@. o. Holly called for the regular or
der OF business. but Mr.. Montgomery
insisted on speaking. He had no enmity
to Mr.. Schnabal. He had examined
the recorde. Many of the charges
sgainat Schnabel were not well founded.
Mrs. Alix moved that the whole mat
ter be laid on the table.
Mr.. Schnabel said that he courted all
the investigations that Udell could bring
against him.
The motion to lay on the table was
lost.
The chair inadvertently referred to
Harry Odell as Harry Udell, and as a
consequence Odell nearly exploded with
indignation, and announced that his
name was Oiell, with the accent on
the 0.
Mr.. Golfer wanted the men who
brought these charges sat down upon at
once. He charged the county committee
with being guilty OF these "damnable
proceedings of machine element" II
say beware. beware!" There was
much excitement in the hall by this
time.
DR.. Whittleaev was very sorry that
this had been brought up this
morning. "It was very bad, bad policy
on THE part of those who had brought
it up. An investigation will show that
Mr.. Schnabel is perfectly honest
man."
If Mr.. Laud had been under fire him
self ne could not have been more vehe-
mont in the use of his language, for he
declared that the whole thing was a
dirty outrage and the person5 dogs end
acoundrels who originated it.
Secretary Clark asked Mr.. Montgom-
cry if he had not printed q eo-called
Populist paper, and in printing the Pop
ulist ticket ii ne had not Intentionally

Populist nominee for sheriff, and pub

eating Andy McNally's candidacy. Up
roar broke loose at this, but finally Fisk
got the convention quiet by vigorous
pounding, and the motion to appoint a
committee was carried.
Robinson moved that the committee
be elected by the convention.
The motion to eloct the committee
was carried, and nominations were made
ss rapidly as th6 names could bs called.
While this was going on CLARK had to be
suppressed by the chair for unoompli-
mentsry remarks directed to several of
the leaders.
While the vote counting WAS proceed
ing j. P. Rogers, Judge Bledsoe, Secre-
tary Dominguez OF the late Democratic

who usually act with the Democrats
came in and took seats and held con.
sultation with the prominent Populists.

Peebies, w. L. Wolfe, j. D. Bailey. O..
O. Hawley and y. Sonnemsn.
A motion was mads by McCrellis to
adjourn for week TO give the com.
mittee time to report, but the motion
was lost.
Golfer asked if the Udell who made
the charges was the Udell who was
mixed up in the notorious divorce suit
in the superior court two years ago.
Judge Blair wanted the afternoon de.
voted to C report OF the committee.
Mr.. McCrellis proposed to bring evil

meeting of these same men" against
him.
German and then the convention ad.
journed until p. n.
The afternoon session was equal to
that OF the morning in point OF order,
for it was all talk. wrangle and perley,
and little business until toward the close
OF the session. The first thing that was
done was the passage of a motion 10
leave vacant the nomination for city at
torney.
The school board question then
bobbed up in all it's glory. and some
wanted the Non-Pertisan ticket endorsed
and aome didn't; come wanted to go in
with the Democrats TO down tho Repub
licane and some wanted to fight the bat
tie alone and down themselves, though
hororably, in fighting for Populistic
principles. One faction thought it bet
ter to fuae than to stand alone and
lose.
The chairman OF the conference COM
mittee. w. l.. Wolfe, and many others
advised the endorsement of the ticket.
while Ii. Riley thought differently. He
said no man who was politician was
an honest man, and used such argument
as basis. He said he had "iound more
Office seekers here today than in any OF
the old parties. This idea of fusion is q
damnable one."
He said he thought Udell was a
Judas Iscariot in springing such thing
as he did at the morning session, and
got 30 eloquent and go far off the real
question that the chair quietly called
him to order. Ii. Ii. Savage opposed
the fusion idea, and was against any
doctrine that taught his children any
thing and everything except universal
freedom in thought"
Secretary j. G. Barbee OF the State
Farmers alliance favored the endorse.

posed ths combination.
The oppoaition of Milton Carlson and
A. @. Grosser TO the ticket led to soius-
one calling for the reading OF the ticket,
which he said had five Republicans on
it, three Democrats and one Populiat,
giving the Republicans entire control in
city educational matters.
@. e. Fisk wanted to know whore
every man stcod before he would sup,
port the choice of combination. He
wanted TO know whether the candidates
would use their best efforts to secure
education for the children OF common
people as we'll as those OF the plutoc-
racy.
Then the question arose for vote as
to the recommendation OF the ticket re-
ported by the conference committee, but
it WAS voted down.
L. w. Mitchell, the Popuiist placed
on the ticket TO represent the Ninth
ward, then resigned from the ticket and
DR.. Whitsiesey wanted a Republic IN,
