TR.NPKUANF'K I.KADKHS NAMKI. CINCINNATI, July 1.—John ltidwelhof California, and .1. It. Cranfil, of Texas, are tho nominees of the prohibition party for president and vice president ol the United States. Tliis result was the ending of a long- and nomcwhat boisterous day's work in convention, and was only reached a little before 2 o'clock this morning.

Hoth of the day sessions of the convention were spent in long and at times heated debates over the platform, ami when that matter was settled it was 10 o'clock before the work of nominating candidates really began. Oratory eulogistic of the candidates consumed some hours more, and it was exactly midnight when the result of the ballot for the candidate for president was announced.

There, had been three names presented to tho convention—John Phlwell, of

St'Tt'il Up the South*

CINCINNATI, July 1. The second day's session of the prohibition national convention was called to order at 0.50 a. m. The southern question broke out before the convention had been in session five minutes, the cause being a speech made by Mrs. Cougar late Wednesday night, which was largely made up of a story about the sale of a negro child at the slavery auction block, the application being made to slavery to drink. The speech aroused indignation on the part of a number of southerners, and at the first opportunity \V. \V. Oibbs, of Virginia, was on his feet and offered the following resolution: "Whercus, The prohibition party Is not RCCtlonal party but i\ national party "Wherein, The issues ot the lato civil war aro settled, nnd settled forever, therefore "Uesolved, That tl is the sense of the convention that the speakers who are accorded the honor of addressinB tin! convention he requested Ui refrain from unnecessary references or illustrations that could he considered as a relleetion on participants In Hie lute strugslo."

After along discussion the resolution was passed with but few dissenting votes.

Speech by Miss Wtllnril.

At the request of a number of delegates "the queen of the prohibition party," as she was introduced by Chairman ltitter, Miss Willard, was called upon for a speech. Miss Willard said she favored' a torpedo fuse which would lift the two old parties out of existence, but sho did not favor fusion of the prohibition party with any other party, and not one word of Jliers had ever bean for fusion, though she was willing to accept all aid possible from tlie farmers and the workingmen. She explained in this light what she had done at the people's party convention in St. Louis, and closed by pledging herself and tlieWoman's Christian Temperance union to stand by the prohibition party.

Taking rp Subscription*.

Chairman Dickie, of the national committee, then introduced Dr. ,J. (J. Kvaus, of Abingdon, 111., who presented a plea for contributions to enable th» national committee to prosecute its work. They needed money, not for "blocks of five," but to keep up the contest against the liquor trafiie. The liquor interest gave money freely to the old parties and prohibitionists ought to be sis ready to make sacrifices for principles as their opponents were for money-gettimr.

The gathering of subscriptions was vigorously pushed, and enough small subscriptions finally received to swell tho total amount to fc!0,0i)0, or S5.000 more than four years ago.

As there was no prospect of an immediate report from the committee 111 resolutions tho convention adjourned until 2 o'elock.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

ORAWFORDSVILLE, INDIANA, FRIDAY, JULY 1, 181*2.

mr.vlnR tho adoption of the minority report Thia minority report WUH on the financial, tariff and silver plank*, and roads as follows:

Tlio Minority Report.

"The issuing of a national currency belongs to con^resH. as the representative of the sovereign power of the nation, and should not be delegated to private Individuals or corporation*. Tho in.sufllch'ut production of pold and the variance of the relative values of Kohl and silver render it impractlcablc to rely u|Km either cold or silver for safe, sound nnd suflk'ient currency. We favor, therefore, the issue of lenallender treasury notes, exchangeable In trold or silver bullion, on a plan similar to that which now floats of i^reenbacUs on SlOO.UkV (XKJ of uUd reserve and mnhes them more acceptable and convenient than either {.'old or silver coin. In the extension of this plan rather than In the coinage of fold and silver lies the solution of the monetary problems that are disturbing all nations. "Our taraff should be so levied us to furnish revenue for the needs of the government economically administered, relieving necessities Used by the mass of the ieople and for the benefit of labor, protecting American productions and manufactures neainst the comiHtltion of foreign nations. The details of our tariff laws having become the football of party politics to the great disturbance and damage to our protective Industries and commcrce, we believe that such details could IK? better adjusted by a tariff commission to recommend to congress duties to meet the wants of the government, so graduated as to protect American skill snd labor against the competition of the world."

The following was offered by the minority as an additional plank to the platform: "Hecognizing and declaring that prohibition of the liquor traltlc has become the dominant issue in national politics, we invite to full party fellowship nil those who on this one dominant Issue are with us agreed, in the full belief that this party can and will remove sectional dUTrrences, promote national unity, and injure the be.st welfare of our entire land."

Great Confusion.

In the midst of tho confusion which followed the convention lost its head and nearly an hour was consumed In amendments to amendments and substitutes for substitutes, calls for previous question, motions to lay on the table, ami every other conceivable proposition.

Finally Hayes of Indiana moved the minority report on the money question be adopted and his motion was duteated by a vote of Hrr to H10 and the third plank of the minority report was adopted. l'ree Coinage Itcjecicri.

Another scene similar to that just described followed the discussion of plank No of th majority report favoring the free and uulimited coinage of silver. The roll of states was called oti tins and it was lost by a vote of tM to :13,V The result of this action is that the third plank of the platform, enunciating the financial policy of the prohibition party, rfmalns in the platform, but there is no plank iu the platform on the silver question.

Fight Over tho Turin' i'lank. The tariff light promptly followed, and it took a few minutes only to defeat the minority plank by a large vote and to adopt the majority plank.

Under the call of tTie previous question, vigorously led by Funk, of New Vork, the other planks of the platform went through without amendment, though against seme.opposltiott in a number of instances.

Crisis in the Convention.

The last plank of the platform making prohibition the dominant issue of the party raised a fierce discussion, in which Mrs. Helen Gougar joined, and it was itnally adopted, but left a soro spot which It will take time to heal.

This recommendation of the minority declaring prohibition the main object ol the party, had been originally laid upon the table, and in constquence there was serious danger of a big split, not only in tho convention, but in the prohibition party and of a bolt on the part of the members of the New Yoi'.. Pennsylvania and other delegates, including William T. Wardwell, secretary of the national committee and treasurer of the Standard Company, and other influential members. The lluanclal and other economic planks were extremely distasteful to them, and the last minor ity resolution, making prohibition the only lest of-party fealty, was the principal tie* that still bound them to the party. It» defeat, and that with scant courtcsy. bore hard upon them. Members of the delegation acknowledged that some of their associates were thinking of leaving the convention. To most of the delegates the trouble was uuknown. but (.hairman Dickey, of the national committee. Col. lvitter, A. A. Stevens and other leaders knew of the storm within their ranks and were striving for a method by which to prevent an outbreak.

Mr. Stevens, of Pennsylvania, saw alight out of the storm and moved to tuke the prohibition fealty resolution from tho table ami add it to the platform. Chairman Dickey took the lloor and, using his strong personal following, endeayored to bring the convention over to the support of the minority plank.

Mis. Goufrar Tnkex Hand. Mrs. Gougar had all through the evening been watching this resolution with eyes flashing lire, and now she arose in her chair and shouted for a hearing. Woman suffrage, it was developed, was the key to hor antagonism to the resolution. It came, she said, from t.ie elass of prohibitionists who had been lighting woman suffrage, and sho aimed a blow by name at William T. Wardwell, tho treasurer of the Standard Oil Company. It r.iisod a storm of disapproval and a point of order against personal allusions was sustained. Mrs. (Jougar demanded an opportunity to ask Mr. Wardwell a question, and that gentleman arone to meet the interrogation, but chaos was reigalng, so that it was only by the delegates becoming worn out and ceasing yelling to each other to keep quiet that the question could finally be put. Mrs. (Jougar, facing Mr. Wardwell, leveled her right nrm at him and asked him if he had made tho statement that uuless this domlnunt Issue plank were adopted he would walk out of the convention and destri the prohibition party. Tremendous enthusiasm and uproarous applause greeted Mr. Wardwell's emphatic denial of the statement

Adopted.

Tho disturbance ended by Bain, of Kentucky, moving the previous question and the adoption of tho resolution. By a rising vote it was added to tho platform, and as darkness fell over the hall the star of pcaco once again shone on tho prohibition party.

The platform as a whole was adopted, and then a resolution favoring a liberal appropriation by the government for the World Columbian exposition, but only on tho condition that the salo of intoxicating drinks upon the exposition grounds is prohibited and that the exposition be kept closed on Sunday, wus adopted".

A focesa was taken until fi:30 p. m. At tho Kvcnlnf? Session.

On reassembling Chairman Hitter announced the order of business to be the nomination of candidates for president. The roll of states was then called.

IlUluell Named.

Ex-Oov. John P. St. John, of Kansas, in an eloquent speech on beha'.f the Cal» Ifornla delegation placed in nomination Gen. John Bidwell, of California. Gen. HidweU*s nomination was seconded by delegates from California, Connecticut, Florida. MinnesoUi, Missouri, Montana Nebraska, .Nevada, New Jersey, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Rhodo Island, Vermont and Washington.

When Illinois was called liev. John Kvans, of Abingdon, said that at a lato hour Judge MeOullocb had declined to stand as a candidate and he was instructed to second the nomination of Hldwell, of California.

John Lloyd Thomas, of New York, presented the name of W. Jennings Demorest, ami B. Logan, of Ohio, that of Gideon Stewart as candidates for the nomination

Itidwell Nominated.

The ballot resulted: Hldwell, T90: Stewart, 17D Demorest, 1S9. New York gave three votes to Hascom. When the result was known the baud played "Hall, Columbia," and the usual yelling and hnt, handkerchief and umbrella hurrah took place. Finally, when something like quiet had been secured, Georgia, whhh was the only state voting solidly against Bidwell, moved that tlu? nomination le made unanimous. This was seconded by some of Deinorcst's personal friends, und it was duly done with a great hurrah.

For tlie Vice Presidency.

John P. St John then presented to Jehu Lloyd Thomas a purse of iJOO from the conven

tion for services to hi?- \y :«s erf and the roll-call for candidates for vkepvesi dent was ordered.

For the viee-presidemial nr-mlnu'iim the following natnes were presented: S :n \Y StiiuK, of Georgia George• W. Bain, ol Kenuel-v Jeshu.i Levering, of Maryl-.ma: \Y W. at^r e. of Minnesota: J. B. Craitlii. -.r 'iV'aas- *t:d Thomas H. Carskadden, of \Ve VjrM.Ui 'i n-imus of Bain and Small were \v hh -'/.vNa. ai:ii the convention proceeded tu ballot.

The call of states was ordered at l:ifei a in and on-the lirst ballot there was no ehou-«- for vice president, the vote being: Cnnfil. KM. Levering, a7: Car.ikadden, *J1 Saierjce .',M.

Cranlll Nominated.

Before the result of this ballot wa announced, however, enough change* were had to make the vote stand: Cranlll. 'lid: Leverson.

Saterlee. Carskadden. iM. and Cran»\1 was deelnred the nominee. Resolutions of thanks to everybody wrr« voted, and the convention adjournal in con fu:ion over a d's?us:dor. of the indignity oil*-red the colored nun by Cincinnati hotels, at «:ui» a m. 'I he Tint form.

The i-la'tform. 'as ft was finally "adopted,'is a follows: The prohibition party in national convention assembled, acknowledging Almighty God as the source of all true government and His law as the standard. to wh:ch all human enactment must conform to secure the blessings of pe:ue und prosperity, presents the following declaration of principles:

Prohibition of Liquor Traffic. 1. The liquor traftlc is a foe to civiiuailon. the aieh enemy of ]opular government and public nuisance. It is the citadel of the forces that corrupt polities, promote poverty and crime, degrade tho nation's home life, thwart the will of the people, and deliver our country into the hands of rapacious class interests. All laws that under the pulse of regulation legalize and protect this traftlc or make the government share in its ill-gotten gains are "vicious in principle and powerless as a remedy."

We declare anew for the entire suppression of the manufacture, sale, imiortatlon, exportation and transportation of alcoholic liquors as a beverage by federal ami slate legislation, and the full powers of the government should be exerted to secure thf.i result. Any party that fails to recognize the dominant nature of this issue In American politics is undeserving of the suplort of tho people.

Woman's SnOY.ij **.

2. No citizen should le denied tho rlehl to vote on account of sex, and equul labor should receive equal wages without regard io sex.

As to Money.

3. The money of the country should be issued by the general Rovernmem only and in sufilclent quantities to meet the demands of tho business and give full opportunity for the employment of labor. To this end an increase in the volume of money is demanded, and no individual or corporation should be allowed to make any pront through its issue. It should be made a legal tender for the payment of all debts, public and private. Its volume should be ilxed at a definite sum per capita and made to increase with our increase In (Herniation.

Tho Turin*.

4. Tariff should be levied only as a defense against foreign countries which levy tariff upon or bar out our products from their markets, revenue being incidental The residue of means necessary to an economic^] administration of tin? government should be raised by lowing a burden on what the people possess instead "of upon what we consume.

Control or Railroads.

ft. Waliroad, telegraph and other public corporatwns should be controlled by the. government in the Interest of Die peoploand no high"! chniges allowed th-in necessary to fair interrsi on the capital actually invested.

Immigration I.awn.

t. Foreign immigration has become a burden upon industry, one of the factors in depressing wages and causing discoutent, therefore our immigrate laws should be revised and strictly enforced. The tjmo of residence for naturalization should be extended and no naturalized poison should be allowed vote until one year after he becomes a citizen.

Allen Land Owners.

7. N nresider.ts should not bo allowed to acquire land iu this country, and we favor tho limitation of individual and corporate ownership of laud. All unearned grants of lands to railroad cor|M»rations should be reclaimed.

Tho Rreont Lynching*.

H. Years of Inaction and treachery on the part of the republican and democratic parties have, resulted In the present reign of mob law, and we demand that every citizen be protected in the right of trial by constitutional tribunals.

One Hay of Rest.

0. All men should be protected by. law In their right to one day's rest inwoven. l.-'uvorl j£ Arbitration 10. Arbitration is tho wisest und mo«v economical and humane method of settling national differences.

Speculation in JWarRins.

11.

Speculations In margins, tho corncrlng of grain, money and products, and the formation of pools, trusts and combinations for t)y» arbitrary advancement of prices should be suppressed.

Pensions.

12. We pledge that the prohibition party if elected to p-\ver will ever grant just pensions to disabled veterans of the union army and navy, their widows and orphans.

Tho School Ouestlon.

Itt. We stand unequivocally for the American public school and opposed to any appropriation of public moneys for sectarian schools. We declare that only by united support of such common schools, taught In the HngJish language, can we hope to become-and remain an homogeneous and harmonious people.

Arraignment of tlic Old Parties. H. We arraign the republican and democratic parties as false to the standards roared by their founders: as faithless to the principles of the illustrious leaders of the past to whom they do hoinagu with the lips as recreant to the higher law," which is as indexible in political affairs as in personal life and us no longer embodying tho aspirations of the American people or inviting the confidence of enlightened, progressive patriotism. Their protest against the ndtnissien of "moral Issues" into polities Is a confcssion of their own moral degeneracy. The declaration of an eminent authority that municipal misrule is "the one conspicuous failure of American politics" follows as a natural consequence of such degeneracy, und is true alikeof cities under republican and democratic control. Each accuses the other of extravagance Iu congressional appropriations, and both ar» alike guilty. Each protests when outof innveragaJn^t the infraction of the eivll-servJcc laws, and each in power violates those Jaws in letter and spirit. Each profesfces fealty to the Interests of the toiling masses, but both covertly trticklc to the money power in their udmloistration of public affairs. Even the tariff. Issue ns represented in the democratic Mills ami the republican MeKlnlcy bill is no longer treated by them as an issue upon great and divergent principles of government, but is a mere catering to different sectional and class interests. The attempt lu many states to wrest the Australian ballot system from its true purpose and to so deform it t.s to render it extremely difficult for new parties to the rights ef suffrageisanoutragr upon popular government. Tho competition of both tin: parties for the vote of the slums and their assiduous courting of the liquor power ami subserviency to the money power has suited in placing those 'powers in the iKjsition of practical arbiters of the destinies of the nation. We renew our protest against these perilous tendencies ami InvHe all citizens to join us In the upbuilding of a party that has shown in live national campaigns that it prefers temporary defeat to an abandonment of tho claims of justice, sobriety. |ersonal rights and the protection of American homes.
