FARWELL'S REVENGE.

The Ex-senator Makes Benjamin
t Very Mad.
WAsHINGToN, July 4.-That ex-Sena-
tor Farwell is still alive and takes an
interest in politics was proven Saturday,
when in the columns of the Post was
found the following letter:
Editor of the Post: l see by the newspa-
perS this morning that at the urgent solicita-
lion of the president of the United States one
William james Campbell, of Illinois, has
been made chairman of the national Re-
publican committee
Some three years ago, more or less, while I
was in the senate of the United States rec
commended gentleman by the name of Will
lam j. Campbell for the office of collector of
customs at Chicago. All the Republican

president said that he was a professional
lobbyist and unfit for the position, and that
he would not appoint him.
Will you be Kind enough to inform me
whether the Campbell appointed chairman
of the national committee Cat the urgent re-
quest of the presidenD is the same Campbell
whom he refused to appoint 10 federal
. position because he was a professional
lobbyist and unfit for it,
Chicago, June % G. B. FARwELL.
The letter caused strong feeling at the
White House. The president will not
be interviewed on the subject, but
several who called OH him say that he
is in anything but pleasant mood. 1t
has angered him more than anything
that has been said or written since the
convention.

world. He was not one of those who
believed that the republic was in dam
ger, SO long as the people existed. He
congratulated them on the harmony
that prevailed. There were no states
fixed up for the conventions; the nomi-
nee would be the choice of the people,
and not the choice of the machine ele-
ment.
The speaker then launched out into
disparagement of the Gresham boom,
and eulogy of that of Gen. Weaver,
without, however, mentioning names.
He said that they must have a
candidate who would stand fair
and square upon the platform.
who would burn all his bridges
behind him-a man who had already
been weighed in the Peoples party
balance and had not been found want
ing. 1t had been said that they must
not select one of the old guard. because,
fOrSooth, he had been greenbacker in
times past. Did the Republicans or
Democrats drive their old leaders to the
rear in this manner? Had it come to
this, because man had been active in
the interests of his party, he must be
knocked in the head. He hoped not,
and insisted that only tried and true
reformer should be placed Oh guard.
These remarks were received with
slight applause from few and silence
from the majority of the delegates, and
created a decidedly unfavOrable impress
sion.

the shooting cannot he positive ly

fatal shot declined to make any state

A Tunultuous, Glory

At once. on the adoption of the plat
form, the convention broke over all re-
straint and went wild in demonstra-
tiOn that had likeness to descriptions
of enthusiastic baStile demonstrations
in France. The whole convention,
audience and delegates, rose to their
feet, and the first platform of the Peo-
pies party was ushered into the world
with scene of enthusiasm that in in
tenSity and earneStneSS. though not in
absolute length, almost eQualed the
cyciOnie ovation which greeted the
mention of the name OF James &.
Blaine at Minneapolis. That scene
lasted 81 minutes and this scene be-
tween 20 and 25 minutes.

their chairs, cheering, swinging coats
which had been taken off Oh account of
the heat, waving hats and fans and
throwing things in the air. All the
delegates were on their feet. and the
stage was crowded with members of the
committee Oh resolutions. Several
delegates seized Branch, of Georgia,
chairman, and trotted him up and down
the main aisle on their shoulders. The
uprOar continued tremendously.

A new freak at this moment seized
the almost delirious delegates and gave
fresh vent to the feelings of the excited
mammoth assemblage. The banners
and placards were rushed down from
the stage and an impromptu procession,
to which new adherents were con-
stantly received, was started around the
body of the hall in which the delegates

marchers. Connecticut's banner said:

The crowd broke forth time and time
and time again in applause; the women
joined in the movement and, getting in
line, marched with their male associates,
men not in line shouting encouraging
cries of ''Right, sister," The enthusi-
asm showed itself in countless eccentric
tiles. Texas had a coffee can. supposed
to represent a tin pail, on the end of its
pole, and Women's hats, silk tile and
other headgear adorned others.

FIGHTING FOR DELAY.
Gresham's Friends Score Point
by Good Majority.

Oy "a OOO>A NAstJOAhy'
A motion was carried that the resolu-
tions committee report such parts of the
platform as were ready and that these
be considered while the other parts of
the platform were being acted on. This
was apparently the first move on the
part of the Weaver men to hasten a
ballot. A suspicion had gained cur
rency that the committee on resolutions
was not anxious to make very speedy
progress for the reason that it as a
whole preferred Judge Gresham for the
candidate and wanted time to get All
agreement from him that he would let
the convention nominate him. The
motion was carried but the committee
reported that it was not prepared just
yet to make partial-report.
George G. Ward, of Missouri, got
recognition at once on this announce
ment and moved to suspend the rules
and proceed to ballot for nomination of
candidates. This was seconded, but
there was no intention on the part of
the ardent Gresham men to give up
hope until the last straw on which they
leaned was broken, and an Illinois dele
gate made the point OF order that the
motion was contrary to the rules fixing
the order of business. The chairman
Overruled the point on the ground that
the convention could do as 1t pleased.
Ellington, of Georgia, made counter
move on the chess board to this ruling,
by moving the tabling of the motion
and carried his point by very large
majority. The Weaver men knew they
were strong in view of the Kyle tele-
grams and lack of assurances from
Gresham that he would accept, and they
wanted more speed put on the wheels
of the convention.
Lamb, of Texas, Weaver man and
also working for Terrell for vice -presi-
dent, moved to adopt the entire st.
Louis platform as the party platform
This motion was greeted with mingled
cries of approval and disapproval, many
delegates grasping the chance to get off
speeches.

TICKLED BY RHETORIC.
Popular Ideas Given Enthusiastic
Greeting.

The effect of the proceedings in the
convention was to alarm the resolutions
committee. They became stampeded
and soon filed on the stage with a plat
form hastily brought to completion.
Their appearance removed the cause for
the fight on the floor and it was per-
mitted to go by the board, and the con-
vention became silent while Thomas Y.
Gator, of California, read the preamble
of the unanimous report of the resolu-
tions committee Oh the platform adopted.
Gator moved the adoption of the pre-
amble and it was adopted by unani-
nous uprising of delegates and with
tumuItuous applause.
Branch, of Georgia, read the platform
proper, which is practically the same as
published Monday, with some changes
in verbiage. The strong sentences,
picturing graphically the rum of the
country uniess there was 4 reform, were
weii received and met appreciation, but

many of the audience joined in the
