WISCONSIN STATE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
Their Chnloo for Governor to He Mario Known Today It'll Ijjun Hopobllcans Adopt a Platform—(iold Men Preparing for IndlatiMpoll* Meeting
Milwaukee, Wis. Aug. 6.—High temper and high temperature combined to make Wednesday's session of the republican state convention an event that will long be remembered. It was merely skirmishing for the first few hours, and the La Follette people did not show their hand until it came to the seconding speeches. H. C. Adams, of Dane county, the food and dairy commissioner of the state, had made the opening speech, placing La Follette's name before the convention, and the other four candidates had in turn been placed in nomination, when a delegate arose and moved that seconding speeches be limited to five minutes each, if there were to be
any.
To this
the leaders of the rival forces agreed. The gaunt form of ex-Gov. Hoard arose when the 2d district was called, and he moved slowly toward the platform. There was a burst of applause as he reached the platform. When it had subsided he began a statement of his position 011 the Bennett law isssue. which was a complete surprise to the great majority of those who heard him. It was not a recantation, but the manly acknowledgment of a beaten man. The La Follette people sent to the platform immediately after Hoard a Lutheran minister of Dane county to second La Follette's nomination. It was the Rev. Mr. Herbelq, who has charge of four Lutheran congregations in Dane county. and he announced that his people believed the Bennett law question hal been settled for good, that there was no danger of its cc-ming up again and he and his people were for Robert La Follette as the republican candidate for governor.
He was followed when tlie 4th, the Milwaukee, district was reached, by a colored delegate named Green, who seconded the nomination of La Follette. liy this time the enthusiasm for the Dane county man was becoming infectious. and the other forces saw a danger of a stampede. They accordingly rushed T. W. Spence, a Scofield man, to the platform, thus playing into the hands of La Follette, who was now simply killing time in order to prevent a ballot being taken before the adjournment. Mr. Spence claimed t.he Bennett law issue was not dead. This was greeted with interruption of dissent from the body of the convention, and some on the stage, which had been reserved for prominent republicans, hissed.
Theodore Zillmer of Milwaukee had gone to the stage to second La Follette's nomination and had waived his right to allow Spence to speak for Scofield. There was a move to cut off further seconding speeches, but Zillmer was on the platform, and. seeing tha*. a ballot could not be reached. Chairman Griffin announced that an adjournment would have to be taken in a few moments. H. W. Adams at once moved to adjourn until 10 o'clock this morning, and it was promptly carried. The temporary organization of the convention was not made permanent.
C. A. Lamoreaux of Ashland, the temporary chairman, proved to be hardly large enough to handle the crowd, and Gen. Michael Griffin of Er.u Claire was decided upon to take his place.
The following platform was presented and adopted: "The republicans of Wisconsin in convention assembled, announce their cordial and hearty indorsement of the platform of principles adopted by the late national republican convention of St. Loins, and pledge a loyal, united and vigorous support of the principles and policies therein announced and defined. We believe that the restoration to power in national affairs of the party that stands for a sound and stable currency, honest money with which to pay the wages of labor,buy the products of the farm and factory and carry on the business of this great country, and for a fair and equitable protective tariff that will protect all the people and every section of the country, give employment to American labor and preserve to American producers the first chance in our home markets, and at the same time give us enough revenue to pay the necessary expenses of carrying on the government, lies the only hope of a return to our former prosperity. "We recognize in William M«Kinley and Garret A. Hobart, our nominees for president and vice-president, *he highest character and fitness—candidates in whose wisdom, Integrity and patriotism all the people can safely put their trust and confidence. "We express our unqualified disapproval of the utteranoes of the late Chicago convention upon matters of national policy. We denounce them as dangerous in their character, tending to the destruction of all business securities and prosperity and subversive of the fundamental principles of good government. We commend most heartily the able, economical and busi-ness-like conduct of public affairs by our present state administration. "The republican party believes in liberty of conscience, non-sectarianism in public affairs, entire separation of church and state, in free common schools, and the utmost Independence of individual thought, s'feech and action within the law. "We favor the restriction of undesirable Immigration as opposed to the Interests of our laboring people, and approve the enactment of measures to prevent fraudulent naturalization. "We cordially Invite the voters oi Wisconsin, without regain to past po
litical affiliation, to the support of the principles herein announced." Committees were announced as fol lows:
Resolutions—A. S. Douglas, \Y. Lowry, Philip Allen, Jr., A. W. Bell. F". A. Dow, Charles A. Huchthaus' :i. F. Jones, Frank W. Harriman. S. Fifield, B. F. Millard.

Michigan Krpubllciirn M»-ot ami Stntc Their Principles.
Grand Rapids, Mich., Aug. 6.—Th republican state nominating convention met Wednesday with the galleries and platform packed. The convention war lied to order by State Chairman D. M. Ferry. The Rev. Dr. John L. Jackson invoked the divine blessing, and then Victor M. Gore was introduced as temporary chairman. He made a vigorous speech in favor of gold.
The speech was frequently applauded, especially all reference to the gobstandard. D. E. L. Ward of Clare wa: made temporary secretary.
At 7:30 the committee on credential, was unable to agree on the St. Claicontest, and the convention decided 1., receive the report on all other counth.. and allow the committee until 9 o'clot'. to consider the St. Clair matter, an thirty minutes to each side of the Clair fight to present its claims. K: Lieutenant-Governor J. Wight Giddings of Cadillac was made permanent chairman, and Burt Parker of Monroe permanent secretary.
The report of the committee on resolutions was adopted without debate or amendment, as follows: "The republicans of Michigan, in convention assembled, do affirm: "1. We declare our continued allegiance to the republican party, which now, as heretofore, stands for the upholding of law and order, the encouragment and protection of the commerce of our country, its industries, its labor, its farms and firesides, the development of its resources, the maintenance of its credit and the defense of its honor among the nations of the world. "2. We accept and indorse the platform of the national republican convention of 1S96 at St. Louis, and we call upon all loyal citizens of the republic to unite in its support. "3. We denounce the so-called democratic national platform recently adopted at Chicago for iu insults to our courts and our judges, for its pandering to disorder and mob violence, for its sympathy with anarchism, for its proposal to repudiate public and private debts, for its intention to subsitute silver monometallism in place of the wise and liberal policy of the republican party, which has been and is the use of gold, silver and paper as the currency of the nation. "i. We congratulate the party upon the eminently wise and satisfactory selection of its standard-bearers in the present national campaign. We zealously emphasize our fealty to that distinguished American statesman, William McKinley, who best embodies those patriotic and progressive expressions of economic purposes—protection, reciprocity and honest money —and our equally unreserved confidence in the ability and fitness of the candidate for vice-president, Garret A. Ilobart. "5. We indorse the administration of I our honored executive, Governor John
T. Rich, whose fearless and vigorous fidelity is commended. We favor the strictest economy in all ^tate departinents. We pledge our earnest cooperation in carrying out the will of I this convention as should be'expressed in its choice of candidates for various state offices, and submit our cause to the voters, confident of victory."
The convention then decided to proceed with the presentation of caudidates for governor, and forgot all about the St. Clair case. •••/-,
Nominating speeches were called for Judge Wisner of Flint presented the name of D. D. Aitkin. C. E. Townsend of Jackson that of James O'DonI nell, Judge J. H. McAlvay of Manistee ,,oke for Wheeler, Benton Hanchett of Saginaw for Bliss and Charles
Fowler of Detroit for Pingree. The committee on credentials finally came in with two reports. After a heated debate it was decided by a majority of three to seat both delegations from St. Clair. The nomination will be made to-day, Vlie convention adjourning at midnight. Pingree, it is thought, will be well in the lead on the first ballot, and he or a dark-horse candidate will be named for governor unless Bliss stock revives.
