Joseph Sel1wood's aggregation
met in the council chamber about
2 O'Clock Tuesday afternoon, and
with the exception of the contest
between McInnis and Vail was a
sort of cut and dried affair, as was
to be expected. Cook county was
not represented, Lake county had
two delegates and St. Louis 80.
George r. Laybourn called the con-
vention to order, w. w. Browne, of
Biwa blk, was elected chairman and
Don r. McLennan secretary. P. G.
Schmidt was nominated on the first
ballot, receiving 80 votes out of 36
For the second place P. r. Vail re-
ceived the nomination on the third
ballot, receiving II out of 40. The
first ballot was tie between Vail
and McInnis, each receiving 20
votes. The ticket was completed
by the nomination of George r.
Laybourn in the first ballot, he re-
ceiving II votes to eight for A. L.
Devore, six for A. E. Chantler and
five for G.. 7. Cranda1l. The chair
man was authorized to appoint
legislative committee of seven

The gold bug aggregation
moved heaven ana eartn TO get
the faithful into line on the oc-
casion of the Thurston demon
stration. Several different parties
counted the mammoth" demon
stration and all came within a
half dozen Of Teach other. One of
their count made at the Palladio
corner revealed 385, exclusive of
boys and members of the bands.
And at least % per cent. of the
men in line are known to their
friends to be intending to vote
for Towne, and were taking part
in the procession only because
their situations depended on
their supposed loyalty to the
tory cause.

A LETTER FROM GLADSTONE
Further Condemnation of the Sultan and
His Abonimable Tools.

London October 19-St. James Hall
was packed with an audience of 1000
people tonight, a large proportion of
whom were women, to take part in
tho demonstration Of protest against
the Armenian massacres. Nearly 1000
people applied for admission TO the
hall. Ten peers, twenty-eight bishops
and a number Of deans and nOl-cOn-
lformist ministers wrote expressing
their regret at their inability to attend
the meeting.
Intense enthusiasm was manifested
by those present. especially over the
reading of a letter from Mr.. Glad
stone. In this letter Mr.. Gladstone eX-
pressed the hope that the meeting would
worthily crown the Armenian meetings
of the past two months which he said,
were without a parallel during his pO-
litidal life.
The object, Mr. Gladstone said fur
ther. was TO strengthen Lord Sails,
bury's hands and to stop the series OF
masacres. which was probably still un-
finished, and to provide against their
renewal. as he believed that Lord Sails
bury would use his powerful position
fer the best. Personally he objected in
tha strong gest manner TO abridging
LORD Salisbury's discretion by laying
down this or that as things he ought
not 10 do Il was wild paradox with
J5ut the support of reason or history to
say that the enforcement of treaty
rights 10 stop systematic massacres, to-
gq.her with effective security against

ti1ittes of one or more Of the powers.

PUT YOUR FLAGS OUT.

Chairman Jones Designates October 81,
as Flag Day For all Who Desire to Pre-
serve the Country's Honor.
Chicago, October 10. - Chairman
Jones, of the Democratic National Com
mittee, issued the following appeal lac
this afternoon.
Democratic National Headquarters,
Chicago. October 19.
The American flag has always been
the emblem of national honor, and it
Twill always remain so. It is too sacred
10 be prosti.u,ed to partisan purposes,
as has been attempted for the first time
in this campaign. lis influence has al
ways potent for the advancement Of all
that is best in our government, for it ap-
tpeals to every sentiment Of patriotism
and national pride.
l therefore suggest that on Saturday,
October 81, all those who desire to pre-
serve the country's honor and independ-
ence, as it came to us from the fathers,
who believe in the rights of every man,
r.ch or poor to cast a free and untram-
melled ballot; WAC oppose government
by corporations and the coercion of
voters. and desire that real and genuine
prosperity may once again return to
bless our people, display the national
,colors at their homes, their places of
business and wherever else they may
'be seen in order that voters whose hearts
are for their country may be cheered
and their purposes strengthened and
that those who are wavering may take
courage of their patriotism to perform
their duty as citizens. TO the end that
the government of the people, by the
people and for The people, shall not per-
fish from the earth"
