DON’T LIKE THE TICKET.

Board of Trade Merchants Think the Nominations Are Weak. [Chicago dispatch.] On the Board of Trade the dissatisfaction over the nomination of Harrison was very general. Many Republicans who have been with the party since its organization come out openly in the presence of both their Republican and Democratic friends and declare their intention of bolting the ticket. No attempts were made to disguise their opinions. Little knots of members gathered in all parts of the Exchange Hall and openly discussed the situation, while everywhere the general opinion was the same. Some declared their intention of voting the Prohibition ticket, white others said openly that they should vote for Cleveland. Mr. Harrison could point with more pride to his grandfather’s grave if he had gone to the trouble and expense of providing a monument for it some years ago when his attention wus first called to its neglected condition.
