| Show ELAINE AND LOGAN This is the Team that the Republicans Re-publicans have Yoked The Plumed Knight Nominated ted on the Fourth Ballot Rej dicing Republicans THURSDAY lSIGliT Chicago 5After the speeches seconding JBlaines nomination upon the mention of the name of Blame there arose another shout of applause which swelling rapidly soon developed into a greater louder and more piercing halloo than followed fol-lowed the call of Blaine The handkerchiefs hand-kerchiefs of the ladies were again waived in unison the delegates elevated ele-vated their hate and it seemed likely for five minutes to be merely a repetition of the preceding uproar up-roar A happy innovation however how-ever was made The visitors who made ninetynine hundredths of the applause wrested the flags from the sides of the gallery and waved them the entire length of the hall a large national flag was taken by a visitor from In front of the platform andlwaved amidst tremendous cheering cheer-ing Subsequently upon the pole of the flag was placed a helmet exquisitely ex-quisitely formed of carnations and roses with a long white plume which was hoisted from the press table The helmet was the gilt ot some young ladies of Chicago A tremendous declaration granted this happy suggestion of the plumed knight of four years ago So went on the waving of hats umbrellas flags and diverse other articles for several minutes until it degenerated into whistling cat calls and other like noises The chairman seized the moment to rap the convention to order and after a short fight with whistlers callers nnd others business busi-ness was once more resumed after an interval of twentyfive minutes The call of the roll was continued by the secretary until the state of New York was reached when came the opportunity of friends of Arthur Ar-thur and well was it improved Such a burst of enthusiastic applause upon the part of the general audience audi-ence such an uprising and cheering of a reat body of delegates and waving of hats showed their numbers num-bers and earnestness Colored delegates dele-gates especially raised their voices and their hats and added to the general applause Figs were again swung upon the platform and along side3 or the hall After fifteen minutes of this enthusiastic cheering cheer-ing the chairman rapped twice to stop the cheers s but was only cheered for his trouble He rapped thrice and the crowd sang Marching March-ing through Georgia Again he rapped and thev gave three cheera and a tiger for Arthur after which business proceeded Mr Martin I Townsend of New York took the platform The house cheered and applauded for fifteen mnutesr and endeavored if possible to counteract the enthusiasm enthu-siasm gotten up by friends of Mr Elaine a few minutes previous As soon as it was possible to be heard the t chairman rapped vigoriously on the table with his gavel and said Gentlemen of the convention Mr Townsend of New York who said Mr President and Gentlemen rf the Convention America is proud of her g eat men The American party is proud of her great men and the great men of America are in the Republican party Applause it has warmed my heart to hear the eulogies of tonight I abate not one whit from the speakers who have uttered the eu Joglume in my admiration of those men I came here to say amen and thrice amen as to the achIevements achIeve-ments of the Republican party including in-cluding the glorious history of the gentlemen whose names have been presented here I came here however how-ever to talk about the well being of the Republican party in future and I say to the gentlemen of this convention con-vention that however joyous our evening interview may be there Is a very grave responsibility resting upon us that has got to be borne and decided by cooJ and deliberate judgment The question is how shall we put ourselves before the American people in the shape to carry the suffrages at the next election I elec-tion V And it is a serious question In France when the i National assemblies from about 1790 to 1SOO weie assembled the demonstration from the surrounding sur-rounding neighborhood in Paris and the assent by the national assemblies assem-blies settled a question but we may exert an influence upon this body We may obtain the assent of this body and yet our work is not done We have got to go down to the cons con-s that tent us here Wo i have got to shape our action so that ic shall commend itself to the men that go to cburch to clergymen to elders to deacons and members and citizens who attend churches all that fear God and love the Republic have got to canvass our action and pass in judgment upon what we have done Now how shall we meet the views of the people 7 I came to speak to you in carrying out what I believe is most likely to meet the favor of the electors of this countrythe Republican electors elec-tors The individual I speak of i Gen Chester A Arthur of the State of New York Cheers and applause I shall not dwell upon tht early history of Arthur I shall content myself with saying that his veins are fillled with blood that draws its origin from the channels of Argyle and from the north of Ireland the stur Meet stock in the universe He assed the typical life of an American boy without money he had to make up in energy for what he lacked in filthy lucre Four years ago he was taken up by the national assembly that met here and mmlnated for the office of YjcePresideotof the United Stats He was elected that upon same ticket with the painted Garfield a I man whom I loved I knew him away back in 1856 when a boy struggling in college in my own college Williamstown in dear old Massachusetts where my early boyhood days were passed I met him in the national Congress four long years I sat by his side ana I felt that when the national convention had nominated Garfield they had done themselves honor they had done the country the greatest favor that was possible ia that way and under the circumstances of the country to confer upon In the providence of God a mournful a melancholy nevertobeforgotten providenoe Mr Gaifiel1 was removed re-moved from the field of action and Mr Arthur was called ti the difficult diffi-cult and almost disheartening posi tion of chief officer of this Union and from that time his work has been constant straight forward unswerving kind and considerate con-siderate to all and with charity for all and malice against none he has i discharged his duties Applause Until within a year every Repub lican convention in this Union has passed a resolution of unqualified commendation upon the man and his conduct in the presidential office Applause Shall I say that 1 need not utter commendation What have you said today cIn the administration of President Arthur we recognise one whose conservative and patriotic policy I under wnlch the country has I been blessed with remarkable prosperity pros-perity and believe his eminent services are entitled to and will receive re-ceive the hearty approval of every citizen Cheers That is to go down to the fireside of every constituent con-stituent this assambly mean of this representative assembly and they will hold 5 ou to what you have said on this oacason We hand a peculiar constituency We have greater difficulties than our Democratic Demo-cratic friends When our Democratic Demo-cratic friends have held up a principle princi-ple and have led their friends to believe they were in earnest and have achieved a triumph nothing makes them so happy nothing makes their constituents so proud of them as to have them turn tail and confess they never believed it Our people hold no such doctrine What shall they Day to us l Shall we lead fcuem to say Were you in earnest about this thing I have not said enough Some len years ago a large portion of our citizens came to feel that the mode of distributing inferior infer-ior and clerical offices throughout the country was injurious to public morality and would in the end be subservient to the rest of the people They started then what is called the agitation for civil service reform A great many are there here to day who believed it not necessary but by and bye through the persistency of eminent men that favored this movement earnest men that believed be-lieved the reform of the civil service upon the principles that they indicated Indi-cated must and should be accomplished accom-plished persevered in It until now for more than eight years no national na-tional no State convention has ever been oiganizad without passing resolutions re-solutions in favor of civil service reform Mr President when you took the chair in speaking of the great and glorious men whose names would come before this convention for consideration con-sideration you said that Chester A Arthur had justly won the commendation com-mendation Well done good and faithful servant Sir you quoted from the Book what in that Book was said should be done and the welldoing and faithful servant is turned out into a brush pasture to starve That ia not the doctrine of that Book The good and faithful servant is everywhere promised his reward That is a wonderfully good book and for digression let me spy to young gentlemen not members mem-bers of the convention who cried so loudly for my friend Ingereoll last night that there is a great deal of the most instructive and interesting reading in that Book if they shall have grace to attend to it I said the people are fall of determination in this matter There is honor sir in meeting an intelligent and tireless tire-less enemy The Democratic party are matching for a breach in our army They have their lances in rest they have their spears pointed and whenever we open our armor they are ready tc pierce the Republican Repub-lican party to the heart What will they say Oh here what a nice party you are I You have been prating prat-ing ten years about having a non factional administration You have found one yourselves as you say and yt for the purpose of taking up scraibuy else you have srlcki down and cast into oblivion as far as you have the power the very man who has done the work you said you could do and have spent ten years preparing for his hand I said Democrats could do anything They have their Pendleton in Ohio They cheared him loudly they patted him on the back when he made his speeches for civil service reform but when he came down to Ohio for recognition to be returned to the Senate they whistled him down It will be well to strengthen the party but it wont strengthen us These men our constituents will look into this In the days ol James tho second he got into a difficulty with a bishop and imprisoned im-prisoned all the bishops and among them was Trelawney from Cornwall Corn-wall bishop of Bristol Cornithmen Were very much excited because their friend was in danger and a message was sent out the burden of which was this ShaH Irelawney c die Shall Trelawney die Then 30000 Cornishmen will know the reason why And in this case strike down Arthur I and not 30000 RepublIcans but thirty times SO 000 R publicans will I know the reaOii why Applause Now my friends 1 have presented substantially the considerations which govern ire in proposing the action which I intend to follow We have in every case eirce the publican party ws formed d one one of two things We have whtn our President ha flnshed hi + term recommended him except in the case of Mr Hayes who refused a renomination Laughter We save him a second term We re fused to give Gen Grant much as we regarded him a third term These are traditions of the party a common understanding and In order or-der to show that I give the common understandings of the party I have but to quote a letter from the most distinguished statesman in the northeasterly portion of this Union written on the 20th of December 18SO in view of the incoming administration ad-ministration of Garfield in which he says Speaking of the administration admin-istration not at all directing its energies for reflection but compelling com-pelling the result by the logic of events and imperious necessities of the situation So said that great statesman so has said every man so says the community and so will say the voters and God grant that this convention may adopt such a course as to conciliate the solid anxious men of the Republican party that victory in November so important to the well being of this country may again perch itself for twenty years upon the Rephblican banner Arinuid nomination was SEC ended by Bingham of Pennsylvania Lynch clored of Mississippi Winston of Norta Carlina Pinch back colored Louisiana The State of Ohio being reached in the call Judge JTjraker step ed to the platform to put In nomination nomina-tion John Shermau He said he would speak bu a few plain words for a plain but a very great and grand man Cheers Ohio was a Republican State and would cast her vote for the nominee of this convention but she claimed nothing on that account He was not here to ask anything for Ohio asa as-a candidate precedent Ohio had been always ready to follow the chosen leader of the party and never was more ready than ehe was to lay If she was proud of the names of Grant and Sherman and Hayes and Garfield it was only because of their illustrious services to the whole country The name which he was about to present to the convention con-vention was cras familiar as a household house-hold word It was the name of a man who had been the acknowledged acknow-ledged leader of the Republican party for the last thirty years The failure to resume specie payments in 1879 would have been almost as fatal to the country as the loss of the battle of Gettysburg and it was to the man whose name he proposed to present that the country was most Indebted for the resumption re-sumption of specie payment The people of the country know and appreciate that fact and had a profoundly pro-foundly grateful recollection of the service then rendered No man had greater admiration than he himself had for the briliantgenius of the gentleman from Maine At this allusion to Blaine the orator wag compelled to pause for the audience again broke out into a wild hurrah which rivalled any of the preceding demonstrations in his honor Again the banners and hats and handkerchiefs handker-chiefs were waved and vociferous cheering was maintained from all parts of the hall and although it was now near midnight the multitude multi-tude ahowedno diminution of its enthusiasm en-thusiasm The band took part in the demonstration but the thunders of applause deafened all sounds of music In the uproar a white plumed helmet was borne through the hall Finally the storm subsided and Mr Ioraker was able to resume his speech which he did by warning hearers that they had forgotten the timehonored maxim never to halloo hal-loo until they got out of the woods Laughter and cheers To the end that they might haye success on November next they must nominate nomi-nate a man who would make not onlv a good President but the best possible candidate That Is BlaIne was shouted from the galleries gal-leries Their candidate must be a man in whom the people believed and as such a manhave nominated John Sherman of Ohio Cheera Holt of Kentucky seconded Mr Sherman nomination He was a man whose name had been written as that of a master of the legislation legisla-tion of the country During a quarter quar-ter of a century his name had been exposed to the blaze of public opinion opin-ion and had never been scorched When Vermont wa reached in the n 11 of S cctp John il L g of Massachusetts at 1206 came to toe platform to present the name of Mr Edmunds He appealed even at that late hour for an opportunity for brave little Vermont applause in the simple Edmunds Of Mr Edmunds personal and public character cha-racter Vermont gave a guarantee of its continued fidelity to itself It only needed that Edmunds respond to the demands of the people with his nomination and the triumph of the Republican party was sure as tha coming of the election day His noble character his tested services his tried incorruptibility his unstained stained walk through the storms and trials of public life his approved ap-proved wisdom equal to every emergency his recognized capacity to put a firm afe band on the helm were not Vermonts choice for the people but the peoples choice for themselves APplause C1NTIHUED ON FOURTH FADE II t j it r THE CONVENTION I 1 I CONTUWED FROM THIR PAGE The public knew thathis
