But thirty-two delegates were present
last night at the Prohibition convention
held in Relief Hall, 14l East Ninth
street. Fully three times as many at
tended the convention of last spring and
thai of two years ago. The local Pro-
hibltlon spirit, If not wonderfully d.
minished, has been al least much COIL
densed. This sudden shrinkage proved
Il mystery to the leaders, and, in default
of less comforting explanations, they
blamed it all upon the weather.
No nominations were made for num-
Der of offices. This was not due to lack
of good material; but the Prohibition
party is young, and therefore modest.
1t does not want all the offices at once.
At s o'clock only twelve delegates
were present, but three-quarters of an
hour later the convention was called to
order byN. r. Frost. chairman of the
county committee.
+. r. MECHANICAL nominated DR.. w. A.
Powers as chairman, and the doctor was
elected by reclamation. ii. s. Webster
was elected secretary. A committee of
three on credentials was appointed, the
chair naming N. r. Frost. Rev. George
+. Wells and w. w. Nicholas. The
committee ON credentials were soon
ready to report, through Chairman
Frost. that thirty-two delegates were
present, the Fifth being the only ward
without representation.
Mr.. Frost again moved that commit
tee of one from each ward be appointed
on nominations. This was adopted. A
third motion, again issued from the pa
tient Mr.. Frost, this time for commit
tee of three on resolutions. The we'll
known principles and eloquence of Rev.
George F. Wells, A. b. Wray and An
drew Rankin were therefore called
upon to strike dismay into the cornwall
Democrat. the dissolute Republican and
the cider-blDbng Populist.
