Hon. johnson Sherrick stated that Mr'
| Welty represented Mr.. Campbell and Mr.
| Monnot MIR. Neal. He didn't care to dis
cuss the question, but desired that oil un'
| derstand now they are voting.
A lively discussion followed, IN wnlcn
| Messrs. A. McGregor and John Mcbride
| spoke, Chairman Welty appointed Sena-
| tor Howells and DR.. Conklln as tellers.
Chairman Welty addressed tue conven-
ton briefly, saying he considered bis
selection compliment to Gov. Campbell
more than to himself.
r. S, Hathaway, city editor of the
Ews-DEMoCRAT, was unanimously elect
ed secretary.
Chairman Welty named the following
gentlemen as the committee to select der
epates to the State Convention. Gen.
Isaac r, Sherwood, Charles Krichbaum,
Andrew Pontius, Joseph Oberlin and Mat
Early.
There was great deal Of talk, as Mr..
John McGregor, who made the molon,
was not appointed on the committee
Senator HoWells appealed from the action
of the chair, and vote was taken. The
chair was sustained by large majority.
The convention was certainly victory
for the Campbell men.
Allen Cook moved that committee OF
three be appointed to draft resolutions.
The motion was amended so as To make
five Democratic editors in Stark county
the committee. The amendment was lost,
as there are not five Democratic editors
in the county. The chair then appointed
Messrs. Isaac Harter, Frank Shepley and
j. G. Divine on the committee.
During the convention there was some
disturbance and great deal OF talking.
Many points of order we're raised but few
of them considered we'll taken. Chairman
Welty presided in an aole manner and
gave general satisfaction. Regarding the
talk there was little ill feeling, but when
the convention at Cleveland djourns very
little of it will be heard of.
