Owing TO a misunderstanding Sat
turday morning rs to where the
democratic convention was to meet,
there was delay in commencing
the business for which it was con-
vened.
Chairman Hogan, of the county
central committee, and about thirty
of the delegates went over the river
to the courthouse, and the remain
der of the convention--aboutn ninety
strong-met at Concordia hall.
Word was sent to the courthouse
that the majority of the members
might be found at the hall, and
there followed n period of waiting
for the rear guard to put In an APP
pearance.
One of the delegates explained as
half past 10 o'clock passed and the
tardiness of the delegates was COM
mented on: "Wcll, you know the
democrats are always behind hand
in this country"
This, however, failed to bring the
consolation that it was intended to
convey, and feeling of relief was
experienced when at 10:45 Chairman
Hogan and the other "walking" del
gates came, and the convention was
called to order.
Chairman Hogan read the call for
tiic CoiiNcitioH, III Whiph ~ Noo
stated that the purpose was to nom
mate candidates for the county OFF,
ces, and for the legislature.
Mr.. Hogan also stated in ex-
planation of his long delay that the
call for the convention named the
courthouse as the place of meeting,
and not until last night was IL
changed to Concordia hall. and that
he and some of the delegates had no
knowledge of the change until the
telephone message reached the court
house after their arrival there in the
morning.
Nominations for temporary chair
man were declared in order, and Mr..
j. NJ. Buckley was nominated and
elected to that office.
In II short speech Mr.. Buckley
thanked the convention for the
honor conferred, and expressed the
wish that as democrats were always
in favor of harmony and allowing
the majority to rule, he hoped that
this feeling would govern the con-
vention and that an harmonious
session would be held.
