luton, the prospect of an early report
was not very good.
A Ticket Named.

n
The convention reassembled at p.
m. and the reports of the committee on
credentials and permanent organization
were presented and adopted. The fol-
lowing candidates were nominated:
For supreme judge, Hon. W. M. Rob
inson, of Jasper county; for superin-
tendent of public instruction. ]. r.
Kirk, of Jackson county: for railroad
commissioner, Joseph Flory, of st.
Louis.
Then came the selection of a chair
man for the state central committee.
and Chauncey 1. Ffiley, of st. Louis,
was unanimously nominated.
At $3.50 the committee on resolutions
sent word they would not report for
three hours.
A motion to adjourn till $50 was
/ then carried.
| After sitting in continuous session for
seven hours the committee on resolu-
tons failed to reach an agreement on
the A. P. A. question.
The religious faction would not down
until, in desperation, the committee sat
down on both the A. P. A. members
and those who wanted to insert a plank
jcondemning the organization.
AT 1890 Chairman Frank began to
read the platform, each plank of\which
was received with applause, that relat-
ing to money being especially well re-
ceived.
| At the last moment, Colonel Kerens
was prevailed upon to permit the A.
P. A. question to remain in the shade.
After the adoption of the platform,
Chauncey l. Filley, of st. Louis, lad
dressed the convention. The convention
adjourned sine die
Same Old Goods.

lutions, which was unanimously adopt
ed, is as follows:
