met at $3.50 o'clock this morning, but
as the committee on credentials was
not ready to report, adjournment was
had until 1880, when it was said the
committee would be through their

committee was wrangling over con-
tested counties. The delegates were
dissatisfied and a motion was made
to appoint new committee, one that
could agree. The convention adjourn.

the convention met again. The chair
appointed three additional sergeants
at arms.
r. E. Hannay for the committee on
credentials, read the report for which
the convention had been waiting. 1t
showed that 756 delegates were enti-
tied to seats in the convention. In

Hoolihan of Galveston was denied
the privilege of making speech over
his vigorous protest. The minority
report was voted down and the ma
jority report adopted. Hoolihan
made an attempt to strike delegate

his friends. The committee on pei

provoked great laughter and shouts
of approval. He lauded Grover Cleve-
land as being better than his party,
and at the suggestion of Caldwell OF
Brazos he added to his speech that
Cleveland's success was due to the
fact that he patterned after John
Sherman's financial policy.
The committee on platform was
ready and made their report, which
was adopted. The platform was short
and touched the following issues:
"Renews devotion to the MinneapN
