CHAIRMAN DAY PLANS
STRENUOUS WEEK.
Congressman Lind. S. M. Owen
and Other Speakers to Take
the Stump

While John A. Johnson and +. G.
Winston have created a great wave of
enthusiasm for themselves and the
others on the Democratic state ticket
in Southern Minnesota during the past
ten days, they will divide attention
with number of the strongest Demo-
cratic leaders in the state within few
days.
A hard campaign has been mapped
out by the Democratic executive COM
mittee for Mr.. Johnson and Mr.. Win
ston for next week. They will spend
the week in Southwestern Minnesota
counties. Beginning Monday night at
St. James, they speak at Sherburne
Tuesday afternoon and at Jackson
Tuesday evening. Wednesday after
noon they speak at Worthington and
in the evening of that day at Lu
verne Marshall will be visited Thurs
day afternoon and Tracy the evening
of Thursday Three speeches will mark
Friday. A forenoon meeting will be
held at Hendricks, an afternoon meet
ing at Tyler and an evening meeting
at Candy. Clarkfeld, Dawson and
Madison Lac qui Parle county, will be
the programme for Saturday, meetings
noon, afternoon and evening.
Lind to Take Stump
Congressman John Lind will begin
his work in the state for the state ticket
in the First ward, St. Paul, on Mon
day evening, Oct. II. He will speak
each night, with an occasional after
noon meeting, for two weeks, and it is
expected that he will go into the Red
river valley country and through
Northern Minnesota. But few Of the
points where he will speak have been
definitely announced.
AS result of visit to Minneapolis
yesterday by Chairman Frank A. Day,
of the state central committee, it was
announced last night that S. M. Owen,
the former candidate for governor,
would make four speeches for Johnson
and Winston at points to be designated
by the state committee.
Mr.. Owen is supporting the Populist
national ticket, but as his party organ
ization has no state ticket In Mime
sofa, he will support the Democratic
state ticket, believing that its men and
its platform are relatively better than
the Republicans can offer.
T. ]. McDermott, candidate on the
ticket for attorney general, has already
done effective work on the stump for
his party in the campaign, and he will
continue until the end of the campaign.
D. w. Lawler, the brilliant st. Paul
orator; E.. c. Stringer and Thomas r.
Kane, county attorney of Ramsey
county, will be among those who will
spend some time on the stump for the
Democratic candidates and principles.
With the limited means at its COM
mand and with no help from the ma
tional committee the Minnesota DEM
ocratic committee will make the best
fight possible.

He had associated with him men who
have been his most loyal supporters.
There was no opposition to the adop-
ton of the platform as read, although
one delegate attempted to secure the
adoption of an additional plank
pledging Nebraska Democracy to sup
port of the nominees of the St. Louis
convention regardless of whom they
might be. He was ruled out of order,
however, after reading his resolution.
There were but handful of dele
gates who had not been pledged to the
support of a re-affirmation of the
Kansas City platform and they came
from Lancaster, Mr.. Bryan's own
county. They did not, however, at
tempt to secure recognition and Mr..
Bryan sat with the Lancaster dele
CATION while he was on the floor Of the

livered. among them being addresses
by Mr.. Bryan in support Of the plat
