 The democrats had left the place of councilman vacant on their ticket and asked the populists to fill the vacancy. On motion of J. T. Broyles the nomin- ation of councilman was referred back to the democratic central com mittee, also conveying the thanks of the convention to the democratic con vention which rendered the uomina- tion of populist.
 The sentiment of the delegates was against the endorsement of any candi- dates nominated, but to allow the members of the party Co vote with either of the old parties as they saw fit.
