The Minnesota Republicans are a s,al-
wart body and their platform rings
with earnestness. The declarations On
the money question leave no dQlb. Of
the attitude OF the party in that state.
1t almost appears az il the example Of
Oregon had been productive OF good re-
suits in Minnesota. There il very
strong similarity between the language
OF the money pianks In the Minnesota
and in the Oregon platforms, and 1t In
as near being decisive and uncompro-
missing az words can make IL.
There is no wavering or uncertainty
about the declaration: I'VE believe the
national honor and interest Of tie Amer
.can people depend on the maintenance
Of the pressn, gold standard We de-
clare our unaIterabie opposition to the
free coinage OF silver and to ali schemes
looking to the population and debase-
ment Of our money and the reputation
Of debts"
The platform Is no less emphatic On
the subject Of the war. 1t commeuds
the administration for its course in
prosecuting the war. but expresses q
hope that the war may be brought to
an early determination.
The annexation Of the Hawaiian
islands is advocated az the fruition OF

isfactory. There was very little feel
ing manifested in the other contests,
and the ticket was selected with free
dom and with unanimity after the first
tnal of strength on the par. OF candi-
dates.
The convention took a very unusual
and not altogether convenient course In
passing resolutions favorable to the
candidacy OF any one person for United
States senator. There are. however.
very exceptional conditions surround
Ing Hon. Cushman X. Davis. He has
occupied an unusual position in ma
tional politics and from force OF cir
cumstances Is absolutely without any
competitor.
Unless delegates to a state convention

been instructed by the people, 1t Is an
unwarranted assumption OF authority.
