party, which was tho foundation OF he
fOpulist party. / had no intention OF
speaking and was merely, present Us u
spectator, and was in doubt as to
whether a woman ever attended u con-
ycnton or III fact. If she would be per-
nitted ~ attend. some OF the knights
saw me and called out my name.
~ was 50 nervous and asked my
neighbur what II meant He told me
they wanted me ia speak, and when The
chairman called ON me TO speak my ig-
norancl of tie usages led me To believe
that 1 would have To speak, So / did

been taking an interest in politics even
since and have read up ON that subject.

10 his efforts 10 secure a denomination
for governor. He wanted TO appoint
Democrats TO office with that object in
