saw Major Moore, the chief Of police.

HARD 70 NOMINATE
But It Will Be Still Harder to
Elect.
SHERIFF SMITH KNOCKED OUT
The Democrats Have a Monkey and
Parrot Time by Candle
Light.

Ten minutes after 2 yesterday after
noon Dr. Mullinix stepped on the plat.
form at Fishers hall and called the
convention delegates there assembled tc
order, informing them that the houi
had arrived for opening the adjourned
convention.
The doctor did not state whether II
was a Democratic convention or not
but when such old-tlmers as Hons
John Hobson, James Brown, ]. w
Walker and A. H. Sales were invited to
sit on the platform right alongside Of
the doctor where they could keep watch
on Herman Wise, who sat in front
seat across the aisle from Thomas Dea-
ley, with Coroner Pohl right behind the
latter gentleman, it was fair to as
sumo that It was Democratic conven-
tion.
1t seemed pity that Mr. Logan, one
of the original seven, was not present
to encourage them. but he wasn't.
Secretary Nolan read the minutes q
the last meeting, and they were duly
approved.
Chairman Smith, of the committee on
platform, desiring more time for his re-
port, the same committees We're APP
pointed on credentials and order of
business as at the last meeting Those
and the two last named committees go
ing into session, the convention was ac-
cordingly adjourned until 2:SO, at which
time the convention reRssembled, and
Chairman Thompson reported on ere
dentials, and was followed by Chairman
Wise on order OF business, who request
ed that all those not delegates leave
the hall, whereupon those who had no
oil in their lamps dispersed, casting
many looks of regret at the delegates,
for 1t was understood that nearly every
one of them had a tomahawk under his
vest, with the handle in easy reach.
Before many half hours had slipped
away It was stated upon the streets
that some of the delegates had sounded
their slogan, which was Anything to
beat Smith" that Delegate Selig
claimed that Smith had insulted him
right in the sheriff's office. This set
tied it, and selig had the pleasure OF
plunking in his little black ball when
