The Second Day.

At ten o'clock the convention was
called to order by temporary chairman
Fairbanks, but the committees on
resolutions and credentials were not
ready to report. The committee on
permanent organization reported an
nouncing the name of John NJ. Thurs
ton Of Nebraska for permanent chair
man. The announcement vas greeted
with cheers and when q motion was
made to adopt the report there was
vigorous protests, that the proceeding
was out OF order and that the creden-
tial committee should first report.
Chairman Fairbank ruled different,
however, and the report was adopted
by o rising vote. Chairman Thurston
was escorted to the platform and made
q ringing speech referring to each car
dinal principal covered in the plat
form.
The convention then took q recess
until afternoon.
In the afternoon the first show
Of strength between the Mckinley fol-
lowers and those Of Reed, Allison,
Quay and Morton came, and although
the issue presented was not as strong
as Mckinley, 1t demonstrated to the
satisfaction OF all that the candidate
had Q clear majority of over Q hun
dred In the convention. TheQuesti0n
was the adoption OF the report Of the
committee on credentials, which rsti-
fed the action Of the national Com-
mittee In giving almost all the 168 con-
tested seats to the Mckinley men and
decided the Texas contest In favor Of
the Grant mckinley delegation and
that in Deleware In favor OF the Hig-
gins delegation. The presentation Of
the report VA met with . violent

SOMETHING TO KNOW.

1t may be worth something to know
that the very best mediciue for restoring
the tired out nervous system to healthy
vigor is Electric Bitters. This medicine
Is purely vegetable, acts by giving tone
to the nerve centers in the stomach,
gently stimulates the liver and kidneys,
and aids these organs in throwing of
impurities In the blood. Electric Bitters
improves the appetite, aids digestion,
and is pronounced by those who have
tried it as the very best blood purifier
and nerve tonic. Try it. Sold for soc
