SLEEP ON.
To the memory Of my esteemed friend
Harden Frank1in Sharp, who died
Monday, March FL. 1881.
M A. J. REYNOLDS.
Sleep on, my lost friend tho the hearts wildly throb
That from earth you shosld pass away,
Iis the win Of the Father, and you've gone from sh
To the light Of glorious day.
Rest in peace, noble heart, grand and great,
When the hour Of parting hsd come
You succumbed like martyr, at the bidding Of God,
And went in Joy to His home.
Sleep on, loving heart, 50 upright and true
In all Of your dealings ON earth.
The pride Of your father and mother and all
From the fortunate day Of your birth
And oh II is hard that 80 early in life
You should by deaths angel be cleft,
You should leave your fond treasure dear little
Grief laden and sorey bereft.
Sleep on valued frent, though the winds mady rave
Der the tomb where thy form Is laid,
They wake not thy sleep, disturb not thy dreams,
And dispel not the gloom the shade
That hangs DER the hearts Of the loved who
For the loss Of their JOY and pride;
That darkened the souls on that bleak, dreary morn
When their lov'd one resignedly died.
Sleep on Harden Sharp, let the sweet flowers bloom
In rapture and JOY over thee,
Let the zephyrs take up and dispense their perfume
In quantity lavish and free.
Sleep on, gallant heart, righteous and just,
Sleep on meath the fresh budding sod,
Though they simply on earth commit you to dust,
Your soul will i've with It's God. ...
Sleep on, Harden Sharp, till the trumpet shall blow
That rings out the knell of mankind,
TIL we're I'll gathered in and In meekness shall bow
At the touch Of the Almighty's hand.
Oh, then, the fond hearts that griere for you now
Shall join you forever above,
Where happiness fingers and joys ever flow
From the fountain Of endless love-

A JUBILEE.

Immediately after the adjournment Of the
convention the exuberant youngsters who had
carried out their programme, and nominated
every man on their slate, hunted up the Great
Union band, and at 10 o'clock the brazen notes
of triumph awoke the early retirers of the
Merchant hotel A crowd soon assembled,
and after one or two popular airs, the band
took up position in the spacious rotunda, and
after playing another air, the crowd called for
Gen. Hubbard, who appeared, leaning on the
arm of Gen. Jennison, the Won Moltke Of the
day. n-yo-r Il
The appearance of Gen. Hubbard was greet
ed with, loud applause, and after silence had
been obtained, he briefly returned thanks for
made He was especially gratifed that the
action of the convention was endorsed
by those who were not delegates. He
trusted that no action of his would
cause regret st the action taken. If the
nominations made by the convention were
ratified by the people at the coming election,
so far as he was concerned, he would endeavOr
to justify their expectations.
Three cheers were given, and the general
retired. .rssssr s..lr (.
Gen. Jennison followed in one of his humor-
Gus speeches, during whlcn he gave some
advice to the daily papers s(meaning all the
time the Pioneer Press). He said the daily
papers had the advantage of the weeklies, be-
cause they could lie every day in the week /,
and could take it back and apologize the next
day. He knew this to be fact, for he had
run daily paper for one week, and could not
be mistaken. The fact was that the daily
papers were too hurried to publish the truth,
and the Pioneer Press, being blanket sheet,
took this method OF lying one day and apollo
giving for it the next. in order to fill its col
umns. Great laughter. .aS AS sa.51.
At the conclusion Of Gen. Jennison's re-
marks, loud calls were made for Gov. Davis,
which were drowned only by the band playing
| a medley of popular airs, among which was,
"Tramp, tramp. tramp, the boys are march
| ing" etc. etc. 49,, =. s. ~,
Col. Hooker, OF Minneapolis, was next in
troduced, who endorsed the entire ticket as
being composed Of the right men in the right
place, and a ticket he and the Republicans oi
| Hennepin county would be glad to support.
Loud calls were then made for Baker, Davis
and others, when voice called for "Wheel
ock." The mention Of the latter name

The Conventiom-Noon Session.

The delegates were mostly assembled at the
Opera house few minutes before IL, the hour
named in the call, and it was apparent that the
paraquette would not, as in former years, hold
the whole convention. Capt. Blakely, chair
man of the state committee, on calling the
convention to order. remarked that the COM
mittee in fixing upon the former basis of rep
resentation, Zone for each four hundred Re.
publican votes,) was aware that
the convention would be an unwieldy
one. Still they had felt it their duty to appor-
ton delegates on the old basis. Yet as the
delegates found themselves crowded, the COM
mittee felt called upon to excuse themselves.
He then alluded to the death of the late presi.
dent, saying he would not attempt to eulogize
him, but supposed the proper committee
would discharge thst duty.
Gen. j. b. Baker, of Blue Earth, nominated
Hon. j. B. Wakefield, of Faribault county, for
temporary chairman, and no other nomination
being made, he was elected by acclamation.
On appointment of Capt. Bakely, Gen.
Baker and Hon. W. H. Yale, of Winona, con-
Quoted Gov. Wakefield to the platform, and
Re was introduced to the convention by Capt.
Blakely.
Gov. Wakefield, being greeted with ap.
plause by the convention, said: "Gentlemen,
thank you for the honor. Who will you
have for secretary?"
HCol. 81. G. Hicks, of Hennepin, nominated
G. W. johnson, of the same county, for sec.
retary, and he was elected by acclamation.
M. G. Russell, of st. Louis, and M. D. l.
Collester, of Waseca county, nominated by
Gen. Jennison, were elected assistant secre.
taries.
F. Driscoll, Of Ramsey, moved the appoint
ment of committee of thirteen on credea
tials. Carried.
Col. Hicks moved the appointment of
committee of thirteen on resolutions. Car
ried.
Hon. A. Barto, of Stearns, moved com
mittee OF thirteen to select state centra, com
mittee. The chair thought the motion pre-
mature and it was not urged.
j. d. Farmer, of Fillmore, moved a com
mittee of thirteen on permanent organization
Carried.
Gen. Baker suggested the removal of tn
committee to the Athen@um, saying it wa
NOR. convenient and commodious than tn
Opera house, and that there, twenty-five year
ago was held the convention which sent dele
gates to nominate Abraham Lincoln.
A. F. Norden, OF Kandiyohi, suggested re

A Sad Accident.

A painful accident occurred near the st.
Paul Plow works yesterday afternoon, result
ing in perhaps serious injuries to an s-year-
old lad named Henry Harris, son of one of the
managers of the works. The lad was riding
on lumber wagon, which joited and threw
him under the running gear, one of the wheels
passing over the left leg and breaking that
member near the thigh.
The little fellow was conveyed to the resi-
dence of his parents on Seventh street, where
DR.. Quinn was summoned and dressed the in
juries. 1t is thought that the effects will not
last beyond few weeks.

as district attorney of Waoashaw county,
which he had held for many years. 1t was a
matter of right and justice that he should re-
eIve the nomination.
Mr.. G. E. Cole seconded the nomination,
and alluded to the conspicuous ability dis
played by Mr.. Hahn in the discharge of his
public duties.
Col Benton placed the name of Fayette
Marsh, OF Washington, in nomination, and
urged his selection on the ground of locality,
