S. II. THURMAN,
the party presented report in favor
of the abandonment of the dual sys-
tenn of societies and committees, as
likely to cause confusion, misunder-
standing and lack of potency for good.
They recommended that the only or
ganization Of the party be that under
the Democratic committee as properly
constituted.
James H. Moyle said the report left
out several essential things that
should have been embodied and his
| molten for recommitment carried.
A cali was then made for the report
I of the committee on resolutions, but
no answer was made and Chairman
! John I. Caine went out to seek infor-
/ nation. Judge Powers, with a quiz
zical expression on his face, looked at
the band and said:
I have been informed that a distin-
guished Republican of Weber county
| Judge Boreman) has said that
Marching Through Georgia" is never
/ played in a Democratic convention.
For the benefit of that gentleman and
at the special request of some Ogden
members, / would ask the band to
play that air."
Brought Down the House.
This brought down the house, the
i Weber delegation being greatly
amused. Cheers, laughter and ap-
plause greeted the sally. The band
played again the American Patrol.
Judge Powers brought forth a heavy
lala
afternoon the convention would be ia
vored with a visit and address from
that staunch silver man and exponent
of the true Democracy, William j.
! Bryan, of Nebraska.
AS there was a possibility of another
long wait, someone called for a speech
from Roberts. This brought an ova-
ton for that gentleman. Nearly half
the delegates broke into cheers for
Roberts and calls for his name, until
Judge Powers brought order and an
nounced that it would not he in order
to have a speelh until the report was
received.

The Chair with mock seVerity)-The
gentleman must not use objectionable
language.
The committee on party organization
then made report embodying the
suggestion for a single organiza ton
and also recommending that the ter
Titorial committee consist of the chair
men Of the various county committees
throughout the territory, with seven
extra members from Salt Lake, three
each from Weber and Utah, two from
Cache and one each from Sanpete and
Summit. The report was signed by

this report there was a connection in
the house. 1t was caused by the en-
trance of Chairman John T. Game
