ON TO VICTORY!
The Result of the National
Democratic Convention
at Chicago.
The democratic nominations at Chi
cago last week are such as to inspire
every true American patriot with en
thusiasm and pride. Grover Clove
land, the present Governor of New-
York is a leader in the Democratic
party and the moat available candi
date for the Presidency. His promi
nence as a candidate in the approach
ing presidential election is based upon
his election in 1882 as Governor of
New York, which was a noted tri
umph of his popularity with the peo
ple, his majority over Judge Folger
being nearly 200,000. His honest ad
ministration of reform in that state
since his occupation of the gubern
atorial chair still increased the num
ber of his admirers in both parties
and the prospects to-day are that he
will sweep the Empire state with a
large majority over Blaine.
Thomas A. Hendricks, who had
been elected Vice President in 1870,
but was shamefully cheated out of his
seat along with the President, Samuel
J. Tilden, became famous through
that very event. Mr. Hendriek's se
lection for the second place on the tick
et by the late Chicago convention was
so unamimous, that there is no doubt
of his nomination being popularly re
ceived by his party at large.And right
here we will say, that we will elect
him again this time and will see to it
that the fraud of 187G shall not be re
peated.
The platform will receive the un ver
sa! approval of all voters who love
their country and are interested in the
welfare of its people. It has been sift
ed and carefully prepared and instead
of avoiding explicit language on the
main issues of the day, as the Repub
licans do in their platform, it boldly
and logically advances the methods of
tariff reform.
The work of the Convention was
indeed well done and the united De
mocracy followed by hosts of indepen
dent Republicans will do their work
in November and make Grover Cleve
land the next incumbent of the White
House.
A Sample of the Blaine Cam
paign Schemes.
On Monday evening some of the
Democrats of our town were fully
convinced that the republicans are a
gain at their old campaign tricks. A
colored man by the name of Leonard,
who abont twelve years ago was boss
ier at Musser's hotel,made his appear
ance in town and being interviewed
by several of our citizens as to his
whereabouts and present mission can
didly informed them that he was
"gubbled up" by the republicans in
Maryland, and along with a company
of fifty other colored men was sent to
different parts of this state, for the
purpose ot casting their vote for Blaine
and Logan. Oil being asked how
much he received for this bit of ser
vice he would not give a definite re
ply but remarked that they got their
expenses paid and a little more.
This plainly shows what means
and ways our opponents will make
use of to gain their end. They advo
cate the principle that the cause [of
their party] sanctions the means.
Their cause to elect a man for presi
dent whose record deals out anything
but wholesome savors would natur
ally suggest foul means, like the im
portation of colored votes. But all in
vain. Their niggardly schemes will
surely find just retribution in their
defeat in November.
HENDRICKS SPEAKS.
A LARGE AND ENTHUSIASTIC
RECEPTION ACCORDED HIM
AT HIS HOME.
He Warmly Eulogizes Grover Cleve
land and Invites the Democracy or
Indiana to Work for Victory in
November.
INDIANAPOLIS, July 13.—A largely
attended democratic meeting to ratify
the nominations of Cleveland and
Hendricks was held here last night.
Messrs. Hendricks and McDonald were
escorted to the place of speaking by a
new political labor organization
known as the "Autocrats." The meet
ing was called to order by Austin H.
Brown, and William H. English was
made chairman. Mr. Hendricks was
received with a burst of genuine en
thusiasm, which seemed to inspire him.
His remarks were as follows :
MY FELLOW CITIZENS—YOU are al
most as mad as they were in the con
vention at Chicago. (Great cheering.)
I thought they would not stop up there
at all, and I thought there was no lim
it to the crowd of people there, but I
find there is a larger crowd almost here.
1 am very much encouraged and de
lighted to meet you on this occasion.
You come to celebrate and express your
approval of the nominations that were
made at Chicago. lam glad that you
are cordial in this expression. This is
a'great year with us. Every fourth
year the people elect the two great offi
cers of the government. This year is
our great year.and every man,whatever
his party associates may be,is called up
on to reconsider all questions upon
\yhich he is disposed to act, and,having
reconsidered, to cast his vote in favor
of what he believts to be right. Toe
democracy of Indiana appointed me
one of the delegates to Chicago. I
spent nearly a week in attendance in
that city, i return to say a few things
to you, and only a few tliiugs,in regard
to that convention. It was the largest
convention ever held in America. Nev
er had such an assemblage ot people
been seen before. It was a convention
marked in its character for sobriety,de
liberation and purposes. It selected
two men to carry the banner, and leav
ing that convention and gaing out be
fore the people, the question is, "Will
you help earrj the banner ?" (Great
cheering and cries of "We will do it.'')
I did not expect—l have no right to
expect—that I will escapeitho ciiticism,
and, it may be, the slander of tin? op
posite party. I have not in my life suf
fered very much from that, but 1 come
before you, democrats, conservatives,
independents and all men who wish to
restore the government to the position
it occupied before these corrupt times,
and to all such men I make my appeal
for your support for the high office for
which I have been nominated bv the
democracy at Chicago (Great cheers.)
Grover Cleveland, of New York, is the
nominee for president. lie was pro
moted to that high office by the highest
majority that everdecided an election in
that state. lie is a man of established
honesty of character, and if you will
elect him to the presidency of the
United States you will not hear of Star
routes in the postal services of the
country under his administration.
[Cheersand cries of "That is it."] l)o
you think that men in this age never
yield to the temptation ? [Laughter.] It
is only two years ago that one of the
secretaries at Washington was called
before a senate committee to testify in
regard to the condition of his depart
ment. In that department was the bu
reau of medicine and surgery. In that
department an exarnina ion was being
had by the committee from the senate,
and it was ascertained by the oath ot
the secretary that sits at the head of
the department that the defalcation
found during the last year, as tar as it
had been estimated, was $03,000.
Compliment to Gov. Curtin.
From tlie Bellefonte Watchman.
We have received ihts following
note, highly complimentary to our
distinguished fellow-townsman and
representative in Congress, from a
gentleman formerly and still promi
nent, as a Democrat in Pennsylvania :
WASHINGTON CITY, I). (\, >
June 20, 18S4. >
Editors of the Watchman :
1 have just had the pleasure of hear
ing Gov. Curtin make a great speech
in the House against the tendencies
of consolodation. The matter and
manner of his speech were of an un
commonly high order ; his statesman
ship and oratory were highly credit
able to Pennsylvania, and the State
would be very greatly honored in hav
ing such a representative in the Sen
ate of the United States. At the con
elusion of his address he was honored
by the warmest applause of the mem
bers. Yours truly, Jl.
Extraordinary Enthusiasm.
The enthusiasm witli which the dem
ocratic nominations have been received
is without parallel. Four years ago
the brilliant reputation of General
Hancock created for him a remarkable
exhibition of enthusiasm, but it had
neither the breadth nor depth of the
present feeling.
The ratification meetings held in
every part are extraordinary both in
size and earnestness. East and west
alike the feeling is intense. Even at
the home of Blaine there was an exhi
bition that fully equaled and in some
lesptcts surpassed that which followed
the republican nominations
But the most significant feature of
the whole matter is the universal and
widespread conversion of the independ
ent press and business men. Except
Jay Gould and Cyrus \V. Field all the
couspicious financiers in Isew York
have expressed their adherence to the
Democratic nominations.— Patriot.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, D. C., July 15, 1884.
Mrs. John Logan had John's letter of
acceptance all but ready when that ter
ribly truthful picture in Puck made its
appearance,necessitating not only a re
vision but a complete change in the
whole character of the document. The
picture represents Logan in 1858, assis
ting to drag a fugitive slave back into
bondage, with Lincoln, Sumner and
Steward protesting and appealing to
him to desist from his merciless work.
Logan retorts by faunting them with
their God-and-humanity notions, and
says : "You say that we are doing the
dirty work of the slave-catchers. We
are willing to do their dirty work."
And these were the words that Logan
did utter as a Representative in Con
gress from the free state of Illinois,
which already had upon its statute
book a law formed by the same Logan,
that made it a criminal offense for a
black man to take up his residence on
the soil ! To attempt to wipe out this
part of his record, to say nothing of
that of 1861, when he proposed to raise
a regiment in southern Illinois to help i
out of the Confederacy, will make the
letter-writiup" business oven inoro exas.
perating than its grammatical ditlicul
ties.
j The usual junketing outlits were duly
provided for amid all the indecent haste
attending the adjournment of Congress
for which the Republican Senate [and
not the Democratic House] is respons
ible. The Indian Affairs Committee of
the' Senate failed last year to ascertain
enough about the Indian status to
make an report, but this
year they will doubtless make their vis
it interesting to tnemselves and profit
able to the contractor. And then the
Senate is interested in speckled trout,
carp and other rare specimens of the
finny tribe to a degree that makes it
necessary for a committee to go with
the National Fish Commission on a
nat ional expense, and see whether the
fish interest can not be stimulated un
der the auspices of national encourage
ment. Then there are the statistics
that need looking after, which involves
another committee visitation to all
parts of the country, notwithstanding
the fact that a Bureau of Statstiics lias
just been established whose mission is
distinctively directed to the collection
of statistical data. Vet another com
mittee will attend clam-bakes at the
East and barbacues at the West, for
the special purpose of finding out what
have been the ruling prices of putty
fioui 1573 to the present tune,while yet
another committee is to find out why
it is that America cannot make as big
a gun as Krupp or any other foreigner,
for which purpose the committee will
make a protracted journey into the
chasms and canons of the great Yellow
stone country.
The sixty millions of people in this
country who have for so many years
been worroid out of sweet repose lest
some fourth-rate frigate from some
fifth-rate country sheukl come in the
night and lay waste the cities on our
eastern and western coasts, can now
lull themselves into complete security.
Half a million of dollars has been ap
propriated by Congress to be expended
in providing ordinance for the street
cruisers that are now being constructed
by the Government, and these guns are
to be of sutiicient size, calibre and pow
er to knock into smiluereeus anything
that is reckless enough to get within
range. To be sure our naval const rut t-
ors and our engineers and other experts
native and foreign, have all pronounced
these cruisers as conspicuous failures a>
they are prodigious friends, but what
does all that amount to beside the opin
ions of Secretary Billy Chandler and
his superior officer John Roach ? It
will not be until some of these cruisers
blow themselves under water in an at
tempt to blow something else out oi
water, that the Government will see lit
to imitate the example which even the
Chilian government lias set. PHONO.
