a city which stands in the very heart of this mighty nation, stands withio fifty miles of the ceater of population, stands almost in the territorial center of the country—tho city of Cincinnati 1ts tacilities for the comfort of tho conven tion, for 1ts accommodation in avery respect, bave never been questioned.

We have excellent railroad factiitics and wo have our areat music hall with a seating cap of 7,000—ample for this convention. We ar fully prepared, Mr. Chairman, to give to thi committeo the usual guaranteo for meotin the expenses of the committee and all other usual expenses upon a liberal scale.

[Ap- plause.| Our city is a city which knows no sectionalism and it stands upon the border line of the north and south. We invite you cordially and earnestly to visit our city, be- lioving that it will bo for the party’s good and the country’s good to select Cincinnati.’* [Applause. | Ir. Follette's Ex-Congressman John I, Folletto was the second speaker in behalf of Cincinnati. *Cin cinnatiand the federal constitution,” said he, “ure of the same uge. Tho century just drawing to aclose was innugurated by a do r.ocratic president and the founder of the democratic purty. Thomas Jeffersou—|great applause| —,the last of the illustrious line of demaocratic presidents preeding the war, was nominated at Cincinnati—{applause] —.and I belive that ail that is necessary for tho demo- cratic party to again assume control of the wovernment and inaugurate an urbroken lino of domocratic presidents is to nominato our men at Cincinnati. |[Renewed applase. | “Lot us close the century with the grand- our with which it was opened, and start a new century with tho democratic presidents av the bead and the democratic party in power and our country agaiu upon a new era of prosperit. “If you hold the convention iu Cincinnati I will jolu hands with my colleagues in pledging to the nowines of the convention the electoral vota of the' state of Ohio.” [Great applause. | In Detroit's Interests. The claims of Detroit were first presented by ex-Congressman Maybury. “If thero is a state 1o the union where it has cost martyrdom to be ademocrat it is the state of Michigau. It has required the cour- age of conviction for the last thirty vears to stand up in that state in tho fac of defeat and voice the creed of your political party, But 1 am glad (o say today, in the presence of a democratic governor standing here in your midst, that the day has dawned for Michigan aud the shadow aud the gloom has passed away. |P’rolcaged applause. | ““Two yours ago wo redeemed Michigan to the democratic party, by not only electing u governor, but a democratic logislature in both branches. |Applauso.] Wo have adopted a system by which olectors of the state of Michigan will be elected by districts and the president on that svstem will ropre sent what he ought to represent—the lower house of cougress in this couatry. [ Applause. | Wo have already counted oight eloctoral votes from Michigan. [Applause.| Thus, wherever you go for your candidato we will bring you eight electoral votes, out if you come to our city ‘wo will brinz von every electoral vote for the state of Michigan. [Prolonged applause.| Come to Michigan and we will point to vou a land across the river divided from us only by the water glistening in the sunlight, we will show you a_people of our own blood, our kinsmen, with haunds full of what wo want, yot in the center of that stream is a shotted gunboat saying, ‘Undor the system which prevails in this country you shall not have commercial rolations with vour ueighbors.” [Applause.] Come to see that system and you will go back saying that that system has existed long enough and no commercial policy will prevent you dealing fairly with your neighbors. | Apptause.| Come to the state sud city where Goneral Lowis Cass first establisned the rulo and the home of self-gove:nment: to the state and city whero the memory of his virtue lingers as tho twilight lingers long aftor the sun has set, |Great appl Libepally Applauded. Congressman Chipman of Michigan, as the second speaker for Detroit, oulogized all the other cities ui the race and said: “But we want this couvention in the west, where, in our judgment, it will da the most good. Thero are but five states in which the choic suould rest for this convention. Thoy are Miunosota — [applause| — Wisconsin [applause] —1ltinofs—(applausel snd Mich on, igan.

But above all, come to the great west. [Great applause. | innupolis Speakers, Indianapolis was represented by United tutes Senator Turple. “Our city," said he, “has twenty-eight hotels, with accommoda- tions for 20,000 gwests, Then there aro res- taurant A boarding bouse accommodations for 21,000 more.

Charles L. Jewett, chairman of thie Indiana state central committee, followed Senator Turpie “Indiana is ona of the greatest politic battle grounds, In 1872 Indiana went for Grant, in 1576 for Tildan, in 1580 for Garfield, in 1884 for Cleveland—[applause| —and in 1888 for Harrison. It is close and debatablo ground, gentlemen, and it will encourage wnd uplitt the democrats of Indiaua to bold this conveuti in Indianapolis, But we propose Lo carry Indiana, if possible, whother you give us the convention or not.” [Ap piause, | Kansas City's Attractla The claims of Kansas City were first pre sented by Hon, Mr. Putnam. He said tbat with the oxcaption of New York and Chicazo there was not a city in the United States that enjoved the facilities that Kansas City enjoyed to enable the represcntatives of the democravy to assomblo. ‘Tho hotel accom modations would accommodate ail the delegates who might be present at the convention, as well as the numerous visitors, There would be erected a convention building, andif required that bullging would be constructed accord- ing to plans spproved by the committee. The telegraph system of Kansas City wus second to no city, with the excoption of New York and Chicugo. In conclusion he said that if the convention was brought to tha city he represented the delegates would be allowed to shake over something a little stronger than Obio river water. |Applause and Inughter. | :nator Vest's appearance on the speaker's stand was the signal for prolonged applause. Ho spoke in & conversational tone and dirccted most of his remarks toward an eulogy of the accommodation that could be aflorded by Kansas City. Ho assumed that this convention would go to the west. [Ap- plause, Euloglzed Tu New York did not need this convention and should not have it. New York was the battle-ground of the convention to ve called, and for that 1eason, if no other, New York should not be selected. New York ‘was too great, financially, numerically sud politically to need the aid of any couvention, and, besides that, New York had, Tammany, and Tammaoy v/as largor than any conven-: tion. [Applause ana laughter.| Tammany had no_division about a platform or candi- date. (Laughter.] There was no acrimo nious dobate heurd in those traditional halis. He suid that with all kindness to Tammany, for he was an honorary member of tbat society —[iaughter|—he ~ did not belong to the ranks of thoso gentlomen whose velvety . conscience and _ silkon ears wore turned by the shouts of the Tammany braves as they scattered in flight the broken hopes of the ropublican party. |Ap- plause.| The claws of Tammany's tiger, crimsonied today as they were with radi- cal blood, had no terrors for any ono excent an enemy of true democracy. [Applause.| Now York did not need the convention and should not haveit. Chicago, the imperial city of the inland sea, did not need 1t and should not have it. Nor should the conven- tion go to tuat pleasant and heautiful city of Miiwaukee, The democrats wanted a_city which was individually and distinct- ively and cosmopolitan and was mot shadowed by an immense city within eighty miles of it. St. Paul should not _ask for the convention. One of the charges made by the republican party was that the demo- cratic party camped ons year where the re- publicans “had camped tho year preceding, and it was time that the aemocrats should follow their own policy. Kansas City was a cosmopolitan city. It was democratic, but its people knew no flag but that which decked the walls of the hall. [Applause. ] Admitted Missourl Was Dema If 1t wero urged that Missouri was a dem- ocratic state ho admitted the soft impeach- ment. [Laughter.| [t was a democratic stato and, like the old guard of Napoleon, the democracy of the state might die but 1t wou'd never surrender. Missouri was a democratic state, and her votes would be given to the democratic candidate whether tae conven- tion went to Kan Ctty or not;the destiny of the democratic party would bo the destiny of the domocrats of Missouri. TApplause. | Governor Peck of Wiscons The claims of Milwaukeo were first ad- vanced by Governor Peck of Wisconsin. He came, he'said, not to fight gentlomen, but to g0 1nto a race with thoroughbreds. He came om a stats whers democracy had bean walked upon for forty years that he knew of. Things were different now. [Laughter.] The old democrats had raised boys who had begun to vote where their [fathers left off, and Wisconsin - was now democratic by 30,000. [Applause.] There was 1ot a republican 10 the capitol of Wisconsin from dome to basement, except one colored wan, and he was kept for luck. [Laughtor.| If the democrats of Wisconsin had done wrong he hoped they would be told s0. [Laughter.] Though he urged the claims of Milwaukee, ho declared that wher- over the convention was held, and whoever was the candiaate, Wisconsin would give the democratio nominee twelve olectoral votes. It could et & few more. All Promised Wisconsin's Vote, Major Somors of Milwaukee, though warmly pressing the claim of Milwaukee, spoke in a vein of party patriotism, and de- clared that the twelve votes of Wisconsin would be found in the democratic column whether or notMilwaukos was givan the convention, and no mutter who the candiaate might, be. Mr. Dounelly of Wisconsin was the next speaker, and he also advocated the selection of Milwaukee The claims of New York were prosentod by James Breslin, Mr. Myers, comptroller of the city, and Colonel John Fellows. M. K. "Tarpoy of Califoraia portraved the advantage which would accrue from the se- lection of San Francisco, and was followed by Mr. V. . Coleman of California, who spoke in the same voin. St Paul's Argaments, Hon. T. W. Lawler of St. Paul was the first spoaker in bohalf of that city. Ho caused a telogram to be reaa, signed jointly by the mayors of St. Paul and Minneapolis, making every reauisite pledge for the accom modation of the convention and the enter- tainment of visitors. ““The twin cities of Minnesota, comprising a population of more than 300,000, said Mr. Lawler, “jow in & petition that the national convention be located at St. Paul.'! “I feel,” said ex-Congressman Wilson, the next spéaker. “that tho democracy of the great northwest nhus beeu over- looked by the democracy of the nation. This has been true not particulurly of Minnesota, but of the entire northwest, If the democratic ranks are to bo recruited 1t must bo from the northwestern states. If this convention goss to Wisconsin we will not be mourners, 1f it goes anywhere clse wo will not sulk. But let us remember tho northweat. lowa, with its onco 50,000 republican majority, is now a doubiful state. (Applause.] The Dakotas will not much longer consent to pay tribute to the favored few. In 1584 Blaino carried Minnesota by 42,000. Tn IS88 Havrison cur- ried it by but 2.2) votes —aud that, too, only by the most prodigious use of mondy and the assistance of the railroads. [Prolonged ap plause.| Lf they had kept their hands off we woutd have carried the state. [Applause. ‘What the Alliance is For, “My friends, you have not looked at the northwest. We never ran on an issue but the {ssue of free democracy, and every battle we have won bus boon upou that issu. And every man who has come to us has come to stay and will bring auother noxt year. |Ap plause. | “There s an allisnce movement in the vorthwest. Eliminate a fow of its charlatans and the alliance 1s but a protest against re publican tule. From the alliance ranks is veing recruited our party. ‘To our New York friends I will say, 1 guess we would 010 study your methods. Yet there are na old farmers who do noL know much w . thiok these methods could perbaps be uny wed.

A Renegnde Ameri; for th an Largely Responsible Trouble, Julio Foster is probably more respon- sible than any one Jindividual for the misunderstanding between the two coun- tries, writes the Washington corre- spondent of the Chicago Tribune. He is a native of Pannsylvania, who went to Chili forty years ago, married a Chilian woman and became a citizen of vhat country. He hates the United States with all the rancor of a renegude. For weeks he peddled around Washington complaints and slanders against the American minister, the consul to Val- paraiso and the naval officers. He drew up an indictment of eighteen counts against the United States, which in- cluded all the grievances, real and fancied, of the Chilians for the last twenty vears. Though he had no official standing, this was not known for awhile, and what he said was given the weight which naturally might attach to one of the congressional envoys, Besides the prominence of his son, his son-in-law was one of the leaders of the congressional party und an_influential member of the Chamber of Deputies, Ior this renson officials in Washington oxtended Minister Montt the widest charity in not holding him responsible for Foster’s actions, though Foster lived at the legation, and went everywhere that Montt did until Mr. Blaine refused to receive him at the State department. It was seon, showever, with his influ- ential kin in Chili, Foster might have a standing with Montt because of the min- ister’s fear of offending his son and son- in-law. Foster, however,was in communication with Chilians on his own account. His contempt of the United States wrs groat. He saw his slanders published in mug- wump and democratic papers, and the efforts of President Harrison’s adminis- tration to uphold the national honor ridiculed. He may, therefore, have been excused for believing "that this country would never go to war to avenge the Baltimore outrage, It is pretty cer- tain that he communicated his views to his son, the judge of crimes, and this may have accountek for the judge’s in- solent tone and for the bias with which he conducted the investigation. —_—— Minneapolis Tumbled. Hon. J. J. Richardson, Iowa member of the national democratic committee, has been telling this story down eas The managing editor of Mr. Richard son’s paper had an experience with M ser West of the West house in Minneupolis which was very racy. He wanted to obtain accommodations for a corps of reporters at the republican na- tional convention, and wrote a letter to Mr. West three days after the selection of Minneapolis as a place for hoiding that meeting, requesting that & room should bo assigned to the Dayenport Democrat. He received a reply in which Mr. Wost said that he was al ready in receipt of ten times more appl cations for rooms than he had room, and that it would be impossible to assign a place as requested. The managing editor promptly replied to Mr. West’s epistle in _ about this strain “My Deur Sir—i am sorry that you cannot accommodate the Da venport Democrat with a room. Tam nevertheless thankful to you for your frankness in admitting that the cities of Minnenpolis and St. Paul are not ca- puble of accommodating a groat conven- tion, which you do by refusing to assign & room to the leading dsmocratic paper of the state of Towa. The owner of this paper, Mr. J.J. Richardson, is a mem- berof the democratic national committeo and is being deeply importuned to vote for Paul for the location of the demo- cratic national convention, You ean readily undovstand that under the of cumstauees he will not be favorably im- pressed with the accommodations which the democratic national convention would have in the Twin Cities.” The Daverport Domocrat coutd have nad u whole loor in the West House according to the reply which Mr. West sent to this sarcastic létter. B A Valuable Gold Coln, One of the first gold coins struck by the United States mint is in the posses sion of OfMcer Charles I, Strouse of the Twenty-fourth police district of Phila- delphia. The coin is an eagie made in 1796, and’has been an heirfoom in the family for threo genorations, having heen given to his grandmother, Mrs, Elizabeth Kvewson, at the Gray's Ferry ursenal, in puyment for clothing mada for the troops sent to the Mexican war, The old lady wrappsd the coin in o handful of the thread used in sew- ing the _ soldi uniforms and wound the whole about with two yards of blue tape, used in binding the coats, pants and vests. The thread and tape are in u good state of preser vation. Mrs, Krowson died at the ad- | vanced ago of 85 years, and while on her deathbed gave the coin 'to Oficer Strouse’s mother, Margaret Strouse, who in turn gave it to him. The coin is valued ut the mint at from $21.50 to 7, but Officer Strouse has already been offerea $40 for it. There ure only two like it in the possession of the Phili delphia mint, The first gold coin mado in the United States was struck in 1795, - den Change to Left-Hand Threo vears ago a young lady of Fall River, Mass., was hit upon the left side of the nead by u falling sign us she was walking ulong u street in Boston, says the Post. This was followed by brdin fever., /fter some weeks she was as woll in mind and body as over, but from a right-handed person she had become cut, sew, nor write with her right hand, but found it casy to do all these things with hor left. Her right hand was just about ns useful s her left had been bo- fore she was hurt. What is steung that, with so recent u change in the use of her bands, she never mnkos no awh ward motion, wnd is as graceful i use of her left hand as if she had been born left-hunded. % | The following table shows the strength of | the | Two Lincoln Maideris With Bad Blood in Their Yétng Hearts, BIT, SCRATCHED, SQUEALED AND SLUGGED Tre ital City People 4 to w Wighly Edifylng ConteSt for the Afections of a Young Wah Between Two Handsome Girl Lixcory, Neb., Jan. 21.—[Special to.Tne Bre.]—One of the most disgraceful sights ever witnessed on the streets of the capital city was seen at the corner of Twelfth and M streets at noon today. Two young women, each apparently about 20 years of age, stopped each other on the street corner and after a wordy encounter came to blows. Tne smaller girl of the two accused the other of tamperiag with the affections of a young man and from mere accusations the two passed to oaths and billings gate seldom heard outsido of a bar- room. Then the smaller girl knocked tho larger oue down and scratched and clawed in true feminine fashion. Iu the meantime a crowd of probably 100 men had assembled, but not onelifted a hand to put a stop to the disgraceful affair until after the second knock-aown. 'he spectacle of the girl prostrate iu the gutter, her face bleeding profusely and ner clothiog torn and muddy flually moved a bystander to wterfere. The pugilistically inclined fomale was aftorwards arrested. At the police station she gave her name as Louise Lindsev. She claimed that the other girl had stepped between hor and her affianced husband, wio 18 a cook or waiter at one of the restaurants in this city. Nebraska's Military Strength, In view of the threatening aspect of the Chilian complications and the possibility that the state may be called upon to furalsh her quota of the volunteer forces that may be sent to Chil,, a few facts concerning N braska’s military strength will be interest- ing. According to the last report of the ad- jutant general the Nevraska National euard consists of two regiments of infantry, one battery of artillery and one troop of cavalry. The enlisted men number 925 und there are an oven hundred officers. In equipmeat the Nebraska troops will suffer by comparison with those of other states. ‘Their uniforms are condemned by the adjutant general as being almost unfit for use. They are, or were on the date of the last report, without overcoats, blunkets, knapsacks, haversacks or canteens, all of which would be necessary in the event of their being called into active service. However, all of the officers, and undoubtedly most of the men, would relish the idea of a summer jaunt to' the other end of the hemisphere, even though the pleasure of the trip would be marred by danger of death. Lincoln's Now Postoflice. The citizens of Lincoln are highly elatod over the fine_appearance their new federal building appears on paper, and Congressman Bryan wiil bo given overy assistanca and en- couragement in his,eforts to pass it through congress. His bill_provides for a million dollar building, to ba erected on the prosent postoftico squars . or upon any other sito tha. , secrctary of tho treasury may selet. The bill further provides that as s00n as the new building is completed the old tederal building shall bo turned over by the secretary of tho treasury to tho city of Lincoln for such use as the municipal authorities may direct. Iu tho event of tha passage of the bill Lin- coln will have a postofiice and custom house fully commensuratd to her needs. The build- ing at present-occupiad by the postofiice will, in caso it is donatod-e-the city, be used as a city hall. An Old Dispute Adjusted The McDonald Buclstaft titigation, which bas been' pending indistrict court for so lon a time, was adjusted by & compromise today, and the caso will not figure on the dockets in tho future. 'L'ho caso is one erowing out of the paving contracts in this city. McDonald claimed to havo a certain percontage of the pronts. Under tho contract hoe claimod £20,000, and applied for an_injunction to re Straia the city from paying over to Buckstaft the umount still due him.
