OF THE LEGISLATURE.
MIR. Harris made a neat speech in
favor of Hon. G. B. Little. He said
twice he had had the opportunity of
nominating a man for office who had
won both battles. He eulogized Mr..
Little's record as state senator, and said
he had been equal to every emergency and
never found wanting.
Mr.. Little was nominated by acclama-
ton.
Captain Moorhouse nominated w. A.
Bentley for the house. He spoke in
fattering terms of Mr.. Bentley, and
said he was the particular friend of the
old soldiers.
Mr.. Van Horn said he was not a
veteran, but a son of a veteran, and he
would nominate John Yegen, who had
made an excellent representative, and on
motion both men were nominated by &C.
clamation.

for treasurer, and Mr.. Gilbert nomi-
mated Judge Bowen.
The vote was by ballot and resulted
as follows:

The nomination ofiMr. Dunn was de-
clared. After this nomination Mr..
Smith informed the convention that the
minority was there in good faith and if
it was intended to crowd down ob1ec.
tionable men and democrats they'd get
out. The chairman asked if he wished
to make a motion of any kind, where
upon MI. Smith arose and said if Dunn
was the nominee, the minority would go
out, 80 Pat with n vote, and a third of
a man-Gilbert, the informer-quietly
and with great dignity and disgust left
the room. Soon after another third of a
vote, DeGraff, went out to see how the
weather was land later a couple more,
Paris and Avery got a move on them
selves-making in all 3 2-3 votes out of
