Llenver, July 8.—Al I p. ni. the
sub-committee of the committee on
resolutions of the Democratic nation­
al convention, which since early last
evening has been wrestling with tbe
platform, had passed finally upon
only one plank, that relating to tbe
publicity of campaign contributions,
it was believed at that hour that the
sub committee would not be able to
report to the full committee until 10
10 o'clock tonight.
The full committee is under ad­
journment, taken early this morning,
to meet at 5 this evening, to hear the
report of th« suit-committee
When
tbe hour ot I o'clock was reached
It was decided to refer to a sub-com­
mittee of the sub-committee various
subjects for separate consld« ration.
The Injunction question, together
with kindred
labor
subjects, was
placed In the hands ot George Fred
Williams, of Massachusetts, ex-Judge
Parker, of New York, and J. B. Sul­
livan, of Iowa.
The subject of the tariff was re­
ferred to Pettigrew, of North Dakota,
Brown, of Nebraska, and AlBchuler,
of Illinois.
Newlands, of Nevada, was placed at
the head of a sub-committee to for­
mulate a plank on the conservation
of the national resources of the coun­

Senator Gore, of Oklahoma, was
called to the platform for a speech
and when the blind senator was es­
corted to the platform there were
cheers.
He declared that Oklahoma
was the most Democratic state in the
union ( Cheers! and said:

advice of Bryan.”
