would select as Blaine's associate on the
Presidential ticket, Everybody seemed TO
be in good humor and ready to
make the most of every incident from which
apv amusement could be derived The monotOny
of the preliminary proceedings was greatly eniyen-
ed by the performances of Postmaster Conger, OF
Washington, who has made himself the butt of the
convention by his peculiar and rude behavior.
He il of the two delegates from the
District of Columbia and his associate is black
man named Carson. Conger was for Arthur, OF
course, and Carson was for Blaine. Con-
ger is smart and not over-modest, so he
elected himself chairman of the delegation
and also assigned himself to duty as a member
of the Committee ON Credentials. and caused open
hostilities between the two men, During the bal
loting Carson insisted on casting his own vote
every time When the president of the convention
tonight requested the District Of Columbia to fur

Committee, Carson promptly rose and reported the
