longing to another committee, when
Messrs. Gutsch and Hiemenz were allowed
to sit In this committee all along while they
were members OF the Fiey city committee
at the same time. They had more to say
than anybody, too. Mr.. Buckley he Id that
no member was eligible who held public
Office or failed to comply with the terms OF
the call. Mr.. Busche belonged TO another
committee and that settled it. There was
no use whipping the devil around the
stump. Could man Join church to-day

should not be tolerated. Mr.. Rapp said
the objection was no good, because the
committee OF twenty eight was not a rival
central committee. Mr.. Kinsky said they
claimed to be Silk Stocking Committee,
and this brought him under the ban. Mr..
Tandy said he couldn't straddle two horses
and had no use for man that could. He
had been offered seat In the Filley Com
mittee, but refused to become double.
barreled statesman. Mr.. Ramsey said this
committee was organized for political ends,
and no member should be permitted to sit
in il il he did not indOrse those objects.
Mr.. Busche seemed to be riding two
horses. Mr.. Kinsky, In the middle Of this
last speech, electrified the committee by
shouting at Mr.. Pins, who sat next to him
and was In very hilarious state, that he
wanted him to keep still . or he'd have
him put out. Mr.. Pins was not at all ex.
tinguished, and he kept interpoating ir-
reyalent remarks through the balance OF
the meeting 10 the great discomfort Of Mr..
kinsky, who grew more nervous as the
great battle progressed. To settle the
pending question, Mr.. Brindle stood Mr..
Busche up and asked:
"Mr. Busche, are you Republican,
''lt any one doubts it I'd like to have
him step fol ward.o
"Answer me, yes or no. -
"Why, undoubtedly
Mr.. Brindle held that that settled it, and
Mr.. Busche should be admitted. Mr..
Buckley held altogether different. Mr..
Busche had signed the call for harmony"
dodge and had refused to act with this
committee at tn e last meeting.
II did not refuse. - said Mr.. Busche.
"You did refuse" replied Mr. Buckley,
glowering over the diminutive Busche.
Hostilities might have been inaugurated
had not Mr.. Wolf come ir just at this time
like a cyclone, and insisted on everybody
telling him "what was up He was so
persistent and aggressive in his inquiries as
to completely break the thread OF the
discourse. He was finally posted on
the question before the house, and the
discussion was resumed. Mr. Pins para.
lyzed the assemblage with fierce demand to
know "who made the laws, anyhowD The
question was not pertinent, and the chair
finally disposed Of 1t with ''that was done
before your time and ours, Mr.. Pins. -
Mr.. Pms SAID that II that was the case he
moved Mr.. Busche be accepted. Mr..
Taudy asked II Mr.. Busche would sub.
scribe to the principles of the committee.
He replied that he would, as he understood
them. Mr.. Buckley became very indignant
at this, and produced circular from Mr..
Fley, which, he said, was lie on the
face OF 1t, inasmuch az it alleged that the
silk Stockings had Endorsed the "harmony
swinde" Of the committee OF %. This, he
said was an effort to steal this commit
tees thunder. II aimed to put the party
back into the vassalage for which it was
EN- lncipated by the revolution Of 1882.
Now, Mr.. Busche has signed this ''all for
harmony" swindle, and he could not sit in
this committee.
Mr.. Wolff pronounce that as a lie, Mr..
Chairman.
"Mr. Bulkey-You pronounce thi;
statement in the Flley circular as lie, you
mean.
Mr. Wolff-Of course, that's what ]
mean.
Mr. Bulkley-Woll, said that some lime
ago.
Mr.. Berger declared this Ian yuage all out

Mr.. Buckley ever dared be, and when

Mr.. Bulkley now moved to 60 into exc.
cutive session, and despite the protest OF
Mr.. Pins the motion carried and all proxies
and the Post Dispatch man were put out.
The proxies were then called Ia from the
hall one by one, and catechised As to the
quality OF their stockings. They were un.
mercitully guyed, Messrs. Buckley, Kinsky
and Kirby acting as the main guys. Mar.

and announced the result to the waiting
crowd, then moved down stairs. A mo.

with the remark that he was
on the war path, dashed down
stairs, brushing back his hair as he ran.
