" Michigan" has been, a .Repiiblicah
State. The Democrats for the firs,
time In 'u.-any. years' had cont rol of
the last Legislature. They parsed
what is'khoWn as the 'Michigan Elec
toral Law. TThis law provides that
instead of choosing presidential "elec
tors oYia general ticket,- the cus
tom has been in all the States, two
electors, only shall be chosen by the
State at large and the ' remainder1 'by
cougressio.nal districts, each of. the
twelve districts into which the, State
is divided by the new apportion men t
law choosing an elector for that par
ticular district. - 1 , 1
The, Supreme fJ Court of r Michigan
has 3 ust decided that the law was
constitutional. 'But trieTe could ridt,

THE DEMOCRATIC SITUATION.
iThejNew, York Herald; publishes
the following as a leading editorial
on the day Cleveland was nomi
nated:' ' ' '
"The fight "against Jfr.1' Cleveland
in the Chicago Convention is not
based on personal prejudice,' but on
political principle. His opponents
are unwilling to take any more risks
in- the. coming; eaiiipaign. than 'are
absolutely necessary 4 They believe
that Mr. Cleveland -will "not insure
victory, but endanger i;

Cpld, hardf undeniable facts are" the
raw material put of which the noini
riation ought to be forged.: r h i
:AVe have nothing to say either for
or against Mr. Cleveland personally.
All that is aside from this controver
sy. Is he the strongest man from a
purely political standpoint to 'lead
the party in one ' of the ' toughest
fights of this generation?' There is
no doubt that h,e, is. mi honest man
as politiciansg'o; or that he is a very
agreeable.. companion. .on a fishing
