The Waco delegation is divided on the
question of inserting a commission plank
in the platform, but it is believed a
large majority favor a commission
plank. The fact that
resolution instructing the delegation WAS
offered in the county convention but not
passed is urged by those who oppose
the plank as an expression of dIsap-
prevail. The truth Is the resolution was
never placed before the convention. It
was read in connection with one iDdors-
of one or two delegates in the convention
1t was Withdrawn or stricken out OF the
resolution read. Several members of the
convention objected 10 this, but as the
motion to adopt had not been stated
from the chair the mover had right to
withdraw that part of his resolution, at
least tn was the view taken OF it. All
believe the fight on the commission plank
will be the only fight made in The CON-
vention.
