tions met and leaders conferred behind

most remarkable feature about the con-
yentlon so far has been the absence of

that his friends can afford TO be. mag

nothing but acquiesoe In the ascertained

as ever In their loyalty, but they reaRze
the helplessness of making shrieking or
offensive demonstrations i'm favor of their

sheathed their swords. This does not
