and long O'Teuscher. His doom
had been written in the book O
Brooks, and although a majority
of the delegates had promised tt
support him, the young states
man from Cork did not appear al
a candidate in Convention. The
falsity of Republican delegates il
here presented, and it is fittins
time, while poor Vic Is on the
cooling board, to shed some tears
before giving an official report o1
the convention.
During the morning hours
President Culver was industriou:
in "seeing" the country delegate
Mr.. Jackson, of Ward, had un.
questionably a majority of the
delegates in his favor; but Joshua
was called to the Peoples Bank
on ''business," and Joshua was
seen no more in the congregation
of Gibeon, which is the Opera
House.
THE CONVENTION.
At 10 o'clock the doors of the
hall were opened and Vic Teusch-
er, Gen Wolf and Lieut.. I'VE in
sert on correct titles, Lieutenant
Davenport nailed against the
back of chairs, printed placards,
showing where the delegates,
most of whom had never been in
an Opera House before, should
take seats. The plan was con-
ceived by Wes McClintock, who
has a true conception of the old
grannies called to carry out his
purpose, and show the necessity
of "bunching them up" SO to
speak, SO as to be able to count
them wien sol | out on the plan
of the Sands schedule.
Mcdonald calle.i the meeting
to order and Frank Rochester,
the Hoadly connecting link in
Sands Rempel arrangement, act
ed as Secretary.
Joshua Jackson was named as
Temporary Chairman. Mr.. Jack
son was not in convention, and
after about half an hour waiting,
Mcdonald announced that he
was informed that MIR. Jackson
would not serve.
The old gentleman was too
smart to be played in that kind
of game.
During the lull. Gus Culver
took Teuscher off to one side and
gave him a talk. Then Bright
followed and gave Vic more Ad-
vice. Then Vic withdrew from
the hall and s'drew the curtains
round him" and got on the cool
ing board. Bright had promised
to announce Vic IN one of his
''spell bounding speeches. A
young man from Washington,
named Price. was made Secre-
tary. Gen. Wolf of New York,
then nominated John Harper for
temporary Chairman. DR.. De-
Steiger nominated Wes McClin-
tock assistant Secretary. Wes
got up, and with his head to one
side and his finger in his mouth,
like a tashful school girl, Uttered
and said won't consent, I'm not
recognized, am not a delegate"
Some one in the room yelled out,
''git up there, you're wanted. -
And Wes got up there. Then a
call was made for committees.
DR.. DeSteiger moved a COM
mittee of one from each ward.
township and precinct on creden-
tials. which vas appointed.
The Doctor then called the
committee to follow him, and
then the promenade commenced.
He led them up on the stage,
then behind the curtains. then to
The dressing rooms, and finally
down the hall ont. and to the
nearest woods, for all we know.
as the committee never again ap-
peared in convention.
The withdrawal of this COM
mittee almost depopnlated the
hall, not more than a dozen re-
To avoid a complete
abandonment. Bright movedi THE
of committees of
three on the several other COM
mittees, which was done, and the
convention adjourned.
We looked for Teuscher. but
could not find him.
The afternoon session was a
lame affair. 1t simply was held
to nominate Bob Keynes on the
order of Rempel and the plan of
Alex Sands. It was done to the
Queens taste, &c.
The order was made that nom-
nations be made from townships
and wards, when the wards and
owhships were called. 1t was
n this where Herr Mogglentog,
he German diplomat showed
Why he got up there as Secre
ary.
When Falls township was called,
JUS Culver got up and read long
