1:4S o'clock yesterday, mid an hour nud
ten minutes Inter Governor Tlioodor
Roosevelt of New York wiik ntmiilmoiiH
ly Helreted to stand beside him in tbe
coming bnttlc.
The scenes attending the selections
were tutnultunuH. Sueh unnninioiiK dem
onstrations in honor of the nominees of a
national convention have neve been
equaled perhaps in the history of politic
in this country. It wan n love featit, a
jubilee, a ratification meeting.
A flutter of handkerchiefs tilled the air,
and a cheer weut up from the delegates
in the pit as Senator Foraker of Ohio,
the ideal of militant Republicanism,
strode toward the platform. Joniker If
a Km ml looking man, with something of
the iniperiousness of I'lalne anil the
dash of a Knpert about him. The ail
was mircharged with electricity as he
mounted the steps, and when he turned
about, ftHiiding there with gray eye.
WILLIAM MKINLEY.
calmly sweeping the cheering thousands,
the magnetic orator must have been con
scious of his power to cull up n storm
that would sweep through the amphithe
ater. , Itclow him, about him on cithet
side, were banked men and women ul
most frantically waving huts, handker
chiefs and pampas plumes.
In full view of the convention he stood
erect, his face ns inflexible as though
chiseled in marble, waiting for the up
plaiue to cease. When quiet was re
stored, he spoke in part us follows:
"Mr. C'huirmau and (ientleineii of the
Convention Alabama yields to Ohio, and
I thank her, but Alabama has yielded by
reason of a fuct that would seem unim
portant and superfluous, for she bus
yielded because our candidate lias in fact
already been nominated. He was nuiued
by Senator Wolcott In his able speech ol
Tuesday. He was nominated by Senatot
Lodge iu his address of yesterday and by
the senator from Indiana when he reud
the platform, and not only has he been
nominated by them, but by the whole
American people.
"From one end of our land to the othel
hut one man is thought of for the honot
that we are here to confer. He is the
first choice of every man who wishes for
Uepublicun success next fall. So it is not
necessary for me or any on else to speuk
for him. He has already spoken for him
self and to all the world. lie has a rec
ord replete with brilliant achievement,
one that speuks at once his promises foi
the future and one that is his highest eu
logy. It constitutes an example of trium
phant success iu the discharge of public
duty. Four years ugo we confided to him
a most sacred trust. Heboid what results!
Our industries were prostrated. lie quick
ened them with a new life and brought
to our country unprecedented prosperity.
"In all the nation there is no man sc
fitted as the great leader who bus con
ducted national affairs iu the lust font
trying years.
"He has courage and experience. He
has a stainless reputation and n blame
less life that have endeared him to hit
country and won him the love and re
spect of the whole people. He is an ideal
man. He is an ideal candidate. For uli
these considerations, not alone in behalf
of Ohio, but iu behalf of every state in
the I'nion and of Republicans every
where, I nominate William McKinley."
At the utterance of McKinley's nuiiK
the audience began to cheer. The sight
was a gland and inspiring one. Iu tlit
pit delegates anil alternates were cheer
ing enthusiastically. Over the acres ol
spectators bedlam reigned. The hall was
an angry sea of tossing color. Flags, red
white and blue plumes shot up us if by
magic to crest the waves. Hats wer
lifted aloft on canes. Umbrellas wert
hoisted and twisted until they resemblec
dervishes.
On the press platform the uewspapet
men, with watches out, were countiin
the minutes. On the stage Senator Hun
nu, his handkerchief in one hand, u far.
in the other, was spurring Hie vast as
sembluge to new endeavors. The ragiii(
storm did not seem to satisfy him. 111
seined a plume ami whirled it about hit
head like it general leading his men U
the charge. All at once n delegate bear
lug the stnndnrd of Kentucky rushed for
word to the stage. The effect was mug
leal.
Standards of the states were torn loose
and felling delegates climbed upon tin

platform to rally around their leader.
With state guidons pointed to a com
mon center they made a canopy over the
head t-f the Warwick of the Uepublicun
party. Ohio Interlocked her staff with
New York. Mainp figuratively kissed het
hand to California, and Minnesota sa
luted Texas. Then higher still climbed
Hannn. He mounted a table where he
could look out upon the cheering multi
tude. Keslde him suddenly appeared a
young girl arrayed In the national colors.
At this sight the cheers redoubled. The
music of the orchestra was drowued Id
the awful din.
At 12:40 o'clock Chairman Lodge or
dered n call of the roll of states for bal
loting for president.
The roll call was concluded nt 12:R0
o'clock, Hawaii casting the last two votes
for McKlnley.
A minute later Chairman Lodge an
nounced, "There have been cast IVJtl
votes, all for Williutn McKlnley, and I
THEODORE ROOSEVELT,
announce his unanimous nomination foi
president for the term beginning March
4, 1!l(ll."
The baud struck up "The Ilnttle Cry
of Freedom." the delegates joined in the
chorus, and there was an outburst of ap
plause. Then an immense imitation elephant
walked majestically down the celitel
aisle, causinr; much amusement.
Order was soon restored, because ev
ery one was eager for the nomination ot
Roosevelt to begin. Chairman Lodge ap
pealed for quiet. He said it would be
impossible to go on without order in the
galleries. He culled the Ritention of the
delegates to the fact that tin-re was
much work for the convention to do aftet
the nominations were completed.
As the nnine of Alabama was called
on the roll of states for the nomination ot
candidates for vice president the an
nouncement was made by the chairman
of the delegation that Alabama would
yield to Iowa to present n enndidate.
Chairman Lodge then recognized Colo
nel Lafe Young, one of the Iowa dele
gates at large. Robust and vigorous in
his physique and in his mentality. Colo
nel Young swung down the main aisle to
the platform to do that which a single
orator never before did in n Republican
national convention withdraw one strong
mid magnetic man ns a candidate and
present the name of another for the sec
ond orlice in tbe gift of the American
people. He withdrew the nume of Dolli
ver and offered thirt of Roosevelt.
' Colonel Young was in Cuba nt the time
Roosevelt led his gallant rough riders up
San Juan hill, and his reference to the
governor's campaign was eloquent and
touching.
The demonstration which followed the
announcement by Colonel Y'oung of Gov
ernor Roosevelt ns the candidate of the
young men of the couutry, who repre
sented their desires and their ambitious
und embodied their patriotism and Amer
icanism, wns not second to tlmt accorded

Danville's Bessemer Blast Furnace to Close
For Good.
The Danville Sun says that a very
persistent rumor has been current in
that city during the last couple of days
to the effect that the blast furnace of
the Bessemer Steel Company will go
out of blast on the 15th of next month.
An inquiry at the office of the plant
failed to elict anything that would
confirm or deny the rumor. Upon the
shutting down of the steel plant the
blast furnace, which had been making
bessemer pig, entered upon the man
ufacture of mill iron. We are told
that there is no sale for this iron at
any price and that all that has been
manufactured has been piled up on
the grounds. The rumor seems to be
a well founded one, and persons in a
good position to know have no doubt
that it is the intention of the company
to close down the plant at the time
designated, which will be about the
time that the stock on hand is used
up. If the furnace closes down, after
the present experiment in its operation
it is doutful if it will ever again be put
into blast, Certainly not until a more
promising boom roll along than the
one which started it up this time.-
