manuscript.
After a time the Convention
shook itself up, when it was dis
covered that Capt. Glove was
occupying Gov. Keno's chair,
evidently his intention being to
hold the chair when he was n t
spe eaking, and thus keep himself
before the Convention. He fin
ally got up and invited the Gov
ernor to be seated, and retiring
to the back of the hall, so his
voice would have the longest
throw, said, 81 second that mo-
ton"
The kids held hurried consultation
In the meantime the Secretary was point
ing out the post-office men and giving the
Chair pointers.
Vickers took the floor, and in the great
est effort OF his life, said that he did not
withdraw his remarks, but withdrew Bob
Price. The point evidently being that Vic
thought more of his remarks than he did
of his candidate.
A BUG UNDER THE CHIP.
Nominations for Clerk were called.
DIR. DeSteiguer moved that no nomina-
tions be made for this office, arguing that
if the Republicans wished to be successful
they must concentrate on one or two men.
Lloyd Myers vigorously objected to this.
He wanted a full ticket nominated. He
did not see that it helped the Republican n
party to elect one man. He wanted the
party to keep in line. He wanted the
ranks solid. He wanted full tlcKet ana
a full Republican vote.
The irrepressible Keno sided with Ny
ers. He did not want any side show, did
not want the party to be run for one man.
He wanted a full ticket and a solid Repub-
lican vote.
DIR. DeSteiguer asked, tHow often have
you elected a full ticket 2" Afler further
wrangling, the question on making full
ticket was adopted.
DR.. DeSteiger nominated Lloyd Myers
Myers objected. Said he wanted good
man put OIL the ticket and elected. There
is nothing accomplished by electing one
man on the ticket. DeSteiguer, can't you
think then of some good man?
Squire Rooy-I nominate w. F. Case.
This at once put Lloyd to thinking for
good man, and he named Andrew Foller.
Mr.. Case said he declined and didn't
want any Office of any kind.
Foller was nominated by acclamation.
Eli West was announced by Vickers and
seconded by Glove, and nominated with
out opposition.
Glove announce ed the name of J. d.
for Commissioner, and with
out giving Uncle John WeltDer, who had
his name in the uaper as a can
didate, a chance, the nomi nation of Long
streth was rushed through. Mr.. Weltner
will bolt the onvention.
Lloyd Myers announced.the name OF J.
C. Allison for Infirmary Director. and he
was nominated by acclamatioh.
A wrangle then ensued over the appoint |
ment of delegates to Congressional Con-
yention. Vickers wanted them selected
by the Convention; Glove wanted them
chosen by the Central Committee. In dis |
,ussing this, Glove salds he discovered |
ring in this town that wanted 10 run things |
and that side issues (meaning the post |
office) was run into the Convention.
DIR. DeSteiguer, Myers and Vickers dis |
claimed knowing anything about side Is |
sues of post-office.
Vickers presented the following list of
which on vote of % to IA, were
chosen: e. w. Glove, DR.. DeSteiguer, w |
=. Case, Aaron Mosure, Ned Work, Joshua
Jackson, D. Booth.
Keno then asked that three cheers be
,iven for Blame, the man who says he eput
l2 500 into a pool to organize the Syndi-
ate, and the Convention adjourhed-a
,nife in Eli Vests fifth rib, Glove and the
moss backs beaten and the kids and Lo-
an Ring on top.
