Sit - Feud Between the Friends of Cleve-lend Cleve-lend and Hill Becomes More and " More Pronounced, in 3 g TO THE HILT FROM HOW ON, 5 ;:oii of the Democratic Party in Fix- ing Up Fences for the Presidential - JBattle of Ninety-Two. t T r y.w Yoiik, July 11. Special. ' , e the return of Governor Hill, from jj anapoHs, tho feud between his fol-r fol-r ;ng and that cf ex-President Cleve- 1 has become ifcoro pronounced. All - nucrats hero, those friendly to Hill veil as those opposed to him, cou- (7 that his visit to the Hoosier capital, Ie ostensibly to pay reverence to the liiury of Hendricks, was really to ivani his own boom for the presi-n'V. presi-n'V. Shrewd politicians almost eon- the ability of tho governor to se- l , the New York delegation. If he j so, the question they are asking mselves is, What effect will it have i lie convention? Of course, Cleve- : , will have his friends in the delcga- ; i, and thoy may cause a disturb-.,. disturb-.,. iu the convention, and protest ! inst tlio nomination of Hill, as John !v did against tho nomination of ; lien and of Cleveland himself. The test, however, went unheeded, for convention nominated the meu to in tho Tammany chief was unutter-v unutter-v opposed. Will history repeat it-is it-is the question now puzzling the I wen. If the convention will fol-the fol-the course it adopted towards velaud ami Tilden and nominate candidate who is supported bv I- delegation even though a rentable re-ntable minority of that delegation .use him then the followers of the lielor-governor nro eonlideut that ir candidate will bo selected. If veland should afler surveying the Kttion decido not to re enter public it is thought his intliienee in the ivention will be given to Chief-Jus-e Fuller, whom he appointed on the och of the supreme court. Fuller i!s from Illinois and the democrats t there claim now that theirs is a tibtfnl state. If John M. Palmer uld be elected United States senator n Illinois will have another Hit-hud in the lield. There seems to bo impression hero that tho Illinois moerats acted unwisely in nominating iiner for the senate, as many prom- I nt democrats iu the state have since covered-that be has business iu Ett-ie, Ett-ie, iu California, New York, in fact y where but iu Illinois. .Theu it is imised that the leaders are dis-untled dis-untled at being forced on all oeca-nis oeca-nis to make way for (Jen. Palmer, re iu the east theuamo of no western iiesmau is known except that of liner. When Fuller was nominated r the supreme bench his rejection was manded by tho New York press on ' ground that ho was not "generally imvn." Nono of the Illinois politi-uis politi-uis are in that sense "generally loivn" here. Tree, Block, Cregier, iringer aud Harrison are not "gen-illy "gen-illy known" here, yet they are the nlors of the democracy iu Illinois. Hill should bo nominated Geu. Black ill probably be named for second ace ou the ticket. Indiana's claim r recognition ou the national ticket ill not receive much consideration is time. In fact the democrats here aim "that any democrat can now carry "liana." If the convention should ; ide not to select a New York man, iuois will have an abundance of favor- sons to present. The Cleveland n claim that their candidate is ranger with the business element and th the masses in the state than is ill. but that iho latter lias the poli-l poli-l ians with him, and that: his ehauces tlio delegation are therefore flatter-The flatter-The Cleveland men also assert uit their man is stronger than Hill here, he-re, the country, as the governor is ore than suspected of having played dse to the national ticket at the last i''ction. No matter which secures the "legation Cleveland or Hill there ill be fun in tlio next convention. |
