Mr.. James Dillon moved that the name of

as delegate from the Fitch ward. Mr.. Lee
was one of the horses OF the Democracy OF
Ramsey county, working faithfully and en-
ergetically for years for the good of the
cause, and he should be kept at the front
where he belonged. He would rather give
hundred dollars than be sent to Minneapolis
and have such a man as William Lee left at
home.
Mr.. Dillon's motion was adopted and the
ma me of Lee substituted for his as q dele
gate from the Fifth ward.
Upon motion of Capt. NJ. J. o'oonnor
the delegation was empowered to fill all va
cancies.
The report as amended was adopted, and
the convention adjourned.
