called to order, and the delegates listene'
to an address from Mr.. Holiday on tn
status of the coal miners strike at Pitts
burg.
The committee on credentials submitted
their report and the motion to adopt then
was put. Here man named Hunter
quietly wrote out credentials for himself
from Ohio township, but they were re
jected by Cap Osborn. During the fore
noon this same Hunter offered his vote foi
the ring as the delegate from ILLINOIS
township, but Mr.. Likely the genuine
delegate from that township objected ant
presented his credentials in support OF III:
objection. The surprise OF the convention
may then be imagined when
Hunter offered himself as dele
gate from Ohio township at the a-te--
nom meeting. Some wonderful eXhlbl-
tions of gall are seen at Democratic con-
ventions, but this beat 'em all. And
Willard Boone, who wanted to have IA
votes cast by 1874 delegates in the morning,
actually got mp and insisted that Hunter
was entitled TO vote in the convention
And more surprising still Tom Fitch id
vocated the very same thing. Two IA
year-old boys could not have displayed
such poor quality of political sense.
There may be some doubt about the fraud
in the first Instance, but there could be
no doubt about this case. They actually
tested their afternoon strength on this
issue, but it was so ridiculous that they
were beaten this time by a vote o. 70
to 80

Directly on the heels of this the ring
forces made fight for allowing delegate
from Morton township to cast the vote of
Erie township, and on this issue they were
again beaten.
The report of the committee on rules
and order OF business was then adopted
The report of the committee on resolu-
lions was adopted as follows:
