WAS UNANIMOUSLY CHOSEN A Ringing Platform Adopted on Which A Vigorous Campaign Will Be Made—Strong Ticket Nomi- nated Throughout. ‘The most harmonious and yet the most enthusinstic state convention ever held in Minnesota took placé;in Minneapolis on Wednesday of this week, when Leonard A. Rosing, of Cannon Falls, was unanimously nomi- nated for governor by a united Democ- racy. The letter of John Lind ap- pearing, as it did, at the eleventh hour, in which he unequivocally re- fused to accept the nomination, had a tendency to create some confusiol at the outset, but as the delegates from tbe country districts began to assemble the political atmosphere soon Cleared and lung before the con- vening of the convention, at 12 o'clock Wednesday noon it was apparent that Rosing was the choice of nine-tenths of the representatives present. The following ticket was nominated by acclamation: For Governor— L, A. ROSING, Cannon Falls. For Lieat. Governor— ROBT, A, SMITH, St. Paul. For Secretary of State— SPURGEON ODELL, Marshall. For Auditor— ALBERT G. LIECH, Owatonna. For Atty. Gen.— YRANK D. LARRABEE, Minneapolis. For Treasurer— JOS. L. MYERS, Little Falls, For Supreme Court Clerk— Gr0. E. JONES, Luverne. For Ry, Commissioner— , M, BOWLER, Minneapolis. The platform, which follows, is the clearest, most forceful and just de- fore organization in the. state of Mi sota: THE PLATFORM. 1. We declare our allegiance to the principles of Democracy. as set forth in our national declaration of inde- pendence. as especially taught by that great exponent of Democracy, Thomas Jefferson, and as reaffirmed ia the latest national convention of the Democratic party. 2. We further express our admir- ation for and greatful appreciation of the great ability, singular disinterest- edness and untiring zeal in the service of humanity of that great leader of the Democracy and most fearless and eloquent champion of the rights of man, William J. Bryan. 3. We congratulate the people of the United States that their latent democratic spirit and sense of fair- ness have been sufficiently aroused tu compel the present administration to so far keep faith, howe¥er reluctant- ly, with the people of Cuba as to withdraw ' our troops from their island and allow them a measure of self-government, and we condemo the Republican party for its failure to fully comply with the congres- sional resolution passed before: the declaration of war with Spain. It is with deepest shame and regret that through the apostacy of the Republi- can party the people of the United States are, by our imperialistic policy in the Philippines, placed before the world in the false position of repudia- ting the most cherished fundamental principles of our government, and our brave citizen soldiers are forced to disgrace our flag and army in obedi- ence to orders from their superiors. We indorse and commend our Dem- ocratic congressmen for the position taken by them on the Philippine question, and demand that our government declare its intentions and purposes in regard to the Filipino people and grant to them their inde- pendence. 4, The power of the modern trusts is an appaling evil and a monstrous menace. We would revoke the tariff benefits they enjoy; we would refuse the subsidy they seek; we would pass’ appropriate legislation for the control of their affairs and to secufe publicity, and we would enforce the laws against them, sparing none. 5. The Republican party openly advocates the policy of class legisla- tion, conferring special privileges, benetits, subsidies. bounties, tariffs. Excessive riches and abject poverty that corrupt and debase character are results of the seme social disease— i “Merger of competing MINNESOTA’ HISTORICAL Min SOOkTYpciet Two Do.Liars A YEAR. Special privilege. cation of the Democratic principles of equal’ rights to all and special privileges to none is the only remedy for existing inequalities and wrongs. 6. We deplore the existence of a spirit of lawlessness which finds ex- pression even in murderous attacks upon the chief magistrate of the re- public, and has brought about the death of a recent incumbent of that exalted office. 7. We favor the postal savings bank and the income tax; we oppose government by injunction. 8. We would correct the imbecile and unbnsinesslike policy that throt- tles our trade with Canada and Cuba at the behest of special interest. 9. We take this opportunity to pay heartfelt tribute to that statesman and popular leader, the heroic standard bearer uf our cause during three hard-fought campaigns, John Lind. His place in the Northwest and in the hearts of the people of all classes is secure, and the impress of his character upon the political life of this state will endure for all time, His term as. governor will be known in the history of our commonwealth as that in which every executive de- partment—railroad and warehouse commission, public examiner, labor commission, insurance commission, dairy and food commission, adjutant general, superintendent of public in- struction, boards of equalization and grain inspection—was brought to the highest standard of efficiency and in every respect represented the people. It will be known as the administra- which reduced the state tax levy, while securing a large increase of revenue from tax-dodging corpor- ations; that cut down the freight bill of Minnesota farmers $400,000 per annum by reducing railway rates on grain; that reduced both the state cost and trust price of binding twine; that raised the standard of Minnesota wheat through just and efficient in- spection an average of one grade on the entire crop; that ordered a 25 per cent reduction in railroad rates on iron ore and for the first time in years exacted of corporate power in Minnesota the same obedience to public laws as is required of the humblest citizen. : We pledge a continuance of this enlightened Filicy, efficient admin- istration and fidelity to the poems when the candidates of the Demo- cratic party are again summoned to serve the state. 10. The state’s law of forbidding -failroads. shoul be enforced, and that in every case} and the state’s neglected power tu regulate rates should be exercised as the prime remedy for discrimination and extortion. ll. The'readjustment of our tax}| laws is an absolute necessity with which the present administration has ; proved its incompetescy to deal. 12. We adopt the clear, intelligent program submitted by the Demo- cratic minority in the late session; the taxation of non-resident corpor- ations equally with domestic; the adequate taxation of public service corporations and the taxation of in- come and we favor the amendment of the constitution to that end. We favor the municipal ownership of public-service corporations, the principle of direct legislation and home rule in local taxation. 1i. We believe that the interests of labor can best be conserved by organization, and we demand for every man who labors an equal use of all natural opportunities, to the end that no man shall take the proceeds of another’s labor without full com- pensation therefor. . We are in favor of the observance of a general eight-hour workday, and and that all printing done for and supplies purchased by the state of Minnesota shall bear the union label And we emphatic- ally reaflirm our belief that the appli- fw —_a NF Is a slang expression, meaning “up to the limit,” another slang phrase whose meaning is much the same as “the real thing.” This definition may not be pre- cisely luminous. Do you want to know more on the subject? If so consult the book on Slang, now in preparation by a Columbian professor, or better still use Chase & Sanborn’s Seal Brand Coffee and you will know at once the meaning of ‘the real thing.” The real thing in coffee is the kind that produces a deep port wine color before cream and a rich golden after cream—only real coffee will do this. Chase & Sanborn’s high grade coffees which are delivered to you in richly colorea parchment lined bags are the best that money can buy. The manner in which they are Toasted and made ready for the con- sumer is nothing short of scientific. Any one who once uses Chase & Sanborn’s Coffees can -never after be persuaded to buy anything but “the real thing.” Chase & Sanbomn’s Coffees.

We recommend to the voters the adoption cf the proposed law, whose submission tu the people was secured by the persistent efforts of the Lind admihistration, for the in- crease of the railroad gross earnings tax. 16. We favor the election of United States senators by direct vote of the people and the election to the senate only of men pledged to that reform. 17. We condemn the failure of the present state administration to enforce tbe law against the merger of the Iron Range railroads. We condemn the surrender of the state railroad. and warehouse com- mission to United States Steel trust in giving up the state’s jurisdiction over. railruads wholly within its borders and adandoning the just rates ordered by the preceding commission, to the prejudice of the state's interest in the school lands. 18.
