mania and Island were the counties un-
represented. A total of 154 delegates
were present.
spirited fight was waged for two
hours over the adoption of the plank
reading:
LAS the question Of financial legis-
lation is the overshadowing question at
issue, we hereby reaffirm our demands
for a currency safe, sound and fieXi-
BILE. issued by the general government
without the Intervention Of national
banks or other private corporations,
and that said currency shall consist
of gold, silver or paper and that all
money so issued shall be full legal
tender and be based upon the govern
ments promise to receive and not upon
its promise to redeem in coin"
The minority. which characterized
this plank as a movement toward fu-
sion on the silver issue, was finally
fought down and the plank adopted by
large majority.
The balance of the platform declares
for the free coinage Of silver at 16 to
1; reaffirms devotion to the cardinal
principles of the Omaha platform
touching the questions of finance and
transportation,
A resolution congratulating Senator
Teller and his associates was supported
by many speakers, but voted down af-
ter lively debate. Sixteen nomina-
tions for delegates to St. Louis were
