10 The next nation.. convention.
II. u. Marshall. OF Dayton. spoke after
wards for harmony. and a rol-call was
demanded on the adoption OF the minority
report. -
The vote was "A defeat for the free-silver
men-27o 10 SO.
When the silver issue was out Of the
way General r.. Il. Fin'ay. OF Bucyrus,
created diversion by submitting another
p'ank 10 the platform. viewing with alarm
the armed invasion by Great Britain Of \
friendly country. and insisting upon the
enforcement Of the Monroe doctrine.
The Chair ruled that the resolution could
not be considered. and in different forms
this decision was challenged IA all parts

that Grover Cleveland would enforce it,
President ingalls,, Of the Biz Four rail-
way. warned the convention against tack
ing pianks - a reguhrly-prepared plat
form. but Ex-Governor Campbell In a few
vigorous remarks carried the convention
with him. he asked his hearers II they

The resolution was simply intended 10
notify the incoming Congress that the
people demanded legislation that would
drive Great Britain out of Venezuela. ana
that they were not prepared 10 lie down
and allow the British lion TO put its
paws on them.
The resolution was then put aad car

should clectrify the whole county.
AZ this point the Ex-Governor gave
ex-State-Chairman Norton. OF Tiiiln, per
