A Cold and Silver Cayel Presented to the Convention. Ciiif Aiin, 111., June 20, 11:15 u. in Special to Thk IIkkam). The Trilmne and lltralil this morning Hay the New York delegation is divided, and that at least four of the delegates -vill not vote for Depew. This is the forecast of nil the papers as to the outcome in their dia gram of three days ago. 12:02 The Crowd is collecting slowly, and the convention will be called to or der aliout 12:00. General Snauldinir of Michigan says the suli-coniniittee on platform lifts adjourned to 8:;i0 p. m. 12:211 The convention called to order. 1:!0 Committee voted to effect per manent organization, and ex-Gov. Foster of Ohio, read the permanent organization report for platform. The report was adopted on motion of Muekee of Kentucky. Mr. Estee was made permanent chair man of the convention, making a brief ppeeeh, in which he referred to the elec tion in Oregon of two weeks ago. lioche of Illinois then took the platform and presented a solid silver and gold gavel to the convention. Mr. "Woiks of Illin ois, men presented to the chairman a gavel made of wood from a desk in the old tannery ut Galena belonging to Grant, which was received with "feat applause, 1:42 Mr. TJayno, of Pennsylvania read the report of committee on rules, reccom mending that Dakota be admitted with 10 votes and Washington Territory with I yotos. Hoar moved that the report of committee on rules be adopted with the exception of that relating to the election of alternates. Ilutterworth, of Ohio, mov ed that the limit of nominating speeches be 15 minutes and seconding speeches be 10 minutes. His motion was defeated. 1 :51- Senator .iolinson of New York moved to recommit rule ten to the com mittee, which motion was withdrawn af ter S minutes' discussion, and Hoar's mo tion to amend the phraseology of rule 10 was defeated. The original report was then adopted, At 2:08 Senator Hoar of Michigan moved a recess be taken till 8 p. ni. The motion was carried, and at 2; 13 tlic con vention adjourned to matt at ft o'clock this evening. An Outside Opinion. A quarter column sfpiib appeared in our sister ink fiend labt nidit which was enti- i tied an outside opinion. It certainly was an outside opinion, or we have not much I respect for a head that would contain such a chunk of fool beef as to display as much ignorance. No doubt the auth or of the squib desired a little cheap notoriety by pondering a whole week probably in order to get his beef head to grasp what he had the gall to cull an opinion, for the purpose of aspiring to editorship of the Journal during the campaign. We are quite sure he was in a sad condition of helplessness when he dropped his signature on the bottom of such a display of ignorance. He made a good display, and certainly showed that he knew nothing of what he was writing about. He made eyery effort hi poor cranium was capable of tackling and tried to show Mr. Murphy up because he helped secure the printing for this ofiicc. Mr. M. was not the only man, as he stated. anl if a thick skull could admit any reason, there might be a chance for such a man as Maguire, but as he is iu such a sad plight, we expect nothing more of him. Perhaps Ave are foolish for using as much space over such a piece of worth-lessness. PERSONALS. hronJWe !lieidays Pally, Mr. lici t n heeler, of Omaha, is in the city visiting his friend, Mr. Hvion Drew. Mi:;s Kittie H.u tioan will Mart for Hast ings to join hrr parents this evening.

Gering addressed the audience for about thirty minutes and then adjourned the meeting for one week to see if they could not get enough people together to elect officers for a permanent organisation nt this point. lite. The enthusiast ic workers of the O., I), party here in Plattsmouth do not seem to be having much success in organizing dem ocratic clubs throughout Cass county.

The Old Doctors Drew blood, modern doctors cleauso it ; hence the increased demand for Altera tives. It is now well known that most diseases are due, not to over-abundance, but to impurity, of the Blood ; and it is equally well attested that no blood ineilieine is so efficacious as Ayt-t-'s Sarsaparilla.
