WISCONSIN FOR GOLD.
Democratic State Convention Adopts q
"Sound Money" Platform.

Democratic State Convention Adopts a
'Sound Money" Platform.
MILWAUKEE, June 25.-Free silver
developed unexpected strength in the
Democratic state convention. The gold
standard adherents were supposed to
be overwhelmingly in the majority in
the Wisconsin Democracy, but when
the test vote came on the adoption of
the minority and majority reports from
the committee on resolutions the silver
men were found to number 1873 of the
345 delegates in the convention. The
delegates at large to the national
convention are all gold standard advo-
Gates and are headed by Senator Will
lam F. Villas and General Edward s.
Bragg. The district delegates chosen
by the district delegations include sew.
eral silver men but will be governed
by the unit rule. They have no prefer.
ence for a presidential nominee.
A minority report in favor of free
coinage was offered, but was rejected
1928 to 217. The majority report was
then adopted by the same vote. The
following delegates at large were then
elected: William F. Villas, Madison
Edward s. Bragg, Fond du Lac; James
G. Flanders, Milwaukee; James J.
Hogan, La Crosse.

ARCHBISHOP IRELAND.

P. A. On the very day Colonel Sellers
sent copy Of what he wanted embod-
led in the platform to Mr.. Foraker,
chairman of the committee Oh resolu-
tions, the following telegram was re-
ceived by Chairman Thomas H. Carter
Of the national Republican committee,
from Archbishop Ireland:
ST. PAUL, Mimi, 1895.
To Hon. Thomas H. Carter, National
Committeeman, st. Louis, Mo-.
The clause in the proposed platform op-
posing the use Of public money for secta-
rian purposes and union of church and
state is unnecessary and uncalled for. 1t
is urged by the A. p. A. Its adoption will
be taken as concession to them; will
awaken religious animosity in the country
and do much harm. The Republican party
should not lower itself to recognize,
directly or indirectly, the A. p. A. hope
the clause or anything like it, will not be
adopted.
Signed JOHN IRELAND.
Colonel Sellers, in an interview, said
he gave a copy of the platform Of the
patriotic societies to Mr.. Foraker, and
also to Senator Gear Of Iowa. He was
told by the latter that the paragraph
declaring against the appropriation of
money from the United States treasury
for sectarian purposes, would be in
corporated, and that the committee had
taken favorable action upon it. Later
i'll the day wednesday, he was sur
prised to learn from a member of the
committee that its action had been re-
considered, and that there would be
nothing in the platform in that regard.
All this is now explained by the tele-
gram from the archbishop at st. Paul.
The dispatch was referred by Chairman
Carter to Edward Lauterbach of New
York, one of the big four from that
state, and he,with National Committee
man r. G. Kerens of this city, went
before the committee and succeeded in
knocking out all reference to the church.

THE OHIO CONVENT.

Silver Men Run Things to suit Them
selves.
COLUMBUS, O., June 25.-It was after
10 o'clock when the Democratic state
convention was called to order by
Chairman Nj. A. Smalley. During the
morning members of the committee ON
resolutions were working on the phrase
ology of their one resolution. The
only thing in the platform was the
resolution on silver, and an attachment
for the unit rule involving the silver
ques Son at Chicago There was no
reference to the Republican legislature
or state administration.
The convention was called to order at
10 80 by Chairman Matt Smalley, who
introduced Rev. DR.. Fishburn of Co.
lumbus who invoked divine blessing.
The temporary organization was an
nounced and Colonel w. A. Taylor, the
temporary chairman, read his speech.
Wanted Clevelands Picture Removed.
After Colonel Taylor had finished,
Reuben Turney of Tuscarawas county
was recognized. He threw the conven-
tion into turmoil of Kisses and derisive
shouts by saying:
Looking down upon this convention
is that arch-traitor, that Benedict
Arnold of the Democracy, Grover Cleve-
land"
He wanted the picture removed. For
some moments Mr.. Turney was Kissed
so that he could not proceed.
After the report of the committee on
permanent organization, General A. j.
Warner was escorted to the chair as the
presiding officer, and was received with
an ovation. General Warner was intro
duced as an apostle Of 16 to /. He urged
all to sacrifice personal preferences and
all other matters for the silver issue.
The people had made the issue and
the St. Louis convention had empha-
sized it by adopting single gold stand
ard. The lines We're never SO distinctly
drawn. There was no longer any doubt
about what would be done at Chicago
ON the issue. He urged all the advo-
Gates of the bimetallic standard of the
fathers and of the constitution to unite
on one ticket as well us on one issue.
When General Warner had concluded
his speech the free coinage platform
was presented and adopted by vote of
542 to 1928. The unit rule was also
adopted.
Allan w Thurman, John r. Mclean,
L. E. Holden and E. B. Finley were
elected delegates at large.
