REVIEW OF OUR COWEMIO.NS With tbe approach of the two great national conventions, it is an Interest ing thing to review the past conven. tlons, since the Art was held In the year 1866. Prom the beginning the Republicans have caat a total of 90 ballots while the Democrats haVe displayed a much more vigorous fight before naming their party "leaders, and have marked up 310 ballots. Probably, the most spirited conven tion was in 1924, when Davis was nominated on the 103rd baMot and the country may go a long time be fore the number of ballots will ever equal that convention. The highest numbsr of ballots ever required to nominate at the Republican conven. [ton was in 1880 when Garfield was he choice on the 56th ballot. With the two conventions again he offing the parties may both place 1 leader in nomination on the first rallot, or they may spend some time ind chalk up a long list of ballots lefore a selection Is made. The time iss only been on a few occasions that he conventions have named a leader >r, the first ballot. A review of these conventions since he first in 1866, shows the following, i ith the first named at each conven ion being the Republican candidate, nd the second named .the Demoera 1856?Fremont on first; Buchanan n seventeenth. 1860?Lincoln on third; Brecken. idge on first; Douglas on Fifty-ninth. 1864?Lincoln on first; McClellan n ?f?l 1868?Grant on first; Seymour on nronfwcnonnH * il'.wij w.vwagmiai ? 107^ fennf nn flrnl ? rinaalnu rc*\ ao 1 j vi 1 u 111 uu 111 ui, u rrcicy viu rat. .
