Z Veen brought by special trains
from the mountains, but the day was
by no means hot, and the only effect
of the snow was the' novelty of un
icy street scene In July.
The apparent conveniences, facili
ties and architectural fitness of the
new auditorium for convention pur
poses was remarked by practically
every delegate who filed In. ' The
doors of the convention hall were
opened at 11:10, and It began to fill
immediately, the bund playing a med
ley. 1 Chairman Taggart ascended the
rostrum shortly before noon. The
band was playing "Dixie," und there
was great cheering. While Taggart
was striving to bring the convention
to order a party bearing banners and
Itryan's portrait came In, causing
loud cheering. '
After all delegations were seated

Denver. July 7. Temporary Chair-1 y"
man Hell, of the national Democratic
convention, spoke as follows upon as
suming the gavel:
"We have assembled at a time
when tile public ronsclenre Is de
manding honesty of purpose lie tbe
men who undertake to direct the al
f.iirs of state. Tile publte eye is
Keenly sensitive to tvery politiral
.noveuiciil, and our proceedings ben1
a ill be approved acronling o the
legree of sincerity apparing In the
work of this convention. There is a
. uiespread belief, founded upon evi
leuee of a convincing character, that
.he party in power has not been true
;o its trust, that It has betrayed the
-"!umuu interests into the hands of
;he enemies of good government.
:hi'reby forfeiting Its right and des
tr. lying Its ability to rule in the name
of the people.
"Apparent to everyone Is the fact
that way down In the heart of the
republican convention at Chicago
there was a feeling of anger und re
sentment over the popular clamor
for reforms; and it Is equally patent
that there is no bona fide intention
on the part of the republican party
of granting the reforms, If the ma
chinery of that party can be retained
In present hands. Its paper platform,
divided like ancient Gaul Into three
parts barren promises, make-shifts
and evasions It Is hoped will make
a good campaign transparency; but
no one seriously believes that the re
publican party really endorses that
neutral manuscript which held the
convention togtehcr until It could
ratify the nomination of a presi
dential candidate.
"Approaching our great task In
a manly, dignified manner. Imbued
with the loftiest sentiments of pa
triotism, ambitious to throw every
safeguard around the liberties of our
people, determined to Btnmp out the
abuses that are consuming' the sub
stance of the nation, let us proceed
to our appointed duty with the sus
taining consciousness that we are
responsible alone to God and to our
country for the Justine of our cuuse.
"There are three things that this
convention should do. It ought to
present. In a plain and Intelligible
manner the serious industrial and
political conditions that are disturb
ing the peace and happiness of our
country. We should then proceed
to n courageous exposure of the re
publican policies that are co-operating
with private greed In the gen
eral oppression of the people. Most
Important of all, we must, exhibit u
readiness and an ability to grasp
the problems of this hour and to efr
feci their solution In a manner that
will sntisfy the sober, sense of the
multitudes whose interests are ut
stake.
"Among the great evils that af
flict the country at the present time
Is tho business of corporate power.
At first the advancing aggressions of
the corporations are not discernible
to tho common eye, for every move
Is carefully covered up until, suffi
cient political strength is attained to
defy the protests of the people. Thus
the constant and Insidious Invasion
of the people's rights finally results
In a species of nrrngnnce and de
fiance so formidable In Its appear
ance that the body of the people, In
fear of even worse aggressions, hes
itate to assert and exercise their
rightful authority over these colossul
enemies of the commonwealth. And
so we behold a subversion of our free
institutions, voluntarily subordinat
ing Itself to selfish private ends, spe
cial privileges, resorting to cunning.
bribery, and Inllmldatlon to mululaln
Its unholy power, while the masses
timidly hope that when avarice has
at last reached t Ik point of satiety
it will then benevolently permit the
people to resume their rightful share
In the government of themselves.
Whenever the milt terlngs of the peo
ple heroine too t lireutenlng tile, cry
of confiscation goes up and appeals
are frantically made to the sacred
rights of property. This is Intended
to affright the cars of honest men In
the enjoyment of the fruits of their
Industry und thrift and by thus play
ing upon I heir prejudiced and fears
to defer lliem from casting their in
fluence upon the side of wholesome
reforms. Tile cry of confiscation Is
the historic defense' of usiii-pal ion.
I.et Hie people Hike warning. Wh"ii
ever Hie wrongs of t'ldny le'rom- the
rights of tonioi;row the nation is In
deiidly peril.
"The d"mucr;illr parfy Is no: the
enemy of property; hut to the con
trary, It has always slnod, and will
continue to stand, firmly against
very species of aggression that
would dislry or weaken the right of
any mail to enjoy the rewards to
which his patience, his skill, his in
dustry and his economy entitle lilin.
Our parly approves that feeling of
prld" which always, accompanies the
possession of property and it com
mends an Individual ownership in

Against thi' evils of specliil privi
li't'i' we urge the benefits of e(iial op-
poriunlty in order that Ihe.re may
lie more land owners, more homes
and more happiness among l:e

ognlzes their great value in the in
dustrial world. Through the agency
of corporations scattered wealth Is
brought together and given a driv
ing force that It would not otherwise
possess. Great enterprises are there
by undertaken itnd the undeveloped
resources of the country added to the
wealth of the world. Our party is
not opposed to production on a large
scale, but Is unalterably opposed, to.
monopoly In production. It is easier
Uy prevent monopoly than it is to con

away the meat upon which the trusts
are Ted. If this be followed by crim

directors und officers of the guilty
corporation, monopoly will be shorn
of many of Its terrors." ,

no foundation In fact. It is the
abuse of corporate power that we
seek to eliminate.
"Viewed In the light ef a great
moral question, the control of cor

of common concern rather than a
political one; hut the shameful com
placence of the republican party in
permitting its forces to be controlled
