Beneath the Lurden of thc* things I pray God to give nv
strength to accomplish the hleh duftes ti2- which ll - arni
has called me. Obeying this call I have Wore my eve.
the example of peaceful rut-.- which Kmpcror William I,
after bitter wars, left to his successors, and to which my
late father's rule corresponded. In ss far as he was not
prevented from txecuti.ii; his iesjflM bv his illness mid
death. 1 have summoned you In order to deolare in youl
presence that as King and Emperor I am resolved to pur?
sue the s^iiie |M.h by which my 'Keens. I grandfa'her se
cured the confidence of his allic* the love of the German
people and good will abroad.
1 also, with God's help, will strive earnestly to accom
plish thc same end. The most Imjwirtant duties of th<
German Emperor He within the province of assuring th?
military and political safety of the Empire abroad aJK
watching over the execution of toe hssjflSttl laws at home
The chJef of the*e laws regards thc imperial constitution.
To defend and guard lt in ail the rights which lt gasms)
tees as the two legislative bodies of the nation and tc
ererj- German, and also In those which lt assures to the
Emperor and the confederate! states and their sovereigns,
appertains to tho chut rights sud duties of tho Emperor.
In the legislation of the Empire I have in aaestiSBes
with the constitution to co-operate more Jil my capacity
as King of Prussia than as <;.rin.in Kiripcrm. but in boil
capacities it will be my endeavor to proece-t In the same
spirit which my grandfather began, mid especially will I
appropriate at myself in Its full significance bi
of November 17, 18?1, and shall continue to strlv in tie
spirit of that document so that imperial legislation may
(fiord to the working pe..pl.- tfcSl further pCSSW tion which
In sasattaaM "nh Christian morality is needed by the
weak and oppiessed in their struggle for e\is:.>nce. I
hope that In this way lt may be psaaMS to arrive at an
equalisation of unhealthy social contrasts, and 1 cherish
coiiiid'juce in the bsilS( that for the SSM of our domestic
welfare I shall have the eatefSlgnted support of sll true
friends of the Empire and of the allied GvfenUBSnSj
without division or party differences. 1 also hold my?
self bound to support our national and social de?
velopment within the paths nf (SfSlltJ ai.1 ?ieni!y to op?
pose all efforts the him and tendency of which shall be to
undermine public order.
Iq foreign politics 1 am resolved to maintain peace with
evety ope, so far ss lt Hst in my power. My love for
the German army and my position In it would never In?
duce me to atttn.pt to SSMtsajp .- for the country th" bene?
fits of peace unless the necessity for \v;ir is fon"'l nj. rn
us by a sasaBS attempt on tho Empire or one of Its alli ?.
Our army will ass(lre us peas*; or if nseea bs butane ii
will enable us to light for it with honor. That, v.ith
God's help, will be possible for it to do by reason of the
strength lt ha.s derived from th" army laws foi
unanimously voted. To employ this Stmagtn for offensive
wars ls far fi om my heart. Germany needs neither new
military renown nor any conquest, slur*- she finally won
for herself by fight.ng the right to exist a-i ? united and
Independent nation. Our alliance with Austria ls pu.V
llcly known. I shall hold fast to it with German fidelity,
pot only because 1* exists, but because 1 see in this de?
fensive compu-.t the foundation for the malnt' I
th" BaftffSaa equilibrium, and alst, a legacy from Gorman
history, the purport of which the public opinion of the
whole German people SSnetaswJ and which corresponds
with European International law as lt has undisputal.lv
tvisud since 18?0. Similar historical relations and na?
tional needs now bind us to Italy. ??sa teeairiai will
tnsiutaln the blessings af natal and work out in the quiet
security of new-won unity ile; ix-rfeetlon of national In?
stitutions and the promotion of their welfare.
"ur existing agreements w,th Austria and Italy will
permit me, to my satisfaction, to maintain rey personal
friendship with the Czar and the friendly relations .-xi->
lng for a century with Rursla, which correspond with my
own feelings and German interests.
lu the consc entious caw of peace I shall devote mv-elf
equally as readily to the service of the Ea:borland as to the
eare of the army, and I rejoice In our traditional relations
to foreign Powers through which my endeavors in hah lit
of peace will be aided Trusting In God and n.y people's
ability for their defence, I entertain coi.iid-iice that lt
will be permitted to as for an lndenflite time to defend
and assure by peaceful effort what my two predecessors

was received arith great eiiiliiisleaiii. and on tho
motion of Governor ForaUer, ol Ohio, iBOensaSd
in vigorous ipeecheg bj many othi-r gentlemen
of the Convention, was promptly made unani?
mous.
With tho Presidential nomination out of the
way, that, of the Vice-Presidency peesented no
special ditlii'iilties. Here, too, the wishes of
New-York contributed ta bring about a speedy
result. In view of having yielded to tho remon
strancea of tin- West and sritbdrawn Depear, New
York now Baked that the ticket should be strength?
ened In the State by the nomination of Levi P.
Morton. To Tin-, in Ohio and Pennsylvania, at
i'ust, a majoritp of the delegate! rnadllj aaasBted,
especially as New-Vork supported the claims of
Morton as a unit. Thia threw an apparently iu
mrmoantable obstacle in the way of the candidacy
of William Walter Phelps, whose flinn's of se?
curing tho nomination, if Now-York had not unani?
mously supported .\fr. Morton, would have been ox
eellent The resnlt of the first ballot?591 for
Morton to 110 for Phelps?decided the contest in
favor of Levi 1*. Morton. Of course, the nomina?
tion was afterward made unanimous.
Great interest was aroused in the convention
after the Vice Praisdeatlal nnmlnatlciii by the ap
pearance of Congressman Boutelle upon tue plat?
form, holding in his hand a telegraph blank. Every
one supposed that ho was about to read a telegram
from some eminent personage, but instead he lead
the following resolution as an additional plank to
the Republican platform:
The tirst concern of all good government is the
virtue and sobriety of the people and the purity of
ii home. Tin- Republican party cordially sym?
pathise with ail wise and well-directed efforta for
the promotion of temperance and morality.
Mr. Boa telle said that he offered the plank in
i of B large numb-r of delegates, and he Beared
that tho rules should be suspended in order that lt
Blight he adopted. Beary W. Oliver, jr.. of I'uts
burg, one of the datBgjBtfg Bf lurga from Pennsyl?
vania, having imjierfectly heard the resolution,
objected to tts reception, and moved that it. lie rc
ferred to the Cotiimitteo on Resolutions. " Thais

said in an BXBated manner, ? and I
hepa that the el..i:rniait will enforce the rule
that such resolutions shall be referred without

Mr. BaateDe calmly said he thought the con?

Chairman Est o, after coolly informing Mr. Oliver
tli.it he was out of order, tinnily said: " The gen?
tleman from Pennsylvania will take his seat. Thb
? rgeant-at-arms will put him in his seat if he does
not obey.-1 ..\pyhmse and cries of "Sit down"1
iddnvsed hg Mr. Oliver from tho Convention.)
Cogswell and Johnson, of the New-York delega?
tion, also objected to the reading of the resolution
before h had beea examined ba the Com em mn.
Musted, of New-York, differed with them and mads
the point that the rtaahttlan could ba geed (or the

Oliver, afu-r taking his gani m BanaVsBsa ts tan
command* of aha sergvant-at-arms, bad again
jumped upon his chair and had appealed to the
delegates near him to resist the readme; of tIn?
resolution. But the thunder waa a very brief one.
Senator lliscock, of New-York, sprang up ana
said: " Mr. Chairman, I am sure that if this con?
vention hears that resolution it will adopt it. Na
Republican is ever afraid to licar anything, and ai
a Bartf/ we .are in favor of free debate. I a?k gen?

The resolution was read again and at once Otarra

applause. ~ I move," continued Senator lliscock,
" that the rules be suspended and the resolution

Mr. Thomjwon, former Secretary of the Navy.
Senator Hoar seconded the motion in behalf of
Massachusetts: M>. Henderson in behalf of Iowa
and other seconds followed, until Mr. Oliver ex*
cited general applause by saying: " Pennsylvania!
seconds tho motion."
It waa obvious that the plank mot with tho
unanimous favor of the Convention, and quickly
tho rules had been suspended and Mr. BoutebVs
plank had been adopted by a rising Tote of the
Convention. Tho result was greeted with loud
applause.

[BT TEL&r.lUFH TO THB TtmrXE. ]
Chicago, June 2.V ?Soon after the oldening of tha
Convention to-day Mr. Montello ros- to a question)
of privilege. Creed Haymond, of California,
Bl idently knew what was coming, for he at*
I milted to shut off Mr. Boutelle with a point of
order. But Mr. Boutelle persisted.
It was seen that ho, held some slips of paper in
his hand, and curiosity was aroused to the highest
pites* The trhiSBSB went around that hore at IasB
tresa the oabl 'grams from Mr. Blaine, which the
rumor mongers had been manufacturing in large
quantities every day for a week. Mr. Boutelle s
face wore an expression ol despondency, and it waa
easy to gnana that his cherished hope, that it might
bs possible to make Mr. Blaine the nominee, had
received a aheek Mr. Boutelle spoke in a low
tone, saying at -the outset that he was much ems
BBRSaaed in oven seeming to appear there in op*
position to the wishes of thc California delegation,
but it. had become his duty to present to the con*'
vention certain communications upon which ha
would not endeavor to place any construction*?
rheta wag a universal ? Sh, sh, ah" from all purta
of tho hall. Ho then proceeded to read two cable-*
grams resetted from Mr. Blaine, addressed to him?
self and Mr. Manley, tho first of them earnestly
requesting his frieuds to respect his Paris letter and
refrain from voting for him, and tho second re?
peating this wish with the comment that he
thought ho had thc right to ask this. These were
listened to :n profound silence, and Mr. Boutelle,I
without further words, left the platform. The
clerk began the roll call. Alabama announced her
votes, and nmong them was one for Blaine. Af
this evidence of persistent attachment, there waa'
applause, which swelled into a loud cheer as Creed
Haymond shot up with tho same swoop of bia
right arm and tho same wag of his long beard,
to announce the lo' votes of California still fop
Blaine.
It was immediately apparent that Harrison wa*
making small gains all along the line.
BBW-TDBB SOLID FOR UAKltlbOff.
When Now York was called. Chauncey M. Dopew.
rose and announced 72 votes for Benjamin Har?
rison. This was thc result of busy effort*
during tho whole of Sunday to bring the
delegation together, for the sake of the moral
effect it would have, not only upon the action of
the convention, but upon thc position of the dele*
garton before the convention. The attacks off
" Tho Chicago Tribune" upon Mr. Depew andi
the New-York delegation had much to do with
bringing about this union. It was fully deter*
mined at a meeting of the delegation this morn*
ing to stand by General Harrison, so long as there
was a prospect of his nomination, and it waa
generally understood that when it became appurenB
that this could not be brought about, the delega?
tion should turn unitedly to Sherman. When Mr.
Dspew ma<le the announcement, there waa a iotni
Harrison cheer. It was tho first time, it is saul,.
that the New-Y'ork delegation had voted solidly
for a ra nd Matt in twelve years?since the con?
vention in which they voted for Roscoe Conkling.
The vote of North Carolina was divided, exactly
ns before, between Sherman, Alger and Harrison.
A BKEAK IN THE OHIO IlKLEUATION.
When Ohio was called, Governor Foraker rose
hall' way, and shot out with a pugnacious air
Ihe announcement of 4ti votes for Sherman, asl
if he wanted it distinctly understood that he
was for Sherman and not for anybody eh>e. To
the surprise of every one, a tall fellow, named
Luckoy, arose in dat body of the delegation and
(-ha I longed the vote. Instantly thc whole dclega-'
tion was in excitement. Governor Foraker and
ex-Governor Foster hurried down the aisle, and
they and others'wore seen pleading and expostu?
lating with Luckoy. He persisted, however, and'
the delegation was polled with the result that Mr.
Lot key was found to bo the only delegate who did
not want to be counted for Sherman, and he voted
for Harrison.
Pennsylvania gave Sherman fifty-four this time,.
a gain of one, laBTing six for Harrison. Tennes?
see gave Blaine eight votes in spite of tho letters
and th ? telegrams, B gain of four over the laat bal?
lot of Saturday. Vermont cast all her eight votes
for Harrison, as she had done from the beginning.
The Virginia delegation continued to give,
trouble. John S. Wise rose and said that ten
members of the delegation refused to give theil
votes, and asked that the roll bc called. This
was laboriously done, and it was found that Harri?
son had lost one and Blaine two, and that Alger
had gained one and Allison twa In West Vir?
ginia, Harrison lost one, and in Wisconsin he
trained one, receiving all but one of the solid deles
[ration.
The Territories scattered about as usual, ex
:ept that Dakota united, for the first tiiA*. and
rjBvg a solid vote to General Harrison.
Hie totals wen-: for Sherman, -j 14, a gain of
!0 over the last ballot; Harrison, 231, a gain of
h; Alger, 1.17, a loss of ,".: Gresham, 91, a gain
if 4: Allison. T.'i, a loss if 2*5; Blaine, 40. a lose
if 8; McKinley, 12, a loss of 2, and the rest
wtlaiing.
THE TURNING POINT BEACHED.
This was the crisis of the Convention. Harrison
nd Sherman wen- almost exactly on a leveL
lie nomination must uo to one or the other. The
daine element in the Convention felt more friendly
o Harrison than to Sherman for many reasons*
t, was well known that the New-York delegation,
he moment it became apparent that Harrison
ould not bo nominated, would swing ita 72
otes to Sherman ; that Wisconsin and other States
ravid follow suit and that Sherman would be
ominafed. The time had come to strike, and
'alifomta. which had cast its 1? votes solidly for
Haine for six ballots, begun.
" California casts 13 votes for the grandson of
ld Tippecanoe, and 1 vote for Alger." cried]
Masai Creed Haymond, amid the cheers of the
larris.n men. H. T. Gage, of Los Angeles,
emanded a roll call. It didn't in any way,
Bttaaa the rota bj announced. Chairman Estee,
f tho Convention, voted " Harrison'' in a dis
inct voice from the platform, when his nama
,as called.
? William B. Harrison." shouted Delegate IT*
7. Ilsington, of Santa Rosa, and his curious)
luoder sot the whole Convention laughing.
