AN AMES RESOLUTION.
The appointment of committee to pre-
sent list of delegates was then moved by
John Dowlan. Before any action was
taken Il. q. Mackay arose and said he had
a resolution to instruct the delegates for
Ames, and he would have it filed imme
diately. He held up folded piece of legal
cap which contained the following, and
which Nr. Mackay omitted to read:
Resolved, That the delegates to the state
convention be instructed to vote as unit for
Hon. A. A. Ames for governor, so long as
there is any hope for his nomination.
TSigned r. G. MAcKAY.
P. Ii. Kelly, who had been admitted to the
convention as proxy for Patrick Kelly, Jr.,
jumped up from the foremost row Of chairs
and said:
Mr.. Chairman, think this is a little out of
order. The first thing is to make the tempo
rary organization permanent.
Instantly there were heard about dozen
whispers all over the house: Make a
motion to make it permanent, Pat"
Mr.. Kelly-T move to have the temporary
organization made permanent"
The motion was then carried and Mr..
Dowian renewed his motion for committee
to present state delegates. which was car
ried. Judge Wood moved the appointment
of similar committee for congressional
delegates. Again Il. G. Mackay got up
and wanted his resolution 'lled." Said
he: Il want it to be put on record"
James KingI object to any instructions.
K. q. Mackay and j. c. Hanley-Our dele
cation is for Ames for governor.
Mr.. King-All right, there is no difference
between US then. The delegates don't need
instructions.
Mr.. Mackay-Well, I'd like to have this
resolution placed on file now, Mr.. Chairman.
E. H. Wood-It seems to me that it would
be the proper time to present the resolution
when the committee has been appointed.
]. G. Hanley-I think this is the proper time
to put the resolution.
Mr.. Mackay-I insist upon the filing of this
resolution.
Here he was Kissed from several drec-
lions. He continued:
II could be Kissed, but 1 would speak,"
E. Fl. WOOd-There is no obj ection to the
gentleman having his resolution filed.
This was permitted and MI. Mackay ad.
vanced forward and put the resolution upon
the table. where it lay harmlessIy through
out the rest Of the proceedings.
