The ravel dropped 10 minutes - before 1 o'clock on a hall that had a doaan rows of empty seats at the edges farthest from the platform. The appearance of Chairman Harrity, as he stepped for ward to the desk attired in a t fate col ored summer suit, provoked a round of anrjlause from the Taxaa HAlrattrn m. iu forced by many of the southern white metal men. When Mr. Harrity commanded the convention to be in order, his voioe easily carried over the tumult to the farthest corner, testing the accoustio ?;ualities of the hall with most satis actory results. The figure of the chair man faced the assemblage for several minutes, while the ushers swept the Aisles clear of knots of conferring dele gates. "Gentlemen of the convention, all rise for the prayer," the chairman said, and there was a clatter of chairs as the body in the center of the hall came np to its feet with a considerable concus sion. The chaplain. Rev. Dr. Edward Btires. stepped forward and prayed. . Bill Aaaeaaeed Far Temporary Ckalraaaa. After the prayer. Oh airman Harrity stepped forward, and after a sharp rap of the gavel, gave the announcement of the selection of David B. Hill as tempo rary chairman. - Secretary Sheerin of Indian!, for sec retary, and John Martin, for sergeant-at-arms. were also announced when the convention had quieted down. . "What is the pleasure of the conven tion?" asked Mr. Harrity, calmly. Mr. Clayton of Alabama then pre sented the minority report of the na tional committee, nominating Senator Daniel of Virginia for temporary chair man. It is as follows: -To The Democratic National Convention: The undersigned members of the na tional committee respectfully reoommend that the name of the Hon. John W. Daniel of Virginia be substituted in the commit tee report for that of David B. Hill of NV . -a -a -ww -r a tr S-v .

After the prayer. Senator Daniel an nounced that the next business of the day would be the reports of the com mittees. Chairman Atwood of K anaaa nf tfin credentials committee then the report It found the temporary roll correct, save in Michigan and Nebraska. as recommenaed the seating of the Nebraska delegation headed hv J W Bryan. The announcement wm m. ceived with cheers. Th asked further time to decide the Michi gan contest. T. J. Mahoney, one of the gold dele gates from Nebraska, made a brief speech of protest He and his colleagues, he said, well understood that they were to be thrown out and at the head of the delegation they marched out The re port or the committee was adopted by a viva voce vote. Ex-Governor Russell of Massachusetts at first demanded a rollcall. but subse quently withdrew it After a roll of some minntM Mr Marston of Louisiana moved that Sen ator Ben Tillman of South, Carolina be requested to address the Convection. No one heard the motion on account of the bustle. ' ' After JO minutes the chairman an nounced that the convention was in re cess until S o'clock. When the convention reassembled the committee on credentials presented its oomDleted report, admitting to seats the contesting delegates from the Fourth Ninth congressional districts of Michigan and recogniaing the right to their- seats of all the other delegates from Michigan. The chairman put the question on the majority report of the committee on credentials and declared it adopted. The report of the committee on ner- manent organization was then presented by Mr. Finley of Ohio, uamirg Senator him to be." A round ot applause trom the pit greeted this announcement but It was drowned in the storm of hisses from the galleries, which was tooreased to a perfect whirlwind of sibilant sounds as he added: "I came trom a state which was the home of secession." Seoession." he continued, while the galleries hissed, brought about the war, the war which emancipated the negro. The storm of hisses issued forth again when he repudiated the denial that this was a sectional contest "I say it is a sectional issue," he cried, "and It will prevail." Senator Tillman concluded by pledg ing the solid vote of South Carolina to auy good straight silver candidate. As he descended from the stage the delegates set ud a ereat shout for Hill- But suddenly the commanding flsrure of Senator Jones of Arkansas, chairman of the resolutions committee, mounted the ataa Senator Joeee 11 akee a Speeeh. He held his hand out for silence. Tho noise feU away before his strong pres ence. In dear tones' he apologised for appearing before Senator Hill. He had not Intended to say a word, he said, but he could not allow the charge of Mr Tillman that this was a sectional issue to pass unchallenged. "I am a southern man." continued Senator Jones. "I carried a musket during the war. I repudiate the sug gestion that this question knows any section." Flying flogs, hats and hand kerchiefs and the approving rear of 15,- 000 throats answered. The New York. Massachusetts and other eastern delega tions joined heartily in this rejection of the extreme Tillman sentiment After this emphatic repudiation of Mr. Tillman's assertion. Senator Jones left the platform. OtsUm to Senator Bill. Senator Hill ascended the platform amid a perfect storm of applause. He shook the hand of the presiding officer, and then, with a smile, bowed his ac knowledgment to tho shouting, gestic ulating crowd. Men on their chairs waiving handkerchiefs, flogs and toss ing hats in the air. The first volume of applause would no sooner die away than it would again be taken up and cheered and re-echoed through the building. "I believe. declared Senator Hill, "that the course for us to take is to de clare for international bimetallism and stop there."

The crowds were moving towards-the Coliseum early in the day, as the time of meeting was 10 o'clook, and ths experience of the previous day warned the people that time and patience were required In gaining admission. . , . At exactly 10:50 Senator Daniel rapped for order. The minions of the sergeant- at-armshad some difficulty in clearing the aisles.

He adjusted a pair of goldbowed spectacles and began to read the financial plank of the platfqrm. which Colonel Charles IL Jones, the St Louis journalist bad written. , The report of .the minority was read by J. H. Wade of Ohio, a former read ing clerk of the house of representa tives. The gold people rose and cheered. but after the outbreak of Wednesday, these forces were faint ; Senator Ben Tillman of South Caro lina mounted the stage to open the great debate in behalf -of free coinage.. He introduced himself to them- by aaving that he came before them not as wths lying newspapers had represeted Bryan of Kebrstks Momlnated President on the Fifth. Ballet. ' Chicago, July 10, The docks were cleared for the balloting which began when the Democratic national conven tion reassembled at 11 o'clock. The real struggle opened with the delegates wrought to an intense pitch over the sensational developments of Thursday night when, after the platform had been adopted, the Bryan wave swept through the convention and threatened for a time to stampede it then and there. It had disturbed all calculations and had thrown the ranks of other candidates Into confusion. If the convention had not been compelled to adjourn at mid night on account of the electric lights giving out, the eloquent young Nebras kan would have undoubtedly been nom lnated for -president Bryan's great speech, favoring the adoption of the platform as submitted by the majority of the committee on resolutions, turned an overwhelming tide in his favor, and. as before stated, had the vote been taken Thursday evening, -he would have won easily.. - Chairman White, who had recovered his voice, stepped to the front of the stage. Running his eye for a couple of seconds over acres of people, he glanced down at the delegations In the pit and with a heavy whack of the gavel called tne convention so oruer. The chairman then announced that the first business was the call of states for nominations. Thereupon Mr. Har rity of Pennsylvania, -the chairman of the national committee mounted his chair and placed in nomination ex-Governor Robert T. Pattison. Delegate Miller of Oregon added to the list of nominations the name of Syl vester Pennoyer of Oregon. The names of Bland. Bryan. Blackburn. Boles. Matthews, McLean, Pattison and Penn oyer were before the convention. There was no other nominations, and Chairman White announced that the rollcall of the states for the nomination of president would proceed. A rustle of excitement swept over the hall, suc ceeded by an intently eager quiet Then Alabama was called and the chairman said that five of her delegates being gold standard men desired to vote for that "splendid type of the New England Democracy, William E. Rus sell of Massachusetts, but under the rules he cast their 22 votes for Horace Boies." The announcement brought out a banner bearing the likeness of her governor, from the Iowa section and cheer after cheer greeted it The 16 votes of Arkansas, announced for Bland by Senator Berry, gave the supporters of "the great commoner," as he designated him, opportunity, to yell. which they improved. California's vote was much scattered, 9 for Blackburn. for Boies, 1 for Campbell, 3 -for Bryan and 3 for - Matthews, and Blackburn's name was given a cheer, while the oth ers failed of recognition. The result as announced by tho read ing clerk was as follows: Bland. 2"23; Bryan. 105; Boies, 88; Matthews, 7; McLean, 54; Pattison, 93; Pennoyer, 10; Blackburn. 83; Campbell. 3; Tillman, 17; Russell. 3; Stevenson. 12; Hill. 1; Tel ler, 8; absent and not voting. 183.

The program for the fifth day of the Democratic national convention included ths nominating speeches, the balloting for vice presi dent, the naming of the notification committees, the assembling of the na tional committee and probably the elec tion of a chairman to conduct the cam pain. As the hands of the clock pointed to 11 o'clock Chairman White called ths convention to order. There were only about 4.000 people in the Coliseum. More than half the gold delegates were present Contrary to the usual custom, the proceedings were opened without prayer. A few routine recommenda tions were made before the names of the vice presidential candidates were presented. Nominations for the vios presidency were then called for after a motion offered by Senator Jones of Ar kansas had been adapted limiting nomi nating speeches to five minutes each.

BOJU A Rlegiaf DStUrsUM For tho Free Cole g-e of SUeeo Sjnipelhy Fpv Coho, Kee. PREAMBLE We, the Democrats ot the United States, in national conven tion assembled, do reaffirm our allegi ance to the essential principles of jostles and liberty uposi which our institutions are founded, aoft which the Democratic party has advocated from Jefferson's time to oar own freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of con science, the preservation of personal rights, the equality of all citizens before the law, and ths faithful observance of the coostitutianal limitations. During all these years the Democratic party has resulted the tendency of selfish interests to ths centralization of government power, and steadfastly maintained ths integrity of the dual scheme of govern ment established by the founders of this republic of republics. Under Its guid ance and teachings the great principle of local self government has found its best expression in the maintenancs of rights of the states and Its assertion of ths necessity of couflnlng ths general government to the exercise of ths pow ers granted by the constitution ot the United States. The constitution of ths United States guarantees to every citi ten the rights of civil and religious lib erty. The Democratic party has always been the exponent ot political liberty and religious freedom, and it renews Its obligations and reaffirms its devotion to these fundamental principles ot the con stitution. MONEY QUESTION Recognising that the money question is paramount to all others at this time, we Invite at tention to the fact that the federal con stitution names silver and gold together as the money metals of the United States, and that the first coinage law passed by congress under ths constitution mads the silver dollar the monetary unit and admitted gold to free coinage at a ratio based upon the silver dollar nnlt We declare that the act or 1873, de monetizing silver without the knowledge or the approval of ths American people, has resulted In ths appreciation of gold and a corresponding fall in the prices ot commodities produced by the people; a heavy increase in the burden of taxation and of all debts, public and private; the enrichment of the money-lending class at home and abroad; the prostration of industry and impoverishment of the people. AGAINST GOLD STANDARD Ws are unalterably opposed to monomet allism, which has locked fast the pros perity of an industrial people In ths paralysis of bard times. Uold mono metallism is a British policy, and Its adoption has brought other nations into financial servitude to London. It Is not only un-American but ant I-American,- and It can be fastened on ths United States ouly by the stiffing of that spirit and love ot liberty which proclaimed our political lndpeadenoe In 1776 and won it la ths war ot the rev- olotion. FREE COINAGE DEMANDED We demand ths free and unlimited eoiaags of both silver and gold at ths pre sent legal ratio ot 16 to 1. without waltlac for the aid or consent of any other na tion. Ws demand that the standard ail ver dollar shall be a fall legal tender, equally with gold, for all debts. pabUo and private, and we favor such litiga tion as will prevent tor ths f stars the) demonetization, of any kind of legal ten der money by private contract Ws are opposed to ths policy and practice ot surrendering to ths holders of the obligations of the) United States ths option reserved by ths law to ths government ot redeeming snch obliga tions In either silver coin or gold coin. AGAINST BOND ISSUES Ws are opposed to ths Issuing ot Interest bear ing bonds of ths United BtaAee la ttwtm f peac and onrwWmn ths traficklavf with banking syndicates which. La ax change for bonds and at an snormons profit to themselves, supply ths federal treasury with gold to maintain ths pol icy of gold monometallism. Congress alone has ths power to ooia and issue money, and President Jackson declared that this power ooold not be delegated to corporations or Individ aals. Ws, therefore, denounce ths Lssaaaos ot notes Intended to circulate as monvy by national banks as la derogation ot the constitution; and ws demand that all paper which is mads a legal tender for public and private debts, or which is receivable for duS to ths United States shall be issued by ths govern ment of ths United States and shall bs redeemable in coin. A REVENUE TARLTF Ws bold that tariff duties should be levied for purposes ot revenue, snch duties to bs so adjusted as to operate equally through out the country and not discriminate be tween class or section, and that tsistloo should be limited by ths needs ot ths government, honestly and scooomioally administered. Ws denounce as disturb ing to business ths Republican threat to restore ths McKlnley law. which has twice been condemned by ths people La national elections, and which, enacted under ths false plea ot protection to boms Industrie, proved a prolifio breeder of trusts and monopolies, enriched ths few at the expense of ths many, restricted trade and deprived ths producers ot ths great American staples ot acoess to their natural markets. Until ths money question Is settled, we are opposed to any agitation for fur ther changes m our tariff laws, except such as are necessary to meet ths deficit in revenue caused by ths adverse de cision of the supreme court on ths In come tax, But for this decision by ths supreme court, there would bs bo deficit in ths revenue under ths law psrsed by a Democratic coogreaa In strict pursu ance of uniform decisions of that court for nearly 100 years, that court having In that decision sua tain ed constitutional objections to" Its enactment which bad previously been overruled by ths ablest judges who have ever sat on that bench. Ws declare that It is ths doty of con gress) to use all ths oonsbtational power which remains after that derision or which may come from it reversal by ths court as It may hereafter bs consti tuted, so that ths burden of taxation may bs equally and Impartially laid, to ths end that wealth may bear iu do proportion ot ths expenses of ths gov ernment KEEP OUT PAUPERS Ws bold that ths most .efficient way ct pro tecting American labor Is to prevent ths importation ot foreign pauper la bor to compete with It la ths horns market and that ths value of ths horn market to our American farmers and artisans Is greatly reduced by a vicious monetary system which depreaae ths prices ot their products below ths cost ot prod action and thus deprives them of ths means ot purchasing ths prod act of our horns manufactories, and as 'abor creates ths wealth ot the) country, ws demand ths passags of snch law as may b necessary to protect It la all Us rights. Ws are In favor ot arbitration ot dif ferences between employers engagad la Interstate com mere and thsir employe and recommend such legislation as Is necessary to carry out this priori pis. Ths absorption of wealth by th few, the consolidation of oar leading railroad systems and ths formation of trust and pools require a stricter control by th federal government of the artorte ot commerce. Ws demand U enlarge ment ot th powers ot ths la Usr tat commerce commissi on aad snch restric tions and guarantees la ths control ot railroads as will protect ths psopls front robbery and crpresjion. REPUBLICAN WASTE Ws de nounce ths profligate wast ot money wrung from th peopl by oppnlr taxation and tbs lavish appreciations of recent Republican comrsiis, which hav kept taxe high, while th labor that pays them Is unemployed aad ths products ot ths people's toil ar de pressed In price till lhy no locgcr repay the cost of production. Ws demand a return to thai simplic ity and economy which befit a Deaso cratte government aad a redaction La the number of useless office, th sala ries ot which drain ths substance ot ths people. FEDERAL INTERFERENCE Ws denounce arbitrary interference by fed eral authorities in local affairs as a vio lation of th constitution of lb United State and a crims against fro Insula tions, and w especially object to gov ernment by Injunction as a new and highly dangerous form ot opprlasi by which federal Judges, la oootompt ot ths laws of ths state aad rights ot citi sens, become at one legislators, Jodges and executioners, and we. approve th bill paeeed at th last evasion of tb United State senate aad now pedlag In ths house ot representative, relative to contempts la federal courts, aad pro viding trials by Jury la eertala ess as of contempt. No discrimination should bs Indulged by ths government ot ths United State in favor of It debtors. We Approve ths refusal of th Fifty third congress to pass th Pacific rail road funding bill and deaoanos ths efforts of ths present RepabUoaa con gress to enact a si mil sr measure.

To be told you are oo gentleman gives mortal oSeote and ii an swered by a blow or a challenge to deadly combat, it may be. Aad vet, are we all gentlemen? Let ot see what consulates a gentleman. It is to have good manners. But what are good manners? Why to be polite and con rt eons in onrde mesoor, sod especially towards those of the gentler sex. Tis said that all the world loves a lover, aod every novelist, from Sir Philip Sidney to Walter Scott, has striven to paint his heroes as perfect gentlemen. To chivalry we are Indebted for the highest theo known type of gentlemen in the gallant knight. Bat a true knight was bound by his vow to be not only brave and polite, but the soul of honor aod sincerity. Theo some one may ask, "Should a gentleman be so insincere as to show courtesy or kindness to the rude and impolite!? Yes, for his own sake as well as for theirs Because there is a law of oar na ture that makes us become like our maoners aod makes os love those to whom we show love, aad hate those whom we have iojared. But this is a very practical age, aod the first question asked when a new course of actioa is proposed is, "Does it psyT Does it pay then ia dollars and cents to have rood nuam? Ave verily. For the cost of it, it is the DON'T STOP TOBACCO. " s as v v a V e em w as Bi a caa make, especially is this true io the profession of law aod mediciee aad ia mercantile life. Of course a youog man mast have io his character the founda tion stones of truthfulness, hooesty aod industry. Bat let him be ever so hooest, truthful and iadas trious, yet if he be rude aad impo lite, farewell to his prospects of success ia asy cf the callings wbeo he is brought ia close contact with bis (ellowmen. We once knew a country mer chant who had a good business, when there was oo competition, whose trade all left him as soon as a polite competitor came ioto the neighborhood. If good manners then are so valuable, how caa they be acquired? Is it ooly those who have a long traioiog, from associa tion, ia the best society who caa be said to have good manners? Unquestionably this is a great advantage ia giving ease aad grace of manners- But true polite oess is not oooopoliied by aoy station ia life aod is withia the reach of alL Morality aod picy make true politeness because from the heart. Let every ooe, espe cially the young, strive to cultivate an obliging disposition by omit tiog bo opportunity todoaklod or uoselfish act, aod he will soon nod his reward. Emerson says ''A beautiful form Is belter than a beautiful face ; a beautiful behavior is better than a beautiful form it gives higher pleasure than statues or pictures ; it is the finest of the 6oe arts."
