W. 2. Murray, of the committee on

Of making the temporary organization
permanent, adding as vice presidents: l..
i. Reed, Ramsey; A. Z. Ankeny, Henne-
pin, and w. S. Conrad. Washington. In
accepting this second honor, Senator Du-
rant made
A FORCTBLE SPEECH
on the subject of the two state platforms.
You may have noticed, said he, that the
Republican press has been criticlsing our
platform. l have it here in this memoran-
DUN book and would advise every Democrat
to DO the same. II you will look over the
Republican platform you will see they have
taken all the salient points of our plank rela-
tive to the agricultural interests. In plain
parlance they have been guilty of plagiarism.
We put in an honest plank. 1t had not
knot, and no rot, but WAS made of the same
old oak that is under the constitution. 1t had
an honest ring to it, and the Republicans, e.
lieving it had value, copied it. The genuine
may be easily detected from the spurious.
Applause. Every plank was put in to meet
the exigencies OF an occasion. had the
honor of going before the state committee
and urging the holding of our convention
first Heretofore we have lived only on hope,
but this time there was d great cry for
change all over the state, and the committee
met and we will grantit. Then came that noble
platform. They meant every word they used
in it. 1t was no Guilds play that induced it,
as to-day 1 see sitting before me men from
every walk of life, met here for the single
purpose of putting in nomination man who
knows their wants, and knowing,
DAREs TO ADVOCATE THEM.
TApplause We have been heretofore the
fororn hope against the legions which have
announced themselves the soldiers friends.
But it remained for Democratic convention
to enunciate and promulgate the principles.
platform and the actions which stamp them
the real friends. When we were drafting
these resolutions there came before US a sol
der, covered with sears asking for fair duty
for the boys in blue-t0 the honor of the
eleven regiments that went from Minnesota.
He said tifty-one old soldiers were the
inmates of poor houses in the state.
l begged the committee, for decency's sake,
to change that and simply say they were
objects of charity. And yet the Republican
party, with everything at its command, has
taken no steps to provide for these veterans.
We made strong demand in our platform.
and the Republicans saw the mistake they
had made and went to work and plagiarized
it. In that great conflict Democrats and Re-
publicans marched shoulder TO shoulder, yet
the Republicans to-day claim victory over
the Democrats. It is falSehood, as is proved
by tie Democrats in the hospitals. We care
nothing about their claims, though they
claim every thing. They even had the
effrontery TO put something in their platform
about civil service reform, but we care moth
ing about how much or how soon they reform
themselves. We have put at the head OF our
ticket DR.. Ames Prolonged Cheersl, whose
kind heart has carried aim to so many sick
beds without fee or recompenSe. Applause. |
He has the strongest personal following in
the state TApplausel, and il matters not what
may be said against him by the press which
obeys merely party behest. Those who know
him call him an honest citizen and an honor
able man, and he is the best man who does
the most good to his fellow men. Applause.
The Republicans over in our county have
even plagiariZed him and have put seven doc
tors on their ticket. You see our leaders
have built wisely and well good foundation,
and see those before me who will rear the
glorious superstructure. Applause.
P. II. Kelly-Now, Mr.. Chairman, if all is
ready for nominations, call on Mr.. Wilson.
