We herewith publish the speech Of
Hon. Robert Grain, CT airmau Of the
Committee for 1912, orsaaized for the
purpose of bringing the Democratic Con
gention to Baltimore in 1912, delivered
At meeting Of the fl ,auce committee
held at the Merchants and Manufac-
turers rooms last week
Mr.. Grain had determined beforehand
that the best way to arouse enthusiasm
was to lay the facts before the audience
as graphically az possible. He did so.
''As business mer,'' he began, Il under
stand tat you have engagements, and
tha you are here on business, aud not
/ to hear speeches. If the citizens of the
city Of Baltimore want the Democratic
national convention here in 1912 they
have more than fair chance to get it.
But l must be entirely frank. II they
want that convention they must put up
the money, and put it up quickly, or
they won't have that chance, and it will
go elsewhere. Lam not in the position
of the ordinary street seeker after aims,
but regard myself here as the agent
OF the citizens who want that conyen-
ton to come to Baltimore, and / am
ready to receive subscriptions in their
behalf. There are certain prerequisites
which must be complied with before
you can get the convention but there
are even some which you must comply
with before you go to the national COM
mittee and ask for it. The procedure
in this thing is very simple. We are to
&c before the committee in the first
part of December and ask for the con-
vention, and to back mp our request
we must show them a certified check
for 500, 900, which they demand before
they will give consideration to any city
Baltimore, you know, is not the only
city that wants the convention. The
cities of the West and Northwest are
looking for conventions every day in
tine week. We are in the East, and,

the advantages which would accrue BY
bringing the convention mere. "Don''
