SECOND DAY.
The Last of 1t.
FARGO, Aug. 3-[SpecialH con-
vention met this morning to receive the
report of the committee on resolutions.
The platform is brief, endorsing the ad-
ministration, national and state, and de-
claring that in the success of the repub-
lican state ticket, we will have an assur-
nee of continuation of everything
which tends to good government, the
observance of the constitution and en-
forcement of all laws of our state. This
is all that can in anyway be construed
as to refer to prohibition. A
stronger resolution was voted down
on the ground chat prohibition was
not the issue. Strom for presidential
elector declined, and Yeager of Benson,
who received next the highest vote, was
substituted. '- 49, 81
