At 2:30 P.

M. the convention was called to order by Mr- I. A. Shriver of Peabody, who in a few terse and pithy sentences, stated the purposes of the meeting and the Cardinal principles of the Democrat ic party. "All those present," said the speaker, ''have reason to be proud of their party and of the strength, shown by their party in being able to elect a president of the United States, and 28 governors of states, and," said he, "if I am not mistaken in the signs of the timea we will have another Democratic governor in Col.

Moonlight." Mr. Shriver spoke about the prohibition law and stated in generrJ terms his dislike to all sumptuary legislation. "The Prohibition law," said the Chairman, "ha3 "resulted in our main imports being beer "cases-and concealed whisky; our empty bottles, and we annually 'send to Missouri enough money to the expenses of that state and in "return get adulterated liquors." Mr Shriver was loudly cheered on resuming his seat. J. H.

Costello then read the ca and J. J. Funk, of Peabody was elected temporary Chairman, with J. O. Gaver as Secretary.

Mr. Funk in a few appropriate words, thanked the convention for the honor done him, and stated hi3 firm belief in Democratic principles. On motion of Mr. J. D.

Eiggs, the Chairman proceeded to name the several committees as follows: On Credentials, T. L. Fenno, W. H. Walgemuth and Chas.

Here a recess of 20 minutes was allowed to give the committees time to report. On re-assembling the Chairman read the reports as follows: We the committee on business report the following order, viz: Report of committee on Report of committee on order of busi ness. Report of committee on permanent organization. Selection and nomination of Couc'y Central Committee for next year. On motion of J.

The Committee on Resolutions then submitted the following platform which was carried with lond cheers We. the Democrats of Marion county, in convention assembled, hereby announce and declare the following to. be our platform: 1.

We heartily endorse and support i tbe clean and honest administration of our Grover Cleveland, and fully believe in his honesty, ability and unparalleled courage to carry out the reforms for which he Was elected. 2. We steadfastlv adhere to the time- Iriod and honored principles of Jeffer-soinon Democracy, and maintain that this is a government by the people through the people and for the people, as against a government for the rich, through the rich and by the rich, and we endorse tne JNauonai ptatform of 1884. 3. vve believe the principles of con stitutional prohibition to be a faulty and mistaken one.

but we aiso beiievem tne fundamental principles of Democracy, that the majority must rule, and that law, so long as it is Jaw, shourd De obeyed, we therefore believe that an honest pnd earnest enforcement of the laws would soon show all the merits and demerits of the same, and result in their repeal, but the equivocal and hypocritic al stttitude ot tne Kepnblican party on this question is unfair, and not conducive to good morals nor aiding real tem perance. acob JL OTK, S. F. Caktkr. J.

D. Riggs. Mr. Geo. Town then nloved the nomi nation of a full county ticket.

(Loud cheers.) Mr. Chas. Barker hoped the motion would not carry and made some broad statements, without reason or argument, that the party had no material and that he believed it was against the best interests of the partv. Mr. Frank Carpenter followed in the same strain and gave the convention to understand that he was faint-hearted.

He said that "men lost prestige by be ing nominated year after year, only to be downed at the polls," and Mr. Car penter also made the wondrous assertion that President Cleyeland was elected by Republicans. Mr. Covert wanted to know "if he was in a Democratic convention it it was possible that the convention would allow a few of the faint-hearted to throw "dust in its eyes and on pretense of their own party allow these cow ardly delegates to give the influence of "the convention to the support of the "Republican candidates?" (Loud cheers.) Mr. Covert "wanted them to plank "down a standard, rally round it and "support it with all their might." The speaker was loudly cheered on resuming his seat Mr.

McLean of Summit thought it was eometirnes a mark of good generalship to keep in the back ground and denior alize the enemy by sly thrusts from be hind, but this theory aa applied to Democratic action was very unfayorably received Mr. Town of Centre, "thought we had met to nominate a full ticket. We have been told we have no material, this is grossly false and is either stated under a mistake or because the speakers have some other ax to grind.

To the Chairman of the Democratic Central Committee of Marion County, Kansas: I hereby respectfullv but positively decline to accept the nomination of the late Democratic County couvention for the office of County Attorney. I am not candidate for election to any office.

Thanking the convention for the proffered honor, I am, very resiectfully. T. A. Bogle. To ttie Democrats of Marion ConEty, Gentlemen: Allow me to express my thanks for the confidence reposed in me by yon, through your convention in nominating me for the office of County Superintendent.

While I appreeiaLejihe kindness of my friend in the convention and do not wish to deprive them of a candidate for the olSce, et an I neither eought for nor desired the nomination, I feel under no obligations to accept it. Therefore, with feelinsn? of nrofound reppect and grate fulness toward my Democratic friends, and best wishes for the good of the schools of the couDty, I respectfully de-cline to make the race. Yours Truly, It. M. Williams.

SI.AIN IN ITS OWN HOUSZIIOLD. The assembly of Democratic delegates at the Court House on Saturday last pre eented a scene of marvelous audacity and shameful perfidy on tb.3 part of the anti-ticket element. We commend the manly courage of those who secured the motion for a ticket but regret that their point was lost by trickery later on. Figuratively speaking the party fell a victim to the heartless throat of it3 own members. Individual Democrats have a right to vote and work for Elder Foote and Mr.

Wheeler in their individual capacity, if they so prefer, but it is not only insolent but dishonorable for their Democratic friend3 to accept the trust of a delegate to the party convention, and pervert the privileges of that position to the po litical beneGt of the party's enemies. We attach no blame to the gentlemen named but we want to put the responsibility upon the head of assumed democratic leaders where it belongs. No honorable man would accept a delegateship to a convention when he was pledged in advance to the' opponents of, whoever that convention might nominate. We are perfectly astounded at snch political per fidy. The result is the party is practically MARION FURNITURE STORE!

which was made unanimous. For District clerk. Bert Wheeler was nominated bv acclamation. There being no further business before the meeting, on motion the convention adjourned. MARTIN AT 3IAKIOV.

The opera house was well filled on Monday even'ngto hear the Democratic candidate for Coagress discuss the polit ical issues of the day. The wide and favorable acquaintance of Jcidge Martin in the. county gave him an intelligent audience here, with many ladies to add grace and refinement to the occasion. The position of the speaker on the finance we believe to be meritorious. He vfould do -awav entirely with national fenk circulation and in lieu thereof issue treasury notes.

Republicans, of course resist this idea, pri marily upon the ground of unoonsMtu-al'ty, but the real objection to it omes from the monied men and privileged classes that ha ve rown fat from the vicious enactments of Republican con gresses. The people have been blindeii for years on the fallacy of attaching safety to national banks. Jib one denies the ii 7 1 saiety oi tue.r ct. cuiunuu, uuu to a national bank noi.e any rafer or more valuable to the holder than a greenback note? They are to-equal in their re-deemability and purchasing power because the government is brck of both. But the people ought to know that de positors in national baks have no greater security ordinarily than those of most slate banks, This idea of safety is the only thing that has ever made national banks tolerable.

But between banknote and treasurv notes there is no difference. An imaginary difference has been made to appearby the sophistry of contrasting notional bank with tbe old state bank circulation. No one wants to return to that antiquated policy of banking. The constitutional objection, ssys Judge Martin, is of no weight whatever. It was decided to be constitutional by the U.

S. Supreme court to issue treas- or greenback notes when the nation was in peril, and the same thing can be lawully done now. The Judge's exposition of Republican jugglery the matter of pensions was iust. c'ear and courteous. He showed to any itwi miuu iua.tr liic Republican party of late years has used the pension bounties of the government in a wav that would do the party the most good.

He believes that every soldier who becomes disabled, whether as a result of usering and wounds in the army or not, should receive a pension to sustain his de-lLiing years. If Republicans weie sincere in their professions of frienushin for the soldier a law embodying this provision would have been passed years ago. We have no hesitency in saying that Mr. Martin is making an able and an honest canvas of this district, with very good pi oepects of election. Brd.

led the applause at "ihe Hon Jutige Martin's" speech wao'nt Tery "vociferous in his approval of the Hon. Jaflge's fe-d for the Knight of Ijtlor vote. We would to have the Tbibuse give us-rta Democratic opinion of that part of the Hon. Jadge'a address. Lecord.

Our opinion is frankly this: The Judge stated only general propositions, to-wit, that a3 corporations were creatures of public concession they should be subject to public control, and, turther, that as capitalists were permitted to organize for tbeir mutual oenent, so ougnt tue laboring man to have the right to do likewise. No one disputes these geuefal propositions, and inasmuch as tbey sug gest nothing by way of affirmative relief for the present amicutty, mere was nothing to applaud. ELECTION PROCLAMATION.
