of the United States and the standard bearer of
the party was to be the Hon. Samuel J. Tilden.
Loud and tumultuous applauseI. The old man
who was paralyzed as reported would paralyze
his enemies in November. Laughter and ap-
plause The wrongs of eight years ago were
bound to be righted and this convention would
take pleasure in sending men to Chicago to par
ticipate in that great and noble work. Applause
He would not attempt a speech but would await
the further action of the convention.
THE PLATFORM.
Hon. o. NJ. Hall, of Red Wing, chairman of
| the platform committee, submitted the following
report.
! The Democrats of Minnesota in convention as
sembled, declare that the existing depression of
the business and industrial interests of the
country demand:
First-That public affairs should be admins
tered with the most rigid economy-that useless
offices should be abolished, superhuous officials
discharged, extravagant salaries reduced, and no
| appropriations made except those called for by
the necessities of the people and for the legiti-
mate expenses of government.
Second-That large surplus in the treasury
is ever existing incentive to wasteful eXtrava-
gance and official corruption. That it should be
reduced not by reckless appropriations but by a
| reduction of the taxes which create it. That
| this reduction of taxation should be made upon
the necessaries of life and not upon its luxuries
Third-That the present tariff is master
piece Of injustice, inequality and false pretense
1t has impoverished many industries to subsidize
a few. 1t prohibits imports that might purchase
| the products of American labor. 1t has degraded
American commerce from the finest to an inferi-
or rank on the high seas. 1t has cut down the
| sales of American manufactures at home and
abroad and depleted the returns of American ag-
riculture-an industry followed by half our peo-
| pie. 1t costs the people five times more than it
produces to the treasury, obstructs the process of
| production, and wastes the fruits of labor 1t
promotes fraud, fosters smuggling, enriches dis
! honest officials, and bankrupts honest merchants
We demand that all custom house tayation oh II
