Mr.. Martin, Of Kansas, indulged in some
playful ridicule of the vain efforts Of the chair
man and sefgeant-nt-arms to maintain order.
and said il the same disrespect was shown to
other speakers was shown Mr.. Tnrpie he
would move to adjourn.
Hon. Fred White, OF Iowa, was recognized
to nominate ex-Gov Boies. Cheers of a COM
paratively mild type greeted the announce
ment, and the Boies banner was raised.
Mr.. White has q sonorouS voice and good de-
livery, and was listened to with attention. He
closed glowing tribute to Iowa's ex-governor
by saying;
Gov Boies does not believe in a dishonest
ffty-cent dollar, as it would work an injury to
the creditor class neither does he bellows In q
two hundred-ccnt dollar which is still more
dishonest as it unluestionably involves the
bankruptcy of the debtor class. Gov.
Boies believes in an honest American dollar,
by 4 law of the American congress and coined
for use among the American people. He be-

handed to them, and between them they man

back in their seats exhausted.
AS soon as some slight degree Of order was

was seconded by MI. A. T. Smithson, OF MIN
nesota.
Hon, John s. Rhea, Of Kentucky. with q
sembling that of the senator he nominated,
placed in nomination the name of Senator
Joseph s. Blackburn, Of Kentucky. He pre-
faced his remarks with the pledge that who
ever wes nominated, kentucky would give
him her vote. He spoke Of his candidate as
"Jce" Blackburn, because to KentuckanS he
was JOG Blackburn and that meant every
thing. ChccrS.1 1t was true that he was

Mr.. w. ". Footc, of California, seconded
