CONVENTION HALL, CHICAGO. July S.
There was 0 repetition of the offensive
scenes of Yesterday SO far as admission
to the convention hall was concerned.

presented themselves. In that way
the sergeant-at-arms escaped the
curses which fell thick upon him
Tuesday at the hands Of those who

keep the doors closed up to the last
moment The rows of spectators seats
were early filled, without pushing, con-

The business of the convention was
to have begun at 10 a. m, but punctual'
ity is not the cardinal virtue of such
assem- blies, and for an hour after that
time the thousands of spectators were
entertained more pleasantly with mu-
steal selections, interspersed with cho-
ruses, performed by an excellent band
stationed in the gallery back Of the
platform.
There were but few demonstra tions
in recognition of public favorites as
they entered the hall. One of them
was started-with not much spirit of
enthusiasm-for Bryan, Of Nebraska,
''1he Boy Orator Of the Platte,' who
with his fellow silver delegates from
that state, had gained a point by the
report of the committee on credentials
admitting them and excluding their
gold contestants.

and announced that its proceedings would be

Senator Martin, OF Kansas, was recognized,
and moved an informal recess OF five minutes
to permit ex-1ov. Hogg OF Texas to address
the convention. The motion was adopted, but
a stray band in the gallery beyond the reach OF
the chairman's bell or signals kept on playing
"Dixie" for nearly ten minutes before it could
be stopped.

When Gov. Waller finished Charles Thomas
OF Colorado was recognized. and spoke for the
suoption OF the minority report and the SUBJ

committee had always reported in accord with

mi. Thomas concluded with an argument
that the adoption Of the minority report was
not against but In accordance with demo.
cratic precedent.
Hon. Charles Z. Waller, Of Alabama. next
took the platform in support of the minoritv
report. He dtsclaimed any intention by the

70 years, aud western and southern democrats

friends thought they were entitled to this nom

grave principles were involved in the question
now presented. Democratic traditions were to

Hand county republicans present
to the republicans of South Dakota
the name of Charles Thomson, our
present efficient county auditor, for
their consideration at Aberdeen on
July Sth for the nomination ofSecre-
tary OF State, believing him to be III
every way qualified for that posi-
ton, and that his name would
strengthen the ticket.
Mr.. Thomson was among the piO-
neers of this section, coming here in
1888, and has passed through the
experiences familiar to so Tany, OF
farming in the summer and teaching
in the winter. He was born andraiS-
ed in Monroe county, Wisconsin, re-
moved to Buena, Vista Co., Ia, in
1876, where he resided until
1888, when with his brother, Alex
Thomson removed to Hand county
and opened up a farm, his brother
being Il victim of the memorable
blizzard of 1888.
At the age of Al years Charles
Thomson is a careful, studiOus man
OF affairs, having served as county
commissioner for three years, and is
now filing his second term as audi
tor OF Hand county. He is temper
ate in all things, well educated, lev
el-headed, and noted for his rugged
honesty OF purpose. Although fol-
lowing mainly through life the occu-
patton of a farmer, Mr.. Thomson is,
nevertheless, one of the best stump
speakers in this section of the state,
and even when Hand county was
anti-republican he was elected audi,
tor on the republican ticket. He is
a pushing, working republican, and
is given credit for great assistance
two years ago in bringing Hand coun,
ty back into the republican column.
The republicans Of Hand county, in
convention assembled, unanimously
accorded him the privilege of select
ing his own delegation to Aberdeen,
where he goes free from any entan-
clements, a clean, able man, who
will, if honored by his party, be q
credit to the party and the state.
