John I. Game and J. B. Timmony were
named, but both declined. S. a. Ken
ner was then elected, and on taking the
chair he made a brief speech, thanking
the convention for the honor and urging
the delegates TO discharge their duties
with moderation. The Democratic party
was the party of emergencies, and was
always equal to whatever duty confronted
it. It was called upon today to
meet an unexpected crisis, and ne
hoped they would acquit themselves with
credit and return to their constituents
with the consciousness OF a duty well
performed.

secretary, and the following committee
on credentials was then chosen:
First Precinct-Edwin Frost.
SecondePrecinct-J III. Bailey.
Third Precinct-O. II. Hardy.
Fourth Precinct-Joseph Cohen.
Fifth Precinct-C. II. Banks.
Inasmuch as the city committee had in
cluded the nomination Of candidates TO
the legislature in the business to be trans
acted by the convention. and other ar
engagements for a legislative convention
lad sfterward been made by the county

b ton to the municipal ticket.
The following committee on permanent
organization and order Of business was
appointed:
First precinct-A. FL. Wool ey.
Second precinct-P. J. DAILY.
Third precinct-A. e. Hyde.

The convention then adjourned until
p. IN.
IN THE EVENING.
The evening session was called to order
by $. A. Kenner, at 7:15 o'clock, and the
report OF the committee on credentials
was read by Secretary Dun bar. 1t was
moved that the report be adopted.
Captain Middlemiss moved that the re-
port be not adopted in its present form.
He wanted the committee to vouch that
ali those whom they reported as being
entitled to seats in the convention were
straight Democrats and not connected
with any other party. p. J. DAILY Sec
onded the motion, and the mover pro-
ceeded to talk in support of the motion.
A. X. Hyde said the name of Captain
Middlemiss was not reported on the list
by the committee and therefore, he had
no right to speak in the convention. 1t
was stated that Captain AIiddlemiss held
a proxy from Andy Brixen. The chair
man Of the committee on credentials said
his idea was not to admit proxies at all,
but the other members of the committee
had overruled him. The fact was, how
ever, that at the primaries the people had
elected alternates, and that was enough
TO prove that proxies should not be adj
mitted.
The question whether vacancies could
be filled by alternates carried, and proxies
were excluded, AID Mr.. Middlemiss sub
sided.
The report Of the committee was then
adopted as follows:
