When the convention got down to the
judicial portion of the ticket confusion
rcigned supreme, for there were a few
who dared TO hint at fusion with the
Democrats. There were others who
advocated conference with both par
ties with view to selecting those who
were good enough to be Endorsed by the
Populists. When Capt. Nelson rose to
propose such conference there were
bowls of Fusion. fusiou." and "Dis-
grace, disgrace" from all parts of the
room. But Capt. Nelson had his say.
He maintained that there was not the
material in the Peoples party to make
good Judges, such judges whose virtues
and capabilities might be looked upon
with pride, and who stood a show of
being elected. His speech must have
hurt some peoples feelings, for there
are members of the party who Imagine
that they are just as capable lawyers as
any that can be found anywhere.
There were a number of wild
speeches, and the result of 1t all was
that committee was appointed to look
after timber" for judges, the conyen-
ton deciding to take non.partisan
ticket. This means that two of the
Democratic candidates will he Endorsed.

again and decide upon whether the
committees selections are the proper
