Continuing the report of the majority reads: -- We are opposed to all class legisla tion and believe in a tariff levied for the sole purpose of producing a revenue sum- cient to defray the legitimate expense of the government economically administered."

The Cincinnati Delegation is rrnntled and Will Not be Clevelixd, July 13 Dis- - James E. Camp-Be- ll is renominated by the democrat of thfjeUita of Ohio fur governor, and the anxiety of the party leader ia now di- rected to tte absorbing query: "Will Hamilton county support the ticket"' If the Cincinnati delegate ia their manifestations of relentless opposition aad hostility today, truly represented the feelings of their people. Then the conclusion is irrefutable that a considerable portion of the democrats of Hamilton county will not support Governor Campbell in the November election. It is almost proverbial in the Buckeye state that "as Hamilton county goes, in the autumn elections, so goes the state of Ohio. If this is accepted as an inial lible rule, the importance of harmoniz ing the discordant elements in Hamilton oounty may well merit the anxiety of the democratic leaders. The renomination of Governor Campbell has been conceded by his opponents since last evening, but there is a sturdy determination to refuse, after the formal d result should be assured, the courtesy of a unanimous nomination. time-honore- THIS HAS WROUGHT DISMAY. in the hearts of all those who declaro in united and harmonious Democracy rests the only hope of victory in the coming campaign. The fast musio hall in which the convention is held, was packed to its utmost capacity long before the hour of meeting arrived. The decorations as usual consisted largely of the American colors. Suspended above the stage was the vast floral creation bearing in letters the greeting: "Democrats of Ohio, Welcome to Cleveland." Promptly at 10:.TO, Chairman Norton of the state central committee, called the convention to order, and Kev. J. W. Campbell invoked the devine blessing upon the convention. Chairman Norton then formally opened the convention in a brief but stirring address. Norton denounced the Republican party and the McKinley bill in the usual terms and asserted that everything good under the constitution was the inspiration of the Democratic tiartv.. He closed with a eulogy of Hon. A. G. Thurman and introduced his son, Allen W. Thurman, as temporary chair man. At its conclusion Allen W. Thurman, temporary chairman, stepped forward and addressed the convention. Thurman, after a few preliminary remarks, launched forth with a denunciation of the Republican party and its methods. lie paid particular attention to the acts of the last congress, which he denounced for the enactment of the McKinley tariff bill and the subsidy bill and its efforts to pass the Force bill. Continuiug, he said: TARIFF FOR REYEKUE. "The time is here when people will ex press their belief in complete and not restricted reciprocity; when they will no longer sustain any party which levies and collects one dollar taxes over and above that which is required to wisely and economically administer the affairs or the government, when they will give due notice that the iRfant industries that have been nursed for a hundred years, have arrived at an age when they must take care of themselves; when thev will brand a protective tariff as stealing, its advocates as beggars, and demand that we must have a tariff for revenue only." "I most earnestly beseech the farmers whose interests are identically the same as my own, to follow this course. The wild schemes of government loaning money upon warehouse certificates, or upon lands; the taking possession of the railways and telegraphs by the government, internal improvements that are demanded and a dozen other minor issues that lead, not only to greater taxation, but to the RANKEST KIND OF SOCIALISM, I say to them set them to one side and to tariff the issue until you get what is due you." The committee on permanent organization then reported. Leblond was elected as permanent chairman of the convention. A committee escorted Leblond to the chair. Chairman Leblond's speech was brief and to to the point, lie thanked the convention for the honor conferred and then proceeded to denounce the last republican congress for its bad legislation and its attempts to pass the Force bill. General Armstrong of Cleveland, moved that the convention adopt the picture of Btick THB VICTORIOUS ROOSTER us a device to designate the democratic ticket, the recent ballot reform law redevice. quiring the 'selection of some The motion was adopted by acclama.

A dispute in the Twenty-fward in Cincinnati, and the ifth Hamilton county delegation wrs the subject of the wrangle. Nobody but Hamilton county delegates appeared to fully understand the points in dispute, and T. J. Coogan, secretary of the convention, started to make an explanation. "Sit down; you are oot a delegate." shouted a dozen Hamilton county delegates. "The chair decides that the secretary s an officer of his convention is entitled to be heard," said the chairman. An appeal from the decision of the chair was RULED OCT OF ORDER. Secretary Coogen then made his statement amid many interuptions from the 11 a tsvu.-cate- 1 - "Pre-eminent- g . 1 C Con-naug- ht Mc-Ga- r " t |
