The Ticket.
Republicans .are among the favored of
fortune, surely. Their presidential
ticket, giving assurance of another vic
tory at the polls, appeals to the country
by a host of leading considerations. All
intelligent voters know that President
Harrison is a very able man. Uoms
Biade a safe president, conservative of
all our national good things, as affected
by his word or deed. His administra
tion has been free from blunders and
mistakes, end always to the advantage
of our "own country, when pitted against
iT A ft- fllii.n linr I1 ,.,
flXCIT fief. .LAICIC AIOD uwu uiiuuguvu
an evident purpose on the part of the
chief executive of the nation to hold tho
reins of government with a firm and
even hand, no section or interest unduly
favored above another a constant, in
telligent purpose of right always actuat
ing. The administration of President
Harrison, so far at least, will rank in
history alongside the best we have bad,
and this fact will go a long ways with
the hosts of common people who believe
in having good, solid men in public
office; men whose private lives as men
and as citizens, are pure and honorable.
Wbitelaw Beid, the candidate for vice
president, is a worthy successor to
Horace Greelejvthe greatest editor this
country has produced; born in Xenia,
Ohio, in 1837, he is in the very prime of
life. A man, like the president, with a
trained intellect, and such experiences
in life as have tended to build up a good
solid, substantial character. Like the
president, he is a representative Ameri
can citizen. Not an office-seeker, he
steadily refused political honors, up to
the time he was offered the position of
minister to France, to which he was ap
pointed by President Harrison, on
March 19, 1839.
The unanimous choice of the republi
cans of the greal state of New York for
the vice presidency, the national con
vention could have made no better se
lection. If, in any contingency, he
should be called upon to occupy the
presidential chair, he would bring to
the duties of that office broad common
sense, high integrity and a loyalty to
country rarely equaled, and never ex
celled. ECHOES OF THEFIGHT.
STRAWS WHICH SHOW THE
FEELINC
Very Few Delegates Left at Minneapolis
The Sentiment at Washington The
General Expression of Opinion What
England Thinks Of It.
Minneapolis, June 13. There is
precious little national convention left
in Minneapolis to-daj. There was not
much last night Only a corporal's
guard was present to witness the cnt-and-dried
nomination of Whitelaw
Reid. By the time that event was
actually readied many of the leaders
were already pounding the ear of ex
haustion iu sleeping cars rushing
southward and to the East. After ad
adjournment the ' meager crowd
pouring out of the Exposition build
ing upon the terrace overlook
ing St Anthony's Falls heard for the
first time the sullen voice of that im
prisoned giant complaining of bondages
to the moon. It wasa noble spectacle,
but the tired delegates had little
stomach for it. Their thoughts and
talks were all of trains for home. Such
of them as missed the night trains
took early trams this morning. Among
the remnants still to be found in the
lobbies of the West this morning there
is but one party the Harrison party.
Although there are still here and
there some traces of the bitterness en
gendered by the events of the week,
the supporters of Mr. Blaine as a gen
eral thing, have manifested a loyal
v illingness to let by-goncs be by-gones
and to work unitedly and har
moniously for the success of the ticket
Even the leaders of the Blaine
movement, such as Quay, Piatt and
Clarkson, say that party success must
not be endangered by apathy and luke
warmness, but that they will take off
their coats and work for the success of
the ticket with as much earnestness
and heartiness as though it were their
favorite that was to be voted for in
November. They promise, moreover,
an active and stirring campaign.
There will be no lacks of funds, it is
said, for this purpose. The nomina
tion of Whitelaw Reid is commended
on all &ides as calculated to give
strength to the ticket in the Empire
State, where, it is thought that the
campaign fun will be materially aided
by contributions from the national
business interests that have been bene
fited by the concessions granted them
by the French government as a result
of his representations and influence
during his official career as minister to
Paris.
It is said that the reasou Vice-President
Morton at no time figured as a
candidate for renomination was due to
the fact that he had represented to
some of his friends who were members
of the New York delegation that he
was tired of the cares of official life
and did not wish to be considered in
connection with the ticket
JOT AT RLAIXK'S DEFEAT.
London Taper Appear to Be Well
Satisiied With the Result.
London, .Tune 13. The burden of the
comments of the evening papers on the
renomination of PresidentHarrison and
the selection of Jlr. Whitelaw Reid as
the Republican candidate for vice-Pres-ident
is joy over the defeat of Sir.
Blaine.
The Pall ilall Uazette says: "Even
those least in sympathy with Mr.
Blaine as politician may spare a pass
ing regret at the cruel disappointment
of the man who is the ablest Republi
can and most astute politician in the
United States."
The sGlobe says: "For once the
American caucus was of real interest
to outsiders, especially in England. In
view of the dissentioa in the Demo
cratic party the nominee of yesterday
stand a good chance of being the next
lrcsidcnt It was a happy thing that
the caucus decided overwhelmingly
against the great wire-puller, whose
entire career has been marked with at
tempts to make party capital out of
foreign politics."
The Globe then relates at length Mr.
Blaines acts of hostility toward Eng
land, as shown in the Chilean affair,
the Bering sea question, the Newfound
land matter, etc.. and adds: "Even as
it was, President Harrison sometimes
had a difficult to&k to check the mis
chief." The Star publishes a most violent
attack 011 Mr. Blaine because of his pro
tection principles and sums up its esti
mate of President Harrison's qualifica
tions b3 declaring that he is: "A quiet
unassuming old gentleman of great
integrity but without great ability."
;LAI IT'S ALL OVER.
President Harrlsou Takes a Day Oa to
Receive CoHgratalatloaa.
Washington, June 13. There is a
feeling of general relief throughout
the capital to-day. The strain of the
week is over and everybody is glad of
fit With but a few exceptions the re
nomination is pretty generally com
mended. This opinion may change in
a few days but there is no doubt of its
existence to-day and there is very
little di&appoiutment discoverable.
This might be different if
Blaine men were more plentiful, but
since the news of the plumed knight's J
ignominious defeat Blaine men at tke 1
capital are very scarce. "1'aiK ox a spilt
of dangerous dimensions is very rare.
It is not heard at all among Republi
cans. Senator Hale has swallowed his
wrath and so seemingly bave most of
the cbampions of Blaine and the dark
horses. The size of the President's
majority tallying as it does with his
own assertions, demonstrates him to
be a much better politician than he
has been thought to be.

Absent and not voting
Necessary torn choice
Harrison's plurality
Opinion In Gotuum.
New York, June 13. There is no
disguising the fact that the mass of
New York Republicans hoped for the
nomination of James G. Blaine, and
hence are more or less disappointed.
The morning newspapers and the early
bulletins had virtually predicted the
nomination of Harrison and the pub
lic was prepared for the result when
the first returns from the votiug were
received. However, there were excla
mations of surprises at the Blaine
losses ami Harrison gains. TI12 votes
for McKinley were cheered heartily.
These McKinley demonstrations were
the feature of the afternoon here, in

Cleveland Refuses to Talk.
Buzzakd's Bay, Mass., June 13. "I

apolis. He has been confined to his

"DYING AT AN AWFUL RATE.
Deaths Anonf Persian Natives from
Cholera Recfae 350 a Hay.
London, June 13. A dispatch from
Meshed, Persia, says that all the Euro
peans in that city have escaped safely
from the cholera, which is ravaging
Meshed and the province of Khorassan,
in which the city is located. Among
the natives the deaths have reached 250
daily. The disease is of a most violent
type. Persons seemingly perfectly
well are seized with the disease while
passing along the streets to their usual
business and in a few hours are dead.
No panic prevails, for the people look
upon the epidemic as a divine visita
tion. The story that the dead are cre
mated and that often those who are
suffering with the disease arc thrown
while alive upon the pyres is untrue.
The dead are buried in the usual man
ner within the precincts of the town.
Reprimanded by the Czar.
St. Petersburg, June 13. It is as
serted on apparently good authority
that the Czar has reprimandeo Grand
Duke Constantine for visiting Presi
dent Carnot without permission from
the Czar. While princes of the im
perial family have a right to do as
they please when abroad iu giving and
receiving official eoui tesies, it is the
invariable rule to ask the consent
of the Czar before taking part in any
official function. It would not follow
that because the Czar reprimanded
Constantine,he therefore didjnot desire
that Prince to represent Russia at the
Nancy fetes. The Czar is very jealous
of his right as the head of the
house of Romanoff and the reprimand
may have been simply because an im
portant form was not observed by the
Grand Duke.
Death Cansed by Fright.
Lynn, Mass., June 13. John Ander
son, a Swede, died a terrible death.
Three weeks ago he was bitten on the
lip by a dog. The wound was not
cauterized. Anderson was taken ill
and at once had a decided antipathy
to water. He began frothing and was
unable to take food. He died in the
greatest agony. Consulting physicians
pronounced deatb the effect of fright
on his mind and its subsequent action

RUSSIA'S UKASE AGAINST
GRAIN EXPORT RESCINDED.
The Worst of tho Famine Thought to
Bo Over Contributions of Money jwill
Tet Be Received, However General
Washington News.
Washington, June 13. The ukase
against the exportation of grain from
Russia has been modified. Official
notice of the czar's action was received
at the State Department on Wednesday
last but owing to the absorbing interest
in the Minneapolis convention the news
was withheld until this morning,
when Acting Secretary Wharton
gave it to a correspondent The modi
fication of the ukase is interpreted at
the State Department to mean that the
famine is much less severe than it was.
That this is undoubtedly true is shown
by the intimation in the formal mes
sage to the effect that no more contri-
fbutionsof grain are needed. Monev
will be greatfully received, but the re
ceipts of more grain will tend to un
settle the Rusian market.
Foreign Consuls Recognized.
Washington, June 13. The Presi

SOUSED AND LASHED HIM.
Then the Mob Made Complaint Against
Itself and Was Held Tor Examination.
Rochester, N. Y., June 13. Fred
Withey of Pavilion has been in the
habit of getting drunk and beating his
wife. About S o'clock in the even

way and a whipping to finish off with,
and allowed him twenty-four hours to
get out of town.
The men then went to Squire Brad
ley, made complaint against themselves
and were put under S100 each to appear

same offense.
