A voice: Throw 'em out"
Right hero is where Mr.. South came
into evidence, for suddenly rising TO his
feot hc said:
"Ar. Chairman, move that tho last
sentence DO stricken out and tho names
OF Senators Brice. German, Smith and
others be substituted"
Mr. South warmly and eloquently de.
Tended his position, stating that Brlco
and others had betrayed tho party that
was pledged to tariff reform; that they
were no longer entitled 70 DO called
Democrats, and that they should be read
out Of tho party.
Mr. SouIh's speech created q Sensa-
ton, and from tho applause which fol.
lowed mora than nall the delegates ap.
peared 70 DO with him. His remarks
reused up an intoxicated Individual in
the rear, who mouthed a iow incoherent
sentences, when q delegate arose and
said:
"Mr. Chairman, that man is not
delegate; he's from West Virginia"

"sham" Barton, Of Coleraln, raised
his voice at this luncture, but as he
was not q delegate the chair squelched
him. Ho was no sooner quoted than
tho lrrepressible Albert Lawrence, Of
ST. Clairsville, who was persona non grhtG
also, was called TO order no having no
voice in the deliberations OF the conven-
ton. Mr.. South gave another imita.
ton Of the angel with the flaming sword
driving Brice out OF the Democratic
Eden, after which vote was taken on
his amcndmont By tho tally sheet he
had won his point, the vote standing
40 10 81 In favor OF the amendment,
but before the announcement could DO
made Mr.. A. O. Darrah, OF St. Clalrs-
vile, seeing how the cat was going TO
Jump, moved to lay the resolutions and
tho amendment on tho table. As the
motion was not debatablo tho chair
quickly put tho motion and declared II
carried. This virtually left the conven-
ton without a platform. The anti
Brice men had clearly won, but wore

Mr.. Darrah to mollify tho opposition
proposed to take tho resolutions from

"You're amart, amt your" haunting.

who, like Banquo's appnritlon, could
not be effaced. "You know It requires
two-thirds vote TO lift the resolutions
and amendment from the table"
Delegate Brown. Of Flushing, said he
would DO qualified that there were not
Eve Democrats In his township but
what were against Brice. "Let men go

II. Eaton. OF Barnesvillo, remarked in
primitive tone that he was somewhat
Of a Democratic himself, but he didn't
believe tho party could afford to read
anybody out OF 1t this year. do con-
sldercd German and others far hotter
Democrats than Gresham. This was
slap at Cleveland, and again the portrait
Of the cuckoo trainers winked tho other
eye.
The chairman while tho discussion
wns going on, which was entirely out Of
order, as there was no motion before
tho house, calmly looked on the scone
OF uproar until patience ceased 10 be In
tho catalogue Of his virtues. He forcl-
bly sat down on the malcontents by re.
marking that he mado his decision and
like tho clock 1t would have TO 90. II
gentlemen wanted to antagonize Mr..
Brice they had their remedy In the elec'
ton OF tho next legislature, or at the
coming state convention, which was tho
only place to discuss hia recroancy to

him.
That scttlcd'it. But nevertheless, II
did not blot the figures 40 to 81 of the

The convention then settled down to
