(Continued from first page.) whole union and declaring that It shall not be restricted in the choice of chair man to members of the committee. Re ferred. A resolution against polygamy was in troduced by Smith, of Utah. Keferred. Further resolutions were ouered and re ferred to the committee on platform against the acquisition of large tracts of public lands by corporations for reform in the civil service by making postmasters elective against unit rule in future con ventions for a systematic reduction of tariff taxes providing that in case of the death of candidates for president or vicc president the chairman shall call together the convention again to All the vacancy for repeal of all legislation which under republican rule has tended to pauperize labor for a constitutional amendment miking the presidential term of office six years, and to limit the disposal of public lands to actual settlers in quantities not more than 160 acres each. Finally a res olution was adopted to refer all such pro positions without being read. Under that rule several anti-Chinese and tariff reform resolutions were referred, being only read by their titles. REPORT OF PERMANENT ORGANIZATION. Report of committee on permanent or ganization was then made. The name of W. H. Vilas, of Wisconsin, was presented as president with a list of vice presidents (ene from each state) and several secre taries and assistants and that the secreta ries and clerks of the temporary organi zation be continued under the permanent organization. Report was unanimously adopted and Hendricks, of Indiana, with five other gentlemen were appointed a committee to escort Mr. Vilas to the chair. The temporary chairman in presenting Mr. Vilas to the convention returned thanks for the chaiity and torbeurance shown towards himself, which he said the per manent chairman would need much less. COL. VILAS' ADDRESS. Vilas in taking the chair returned thanks for the honor done him, not as a recognition of himself but the young de mocracy of the northwest. It was their fair due. It was a tribute to their lofty zeal and patriotism. They bailed it as the presage and prototype of coming tri umph. This convention was assembled to consider a great cause, to pronounce a momentous judgment. Its hand was on the helm of the mighty nation and earth'a greatest, noblest free society would rejoice in the well considered work of this convention. Its import and value lay not in the hope of a mere party vic tory, in clutching the spoils of office but its opportunity was pregnant with mighty possibilities ot nood to men. A great change has been brought in recent years in this country in the minds of people and in political forces. We have ceased to fight over a suicidal war, slavery baa been purged, the work accomplished by those who labored to save the union re mains undisturbed and the gratitude of the people is their reward. (At this point tien* Butler entered the hall and was heartily applauded.) The speaker resum ing said that the country had heard re peated promises of reform from the party in power but had been disappointed until there is a growing conviction that the only hope lies in the quarter of the defeat of the party in power and there is but one hope. It is vain to look to any new party organization. In the wisdom and patriotism of the democracy here assem bled is the only hope of relief. In con clusion he counseled moderation in their action and he hoped for a generous for bearance for himself in the discharge of his duties. CALL FOR THE ROLL OF STATES. Snowden, of Pennsylvania, offered a resolution for a call of the roll of states and placing in nomination of candidates for president and vice president. Clunie, of California, moved its refer ence to the committee on platform. Nom inations should not be made until after the adoption of the platform. The mo tion was rejected. A delegate from Missouri moved an adjournment until 11 to-morrow as the committee on platform bad got tili to morrow to make its report. Motion to adjourn was lost. Motion was made to (ay on the table Snowden's motion to go into nominations now that the question was taken by vote by states and results in the negative. When the state of New York was called its vote of 72 was announced in the nega tive. Qrady challenged the vote aod amid great noise, uproar and hisses tried to present the original tally. The chairman, However, refused to have the roll ca!l m itetrupted. A Connecticut delegate called atten tion to the hisses and asked that the aiahers be instructed to enforce order. The chairman said the guests of the convention could not be permitted to in corrupt its harmonious and orderly pro ceedings and directed the sergeant at aims to remove any persons who would violate order. Tbe roll was proceeded Tvith to the etaae. After roH call and before the an aoucement ot the result the chairman recognized Grady, of New York, who claimed that Che report was at yarianco with tbe official tally. The chairman called «n Mr. Manning, chairman of the New fork delegation, to state again what tfee vote was. Mr. Manning gave 73 noes. The chairman ruled that be must ac cept the vote of the New delega tion aa a unit because tbe alii conven tion had Instructed the delegates to vote as a unit on all questions. The vote was finally announced at ayes 282, noes 521, so tbe conventiou reiused to lay on tbe table the motion to proceed to a call of states for nominations. Clunie, of California, moved as an amendment to the motion to add the fol lowing, "but no vote shall be taken on tbe nominations until after ths platform is adopted." Snowden abcepled tbe amendment and then the motion as amended was agreed to. Harrison, of Illinois, moved adjourn ment until 7 p. m. Clunie, uf California, moved an ad journment uutil to-morrow. Lost. The call of states for nominations for president and vice president was then commenced. THE NAME OF BAYARD PRESENTED. When tbe state of Delaware was called there was an immediate outbreak of cheers. After the uproar had subsided Mr. Geo. Gray, of Delaware, came to the platform and addressed the convention. He said he had been instructed to present the name of a man worthy to receive the nomination. He did so under tbe real izing sense of the great responsibility resting on the convention to act so that the great opportunity which God himself, he reverently believed, had given should not pass away unimproved. The repub lican nomination had tlung defiance into the face of American manhood and had shocked the conscience of the best men in that party. Such a nomination was a sign of the decadence of that great party, not a sign of increasing strength. The democracy called for a candidate who had been tried in the balance and never found wanting the democracy demand a statesman who has wisdom and experi ence it demanded a man whose chivalric courage would never alter and who could and would bring to dust the plumed knight of false pretense and of personal dishonor it demanded a man with a pri vate character which would defy the ma lignant tongue of slander it demanded a man who should be in his public and pri vate character the very antithesis and opposite of the nominee of the republican party (cheers.) A man who was all this acd more, and whose name was now leaping from their hearts to their mouths was Thos. F. Bayard (loud cheers). THE NAME OF MCDONALD PRESENTED. When the state of Indiana was called Mr. Hendricks of that state came to the platform amid loud applause. He said the people demanded a change in the management of federal affairs and that if the convention would give th im half an opportunity they would execute that pur pose in the election ef a president in the coming fall (cheers). He believed the nominee of this convention would be come the chosen president of the United States the first inaugurated democratic president in twcnij-fouT years (cheers. He spoke of the official corruptions ef the republican party and referred to secretary Chandler's recent testimony before a sen ate committee in which he said that the defalcations in one of his buieaus would not exceed $63,000, and yet forty years ago an administration had been put down because of a defalcation of $60,000. When he reached the main subject his speech he suggested for the consideration of the convention a citizen of the state of Indi ana Joseph £. McDonald (cheers). Gen. Black, of Illinois, seconded the nomination of McDonald. They would present, he said, a platform which would appeal to the sober judgment of the peo ple. They also needed a man whose an tecedents are known of all and constitut ed a satisfactory answer to all reasonable objections. They needed a man whose views on all public questions could be found without a search warrant and de termined without an inquisition. Ap plause. THE NAME OF THURMAN PRESENTED. Jofcn W. Breckenridge, of California, introduced by the chairman as the son of the last democratic vice president who was not unjustly deprived of his office He said that tbe delegates from Califor nia had been instructed to present for consideration of the convention, a man who needed no eulogies, whose name was in the hearts of the people of America a man who if nominated would be tbe next president of the United States. That man was Allen G. Thurman, of Ohio. Cheers. The nomination of Mr. Thurman was endorsed by Gen. Durbin Ward, of Ohio, who said Mr. Thurman had no peer ex cept Mr. Tilden. Applause. The dem ocracy had carried the state of Ohio in the last two annual elections and with Thurman as the presidential candidate it would carry it again next October. THE NAME OF CARLISLE PRESENTED. as. A. McKenzie, of Kentucky, next came to the platform and the name of the state which he said would give 50,000 majority to tbe democratic nominee. He nominated the presen'. distinguished speaker of the American house of com mons, John G. Carlisle. In all essential characteristics of manliness, courage, ability and patriotism, Mr. Carlisle was the peer of any great name that bad been or would be mentioned in connection with that office. NOT READX TO PRESENT BUTLER. The state of Massachusetts was called, the response was awaited with much curiosity. The cheers and hisses were about equally balanced, but it was an nounced by Mr. Abbott that Massachu setts had no nomination to make at this tune. The nomination of Mr. Bayard was eloquently seconded by Hooker, of Mis sissippi. THE NAME OF CLEVELAND PRESENTED. When the state of New York was call ed there was a good deal of cheering and waving of handkerchiefs on the part principally of spectators in the galleries. At 3:35 Mr. Lockwood, of New York, came up to the platform to present the name of Mr. Cleveland. He said that the responsibility which he felt was made greater when he remembered that the richest pages of Ameiican history had been made up from the records of dem ocratic administrations and remembered that tbe outrage of 1876 was still un avenged. No man had greater respect than himself for the honored names pre sented to the convention, but the world was moving and new men who had acted but little in politics were coming to the front (cheers) Three years ago lie had the honor in the city of Buffalo to pre sent the name of the same gentleman for the office of mayor and without the sit uation the name of Grover Cleveland had been accepted as the candidate (ap plause in galleries and from position of delegates). The result of that election and the holding of that office was that in les9 than nine months the state of New York found itself in a position to want such a candidate, and when in the con vention cf of 1882, his name was present ed for the office of governor of the state of New York the same class of people knew that that mant honest government,that it mant democratic government and it was ratified (applause). Now the democrats of the state of New York came and ask ed that the name be given to the inde pendent and democratic voters of this country, to the young men of this coun try,the name of Grover Cleveland (cheers). The nomination of Mr. Cleveland was seconded by Harrison, of Illinois. Six weeks ago, he said, the cry was Tilden and reform, now it was Cleveland and reform. Cheers. The democrats of Illi nois believed that the mantle of Samuel J. Tilden had fallen and rested gracefully on the shoulders of Governor Cleveland. He knew tbat there was a faction fight waged against him He knew that it was said tbat a great church would oppose him on religious grounds—no that church never allowed its ministers' voices to be heard in the pulpit preaching politics. (Cheers and cries ot never.) So it was said the Irish would knife him. Were the Irish ever known to knife the dem ocratic party except for good reasons? (Here a prominent Irish politician) of Chicago, John Forsythe, shouted out from among tne audience an angry denial and the words yes and no were several times exchanged between him and Mr. Harrison.) Finally ordtr was restored and Mr. Harrison proceeded with bis speech and ended with the assurance that tbe nomination of Cleveland would help tbe dsmocrats to win Illinois next No vember. The nomination of seconded by Jones, of Minnesota. ORADY SHIES HIS CASTOR. T. F. Grady,of Now York,then came to the platform. The point of order was raised that unless Mr. Grady was going to second the nomination he was not now in order but the chairman overruled the point and said that as he recognized Mr. Grady that gentleman must be heard. Grady then proceeded to address the con vention. He said he should be glad to second Cleveland's nomination except that he knew tbat gentleman could not carry the state of New York, tbe sure and unerring test of that fact was fact that the last democratic conven tion of New York was equally divided against him and the delegates at large were divided between his friends and op ponents. He said that tbe object of the conven tion was to cake a nomination for the presidency that would be ratified by the people at the polls. He did not claim tbe Irish or catholics were against Mr. Cleve land but the anti-monopolist element of the state and labor interest of the state, catholic and protestant, Irish, German and American were opposed to his nom ination and would be opposed to his elec tion. 3Ir. Cleveland had been elected in '82 by a majority of 192,000, but the last election in that state showed a republican majority of 185,897. making a change of 211.000 in the democratic vote. Grady went on to discuss the veto of the eleva ted railway bill and to show how that veto was injurious to the working classes. He declared that the state of New York could not be carried by Mr. Cleveland, not because of any Irish question or of any catholic question but because of this anti-monopoly question on which the people had a deep seated feeling that no man could be worse to them in that re gard than Mr. Cleveland. He knew of but one occasion in which governor Cleveland was called upon to show his hand whether he was a democrat or something else and Mr Cleveland at that time proved to be something else. The democracy could carry New York for Thurman, Bayard, McDonald or Ran dall but not for Cleveland. Cochrane declared when asked to give the name of the candidate whose nomi nation he seconded that he would name a man who never could be called guilty of a single act favoring corporate institu tions a man who had never prostituted the executive power to veto bills that were conceded in the interest of labor a man whose hair had groWn white in the service of the country. (He meant Mr. Thurman, of Ohio, but he did not name him.) He appealed to the convention to to ratify the nomination of tbat grand old democrat, Allen G. Thurman, of Ohio. Motion to suspend tbe order of business and take a recess was made. Call of states was demanded, motion carried and at 6:15 convention adjourned until to morrow morning. BDTLER CORRESPONDENCE. The following was made public to day: NEW \ORK, July 7. B. F. Butler, Chicago—Your friends here advise you to bolt the convention if the monopolist,Cleveland is nominated.

THE FOURTH. The Impresssve ceremonies of Laying (lie Corner Stone of tlie North Dakota Insane Hospital. Oration by Hon. Johnson Nickeus and Oilier Exercises at the Court House in tue Afternoon. How it was Celebrated in Jamestown. The celebration of this gre..t American day commenced at midnight with the ringing of bells, tiring ot canuon anil every conceivable explosive capable of making a noise, sending up of sky rockets, building bonfires and a general hurrah with almost as much enthusiasm as if the Declaration of Independence had just been promulgated. This was kept up un til about four o'clock in the morning when a suddei^dash of rain drove tbe people indoors from off the streets and for the space of a few hours quiet reigned su preme over Jamestown with tbe exception of the occasional cannonading of heav en's artillery. At an early hour in the morning, not withstanding the threatening aspect ot the weather, the farmers with their families began to arrive in town and the city citizens who had taken a sl'gbt rest came to the front again and the streets soon presented a scene of lively bustle and activity. Flags were displayed from the stalls on the principal buildings and bunting was hung from the windows of stores and many private residences. The programme of the day was opened by the laying of the corner stone of tbe insane asylum by the Masonic Order, con sisting of the members of Jamestown Lodge and visitors assisted by tbe Knights Templar. The procession was formed in the Masonic hall and led by the James town cornet band, and commanded by marshal B. M. Hicks with Tony Klaus, Chas. Avis and I. C. Wade as aides, marched west on Main street to Fifth av enue, thence north to Front street, thence east to Fourth avenue, thence south to the court house where conveyances were in waiting to carry the members out to the insane asylum. The procession of teams out to the insane asylum was a half mile in length and the number of people that witnessed the ceremonies of laying the corner stone was fully five hundred, and of the most orderly character. The ceremonies were performed by Sir Knight R. E. Wallace, acting Grand Mas ter, Sir Knight, Rev. A. Buchanan, pas tor of the Episcopal church ot this city acting Grand Chaplain, A. A. Allen Mas ter of Jamestown Lodge, No. 19, and R. A. Bill Senior Warden, and G. McGregor, Junior Warden, with other subordinate officers. The ceremonies were perform* ed in a manner that elicited the compli ments of those who had witnessed such CMTFLFIOQLTB vat mIMV TMPNRU»I before. A light rain came on before the ceremonies were concluded and while re turning to the city most of the people were pretty thoroughly moistened. The articles deposited in the corner stone were as follows: Copies of the Jamestown papers, viz: The Daily and Weekly Alert. The Jamestown Daily and Weekly Capital. The Jamestown Pioneer, (German.) Copies of the Valley City Daily and W jekly Times. Copies of the Bismarck Daily papers. Copies ot the Fargo Republican and Daily Argus. Report of the Jamestown board of trade* Sundry business cards of Jamestown merchants. Impression of the seal of the North Daketa hospital. Programme of the Fourth of July cele. bration at Jamestown for 1884. Copies of Canadian newspapers. Muster role of G. A. R. of Jamestown New York newspapers dated 1819 and 1833 deposited by Geo. R. Tophff. Curious specimens of moulds found on the prairie among buffalo bones. Autographs of Sundry prominent citi zens of Jamestown. Birdseye view of the city of James town. "The born of Plenty." The following was adopted bv the board of commissioners after the ceremo nies had been performed The Board of Trustees of the iSorth Dakota Hospital for the Insane, return their sincere thanks to the Masonic order for rendering their beautiful and impres sive ceremonies and hearty participation in the laying of the corner stone in the building now being erected, also to the Odd Fellows and other societies who par* tlcipated in the same. Several communications and several addresses appropriate and interesting which would have added vory much to the interest of the *c(tasien were obliged to be deferred owing to the rain. Also return their thanks to A. A. Whit more and assistants for services rendered in preparing the platform and decorated arch and assisting in handling tbe stone. By order of the Board, F. JONES, Secretary. THE AFTERNOON PROGRAMME. As previously arranged the oration of the day and various amusements were to have taken place in Klaus' park, but on account of the rain the oration and other attendant exercise were appointed at the court bouse for two o'clock in tbe after noon, at which tin the Knights Templar and members of Jamestown Lodge march ed to that place in a body and the court mm was soon crowded with people. Mayor Lloyd being absent Hon. D. M. Kelleher, acting mayor, presided and in troduced the exeicises as follows: First—Prayer by Rev. A. Buchanan. Second—Music by the band, Which, by the way, furnished splendid music throughout the exercises of the day. Third—Reading of tbe Declaration of Independence, that immortal instrument which is old, yet ever new, by Prof. C. H. Clemmer, superintendent of the Jamestown public schools. Fourth—Oration of tbe day by Hon. Johnson Nickeus, member of the territo rial council trom this legislative district. Mr. Nickeus has a wide extended and en viable reputation as an orator, and bis oration on this occasion more than met the high expectations of the people. At the conclusion of the exercises at the court house the procession was form ed and line of march taken lor Klaus' park, but the raiu had made tbat usually pleasant place too uncomfortable for pic nic purposes and soon after arriving there the company broke up, some re turning to the city to their homes and other places of amusement, but still quite a number remaining at the park for such amusement as they might improvise The remainder of tbe day was occupied with various kinds of amusements. Up on the whole the day was thoroughly celebrated and all seemed to enjoy them selves. Very little rowdyism was dis played during the day and no accidents occurred to saddeu the festivities of tbe occasion. The train came down from Carrington early in the morning, bring ing quite a number from different points up the branch, who remained until half past six in the evening when tbe train returned. Notwithstanding the unpro* pitious weather which brought occasional light showers of rain until late in the af ternoon, the day was more thoroughly and gloriously celebrated than on any previous anniversary or the iay ever lie fore in tbe iiistory of Jamestomn. TO THE PUBLIC. As a matter of right and justice tea Brother Mason, I wish to state that the late unpleasant difficulty between Mr. McCiure, of the Alert, and myself is at an end. I have not worked against him as has been stated, anil as to his solicita tions among the business public in order to sustain his paper it was none of my business. I may have misrepresented his motives] in asking me to tell that the office would be closed, etc., as my authority was second handed. 1 would not have mentioned it had 1 taken a second thought, as 1 have entertained no desire to injure him or his paper in any way. The business of both papers being trans acted at my office it is my duty to treat both alike and I hope this little city tbat daily receives compliment* of passers by abd that has a bright future in prospect with abundant harvest, will ably, sustain both vA»ers which have certainly shown much enterprise for anew country. July 5th. 1884. :f Respectfully, A. P. PRIOHAIID: To A. F. Frlchard and tbe Public. If we had never felt a warm feeling of friendship for Mr. Prichard we certainly do now, and can but admire him for his honesty and the true manhood he dis plays in making the above candid state ment. It takes away every feeling that may bave temporarily existed in conse quence of our misunderstanding. MARSHALL MCCI-URK. Assessed Valuation. County assessor T. S.

I hope you will take the matter in hand promptly and see tbat tbe collection is made in the following order as they mature: [See special circular for directions in regard to bundling, curing and packing.] FIRST—Grasses of all kinds, especially timothy, clover, Hungarian and millet. SECOND—Wild and tame fruit, by dry ing And alcohol. THIRD—Barley, rve, wheat and oats in bundles and threshed. FOURTH—Buckwheat, sorghum and corn. FIFJ.II—Vegetables. each in its season. Very Reap sctfully, ALEXANDER MCKENZIE, U. S. Commissioner for Dakota Ter ritory. Those who have harvesting te do and have not seen the New Walter A. Wood machine, will find themselves well paid for the lew minutes spent in examining it. One especially interesting feature of the machine is the really light, cheap and satisfaetory bundle carrier. It saves the labor of one man and leaves the ground clear of all scatterings. On these two counts it ought to pay for itself and save enough grain to pay for the thresh ing. Moreover it leaves tbe shocks in just the right order for loading two at every stop. Numerous other points about the machine are just as excelleut, and altogether, it shows more really good points than any other examined this sea son. The knotter is so simple and so perfect in Us workiug that one wants to SM it tie still another and another knot. Who buys a Wood machine this year will certainly get a good machine. 47 1m To Contractor*.
