j. L. Davie, and he has answered. want

| lie, An absolute lie. | did not ask
single delegate TO vote for me. lie dId not
| ask me 10 vote Tor his franchise. When
! the vote on the warehouse matter came up
l was sick in bed. Do y0a suppose L
would hesitate to vote for such an I'M
| proVement, which only cost in all paitry
| S160? This whole matter has been brought
up in this convention by one mar, and L
am sorry il is so. [ thank you for your
! kindness"
After this quiet reigned long enough TO

! convention for Mr.. Stewart for Assessor
alter it became fully understood that Dali
| ton had resigned.
But the matter had not ended. The
| third storm of the dav broke over the third
| party convention when Mr.. Button, dele
! gate, stepped out in the aisle and shouted:
II want to say a few words. There is a
traitor among US. | was just passing out
! in the lobby when / heard two young men
| say they heard delegate say as ne went
OUT. L just came into the convention TO
| rip certain man up the back, and L am
! through now with the party
This speech created another panic. Cries
! of THE traitorr' "Who Is he ?" Give
| his namaw were heard on all sides.
Mr.. Dutton said he would bri up the
two young men. and he did. They gave
the names of Thomson and Burrell.
! They explained that Delegate Jerry Dunn
was the man. Thompson said Dutton said
to Dunn: You did fine, jerry" Then
| Dunn made the remark, with some pretty
! strong language in addition, which could
not be used before ladies.
There were wild cries for Dunn, and
pandemonium re gned in the hall. Soon
I'll mar
| haps he could throw light on the matter.
he was called to the platform and said
he was in the crowd when Dunn was talk
ing, and that the latter made the remark as
follows:"I believe Dave came into the
party to rip it up the back"
AT this DsVie shouted out: That's
! lie, anyhow"
At this iuncture Dunn. who was ou'-
side, got wind of what was going on and
he took the platform. He was so mad
| that he could hardly talk. He said:
Il am here. What's the matter? | can
speak for myself and | intend to make the
smoke 1y. l am a Populist without
stain, but there is John l.. DaVle and lot
| of demagOgueS -
Dunn was shut off on that line by cries
of No" No." and he then proceeded in
a milder way to deny that he ever said
that be came into the convention TO rip
certain party in the back. He took his
seat, but anger took possession Of him
| and it was hard work to pacify him. 1t was
| accomplished finally and the convention
again got down to work.
