a needless task. You all know who / am
going to nominate; you all knew before
you came to this convention who would
be your standard bearer. The man whose
name will present is known everywhere
throughout our wide domain. His name
is upon the tongue of every prohibitionist
in this country to-day. 4 brave general,
Christian gentleman, broad-minded
statesman-I nominate Clinton b. Fisk Of
New Jersey.
A WONDERFUL SCENE.
Such a demonstration as followed is only
seen in national conventions. The whole
convention arose and raved like something
mad. The New Jersey delegates jumped
up on their seats, tossed up their hats,
waved their handkerchiefs wildly and
yelled like Zulus. One of their number
held up an immense crank, and the con-
vention laughed and howled and screamed.
When this enthusiasm was at its highest,
a large portrait of the nominee was raised
above the platform. Below it was repre-
sentation of serpent coiled into the
shape of the letters Saloon. Upon
the serpent's neck was grasped
the hand OF Fisk. Below this rep
resentatiOn were the words, "Hail
TO the Chief" This unexpected
feature brought down redoubled storm
OF applause The chairman split the top
of the table with his mailer i'll his en-
deavor to quiet the tumult With every
cessation of the clamor some delegate
would cry out ''Three cheers for Fisk,
and the scene would be repeated.
Col. Cheves of New York moved to
make the nomination OF Gen. Fisk unani-
nous. Similar demonstrations as hereto
fore indicated the feeling of the tonven-
ton and he was declared the nominee OF
the convention for the presidency Of the
United States.
THE VICE-PRESIDENCY.
Mr.. Crantill of Texas moved that the
secretary proceed with the roll call of
states for the placing of e-presidential
candidates in nomination.
At the conclusion of the roll-call the
secretary announced that George w. Balm
of Kentucky, DIR. John A. Brooks of Mis-
souri,, J John 4. Tanner OF Alabama, Sam
Small OF Georgia and f. l.. Dahoney of
Texas had been placed in nomination,
and that Balm and Small had withdrawn
their names.
There were cries OF no" but the whole
matter was settled spontaneously when
the Hon. John T. Tanner withdrew in
favor of DR.. Brooks and was Immediately
followed by Mr.. Cranfill, who withdrew
the name OF Mr.. Dahoney in favor OF Or.
Brooks
The convention was already on its feet
when Mr. Christian OF Illinois moved to
make the nomination of Dr. Brooks unan-
imous The motion was declared carried
with hurrah, and the convention went
wild with enthusiasm, and every delegate,
while either waving a handkerchief or
hat WAS calling for Brooks

womAN's SUFFRAGE DEBATE.

The Adherepts to the New cause Win
Overwhelmingly After &uch Talking.
Each section OF the platform was adopt
Ell without much dissent or tiilibustering
until the 9TH section was reached.
Vow begins the fun" said Mr.. Small
to Chairman St. John.
The assertion proved to be correct
After the woman's suffrage clause was
read delegates all over the house jumped
70 their feet and screamed for recognition.
Mr.. Chaplin Wis. II move the ac-
oeptsnce OF the minority report"
M. Boole y. y. ~ move to lay that
motion on the table"
Prof 4. \. Hopins Il. Y.)-.I hope
the gentleman viii not do dishonor to the
fair name OF New York by insisting upon
his motion and shut off all debate"
After further clamor Dir. Booze with
drew his motion to table.
The debate then began, after the chair
stated that five minutes was the limit OF
speech-Inaking, and, anybody, whether
white or black, male or female, must SIT
down when the mallet falls upon the
table"
Mr.. A. A. Hopkins was called to keep
time. He took his station near Chairman
=. John with open watch In hand and
the fun began.
The CHAIR. {. Richmond OF Wis
consin has the floor for FIVE minutes"
Mr. Richmond-"W have here before
rs a question that is dividing the prohibi-
ton party North and South. Now do you
want to set this party back sixty years
while we educate the people up to the
same standard on woman suffrage 10
which they are already educated on pro-
hibition? We are willing 10 submit this
question TO the people as soon as this new
party gets into power and hope the gen.
erous women oil this convention Will agree
with Us upon this position"
Mr.. Dickie OF Michigan rose to point
o. order and moved that the rules be sus-
pended in regard 10 a five-minute debate
and that four speakers be allowed ten
minutes each to discuss the suffrage plank.
TIe also moved that Mr.. Mills and Miss
Willard appoint the speakers. The mo-
ton 10 suspend was put to vote and was
defeated by tremendous dissent.
Mrs Merriwether Of Tennessee was then
recognized by the chair. She began
cxcitedly, and as she warmed up she
became more excited, and jumped
around like juInping-jack. She said (:
All the gentlemen whom j have heard
oppose woman suffrage on the ground that
i vii loose votes in the South. L want 10

that the sentiment business was being carried
too far Judge Poole ,as way out of the turmoil
moved that committee be appointed to escort
Miss Willard To the platform, which was
adopted; but Gov. st. John appeared on the
platform at this moment, and the convention
arose to receive him.
1t was several minutes before Chairman De-
lano could introduce him.
EX-Gov. ST. JOHN INTRODUCED.
The Chair-"This man whose hand | hold
love as love no other man. and it has cost me
more to love him than any other man. and this
Is the proudest moment of my life to stand by
him, loving him as do. | now introduce him
to you-ex-GOv. st. John, your permanent
chairman"
The ex-Kansas Governor said:-'T appreci-
not only this honor but also the kind words
spoken by my good friend who has presided
over the preliminary deliberations ofsthiS body.
| know something of what it has cost him to
stand up for principle, and if there is any man
able to bear the cost it is Delano. He is worth
100000 000-not in gold or bonds-but he has
a wife who alone is worth that much"
MIR. st. John here related an experience he
had had at Mr.. Delano's home. member of
Mr. Delano's church had warned him that he
would be as dead as a mackerel if he PRAYED at
one OF ST. Johns meetings. He asked his wife
what he should do, and she said: "Prav
Henry, and die" ''Such a wife" said Mr. ST.
John, sis worth more than gold mine"
But l recognize the fact that we are here
for business he continued. 81 want to thank
you again for this honor. / would rather be
elected president of this convention than presi-
dent of the United States, elected by the rum
power of this country. The telegraph this
morning brought us the news that one of the
leaders of one of the old parties had come to
the conclusion that his party was crumblng,
and not wishing 10 be caught in the wreck,
vacated the premises and there is no
telling how soon word will come from the
white house saying: Il surrender to the homes
OF my country Let us now proceed to make
a record so that the generations that are to
come will call us blessed.
Now shall endeavor TO keep order and |
ask each of you to help me- This is not a
democratic or republican convention, but one
daughters. What is the pleasure OF the con-
yention?"
a COLORED BISHOP HEARD FROM.
Judge Drew of New York called for a speech
from Bishop Turner of the colored church of
Georgia. He was introduced and said he re-
garded the opportunity to speak to
ment of his life. He made quite
a lengthy address, and among other things
said that he had thought he could never be-
but had concluded that it had done all the good
ii ever would do, and that it was a good time
now for hOnestmen TO leave it and join another
party of emancipation. Not one to free the
negroes, but to emancipate the victims of
drink North, South, East and West He was
glad TO live in a country where every man was
a king and every woman a queen, and he be-
lieved the prohibition party to be party of

THE SALOON IN POLITICS.
How the Republican Party Plays Fast and
Loose With the Liquor Question.
Washington Post


There are republican states which are
held In the party. by saloon influence.
There are doubtful states that are some
times carried by the republicans through
the same influence. The state of Indiana.
for example, has not been carried for the
republican, ticket in any state or national
election since 1864 without a liberal sub
sidization of the saloons.
The most effective temperance move
ments of the past fifteen years have been
in strong democratic communities in the
South-in such states rs Kentucky, Ten
nessee and Georgia. So long as the saloon
was kept in party politics in that section
the work of restriction went steadily for
ward. As an illustration OF the untruth-
fulness of the Trib,tpe's statement let us
take the democratic state of Tennessee and
the republican state OF Illinois. Last wear
a large number OF the reputable citizens of
Tennessee asked for a submission of a pro-
hibition amendment to a vote of the Deo-
pie. Democrats do not believe in prohi-
bitiOn, but they do beiieve that people
should have a chance to amend their fun
damental law whenever there is anything
like a general demand for such chance
Therefore the Tennessee democrats
pledged themselves in their platform to
legislature promptly redeemed the pledge
The people had chance to decide for or
against prohibition, They decided in the
negative.
Not long ago the Illinoisrepublicans met
in convention at Springfield to prepare for
a state campaign. A prohibition Journal
whose editor was one of the most ardent
of New England republicans until re-
Gently, says, in a report of this typical re-
publican gathering, that 1.-The committee
on resolutions made its report without one
word about even temperance, not to men
ton prohibition. An anti-saloon repub-
ican present, noting the omission offered
a resolution favoring the submission of
a constitutional amendment. but in no
way indorsiag if. \ chorus OF cries and
Kisses greeded the resolution, and when
order was finally restored a pro-salOon
member moved to lay the amendment on
the table. The pro-saloonist was victori-
Gus by nearly a unanimous vote. Let il
be particularly noted that the convention
was not asked toindorse prohibition, even
in principle, but simply to allow the peo-
pie, OF the state to exercise a sovereign
right"
1t would not be an impossible or even a
difficult task to present columns OF illus
trations as forcible as these. There are
temperance men and anti-temperance
men in all parties. The republican party
Is the friend of the saloon in all places
where such friendship will help that party
to get offices. The democratic party has
never deceived the prohibitionists by
false promises.

methodist ministers of the day. In 1880
his parents moved to Clinton. Mich.
When four years old his fat her
died and the home of the widow
and her boys were stricken with poverty
and want. Clinton was sent to live with
a kind-hearted old farmer named Deacon

solder, said he, give dying comrade his last
drop of water. Friends, the experiences of
that war, if fully appreciated, ought to bind
the hearts of the North and South with bands
OF steel. They did and dared TO do what the
brayest men of the world have done. We
could rally together an army to-day that would
resist the combined powers of the world. Oh
1t Is grand thing to be an American. Such
memorial exercises as these mean more than the
simple cOmmemoratiOn of the acts of the dead
Among the lessons of the past is that wrong
doing is always followed by just ritribution.
Every man is his brothers keeper The dis
regard of that law cost us billions of treasure
and seas of blood. SO destructive has the
liquor traffic become that it is the supreme OBJ
Ject OF the American people to crush il out Of
existence. This is the browning issue of the
nineteenth century, and must succeed, for it is
right"
The Harmonica quartet of Nebraska, COM
posed OF ladies, next rendered a song. They
sang excellently, but the chairman would not
allow them to be encored.
LADY FROM TENNESSEE.
Mrs. Ida Merriweather of Tennessee was
the next speaker. She had pleasant delivery.
She said that the word gospel meant good
udIngs. 1t was the faithful few, like the pub
llcan in the bible, who wbuld have the glory of
blazing the pathway of the prohibition party.
Friends" said She eve who have come from
far and near to find the birth of a
new deliverer,t have we come in

hand" Mrs. Werriweather was listened to at
tentively. She closed her address by saying
that before the few fleeing hours OF the con-
vention had passed, the members would de-
eide whether they were true to the wOmanhoOd
of America and Fight.

est. john" said a delegate from Plainfeld,
" j., at the Grand yesterday, SIS not in very
high favor with the prohibitionists. He said
ne would not accept the nomination for the
presidency, but the fact is he could not get
it. The trouble with st. John is he is max
ing too much money out of the cause, and his
interest in it seems to be chiefly mercenary.
He never opens his head for prohibition unless
paid for it. His regular price is $50 an address,
aud he never goes on the platform until he has
the money in his pocket. The prohibitiOnists
understand him thoroughly and they have got
enough of him. He will have to occupy a back
seat hereafter"
