convention vas called upon to listen TO any
thing else except the band.
An innovation in the usual course of pro-
ceedings was made by the chairman calling
upon another reverend gentleman for q second
prayer IN the same days proceedings The
gentleman selected for this service was Rev
Thos q. Green. OF Cedar Rapids, Ia. He wore
/ the full black Of the Episcopal church. he is
a tall man with full trimmed jst black beard.
| He spoke with penetration that should be the
/ envy of some of the orators who have addressed

choose man "of clean hands and pure heart,
one who is above all selfish ambition. one
whose aim win be his country and his God"
AT 6:25 the chairman announced to the i'm :
patient convention that the platform was ready
and would be presented by Mr.. Jones, the
chairman. .e- IS. l-llI sLAf sf
Mr.. Jones from the platform, amid cries of
louder" which grew in intensity. said:
vRNTIoN: presume that this committee in its
relations to tho convention presents case of
being better late than never" i wish to say,
however, in behalf OF my colleagues that any
delay to which you have been subjected was
due to no lack Of diligence or industry their

| LET the secretary read."I
| Mr.. Jones: If you will be a little qu1eter
perhaps there will be no difficulty in hearing,
am Instructed by the committee on reSolu-
| tons to present to you as the report of the
committee the following resolutions and to
I ask their adoption. In order that you may
more distinctly hear what the committee has
prepared intend to ask the gentleman who ia
| familiar with the pbraseology to read them for
me and as soon as they are read, I shall move
the previous question upon the adoption Of the
| platform. ufrr tEi fAshA t.4 "a NO&
Mr.. Jones closed by asking Mr.. Villas. OF Wis
consin, to read the platform
Mr. Villas began to do SO in his magnificent
| sonorous voice and most impressive style. g
| The first mention of Cleveland's name in the
convention was when Mr. Villas in the first
paragraph Of the platform, read from Madison
to Cleveland" 1t called out the joint enthusi-
asm Of the delegates. The Syracuse men led
the cheering as the Cleveland delegates aud the
Cleveland n1on In the galleries spranR TO their
feet waving mats, handkerchiefs and fans. H.
I IL was twenty minutes after the shouting be-
gan before Mr.. Villas could bring his big voice
TO bear on the convention again, and even then
| il had to run brief competition with murmur
OF suppressed enthusiasm that continued to
run through the audience. AtiHaf 2 ,Ftai
The further reading of the document was at
times punctuated with applause: but its ex
treme length seemed to diminish its interest.
When the silver plank was reached there was a
stronger outbreak of approval than at any por-
ton of the platform
The familiar phrase, public Office is public
trust" which followed was promptly recog-
nized and brought out another but very brief
Cleveland demonstration. 4
The civil service plank called out more Kisses
than cheers. The galleries applauded the con-
domination Of the republican Office. holder S con-
vention. Very few demonstrations were made
by the delegates themselves at any point Not
counting Interruptions the platform occupied
thirty five minutes in the reading. It's conclu-
sion was obviously welcomed as a relief
