publican convention, held at st. Paul Septem-
Der 2, it Is apparent that the candidates placed
before the people of Minnesota were not the
choice of the people but rather the favorites
and nominees of those who seek their election
to the nigh and responsible positions in our
State government for their own personal and
selfish ends. Therefore
Rcs0lrcd, That it is the duty of the Democ-
rncy of Minnesota to place in nomination can
dldates for the State offices who stand foremost
among our citizens az men of ability and in
tegrity, and qualified to perform tho respousi-
Bile duties pertaining to the proper manage
ment of our State affairs.
