ALL PRESENT BUT ONE
The Committee Sends Greet
ing. to the Democracy of
the State.
PEACE AND GOOD WILL
A Full Ticket and a Good
Ticket to Be Nom
mated.

Congressman Tawney's taunt In his
speech before the late and now much
lamented Republican state convention
that this is so Republican year that
the Democratic state central committee
could not get quorum for meeting
got its answer in the meeting of that
committee which was held in parlor
of the Ryan yesterday afternoon. Every
man was present i'll person or by proxy
except one, and in addition there were
several Democrats OF prominence with
the committee.
The following members answered to
the roll call: Vice Chairman Marek,
who presided, Chairman Cutcheon hav-
irving until the committee was on the
point of adjourning; Messrs. Clutch con,
Winston, Marek aud Smalley, of the
committee at large, and Me ssrs. Austin,
of Hastings; Dan Aberle, Of st. Paul;
Chris Hebron, of Rochester; John
Coleman, of Anoka. by David
B. johnson, of Minneapolis, as his
proxy, though Mr.. Coleman was present
also; Il. O. Craig, of GAINESVILLE. by Mr..
Cutcheon as proxy; John c. Wise, OF
Mankato, by j. j. Thornton, of St.
James. as his proxy; e. A. Moody, of
the United States customs service, by
j. j. MeCafferty as his proxy; Geotge A.

Livingston. of St. Paul. by ID. w. Law
Ter as his proxy, and Lars M. Rand, OF
Minneapolis.
Two plans of organization were sub
mtted 10 the committee and discussed,
and each was rejected. A general III
terchange of views on the condition Of
the party in the state followed. and re-
ports were made by the several mem
bers of the feeling and disposition of
the Democrats in their several localities.
The members were unanimous in the
report that the salk.in the Republican
organs of disposition OIL the part OF
the Democrats to fuse with the Popu-
lists or to uldorse their ticket was
without any foundations; that every
where the best of spirits prevailed,
and that the party would present
to all its enemies an unbroken anu
undaunted front. Whatever changes
were taking place in the realignment
| of men on party lines were from the
Republicans to the Populists, to whom
| there was Il stampedei i'll the southern
and western part of the state. The TACT
,thatin his Argyle speech Gov. Nelson
| ignored the Democrats entirely and ad-
| dressed his whole argument TO the
| Populists and their platform, was taken
as indicating that he and his managers
are aware of the nature of the political
changes taking place.
AS a result of the reports and or the
interchange of views it was thought ex-
pedient to send a message from the
committees 10 the Democrats of the
state, and Messrs. t. q. Winston, d.
W. Lawler and j. j. Thornton were APP.

vices from every section OF the state
sends greeting to the state Democracy,
and congratulates the Democrats Of
Minnesota on the bright prospect OF
electing a Democratic state ticket i'll tile
coming election. The selection OF goot
candidates and the unanimous support
of the Democracy VIII insure success.
This was unanimously adopted, after
which the CON niittee adjourned. L
