WORK OF THE CONVENTION Delegates Begin Promptly and Push Earnestly Ahead Without Any Flourishe (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, June 18.+~(Special.)—~The ap- pearance on the platform of F. C. Lindsay, chairman of the state committee, accom- panied by Norrls Brown of Kearney, who had been selected by the state committee to act as temporary chairman, was the signal for a vigorous round of applause Not a vacant seat could be seen on ‘he main floor of the convention hall. The gallery was well filled with spectators, many of whom were women. The morning rain had cooled the alr and left the Audi- torium comfortable in spite of the im- mense crowd. Mr. Lindsay went almost immediately to the bpeaker's desk and called the assemblage to order, the gavel falling "as the clock indicated 2:80. An- other cheer was given and then the con- vention settledsdown to business. Rev. Mr. Meyer of Humboldt was intro- @Quced by Mr. Lindsay and in a brief prayer asked for blessing upon the convention, upon the acts of public men in public offce, ypon the te, the country and its chief executive. In the absence of John T. Mal- lalieu, secretary of the state committee, who had been called to his home in Kear- mey by iliness in his family, the official call for the convention was made by A. B. Allen of Johnson county, elected by the committee to act as temporary secre- tary. Mr. Brown's Addres In beginning the proceedings Norris Brown spoke for twenty minutes. He was enthusiastically recelved and frequently in- terrupted by applause. Mr. Brown spoke as follows: It is a great honor to preside even tem- porarily over o republican convention in a Fepublican state in a republican year. It is humiliating to the good people of Nebraska to _remember now that in 1806 they pub- lshed to the world their temporary inca- pacity for self-government, and yet there was some excuse for that mistake; we were In great pain that year; we had been suffering since 158 the joys of unparalleled democratic prosperity of the free trade brand, The happiness which that industrial remedy brought and which was vouched for at the time by the once peerless leader was too paintul to be joyful. So it hap- pened that Nebraska's yote went to a cause that was lost, to a ticket that was deteated and to & patty that Is now strand, ed on the rocks of fusion and the sands of reorganization.

Here it {s: The legisiature to appropriate as much 03~ sible, to be expended as soon as possible, in_ofder ;that the deficlency may be as large as possible. Let us look at the record a moment. The legislature of 1899 met the demands of these honest econo- mizers with liberal appropriations, and yet three months before the biennium had ended the money had all been spent and a deficiency created. By the time the repub- lcan legislature met in 1901 it was com- rll i to lpJnroleu money to pay the lebts’ created by the pecullar methods of these . self-advertised ‘masters of finance and economy. the total deficiency amount- ing to $140,11206. But that was not all. In dition It was necessary to appropriate money to pay miscellaneous debts created that administration in the sum of ,623.92, - 80 that the grand fotal of ex- penditurés ln excess of the appropriation was $I52.735. Such are the d‘menllon. of the gold brick handed to the people by our fucion reformers. Is it any wonder that our delivérance came in 1900, when the opposition with Its untulfilled promises and its’ broken platforms were repudiated by a sensible and patriotic people? Binee that year the state has remained republican and its affairs managed on the basis of a wery different kind of economy. Its oMocers have limited thelr salaries to the amounts fixed in the constitution and the tota] ex- penditures have not only been kept within he total appropriations, but there stood 4t the and of the first year to the credit the r“"b state administration the sum of $§7.381.81. The difference, therefore, Between the two kinds of cconomy, repub: and fusion, reaches the significant sum of 5269 967.58, Republicans, one of the material issues of this campalign Is, Shall the state and Its taxpayers be again turned over to the tender mercles of deficlency bullders, salary purlpiners and interest collectors?

The Phillppine Is1ands are ours: they must remain ours and their people be given those blessings of edueation and liberty that fali from the folds of the American flag. The far eastern belongings of this country must be clvilized if it takes the nation and the republican party the reat of the century to do it. Labor is em- ployed as never before in its history; it jmust be kept employed. The nation's commerce exceeds by millions all former records; It must be expanded still more, even if it requires the bullding of both canals instead of one across the isthmus. A shorter water route to Asia and Europe is Indispensable to the American merchant, the future master of the trade of thé world. Labor and Capital. The interests of labor and capital must have the m\u»fl protection of the law. Labor has the rlght to organize and combine for peaceful and lawful purposes; capital has tha right to co-operate and congre- ate 8o long as its purpose is peaceful and awful. But neither has any right to tram- ple on the rights of the public by the use of violence, or by limitin roduction, or h}' controlling the prices of the necessaries of lite, or, by stifling competition. Buch are the principles of the republican party, and such is the work at hand for it to do. How can these principles be best sub- served and that work best promoted? Let me tell you: go out in the state with your coats off and elect the nominees of this convention; but that is not sufficient, keep your coats off and asa that Nebraska sends to congress six republicans instead of two, This state has violated the constitution long enough by having only two congress- men at Washington. Tell me, what good does it do anybody to have a'pop in con- gress? We have tried them: which one ever earned his mileage, to say nothing about his salary? They never bring an: thing back except garder sceds and a tale of woe and view witn alarm every- thing In sight. 1 will tell you what they do down there; they talk and vote for a war and then refuse to vote ammunition for the soldier. They talk and vote for a treaty of peace and then complain about its logical results, They favored payin twenty millions for the Philippines, an now they want to give them away. They say they iavor trust legislation, but they vote against the consideration of a trust amendment to the constitution. The sim- ple truth is they talk too much and do too little. They interfere with the or- derly dispatch of business at the national capitol and they ‘should all be brought home to stay. Republfcans, - let us keep Nebraska in line from one end of the state to the other for répliblicanism, for McKinleylsm and for Theodore Ronsevelt. Give Van Dusen a Seat., At the conclusion of Mr. Brown's address Charles A. Goss moved the chair to ap- point a committee of seven on credentlals. Edward Rosewater directed attention to the fact tbat the delegates were assem- bled for serious work and insisted that no contests had been flled or made a ma ter of record, the credentials as presented to the chairman should be accepted by the convention. He understood that only one seat was contested. Mr. Rosewater moved to accept the credentials, but was in- formed by the chairman that notice of a contest for one seat in the Douglas county delegation: had been filed” Mr. Rosewater, upon hearing this, moved that inasmuch as the gentleman who was knocking at the door was a candidate for governor, and as there were fifteen vacant seats in the delegation, he be admitted to fill one of the vacancics, and that the lists of dele- gates as handed to the chairman, with this addition, be accepted as the lists of ac- credited delegates. Goss withdréw the original motion and the one Introduced by Mr. Rosewater was then carried by unanimous vote. Davidson for Permanent Chairman. Samuel P. Davidson of Tecumseh, with- out any opposition, was unanimously elocted permanent chairman. A. B. Allen, N. P. Ludden, E. L. Gustafson and T. S. Armstrong were elected permanent secre- tarfes. Accepting the gavel, Judge David- son sald: 1 appreciate very keenly the honor you have done me here this afternoon in se- lecting me to preside over this magnificent convention, and I thank you for the mark of your favor. I join with my predecessor in congratulating you and the republicans of Nebraska for the auspiclous circum- stances under which we have assembled here today. As a republican I am proud of the results of the leadership of .those McKinley and Roosevelt. Re- tesmanship has given the word a new meaning. The repub- ways ready to do honmor to have added new luster to the ensign of this great nation. Shame on the man or set of men who would slander the American soldier. As Ameri- cans we have no apologies ‘o offer. But the recent advances of this nation are only prophetic of its oncoming greatness. | Americans were never in a_ position where feel prouder of the nation than Committee Named. On motion of Lincoln Frost of Lancaster this committee on resolutions was ap- pointed by the chairman: Frost of Lan- caster, John Reese of Custer. J. A. Ebrhardi of Stanton, R. W. Sabin of Gage, W. T. Wilcox of Lincoln, J. D. Haskell of Dixon and W. 8. Norten of Red Willow. A mo- tion was carried to refer all resolutions without reading to this committee, The convention quickly resolved to pro- ceed under the order of business as set forth in the call. A motion to take an tnformal ballot for governor was defeated. First Ballot for Governor. The first formal ballot resulted: Robert- son, 252; Black, 202; Wilson, 146; Mickey, 132; Sears, 111; Jessen, 109; Dinsmore, 94; Van Dusen, 54; Savage, 2; Dean, 1, as fol- COUNTY.

During the roll call for the third ballot Gage started the slide to Dinsmore. In the fourth ballot Douglas voted 95 for Dinsmore and other counties soon followed their example and fell into the Dinsmore column. At the conclusion of the fourth call, and before the result was announced, Goss agaln got the floor and protested against the vote of the delegation, insist- ing that four of the delegates had not been correctly reported. Without taking a poll the chalrman of the delegation ceded the four votes, the final report belng: Dina- more, 91; Mickey, 2; Robertson, 2. The fifth ballot was finished amid a tu- mult. Several more counties fell Into the Dinsmore column and some changed to Robertson. Cheer after cheer was given at each mention of a favorite name. As finally announced it was: Dinsmore, 414; Robertsoy, 377; Black, 80; Jessen, 62; Wil- son, 54; Sears, 16; Mickey, 87. The balloting continued without decisive change until 7 o'clock, when a recess for one hour was taken. Memorial to Lambertson. 1 The delegates were slow in reassembling, but when Chairman Davidson called for order at 8:20 every seat In the hall was occupled. Resolutions on the death of G. M. Lambertson were presented by Peter Jensen and passed by a rising vote under a suspension of the rule requiring all reso- lutions to be submitted to the committee without being read. The convention then proceeded to the tedious task of balloting. As the vote was being called the tenth time, this being the first after the recess, M. B. Reese, chair- man of the Lancaster county delegation, gained recognition and sald: “I wish to say on behalf of Mr. Wilson that he has released this delegation, contrary to my desire and hope, but I have been instructed by the delegation to cast twenty-six votes for Mickey and twenty-six for Dinsmore.” Cheering followed this announcement. Mickey Wins the Place. On the twelfth ballot the seventeen votes of Madison county were tramsferred from the Madison county candidate, Robertson, to Mickey. Other counties followed, nearly all of Robertson’s strength golng to Mickey, who received a total of 475 votes. After the result was announced Paul Clark moved to nominate Mickey by acclamation. There were excited demands for a roll call, and the motion recelving no recognized second, another ballot was taken. On the next and decisive ballot, the thirteenth, Douglas gave its full vote to Mickey, making the nomination a cer- tainty. From Dinsmore's delegation came a motion to make the nomination of Mickey unanimous. The motion was Immediately put to a vote and carried with a tremen- dous outburst of applause. Mr. Mickey was escorted to the plat- form by a committee consisting of Will Hayward of Otoe and Thomas H. Waters of Clay. He responded briefly to the re- peated calls for a speech. One after an- other the defeated candidates were called to the platform. Bach congratulated the convention . upon the nomination and pledged his services for the ticket. MeGilton of Douglas. The roll was called for lfeutenant gov- ernor, and while the figures were belng added by the secretaries the report of the resolutions committee was preseuted and unanimously adopted. The first ballot for lleutenant governor resulted: McGliton, 464; Holbrook, 344; Steele, 95; Armstron 32; Rouse, 99; Robertson, 37; Cady, 1. Halfway down the list in the second roll call Steele moved to make the nomina- tion of McGilton unanimous. The motion carried unanimously and McGilton re- sponded briefly to calls for a speech. The roll was called for treasurer and while the secretaries were figuring .the totals the following communication from the Nebraska senators was read and or- dered placed on file: WASHINGTON, June 18—To the gates of the Nebraska Republican Convention, Lincoln: much tional capitol at the present time, we desire by means of this joint communication to convey to the republican party of the sta of Nebraska, through its delegates in con: vention imbled, our most earnest con- gratulations upon the favorable and har- monlous conditions which surround our or- ganization at this, the beginning of an- ar———————y UP IN MINNESOTA The Women Know How, Food, and good food, is the right kind of foundation to bulld good health on.

Particularly should the republican party teel gratified with the principles it has up- held and the legislative enactments it has advocated and is still advocating at this session of congrees. The Philippines government bill, which hae passed the senate and is now before the house, will demonstrate through its future application the abllity, the liberality and the broad-mindedness ~of republican statesmanship. The proyisions of that measure will carry to a benighted people the blessings of natlonal independence and the opportunities for indlvidual achicve- ments. 8o just and equitable is the con- struction of this measure that members ot the opposition in the semate could find no round upon which to question its merits; ence, through apparent disappointment in that respect, they directed thelr attacks toward the soldiers.of the American ariny who are fighting and falling, in line of duty, 8,000 miles away. Irrigation Bill a Law. By the time your convention assembles the frrigation bill will have received the signature of the president. This legislation alone Is 80 noteworthy that, in our opinion were the president to encourage and puf into execution no other important measiire during the remainder of his term, his vig- orous support of the national lrrigation law would mark his entire admini; " as a success. Through a sultable system of frrigation that vast area of waste land of the central and Pacific portions of our national commonwealth, which has re- mained so long untilled and uninhabited, will be reclaimed to fertility and develop- ment. M"“K twb projects, on & large scale, are under coneideration looking to- ward the establishment of jrrigation works in_the western part of Nebraska. That territory which has herétofore been des'g- nated as barren will be added to the wealth producing elements of our state. The re- publican_party, with the invaluable assist. ance of President Roosevelt, we are proud to say, took the initiative In this move- ment and will receive the credit for guld- ing it to a successful consummation. Another important measure which should, and likely will be, determined before the adjournment of congress relates to the re- ciprocal trade arrangements with the re- public of Cuba. Believing that something ghould be done for that lsland, we have, at all times, been heartily in accord, with the attitude of President Roosevelt on that eubject. Desiring, also, to do all in our power to protect the interests of the beet cugar industry, which Is o clossly fdenti- fled with the material welfare of the state of Nebraska and of the west, as against the smelfish claims of the Sugar trust, we stand ready today, as we have in the past, to support any measure that will lend atd directly to the people ol Cuba without in- fiicting too great an injury upon any American_industrial institution. In _this we are simply upholding the expressed doctrine of the late Willlam McKinlev. In his last public utterance at Buffalo he made use of the following language: “If perchance some of our tarifts are no longer Needed for revenue or to encourage and protect our industries at home, why should they not be applied to extend or promote our markets abroad?’ Limitations on Reciprocity. In that one sentence alone, a Sentence that has upon it the stamp of Immortality, Willlam McKinley reaffirmed for the las time, his unalterable faith in the policy of & protective tarift and in that reaffirma- tion he defined the limitations within which might be exercised the principles of recip- rocity. 'We are willing to join with the president in granting & speeific’ reduction of the {ariff_on all imports from Cuba, ‘but we weuld includé in that concession a pro- vision to have the différential removed from refined sugar and added to' the unre- fined in the case’ of importations of that article from other countries. It ls only i this minor detafl that we differ from some few republican senators whose posi- tion might be construed as opposing the sugar producers of this country; but feel- ing confident that the transfer 6f the dif- ferential, which is a speclal protection to the Sugar trust, will benefit the beet sugar industry of this country and will tend to heck the unprecedented growth and power of sald trust, it being nothing more than « importing organization, practically em- oying no American labor, we claim justi- Reation in demanding that this qualifyin clause be embodied In the plan propose by & majority of the republican senators.

(From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, June 18.—(Special T ~The report of the committee on resolu- tions was presented after the nomination of Mr. Mickey and was adopted unanl- mously as read. It is in full as follows: The republican glny of Nebraska, In conventlon assembled, congratulates ' the people upon the present prosperity under republiean administration, which applies to each branch of industry, and which (s not bounded by any state of any interest, but applies to all the people, whether I the employment of capital or following the pursuits of labor. While the commercial and manufacturing interests are in the helght of prosperity the agricultural inter- ests are equally prosperous, and the farmer and the laborer find full and just re- muneration as the results of their afforts, We affirm the platform adopted by our party at Philadelphia in 190. We deeply deplore the tragic and un- timely death of our great leader, the coun- try's martyred president, Willlam McKin- ley. While deeply feeling the loss, we con- gratulate the people of this great republic upon possessing a vice president sufficlently courageous to follow out the wise policies inaugurated by his illustrious predecessor. Endorsement of R We heartily indorse the administration of President Theodore Roosevelt, We espe- clally commend the justice and wisdom of his reciprocity policy with Cubs, as em- n his message to CONET We commend the bold d that he has taken against the formation or perpetuatiou of unlawful combinations in restraint of trade. We are heartily in sympathy with the pitsident's policy in favor of the national rrigation law and we commend our sena- tors and representatives for their efforts in_securing the passage of the same. The American soldier needs no apology. His record is one of loyalty, bravery and genergsity toward a treacherous and cruel 'oe. In battle, in victory and in defeat he @s been the pride of his countrymen, and challenges the admiration of the world. To criticlse him is unjust, to’ denounce him Tan’lrd;y. to deprive him of the honor won s cruel. velt. On State Iswu We favor the most speedy revision of the state constitution to meet the demands of the twentieth cemtury conditions, and by the submission of needed amendments through the coming leglslatire or by the calling of a constitutional convention. We demand the enactment of additional laws that will hold, every custodian- of pub lic funds that may come into his slon by virtue of of the principal also of the interest acoruing thereon We commend the economy and retrench- ment inaugurated by the present state ad- ministration in the management of state institutions and the turning in to the public treusury of all interest on public funds We realize, however, that the condition of the stateé’'s finances urgentl uires measures to Increase state revenues and to educe the state debt, which exceeds the constitutional Nmit. With this object in view, a more strict enforcement of the laws’ relating to assessment and taxation is imperative.

The ‘mill owners say they will resume work in the morning and will hold the city and were thrust aside and driven out of the mill, amid the most foul abuse. | Policeman Opens Fire. The Hall mill, which shelters four silk working firms, was the next point of attack. A single policeman guaged the main en- trance. He was ordered to stand aside and on refusing he was attacked. He drew his revolver and began to fire. Lora Salvino, | an Italian, 24 years old, who lives and works In Hackensack, received the first bullet, which penetrated both lungs. The mob drew back and the officer regained his post in the doorway. Several shots were fired at him, but none took effect. He replied, firing directly Into the crowd until his weapen was emptied, when flve more uniformed men and one In plain clothes came on a run through Fulton street. The mob kept on firing and the officers charged, firing when the strikers broke and ran. Spectators say that fully 100 shots were fired. Salvinl was left behind and was taken to the hospital. One hundred and fifty hats were picked up in the street after- ward which were lost in the wild scramble to get away. There is no doubt that several of the rioters were hurt. It was about this time that Mayor Hinchliffe called on the firemen for aid and men were detalled from each company and armed, and during the afternoon rendered efficlient service. The thooting seemed to scatter the rioters, but it was not long before a dense mob had formed again, this time about the Gaede mill on North Streight street, where there was a crowd of 2,000. Half of them were rioters and the rest onlookers. The mill county responsible for all resulting damage. | CALL FOR GENERAL STRIKE Convention of Miners to Be Held Indianapolis to Vote on the Question.

Harry Harris, a reporter, was at this point. He was armed with a revolver and had a camera with which he attempted to take pictures, standing on a stoop a short distance down the street. His act of tralning the camera was seen and he was warned to desist. A moment later a rain of stones fell about him and he was knocked down. As he fell men rushed on him and he was kicked and beaten. He drew his revolver and tried to use it, but it was jammed and kicked from his hand. A man grabbed it and fired at Harrls, the bullet entering his chest. He has a slight chance of recovery. By this time the mill was emptied of the operatives and this practically ended the rioting for the day, after all the mills had closed down. During the day, from time to time, the wounded had been carried to the hospitals. Beeides thore whose names can be given, it is certaln that many more were hurt.
