CHAIRMAN THURSTON.
A Man Who Worked His Way tc
Fame and Fortune.

A Man Who Worked His Way tc
Fame and Fortune.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, June Ex-senator J.
NJ. Thurston, who will act as permanent
chairman of the convention, is true type
of American manhood in it's highest and
broadest sense. His birthplace was in
Montpelier VT, but when he was but
years of age his parents removed to Wis
consin. Mr.. Thurston's iather lost bis
life in the war of the rebellion, thus leav-
ing his young son, John Miller, the main
prop of the family.
The young man bravelv set 20 work to
take care of his mother, but having no
trade or profession he did manual labor OF.
farms or wherever he could find remunera-
tive employment. Not being satisfied
with the compensation he was receiving
he went to Chicago and engaged himsel.
to drive a grocer's delivery saving
every penny that was left. often remitting
enough of his earnings to help his mother
stem the currents of her financial needs
and her own frugal way of living
Meanwhile he applied himself to his
books, so that after very few years h,
was able to enter Wayland College at
Beaver Dam, Wisconsin. Subsequently
in the fall of 1869, at the age of a few
months past %, he was admitted to thc
bar, and Immediately settled in Omaha.
Nebr
From the very start his law practice
was remunerative. Soon after his arriva
in Omaha he was drawn into politics, and
his party made haste TO reward him by
electing him to every office from Alder
man to United States Senator, barring
State offices, for which he had no taste.
However he did serve his district in tho
State Legislature.
AS lawyer he attracted the attention OF
| that prince OF railway managers, Hon. S.
II. II. Clark who made him assistant
attorney and later on general solicitor OF
the Union Pacific system. In all the liti-
cation of that great corporation Mr..
Thurston has been the legal pilot.
Senator Thurston is emphatically man
of the people. He has no idea what it is
to be "stuck up" His warmest friends
will be found in the lower as well as the
higher walks of life. Being an omnivor-
Gus devourer of books, he has made him
self one of the most scholarly men of the
West; Du. through it all he has failed 10
accumulate fortune. Senator Thurston
is a poor man; naturally so, because he
ALWAYS ran to WAYS to help those who
| tried to help themselves and all his
money was required to aid them onward.
As an orator he has few equals in this
country. 1t will be rem embered how Mr..
Thurston, as temporary chairman, elec-
trified the National Republican Conven-
ton in 1888 1t was said that in logical
argument and in oratorlcal presentation
his speech has never been surpassed by
an American statesman.
The San Francisco call., 1896-06-17

been this evening elected secretary ne
arose in the meeting and stated
with entire frankness that it was
due TO him and to his colleagues
that he should define his position. which
he proceeded to do by declaring for the
most positive declaration in favor of the
gold standard and that he could not serve
on the committee on resolutions with any
other understanding or expectation.
The result was that the meeting voted
unanimously to sustain him in his con-
tentions in the committee in favor OF
gold.
Included in the gossip of the day is
the statement, credited to well-informed
parties that Marcus A. Hanna has made
known his desire to manage the campaign
during the coming Presidential con
test and that his desire in this
respect being shared by Major Nc
Kinley, it is the intention TO make
Mr.. Hanna the chairman of the Republi-
can National Committee. Coupled with
the faregoing is the further statement that
United States Senator Jacob H. GaIlinger
will be made chairman of the executive
committee of the Republican National
Committee. G. @. CARLTON.

THE CALL HEADQ UARTERS, S,
SOUTHERN HOTEL, ST. LOUIS, Mo,
June 16.-One of the sharp fights before
The committee on rules and order of
Business, is that which viii ensue over
the proposition submitted to this COM
mittee to include as rule the require
ment that the report of the National Com
mittee concerning credentials as delegates
shall be accepted as final by the conven-
ton.
Ii this proposition is adopted by the
rules committee and reported to the con-
yention for ratification it will lead to a
Dig fight. The apparent aim of this
proposed change in the rules for the
government of the convention is to
take away from the committee on
credentials its jurisdiction in settling
contests, although the ostensible object is
to avoid the troubles and delays that may
be encountered if the committee on Gre
dentials shall open up all of the numerous
contests and give hearings to the repre-
sentatives of both sides of each contest,
and then have further vexatious delays
when the cases are reported to the conven-
ton for it's action.
The result OF the CallIOrnla contests,
therefore depends upon the report of the
rules committee and its ratification by
the convention. A very important part
of bhe work that is to be performed by the
committee on resolutions is to steer clear
Of dangerous pitfalls that have been pre-
pared for it.
The members as a rule say their work
will be simple enough after all the ma
terial has been sifted and the committee
comes to the main question of declarin g
clearly and unequivocally in favor Of the
'existing gold Standard" and in opposi-
ton to the free coinage OF silver, except by
an international agreement.
An Eastern member of the committee
on resolutions has submitted an amend
ment to follow the paragraph relating to
an international agreement in these
words: "And we pledge the efforts of the
Republican party to secure such inter
national agreement" This, it is thought,
would have good effect in soothing the
wounded feelings of the silver men and
give them ground for hope that some
thing will be done in the interest of the
white metal

was designated by the Indiana delegation

ST. LOUIS, Mo, June 16-An interest
ing incident occurred to-day during thc
cal! of some "gold standard Eastern del
egstes at the headquarters of the Califor-
MIA delegation.
The conversation naturally turned upon
the only question now agitating the entire
membership of the convention, namely
The composition of the money plank in
the platform to be adopted. The Cali
fornians had demonstrated their position
favorable to silver, when one of the callers
inquired:
''WiIl you walk out of the convention If
the plank does not suit you as certain
other silver people threaten to do?"'
