SPEECHES.
Rev. j. Y. Cowhink received a popu-
lar invitation to address the convention,
and was given an ovation when he ap-
peared on the platform. DR.. Cowick
said he was proud to be invited to speak
Tor the party of progress, activity and en-
ergv, and the party having the majority
IN the United States. Though Grover
Cleveland was defeated by President Har-
rison he had several hum ID thousand
more votes than the az Ag chief ex-
ecutive. He was proud of the Democratic
party, because away back in the early
days the hrst legislature of the territory
OF Wyoming composed entirely of Demo
Gratis, had entranchised women. A ieal-
Gus opposition had charged that this was
a playful prank, but he knew that a COM
mittee had secured the pledge Of Governor
Campbell that he would approve the bill.
1t was the Democratic blood In Mr..
Campbell that made him sign the
measure, for In early life be had been of
the party. Another cause for pride was
the intelligence Of the Democracy. In
auries set on foot by Republican paper
had proven that circulations of Demo
cratic papers and magazines exceeded that
of Republican publications The bone
and sinew, courage, push and enterprise
OF Democracy established Wyoming, and
the party should rightly govern it. In
Laramie county we have started right
and by keeping up the march can elect
every candidate on the list. Blaine had
now come over, making thousands more
Democrats in all but name. This state
ought and will be Democratic. There is
a strong undercurrent flowing in this d.
r%ection. Republicans are becoming weary
OF their party leaders and methods. Long
and loud applause followed DR.. Cowbick's
speech.
Gen. Thompson was called upon. He
paid a delicate compliment. to the large
number of ladies' present by saying that
all men wero dumb in the presence
of beauty. He would not make a speech,
but wished to emphasize DIR. Cowhick's
remarks. Not only had Democrats first
enfranchised women, but the presence of
the equal suffrage clause in the state con-
stitution was due to the efforts of Demo
Gratis. They took the responsibility. The
Republican demagogues we're shouting
that they had achieved statehood. Wyo-
ming Democrats we're for the advance.
ment and worked to that end. In con-
gress Democrats had only shown the
party love Of Justice in insisting on the
admission OF other territories as well
fitted as Wyoming. In closing, Gen.
Thompson admonished Democrats to
catch fast hold OF the truth. The speaker
was loudly cbeered on concluding.
