Among the Committees.

MINNEAPOLIS, June 1.-THE committee
on rules met and elected Gen. Ell. III.
Bingham of Pennsylvania chairman and
Judge 5. f. Stahl of Arkansas secretary.
1t was decided to recommend to the
convention the adoption of the rules of
the convention of 1888 with a few unim-
Eportant changes made necessary by the
admission of new states. #
The committee on credentials met at s
O'Clock and Immediately went into ex-
ecutlve session. The subject before the
committee was the arrangement of the
order OF business, which seemed quite a
stumbling block. After considerable
more than an hour it was stated that
none OF the contesting delegations had
been asked to enter the room and the
committee adjourned. From this came
the report that the Blaine mon had cap
tured the committee, which is very
probable.

M'KlNLEY FOR CHAIRMAN.
Both Sides Unite in the Selection of Ohio's
Governor.

MINNEAPOLIS, June 1.-THE commit
tee on permanent organization met this
evening and Governor Mckinley was put
in nomination for permanent chairman
of the convention. Several members
made complimentary speeches and Gov
ernor Mckinley was chosen by acclama-
ton. His selection was due to the fact
that he was eminently fitted, and while
he is in favor of the nomination of the
President, the anti-administration forces
had no objection to him.

was obvious that the speaker was gradu-
ally approaching an allusion to James G..
Blaine. Every individual of the vast
audience of ten Thousand people breath
lessly awaited this allusion and the dem
onstration that would follow. It
came in the following sentence:
'Our party has furnished Lincoln,
[applause] Seward and Grant. Those
men were great because of their growth
in the line of devotion to Republican
doctrine and Republican principles. Gar
field, [applause] Harrison and Blaine are
all great Republicans"
The words Harrison and Blaines
were mentioned SO rapidly that the
friends of the former candidate were
taken by surprise and had no opportuni-
ty to cheer for their leader, but the
Blaine men made the most of the occa-
sion and for three minutes the delegates
waved their hats and handkerchiefs Wild
ly in the air and cheered the great lead
er.
Another scene came when Chairman
Fassett praised the work of the 51st Con-
gress under the iron will and strong adj
ministration of Thomas B. Reed" AL
most equal to the ovation to Blaine was
the enthusiasm inspired by this
reference to the great Republican
parliamentarian. The ex-Speaker was
seated far in the rear, in the speakers
stand, and was invisible to most of the
audience. Some one started the cry of
Reed, Reed" and it was instantly taken
up by the delegates and the gallery. The
building rang with the popular demand
for the appearance of the man from
Maine. MI. Reed displayed all of his
customary modesty, and not until the
chairman of the convention turned and
beckoned commandingly to him did he
finally arise from his seat. On the first

BANGOR, Me, June S-The Democra tic
state convention was called to order mt Il
o'clock today, and Hon. William Henry
Clifford OF Portland is chairman. 1t IL
practically conceded that Charles Il John
son, "a young Waterville lawyer, will be
the gubernatorial nominee. All the young
blood of the party Is enthusiastic over
him.
There has been considerable talk Of Hon.
Galen &. Moses OF Bath, one Of the veter-
ans Of the party, but it is not known that
he wants the honor, and the belief is that
his name will not be presented to the
convention.
For delegates-at-large there are decided
contests in three districts.
Judge Nathan Cleaves of Portland has
no opposition In the First whatever. In the
Second, Hon. ID. j. McGillicuddy and
Colonel Charles II. Osgood are fighting
the battle vigorously. Serious opposition
is developing to Colonel Charles b. Nor
ton, the redoubtable Augusta chieftain,
who until this time was supposed to have
the honor, as far as the Third district was
concerned, in his pocket
In the Fourth district. Thomas White Of
Bangor and f. H. Hill OF Exeter are still
hard ut It, each claiming everything. The
betting is upon White, as the combination
headed by Hill in the Fourth district to
forward his claims was overwhelmingly
defeated in the district convention.
A strong Cleveland sentiment exists
among the delegates, but desire to pick
a winner outside of New York preponder-
ates. 1t is evident that Maine would like
to see Russell on the end Of the ticket.
The eastern Maine faction believe that
they can summarily squelch any attempt
to glorify Cleveland and are quite en-
phatic in their desires on this score.
Hon. j. p Bass Of Bangor Is generally
looked TO as the leader of the Cleveland
opposition, but he expresses no prefer
