THE DELEGATES SELECTED
The Conclusion of Saturdays Republican
Convention.

The Conclusion of Saturdays Republican
Convention
The following are the final proceed
ings of Saturdays convention of Repub-
licans to select delegates to the state con-
vention:
General J. c. Caldwell, a candidate for
congressman at large from Shawnee
county, was introduced when Mr.. Davis
had concluded his speech. General
Caldwell seemed to be more feeble than
he was few years ago but he>made a
speech which was frequently applauded.
MIR. M. H Case and DIR. Eva Harding
were present at the opening of the con-
vention in the interest of an equal suf-
frage resolution which they asked the
committee on resolutions to consider.
George L. Douglass, another candi-
date for congressman at-large, was then
introduced He was greeted with cheers
as he marched to the front of the court
room, and as he stepped to the speakers
stand same one in the back part of the
room called out: 'Bring on the sIedge-
hammer!"
The Resolutions.
The committee on resolutions present
ed the following report:
We, the Republicans of Shawnee
county, in convention assem- bled. reaffirm
our allegiance to the undying principles
of the Republican party, and pledge
anew our faith and confidence in the
wisdom, honesty and patriotism of its adj
herents.
We point to the history of the Repub-
ican party as covering the most prosper
GUS period of the nations existence.
We mourn the loss of our beloved
state from the Republican column
at the last presidential election,
and the attending evils of misruIe,
loss of credit, and the opprobrium con-
sequent upon the defeat of our own state
ticket; and now, with the past experience
at our command,
We resolve, That we demand a change
of state administration at the polls in
November, by the election of the entire
Republican state ticket.
When the report of the committee on
resolutions had been read and adopted as
presented, Major Hudson introduced Ed
z. Greer, third candidate for the NOM
ination of congressman at-Iarge. Major
Hudson said, "He is a native of Kansas
and is a good one'
w. F. Guthrie of Atchison, a second
candidate for attorney general was then
called for and was introduced by Major
Hudson.
The Delegates Chosen.
The committee appointed to select
delegates and alternates to the county

BLOCKING TO DENVER.

Coxsyftes Pouring Into That City BY
Hundreds Bound Eastward.
DENVER, May 21.-The Coxey home
reserve of Denver is likely to have as
much business as it can we'll attend to
for the next few weeks.
The news having been heraIded that
headquarters for the marching com
monwealers has been esta blished here,
the scattered bands throughout the west
are all heading for this city. Several
hundred have already assembled here
and Gen. Hegwer says transportation
will be secured for them at least as far
as the Missouri river. Citizens are con-
tributing provisions literally.

A Lively Time.
A fight on the report of the committee
was sprung when A. d. Hubbard ad-
dressed Chairman Coney and said: eff
there is mem her of the committee who
is not on that delegation / would like to
know it."
A. D. Hubbard made a spirited fight
against the "fxers," but later in the aft
ernoon took back what he had said, and
declared that all delegates and commit
teemen were nice gentlemen and person
al friends.
A farmer who was apparently not in
on the scheme to get Bill Higgins of
Kansas City, ex-secretary of state. on the
delegation, arose and said there was no
such farmer in his township, gave one
''snap" away and Mr.. Higgins was re-
tired.
B F. Van Horn, of Menoken township,
also led fight against the William Mead
delegate credited to his township.
Mr.. Van Horn was asked to yield the
floor to Mr.. Quinton to ask a question,
but he refused to allow Mr.. QuInton to
talk on his time He said Mr. Mead was
not the choice of his delegation, and
after a bitter fight Mead was knocked
out and G. w. r. Ward was put on as
the delegate from Menoken and E. Rob-
inson was named as alternate.
Scott Kelsey, c. p Bolmar and others
objected to Topeka township being cut
egates and they made such a warm fight
that the convention finally ordered the
Third ward to drop one delegate and al
ternate and permitted Topeka township
to add one.
Topeka township added Scott Kelsey
as its delegate and j. ]. Willard as altern-
ate.
The Third ward had some difficulty in
dropping a member. 1t had been de-
cided in their caucus that if any drop
ping was to be done the man receiving
the lowest number of votes for delegate
was to be dropped. This man would
have been ]. FL. Page, a colored man.
Charley McCabe and other Third
warders insisted that the Third should
send colored man to the state conven-
ton, as there are more colored votes in
that ward than in any other ward in the
state.
1t was decided to vote again on the
proposition to s'drop," and the man re-
ceiving the highest number of votes was
to be dropped The vote stood: George
III. Evans z, s. ]. Bear 5, F. P. Lindsey 1,

Mr.. Evans thought one laboring man
should go on the delegation from that
ward, and feels sore that he should be
left of To get even Mr.. Evans yester-
