LUCAS MAKES AN OFFER.

At this juncture, Lucas, who had during
the entire Convention sat among the dele.
gates from his own county, got up and said
he had proposition to make to
the Convention. 1t was, he de-
clared, in the interests Of harmony.
He would withdraw if Hose would.
This was met with Storm Of "uoes;"
Sprigg opposed consideration OF 4he prop
osition, and declared that either uoge or
Lucas would be elected whichever was
nominated. Dent replied to Woods re.
marks against his resolution with evident
effect, and this brought Prosecuting Attor.
ney Daily, OF Keyser, TO his feet. Daily
said that this very proposition was before
the Committee OIL Resolutions and was re.
jected; that it hnd come from the Lucas side
oithe house, which opposedruttineanythiug
in the platform about the tariff and rev.
euue, because the Democrats were divided
on the subject, and it would not, therefore,
be expedient TO make n deiivcratce on it.
Daily declared that it was Democratic
votes that passed the bill over the Prcsi-
dents veto, and the Democratic party was
as much divided on the subject OF appro-
pria,ions for works OF internal improve
ment us it was on the tariff. West
Virginia pays as much into the treasury rs
any other State Of equal population, and
why should she not get something back :?
"Shall we stand by and sec ourselves
robbed ?" he asked, aud the convention
answered the question and noticed the slip
by II howl Of laughter.

SENATOR SMITH FACES THE MUSIC.

Senator Fontaine Smith regretted that
the resolution had been Introduced, but
being before them he said they would have
to face the music. He said that he had,
though Democrat, favored some appro.
priations for internal improvements,
though his party was, in theory al lt,tsi, op.
posed 10 them. Smith emphasized the
foregoing by broad grin and Il pause, and
the Convention "causht on" and save Il
storm OF laughter
Capt. Chipley. OF Hardy, said he agreed
with II previous speaker who WAS opposed
to condemnation now, but was willing to
condemn to take effect from tomorrow.
No rebuke to-day; some other day. Again
the 1Iogc men thought it prudent 10 have
the elephant brought ont. Smith aud
other such fellows had talked so much
about the principles Of the Democratic
party that the delegates Ind got into q state
Of mind that might be called half.beliei
that such things really existed. And so
the oily dispenser OF soothing syrup from
Barbour rot up and told the bowling mol,
that it wasn't 50, that whereas the party
used to haze such MI article, in the days OF
their forefathers, now they didn't; aud on
none Of the questions could Democrats
point 10 Republicans and say, "thou did'st
it." The record was against them.

KEYsER, August 12.-The convention re-
assembled At o;95 this morning, At the
caucuses last night tho Lucas men and
lIoge followers each determined to stand
firm. Judge Cotran, on taking tho cliair,
called for the report Of the Committee on
Resolutions, which was ns follows: st

ond Congressional District OF West Vir.
ginia liail with pleasure tho indications OF
IL revival OF tho JeiIorsoniun conservative
Democracy, with its adherence 10 the
original principles Of civil liberty aus cstab.
lished by our iorefathers. We demand II
strict construction OF the Constitution OF
the United Suites; economy In the ex.
pen1itnrcs of tlIe government thereof;
simplicity in lis administration; capacity
and fidelity in officials and responsibility
of monopolics and corporations to, and
their regulation by, legislative authority.
And we nrrnign tho Republican party for
its many and great violations OF these prin.
ciples, iu its disregard OF the Constitution;
in its assumption OF powers belonging 10
tho States; and in its reckless extravaganza
in the expenditure OF the public money"
a BOOMERANG. 55. g9C
NJ. II. Dent offered the following as m
additional resolution:
= Rcsolrea, That our representative Con.
grcss, for voting for tho passage OF the SO.
called River and Ilarbor bill over the
Presidents veto, deserves hearty rcbuke
at the hands OF his constituents"
This produced Il sensation, and tho most
intense excitement prevailed, while Dent,
in really eloquent nhd highly impass.
ioned speech, advocated the adoption OF
his resolution. He declared he could not
come out and reb,tke the Salary Grab, the
Credit Mobilier, or the Star Route steal,
unless he first cleared his skirts Of tllnt
greatest OF all steals, the River and llarbor
divide" lie spoke ut great length and
held the attention Of the convention
throughout, saying that he hoped that this
convention would put its veto alongside of
the Presidents. Dent was loudly cheered
and frequently applauded; and SO evident
was it that he had made u considerable
impression, that the IIoge followers put
forward their biggest gun, Sam Woods,
who hoped that the passions ol yesterday
after nights rest hnd subsidized, and that
this "almost angry convention would
meet this morning in agood hunor lie
characterized Dents resolution rs All apple
Of discord, and appealed for harmony.

The daily Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1878-1???, 1882-09-28


Most every one in Washington knows
Judge Pat Halves, of Nebraska. The
Judge is genial, pleasant fellow, and,
though having worn for years the iu-
dicial ermine, is not a whit like the av-
erage jurist-stern, stoid and indifler-
emit On the contrary he is, to use a
common phrase, zone of the boys
One day last week the Judge, by way of
escaping the heat of the city, hied him
to Ocean City, where he INDUCED in
saltwater baths to his hearts content.
The second day after his arrival he put
on his handsome spanged bathing suit,
and was the object of admiration of all
the other bathers. He cavorted around
in the water with the agility of a cat,
and many complimentary remarks were
made about the judges excellent swim
ming qualities. Two or three gentle
men whom the judge knew were ''duck-
ed" by him, and they all took it good
naturedly. Bye-and-bye, the Judge
espied handsome lady who would bal
ance the scales at 1870. Going gently
up behind her he caught the lady around
the waist, and with tremendous effort
throw her half somersault The lady
remained under the water about half n
minute. When she came up and had
wiped the water from her eyes she turn
ed toward the Judge and poured tor
rent of abuse upon him. The Judge
apologized the best he could and walk
ed away. He had gone over near his
male friends, who had stood off for
some distance Witnessing the circus bus
mess between the fat lady and the Judge,
when another gentleman came up, and
tapping the eminent jurist on the should
er said:
"Sir you duckcd that lady over
there"
yes, sir" said Judge Halves, Il
did,
But said the gentleman, edo you
know here's
mo, indeed, never saw her in my
life" responded Judge liawcs
don't you think You assumed a
great deal in catching hold of lady
whom YOU never sawP'
at never occurred to me that had
committed an indiscreton. | saw the
other fellows ducking the girls, and |
thought would follow suit quickly
spoke upthe man whose judicial crmine
had never been spoiled,
Sir eNciledly said the gentleman,
you owe that lady an apology
81 just apologized to her. said the
Judge, "but she wouldn't accept it,"
Then YOU owe me an apology"
"All right" said the Judge, II most
humbly ask the pardon of both you and
your lady friend, but I'm n Westerner
and I'll be hanged if knew anything
about your salt water etiquette" saying
which the party broke up, all hands be-
ing apparently satisfied. - Washington
