The nominees, General Benjamin Harrisoa, of Indiana, for President, and Hon. Levi P. Morton, of New York, for Vice President, are both tried and true men and will poll the full vote of the Republican Party. And with a full vote and no stragglers the result Is not doubtful. The Plat­ form adopted is one of the most com­ plete epitomes of Republican doctrine erer sent abroad by any Convention, and with two such candidates planted firmly upea it, the grand old party will march te victory la November. A summary of the proceedings of the Convention can be found on the inside page* •f ttais paper. We shall give tbe|*$|lfona la full and have more to say^illatlOQ to the oandidatea next t GARFIELD'S ELOQUENT WOKDB. Aa pertinent and as applicable to­ day as they were In 1880, are the words Of Genera) James G. Garfield, uttered 1« the National Convention by which he was himself nominated. "Net here, in this brilliant circle where 15,- oet men aad women are gathered," he said, "is the destiny of the republic to be decreed for the next four years, Not here, where I see the enthusiastic faees of 756 delegates, waiting to caat their lots Into the urn and deter ml Be the choice of the republic; bat by 4,- 900,000 of Republican firesides, where the thoughtful voters, with wives and etdfctti* about then, with the calm its Inspired by love of home and r, with the history of the past, of the future, and reverence for the great men who have adorned aad blessed eur nation in days gone by tauffritac in their hearts--Mere God prepares the verdict which will deter- mlae the wisdom of onrwork to-night. Not in Chicago, in the heat of June, but at the ballot-boxes of the Repub­ lican the quiet of November, after the silence of deliberate judgment, 5 prill this question be settled." rrata 1SS6 AMD 1888. : i%e Incident of yesterday's proceed* logs of the National convention which will most deeply touch the popular heart was the appearaooe upon the platform of the new venerable John C. Fremont. One does not need to be an old man to recall the stirring cam­ paign of 1856, and the enthusiasm which clustered about the gallant young leader of that first National contest of the Republican party. Thirty-two years have elapsed since the battle cry of liberty was "Fremont and freedom." and It was an inspira­ tion to have the "Pathfinder" of that day still among us, looking hale and hearty, as If good for three more de­ cades. His own personal fortunes have undergone remarkable vicissi­ tudes, but all that fades into nothing­ ness in comparison with the public changes time has wrought since then, and that, too, under the brave, true lead of the same Republican party which chose him as its first candidate for the Presidency. Ac that time slavery was so firmly imbedded in the organio law of the land aud the Institutions of the people that it would have ^pemed absurd to have predicted its destruction in less than ien years. The Republican party began by promising tho county to 6tay the progress of slavery If intrust-r ed with the reins of power, but, hav- iHg once begun to resist the slave power, It was not content until it had crushed it out of existence. As he re­ called the position of the party when he wr.s its candidate, and compared Its small promises with its mighty achievements, General Fremont must have felt that it was honor enough for any man to occupy the first place, chronologically speaking, in the list of those whom such a party most delight* ed to honor. Immediately following General Fre­ mont there were loud calls for Fred Douglass, wh:» responded in a brief speech, full of old-time fire, and point­ ing out a great duty unfulfilled. Much as the Republican party has done for t&e colored race since 1356, much re­ mains still to be done, The black man is still, to all Intents and purposes, a freedman rather than a freeman in every Southern State, and Republi­ canism should be made to mean a free ballet and an honest count in the South. Taken together, Fremont and Douglass, they Impressively linked the past aud the present of the Republican party, and point a political moral that the party can not afford to disregard. When Douglass sat down there were loud calls for Ingorsoll, who was not present, but who would have found in the twofold incident a theme worthy his incomparable eloquence. This revival ef 1856 memories can not fail to be recognized by the public at large as a felicitous opening of the campaign of 1888. I v She Ub«r Element Oat of Felltjjjî .,:̂ "Thwe is no program in tho labor polities of New York for the elec tlons thtsyear," said a Unionist political agitator of the Central Labor Union. *'Woaro all split up into factious, which are fighting to the knife--all of us excepting the great majority of horsy •handed voters, who are now steering clear of labor politics. The Central Labor Union, which nominat­ or candidates for several years, could not now unite upon any platform or candidate. We will not back up the Mc&lynn faction, nor the Coogan faction, nor the Socialistic,'faction, npr tho Union Labor Grangers, party nor the Henry George boodle party. Most Of as, leaving out the stifi-necked Socialists will vote for the old parties we have been denouncing. Dr. Mc' Glynn has hoisted the name of a Chi­ cago druggist for President but he won't get a hundred votes in New Tork and if a local labor ticket Is put np by any faction it will be repudiated or ignored by all the other factions. To make a long story short, the game of labor politics is played out in New York for this year."--New York Sun, 1 a&"The government of the U. S. has in its possession one of the most Interesting and complete collections of naval Arms and accoutrements in existence. The collection is one of the features of the Navy Yard at Washington, where it forms a depart­ ment known as the Naval Museum.

The man dropped his pick and very patiently showed the garrul­ ous party the crematory, the water works, the wolf den, and all they de - sired to see. But they expressed dreadful disappointment at not having found the poet at home. "Now look here, old fellow," said the leader of the party, as they were going, to the man who was about to resume his pick "what sort of a looking man is Joaquin Miller,any how?" "Well, he looks like me," was the quiet auswer. "Like you? Looks like you?" uYos; I am Joaquin Miller."
