| A short horse Is soon curried, and
acting on this theory the business of the
Republican county convention TO elect
delegates 10 the state convention, which
meets in st. Paul today, was carried
through with rush, in odd contrast to
the tedious methods that ordinarily
prevail.
The convention was called to order at
1920 O'Clock yesterday morning In
Normanna hall by George A. Bracket,
and City Attorney Simpson nominated
Charles A. Pillsbury for temporary
chairman.
In taking the chair Mr.. Pillsbury
said:
IL hardly know whether to thank you
or not" said he, "tor have done all In
| my power to prevent it. l think the rea-
son is that all the members here but me
want to go TO ST. Paul. 1t has been said
by our wicked enemies that slate has
been made up, and it was already in
somebody's pocket. | only want men

he elected in the fall. We have had
enough of Democratic rule and want
TO get @gain under the Republican wing.
| Applause. Minnesota has renamed
true to the old party, and you see no
strikes and turmoil here. That is owing
TO our state government"
James McMuIlen was elected tenn
porary secretary. A committee of three
was appointed on credentials, consisting
of 5. l.. Trussel, q. w. Marchant and
| f. q. Drew. A motion was made that
the committee on resolutions should
| consist of seven men, to whom they
should be submitted without debate.
The committee on resolutions ap.
pointed consisted Of gene Hay, +.
| Brown, j. II, Ryberg, j. +. Byers.
| George P. Flannery. Andrew j. Smith,
of Brooklyn, and p. b. Wolstoldt. of
| Long Lake.
While the committee on credentials
was out the convention was regaled
with speeches by r. q. Evans. Mayor
Eustis. John Day Smith, F. +. Davis
and others.
Mr.. Evans spoke first, and among
| other things he said:
Il am heartily glad to see you in such
numbers. When the Republican party
| is called ii has never been found want
| ing. In 1860, with the country grooming
| under the hand Of Democracy, the Re
| publican party came from the people to
! the rescue, and now. in 1894, it will
| again come to the aid OF the country
and rescue it from threatened Democ.
raCy. We are now on the eve of most
mOInentous campaign. The Republican
| party is the party OF protection ana Of
| law and order, and 1t Will bring out
victory in this year, which will mean
| good times, good wages and protection
| to the American people in every sense"
In response to calls Mayor Eustis un
| corked his elOquence, and expressed
himself as follows:
This is happy day, for l feel that
| this is the beginning of good times. L
| see men here who have gathered to see
men elected to Off &c who have brains to
run the machinery of government. What
| wreck mas come TO this country from
what it was two years ago. Out of this
| army gathered here, will march COM
! pany of los, on to ST. Paul, and follow
| ing them will be the great army of the
| Republican party to victory. l like the
! Republican party. for 1t is courageous
| party. IL can criticiSe President Cleve-
| land, and can say well done when he
| does we'll. 1t is the party which can
encourage labor. yet can lay the firm
| hand upon labor's mSdeeds. You are

want to tell you that In all these dis
turbances In the East, there was but
| one arrest for drunkenness Yesterday,
and that was in the Eighth ward. Wild
applause and laughter. 1t will be a
glorious thing when all these labor
| matters are submitted to peaceful arbi-
| tration."
! John Day Smith responded to the call
for speech, and he proceeded TO take a
| little of the starch out of the 1impid
eloquence of Mayor Eustis.
He stated that he would not have re-
sponded to the call. were it not for the
mayors covert attack upon the Eighth
ward. He accused the mayor of having
| put the tlpsey man Oh the Nicollet ave-
nue. line. and then telephonad Capt.
Day. of the Eighth precinct, to arrest
him.
Mayor Eustis has said that this is the
happiest day of his life. | can't say
that for myself" The speaker dwelt
upon the unsettled condition of the
| country, saying the year 1893 was longer
than any other year since 1864, and the
| Republican party was to the fore for
law and order, the protection of Amer
lean industries and American labor.
| The mayor replied, denying the street
car episode in full, and left it to the
| audience who was the unsteady party
OH the car.
The temporary officers were then
| made permanent.
The report of the committee OH Gre
dentials was then read and, there being
no contests, it was adopted. 1t was de-
cided that the los delegates to the state
convention should be selected from The
| ward delegates, and committee was
appointed to report the apportionment
among the wards.
LIST OF DELEGATES.
Mr.. Hall read the list of apportion-
ments and the meeting broke I'D into
small caucuses to select the personal of
the ward and county delegates, to re-
port TO the committee. The majority of
wards were through III short order but
in few the task was more difficult, and
there were several little tussels and
elections before the names were placed.
The Fifth ward had an especially lively
| time OH the stage and it was found
| necessary to appoint committee of
four to retire and make up list of
names for that ward which were passed
upon before the selection was made.
The delegates were apportioned as
follows, by wards: First. 4: Second. 4;
Third, IL; Fourth, Is; Fifth, Is: Sixth.

teenth. 2; country, IA; total, los. This
number includes the i've at large which
were placed with the number allowed
by presidential vote, without special
selection OF the convention.

by vote:

public services OF our esteemed fellow
citizen, David NJ. Ciough, lieutenant
governor of this state, and, recog-
nizing his pre-eminent qualification for
