the selection of an assistant secre-
tary and sergeant-at-arms could be
dispensed with, and Senator Daugh-
erty, of Duluth, moved that the eau
Gus proceed to nominations.
Representative Roberts interrupted
Senator Mccarthy, who was about to
commence his nominating speech for
Davis, by inouiring if there were any
absentees. The secretary was directed
to call the roll, and, this formality
having been gone through with, it was

PRESENTED DAVIS NAME.
Senator Mccarthy again took a DO
sition in front of the clerks desk and
proceeded to eloquently place the name
Of Senator Davis before the caucus.
He said:
I rise to voice the sentiment, the hope and
will of 100000 people of the state. The
voice of the people can be heard on the
breeze telling what they want. From the
wind-swept shores of Lake Superior to the
Iowa line there comes to us tonight the voice
Of the people, telling us what and whom they
want. l voice, tonight, the universal desire
expressed, not only in this state alone nor In
the United States alone. From Cuba crushed
and bleeding but to be born again from Porto
Rico and Hawaii and the skies of the Orient
they desire the nomination and election of
Cushman X. Davis. Within these walls to-
night hovers the angel of progress, and If
we but listen we can hear the rustic of Its
wings. We hold in our hands the political
commercial and Industrial future of the state
The state of Minnesota lies within the zone
Of political possibilities. Are We equal to
the hour?
Shall we heed the beckoning? There is a
time in the affairs of state, as in the affairs
of men, which, taken at their flood, leads on
to fortune and to great accomplishments
The guns Of this great republic have already
| marked the road to commercial and indus
trial supremacy, and to us tonight is given
the right to choose the road we shall take
For that opportunity to achieve supremacy
we have to thank Cushman K. Davis He IL
was who first saw the great possibilities for
the people Of this country In the lands of
the Orient. Through his untiring efforts he
has added to the material wealth and pros
perity of the humbest of our citizens and not
one of us but may profit from his labors
More than that, Cushman K. Davis stands for
progress, and it may be said that all the
nations OF the world hang upon our action
here tonight. AS his highest praise it NAV
be ssid that he is an American a splendid
specimen of his native land. 1 see him a.
struggling youth, fighting bravely the battles
of an early life of poverty. I see him later
in youth, taking UP a musket and going
forth to fight the battles of his beloved
land Returning from that conflict, broken in
health, he came to this state in search of
life and vigor and here he has since remained
and has risen to enjoy the highest honors

value of the late Calvin S. Brice's per-

only 100000 in the petition for letters
of administration on file at the surro-
