]. c. Michael was complimenting the con-
vention on its ticket and platform when a
shout at thead door announced that Mr.. Cullen
| had arrived The notification committee forced
a passage through the crowd for him. while
every one who was seated rose up and Joined
In a greeting, which continued until the can
! didate was presented by the chairman. Never
was presepted a greater contrast than the
shouting reception given Cullen and the hard
ly disguised indifference with which Mr.. Doran
was received on Saturday. Again and again
was the applausesrenewed as Mr.. Cullen faced
the convention, and he was pleasurably affect
ed by the undisguised satisfaction everybody
evinced at his appearance.
Chairman McCafferty introduced him hap
PLY, and presented him as the next mayor Of
st. Paul. Mr.. Cullen said the occasion marked
a time in his life when the utterances of the
lips could not speak the sentiments of the
heart The generous expression Of confidence
he had witnessed made him feel that with such
a ticket as had been nominated he could, il
necessary, meet defeat without shame or hu-
initiation. His desire to retire permanently
from political life had long been known to all,
but the convention had demonstrated how lily
he had succeeded in doing so. The platform
he felt was one he could stand on without fear,
for, although he had not read 1t, he had the
fullest confidence in the men who had the
making of it.
For errors and mistakes made during the
fifteen years of my public service 1 can offer
no apology" said Mr.. Cullen, earnestly. my
purpose was always honest. The interests Of
the people are first with me, and the interests
of the Democratic party second. Though 1
have often been candidate before the people,
l have never been defeatd.'
A Delegate-You never will be. (Cheers).
Chairman McCafferty-You are nominated
on Jefferson's birthday. You cannot be de-
feated.
Mr.. Cullen-And If elected this time I
pledge myself to be honest in every act may
be called on to perform.
Again the cheering broke out vociferously,
and continued until Mr. Cullen had taken his
seat and raised his hands deprecatingly.
: Canddate-elect Quincy raised laugh by
saying he had already been asked to use his
influence In behalf Of certain man for license
inspector; but some one else had turned his
mind to wondering If Rev. David Morgan
ought not to have the place, and he had con-
cluded to remain unpledged until the whole
ticket Is elected
Dan Aberle proposed a resolution which out
lines the composition of the city committee
for the ensuing two years, and defines it's
duties. The committee will consist of twenty
three members-one from each ward, selected
