The report was amended by admitting Polk
county aud adopted.
The committee on resolutions, composed of
I. Shapleigh Of Polk, NJ. Richardson of
Morrison, and Frank Gayhigan of Otter Tail,
then submitted the following report, which
was adopted:
REVOLUTIONS.
WHEREAS, The extraordinary and disgrace
full proceedings o! unprincipled partisans at
the opening Of this convention makes 1t ap-
parent that the representative rights of the
people, exercised by the legitimate and usual
PRACTICES of holding town caucuses and county
conventions for the expression OF their wishes
and selection of their choice, are no longer to
be regarded by fragrant schemers, we do set
forth our condemnation and disapprobation,
and make our protest against the same in the
following resolutions:
RESOLVED, That the Republican congressional
convention called the central committee of the
Fifth congressional district of the state of
Minnesota, called to order at Detroit, July IL,
1882, by the chairman, after due authorization
W Tue sdiu central cOHlulltUet, Is I06 ONLY True
convention of the Republican party for said
district.
Resolued. That the Republican dele
gates duly appointed by means
of county conventions, duly called
and held for the several counties of said con-
gressiOnsl district are the only and exclusive
representatives of the will OF their constitu-
ents.
RESOLVED, That the Republicans of said dis
trict will never yield up their sovereign rights
to free representation and free choice of
their delegation of candidate to represent
them in congress.
RESOLVED, That the central committee have
no power to dictate to the said delegates when
assembled in convention, but only to serve
them in the moving of the regular official call
aud impartial organization of the said con-
vention for free elaboration and action.
Resotued, That majority of the said cen.
trail congressional committee, having made
and published the call in due form through
their chairman, had no power to displace and
ignore the rights of their chairman to call the
said convention to order after the hour for the
call, he having derived his authority as such
chairman from the Republican state central
committee.
RESOLVED, That the action of one of the said
committee, taken at the convention wherein
he assumed to take the place of the official
chairman who had called the said convention
to order for elaboration and action, was
gross and defiant usurpation of power which
belonged TO the convention.
RESOLVED, That this convention repudiates
and condemns in the most unequivocal terms,
the attempt made to foist upon it minority
chairman and so usurp the power of the said
convention by assuming toignore the author
1ty OF their own regularly elected chairman,
and assuming to secure a fictitious organiza-
fhQ will off, 81. AL,
elected delegates.
ResoLCed, That this people, by the usual
legitimate methods, and by the recognized
forms and practices always adopted, having
freely and voluntarily expressed their will and
wish, we deprecate and condemn this dishon-
orable, despicable and most infamous of meth
DDS inaugurated to subvert the free expres.
sion OF an overwhelming majority of said PEG.
pie of this district, deprives them OF their
rights as Republicans and citizens of free
commonwealth, and overthrow and disregard
the long honOred and heretofore recognized
precedents.
The next business was naming of candi.
dates for congress, and G. B Sleeper of
Brainerd, amid the " ildest cheering, nominated
G. F. Kindred. His speech was eloquent and
greatly applauded.
The call of counties was made and sixty
four votes were cast, all for Kindred
He was then declared the nominee amid ap.
plause that fairly made the window glass
rattle.
D. G. STAN, C.. shapleigh and H. C. Kendall
were appointed to wait on Kindred and in.
form him of his nomination. They soon re-.
turned and his presence called louder out
burst Of applause than any previous effort of
the day In that direction. 1t was some
moments before quiet was restored and he
the spoke as follows:
KIKDREp's SPEECH.
Mr.. Chairman and Gentleman of the Conven-
tion-At the risk of being criticized for such
an unusual statement for candidate to make
Twill say that not only hoped for this nomi.
nation but endeavored to secure it, and believ-
ing as l do that the people sympathize with
me, am pleased beyond expression at your
ratification of their wishes to-day. The posi-.

gress is worthy of any mans ambition, and
every honest effort to secure it is not only
| honorable but commendable. lam not sur.

suggested In connection with the office, but
when we consider what an empire ii embraces
the marvel is that SO few candidates have con
