1--WE can go home tonight with the
hone that the laws of St. Paul will be
enforced if we DO our duty in the COM
ing election; that the saloons will be
closed on Sunday, and that the theaters
will not be run with full houses on
Sunday evening while the churches are
empty. tits our duty to vote for the
man we nominated last Monday night,
who has promised to do all this If ne is
elected. We have doIe great thing
tonight, and by standing by our declare
ton we are certain to accomplish more
than we have ever done before. We
can 20 home assured of the fact that If
we do our dutyas we have planned, the
laws OF St. Paul will be enforced here
after"
Thus spoke Oscar Wolf. the Prohi-
bition nominee for assemblymaR. the
only one not on the citizens tcket, last
evening, just before the adjournment OF
the convention held in the Bethel mis-
sion at the foot of Sibley street. His
speech was loudly apDlauded. and TO
the question, What is the matter with
Wolt?' the answer came back that
shook the boat:
"WOlPs all right"
Last evenings convention of the Pro-
hibltionists was curious affair, but in
several ways carefully planned. Nearly
all the Republican candidates for ward
aldermen were indorsed and really
nominated as straight Prohibitionlsts,
but Messrs. Wright and McCardy were
not treated the same way. 1t seems
that Col Wright is satisfied with his
Endorsement of last Tuesday evening,
and so last nigh: those Prohibitionists
who desired to 90 through the form of
| nominating Mr. Wright were told that
it had been done. The action of the
convention last evening on the head of
the ticket is an Endorsement in return
for certain pledges made by Col. Wright
without placing him under the neces-
sity of making formal and public ac-
ceptance The following resolutions
that were adopted show this fact:
Whereas, We approve of the action of the
citizens comnittee in their efforts TO separ
ate municipal affairs from party politics,
and that committee has made aud will file
certificates of nominations for mayor and
comptroller and nine members OF the as
sembly.
Resolved, That we make no further nom
nations for said offices.
A motion to compliment the Republic
cans for their platform was made, but
withdrawn on the ground such action
might damage the Republican ticket.
One of the brethren claimed that the
Turner hall platform is the same as the
Prohibition platform of two years ago.
He did not charge that it had been
stolen yerbatimset literatim, because he
was glad the Republicans had expert
enced change of heart. The proceed
logs of the Bethel convention in Diet all
are interesting. A careful report fol-
lows:
Don't in Detail
The prohibition convention was slow
| in getting together at the Bethel last
evening, but whenit was called TO order
| by Chairman Drew the delegates were
all present. Previous to this there were
some heated debates over Col. Wrightis
status on the prohibition question. Sew
eral Of the delegates insisted that he
had declared that he was with them on
| the liquor question; that he was opposed
! to the saloon, and would see that the
! Sunday theaterS were closed. With
! this understanding the majority of the
| delegates at once agreed that the in
| dorSement given Col. Wright last Nom
day evening should not be rescinded.
The proceedings were opened with
prayer as usual, Rev. DR.. GuIette being
called upon to pray. He asked the
Divine Power TO help them in their eff
forts TO overturn the liquor power.
I'VE come" he said, "with zeal and
unanimity that has not hitherto char
acterized our efforts. May we seek the
| good of all and not one personal and
| party ggrandizements." The role was
| called and delegates substituted for
those not present. a motion was then
adopted authorizing the appointment of
a committee consisting OF one from
each ward to suggest names for a city
ticket. The mover of this resolution
was, of course. that celebrated reformer
Dan W. Doty. The committee selected
| follows: ~,
/ First ward, c. A Fowble; Sacond. Osear
| Wolf; Third, o. 4. Firehammer; Fourth
| W. A. Powers; Fifth, G. d. Spicer; Sixth, J
| e. IacSey; Seventh, w. A. NJ cMarigaI.
| Eighth. j. NJ. Dahiby; Ninth. W. A. Fosol;
Tenth D.. Morgan; Eleventh. d. W. Do;yx
