that there was no use mincing matters at all the
action of the Chair in the appointment of the fifteen
TO the committee disgraceful in character and
had done the Chair and the committee dishonor. IL
anything would tend TO defeat the Republican party
| It was just such acts as hat. The Convention bad
responded to the effort made to defeat the com
bnations and rings OF the old committee, and tho
defeat Of the committee had been signal.
But now comes the Chairman, in whom all had con.
fded, and he undoes all the good work. lCries Of
order, and What do you mean2"t ''You all
know what l mean. You know it, Mr. President.
We've been trying TO clean out this committee, and
you have thwarted the expressed will OF the Con
ventiou so recently made manifest" When the

the act Of the Chair shameful, and declared that

Committee.
The Chair said he would be glad il the Convention
would review the appointments 1t was hard TO
