Minnesota Republican Tariff Plank Good Enough for
DsmOcras-Nsw Hampshire Democrats
Nominate Colorado ard South
Carolina Conventions.

ST. PAUL, September 6.-The second
days session of the Republican State Con-
vention began this morning with the re
port of the Committee on Platform, read
by Gen. Gordon E. Call, as follows: 1t
endorses the National party platform, com
mendsd the temperance plank, fsvors civil
service reform, and supports the Inter
State Commere law. The tariff plank is
as follows:
The Republican party of Minnesota sd-
heres to the repeated declaration of the
State and National platforms, in favor Of
the modification; readj ustment and reduc-
ton of the tariff, and reiterstes the views
of the Republican Presidents, Garfield and
Arthur, upon the same subject, as we'll as
the recommendations of the commission
appointed under the last Republican ad-
ministration.
Ii declares that all measures of tariff ad-
justment should be framed and conceived
in cautious and conservative spirit, 30 a.
not to disturb or impair interests which
have grown up under existing revenue
laws, and as far as possible to relieve the
people from unnecessary taxation upon ar
ticles which do not enter into competition
with American industry; that in every
such measure of revision regard should be
had to such adjustment of the revenue
among the articles subject to taxation
as, while providing adjustment for the
support of the government, will afford
sufficient protection to those industries
which can be proftably pursued in this
country, and which require protection
against foreign competition, and as far as
practicable place on the free list articles of
prime necessity which enter into the ordi-
nary consumption of the people.
The platform was Immediately adopted
as read, with only one dissenting voice.
The convention now proceeded to the elec.
ton of State ticket, and Chief Justice OF
the Suprsme Court James Gilfllan and
Associate Justice l.. w. Collins, we're re-
nominated by acclamation.
Merriam was nominated in the 9th bal
lot for Governor.
