'clusion of the City Conven-
ms Work Yesterday.
Got His Candidates Nam ed
v kudely Turned Down.
The CandIdates Named and
Other Incidents.

about one-third Of the delegates were
present. Enough slraggled in by 8 80
o'clock to start the ball rolling, bat it
took an exceedingly zig-zag course dur
ing the proceedings. The delegates left
30 late the preceding night that the de.
feated did not have time to entirely
sleep off their feeling OF regret, although,
ns one delegate said, it was somewhat
Bmothered.
Chairman Day developed solicitude
Tor the small points which was termed
by one delegate irascibility, and made
life weary to DIR. MacGowan, II. Q.
Register and others, by personally re-
questing them to take their seats. In
spite OF these little advertisements the
convention kept fairly good order, and
accepted good humoredly the vicissi-
tudes and entanglements OF the secret
ballot, which makes the nominations as
slow as the moral law and allows the
enthusiasm for each successful candi-
date to thoroughly ebb before additional
drafts are drawn upon the reserve fund.

On motion of Walter 8. Moore, the

that 1t was the sense of the convention
that hereafter the primaries be held by
precincts instead of wards.
On motion of Mr.. Lee, tine ward CON.
veutions we're authorized to name the
same gentlemen on their ward disbu rse-
ment committees as those named by the
chairman In order to avoid so many
committees, and centralize the matter
in one committee.
CITY TREASURER.
There is little inside history on the
city treasurership. The awkward failure
OF Gen. H. A. Pierce to nlace Harvey ],
Shoulders in nominKSE,n for mayor
created much sympathy for him, and
unpleasant remarks about General
Pierce. He attempted to make an ex.
PLANTATION, which didn't ex plain, and was
called down by one OF the delegates, who
shouted that ii was too late for explana-
tions. Thursday night after the adjourn
ment of the convention, several OF tie
Third ward boys who were smarting un.
der the way General Pierce had acted,
got up plan to nominate Mr.. Shoulders
LIZ
Cal Hunter and several ether Third
warders, went up to Mr.. Shoulders in
front of the Hollenbeck, to inform him
of the plan. Mr.. Shoulders was so sore
over the turn matters had taken, how
ever, that he had lost his usual urbanity,
and when Gal Hunter spoke to him, re-
commended his journey to a very warm
atmosphere. 1t was at fret thought he
Was joking, but he did not allow them
any Misunderstanding OF his position,
and the boys who had the genial impulse
were frozen as with killing frost. That
is one of the reasons why. when Chair
man Day called for nominations for city
treasurer. the name of Harvey j. Shoul-
ters was not presented to the conven-
tiop.
Mr.. Burdette nominated Councilman
w. H. Rhodes; H. f. Storrs nominated
W. A. Hartwell. present deputy CITY
treasurer. and Major Furrey named P.
L. Budinger.
The first ballot resulted in the nomi-
nation OF Mr.. Hartwell, he receiving 1856
votes, Mr.. Rhodes AZ, and Mr.. Budin-
ger GA.
TAX COLLECTOR.
The nomination of q tax collector was
!. accomplished with neatness and dis
stch, John Fl. Gish receiving Isl votes
3. d. Wade's SO. The delegates put
We illegal ballots. but as they did
Fect the result the ballot was
dslthough the three double votes
thrown out.
