Southern Minnesota in return for the
support given LangUm for secretary of
state gave Miller very large vote, and

there was q general stampede to get on

Dare had about $50 votes and was re-

may be regarded the result of several
strong speeches made by Oar Reese and

had proceeded sufficiently there was an
other stampede to get in line by every

1T MIGHT HAVE AEEN NoIsIEH.


Such a riotous scene as was enacted
at the Auditorium last evening during
the closing hours of that unruly gath
ering of oficeseekers, large and small,
by courtesy assumed to represent the in
telligence, but apparently rather the
organized greed, of the Republican party,
was not a surprise to close observers
who have mingled with the throng Of
hustlers in the Iobbies of the local ho-
tells during the preliminary capers Of
the week
1t was quite change from the old
time conventions, before the defeat of the
machine two years ago, when the con-
ventions slipped through as though they
were oiled, and which they may have
been, sometimes, by the deft manage
ment of the old leaders. But the alb
sence of Gen. John Goodnow. writing
commercial letters from Shanghai, and
Tams Bixby, directing the affairs of the
Chcctaws from his tepee at Muskogee,
showed that in the absence Of the chief
tains the Republican wheel horses evince
remarkable disposition to forget their
tribal dignity and mix it up among
themselves.
If the nominee for presidential eiector
who was choked on the floor of the
convention by a delegate from the silk
stocking precincts of the capital city
had died during the deliberations of the
body, it would nc doubt have been con-
sidered an unfortunate accident, trivial
in party which honors Taylor, of Ken
lucky, with a place in it's high councils.
St Paul has reason to congratulate it
self that the rural delegate did not die,
lest the party leaders might have
charged his demise to the excitement of
the carnival fire, and brought discredit
on the hospitality of the community,
now in such high favor with the neigh
bors throughout the state.
The distribution of some of the nomi-
nations was so suggestive of a church
fair grab-bag, with several sharp blades
laid bare at the throat of the individ-
ual holding the bag, as to incline one to
the belief that the once much vaunted
Republican machine is splendidly dis
organized.
Those downhearted individuals who
walked bitterly out of the Auditorium
last evening without any plumes in their
reticules can face the lmiling June skies
with brighter greetings when they re-
fleet this morning that full soon the as
sessment committee will be calling on
the victors Of last nights fray, and many
a tidy bank roll viii be disbursed-as
the committee knows best-ere the ides
of November.

FIGHT FOR SECRETARY.
Then the convention went all to pieces
The secretaryship of state was reached
and nominations were in order, and pande-
monium ensued. W. w Calkins of Nor
man county, nominated J. j. Lomen, and
w. II. Grimshaw, of Minneapolis, put in
nomination A. F. Nordin, of WiIlmar
chairman Gray, of the Fillmore county
delegation, presented Sam Langum s

ed in nomination P. ]. Sjoblom. Meeker
county came forward with the name of
P. G.. Hanson, and j. Adam Beede's speech
nominating Swan B. Molander cheered
things up little.
On the first ballot ]. J. Lomen held the
Seventh district well in line, and received
twenty-five votes from the Ramsey dele
cation, more than any other
candidate was able to command.
The banner Republican counties Of the
state, located in Southern Minnesota, par
ticularly the First and Second district,
supported Langum, and he received thir-
teen votes from Ramsey, and the solid
support of st. Louis county, the deal being
that Langum's friends We're to support
Miller for their support of Langum for
secretary of state. But forty-fOur votes
could not do the business, and no decis-
ion was reached on the first ballot Sjob-
lom received very nearly one-half the
votes in Hennepin, but other than this his
support only amounted to few scatter
ing votes here and there. Molander made
a strong showing in the Sixth district.

AS there was no choice a second ballot
was taken. Before the roll was called
Sjoblom withdrew and threw his strength
to Hanson, and NoTdin also Withdrew,
and his support nearly all went to Han
son. Hennepin county clinched the cleo
tion of the Litchfield man by giving him
100 votes. With the votes given Nordin
and SJOblom, and a scattering vote anx-
ious to get on the band wagon. Hanson
had about seventy-five votes to spare.
There was a stampede to Hanson and
the secretary soon ceased keeping track
of the delegations that changed over
to Hanson. The Fillmore county dee
cation moved to make it unanimous, and

PLATFORM A LONG ONE.

Chairman R. G. Evans. of Minneapolis.
of the committee on resolutions, read
the platform after it was prepared. 1t
was warm in the hall and the delegates
were tired out before he commenced the
lOng-winded effusion. At the end of it
there were fewer in the hall by several
hundred than when he commenced. Many
of the delegates thought the platform fell
far short of what was wanted and ex-
pected. They knew it was too long to be
effective, and the audience was not held
in wrapt attention while the eloquent
words" etc. were being pronounced. The
platform in full is given herewith:
Resolved, That the Republicans of the
state of Minnesota, in convention assem-
bfed, hereby indorse and approve the
principles adopted by the recent Repub-
lican national convention held at Phila-
delphia, and we hereby indorse the ad-
ministration of President Mckinley and
congratulate the country on his wise and
patriotic course and point to the revival
of commercial and industrial pursuits as
brought about by the present admins
tratiOn.
We highly approve the denomination of
President Mckinley for reelection to the
high office he has so ably filed, and We
especially rejoice with the nation and

Chairman Young announced that
United States Senator Carter of Mon
tana, was in the hall He was invited TO
take the platform and address the gather

pended business. Senator Carter's ad-
dress was full of politics. He took all
credit to the Republican party for all the
blessings Of the season and congratu-
lated himself over the situation very
Hberally. 1t was only by chance that he
passed through St. Paul and he thought
he would drop off ard see how they did

Capt. Van SAINT came in just as Senator
