and. These are wired with stiff heavy
galvanized wire much like that used
for pail bales. and not less than eigh-
teen inches is used for each label.
Hooks are turned in the ends of each
Wire before they are taken to the field.
A pail of pure white lead we'll thinn-
ed with oil, is taken TO the field with Ahe
labels. The labels are written upon
with very soft lead pencil; the label
is dipped into the paint; the wire is
placed about a conspicuous limb, and
the hooks in the ends joined with a
pair of pliers The paint at first almost
completely obscures the writing, but
some of it drips off and the remainder
dries in, SO that the record becomes
bright and the soft pencil marks are
indeIGbly preserved, while the label re-
mains white. If the paint is brushed on
the soft writing will be blurred. If
in time the wood becomes gray the
label can be dipped in the white lead
again without removing it from the
free. The heavy, stiff wire insures the
safety Of the label against boys and
workmen, as it cannot be removed ex-
cept with pincers, The large loop al
lows of the growth of the branch, and
the label hangs so low it can be seen
at glance. The label is large enough
to allow of a complete record of the
name, place of purchase, age and other
matters, and it is readily found.

replied that ne did not oppose the ap-
/ polntment of a. committee to confer
with the Populists, but he thought it
would be wise to have smaller COM
mittee to see if the Populists would
agree to select a similar committee.
Mr.. Foster, of Missouri, said he had
been appointed one of a committee by
the national committee to confer with
the Pooulist committee, and it had
been decided that more representa-
i've committee be appointed.
1t had been ascertained that the Pop
ltlsts were anxious to confer.
The general trend of all the speeches
was that the great object was to Sc
cure an endorsement of Bryan and
SewaH. AS every mention of the Demo-
cratic nominees was made the delegates
cheered. The motion was at length car
rled by a viva voce vote. The roll of
the states was called for the names
OF the men selected for the conference
committee.
The convention them adjourned until
10 o'clock tomorrow morning.

Credentials Committee.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, July 22.-The Popu
list committee on credentials was IN
session AL afternoon after the adiournl
ment Of the convention and during thu
greater part of the night. The Colorado
contest, involving the seats of 40 dele&
gates from that state, was first dis
posed of. 1t resulted IN the seating Cd
the Patterson, or regular delegation.
by vote of q to A. The principal
basis OF the fight against this delega-
uon was that it was more Democratic
than Populistic, and direct charges
were made to the effect that Mr. Pat
terson. the head Of the delegation, was
in the habit of conserving with Demo-
Gratis and was at heart anything but
a Populist. Mr.. Patterson appeared i'm
mis- own behalf and in the interest of
his delegation, maintaining his party
hdeilty and giving instances of his sup
port of the POpulist cause even wher6
he differed from the nominees oa
questions of party policy
The contests of Cook county, Illinois,
covering twenty-five seats, were COM
promised after a prolonged hearing by
seating both delegations, each to hava
half votes. These are the two principal
contests, and having disposed of them,
there Is no doubt the committee will
be prepared to bring in it's report when
the convention meets at 10 o'clock to-
morrow. At midnight the COMMITTEES
was proceeding with the hearings in
the minor contests.
The result OF the Colorado contest is
a victory for the Bryan men and thai
in Illinois for the anti-Bryanites.

Made IL Mistake.

ST. LOUIS. July 22.-The middle of
the road men, through their steering
committee, took action tonight whicA
will probably have a very important
effect ON the convention. Early in the
evening they selected Ignatius Don
nelly for their candidate for permanent
chairman and sent a committee to noti-
fy him of his selection.
Mr.. Donnelly accepted, and it was
given out. Later, the steering COM
mittee held another meeting and Sc
lected j. E. Campion, of Maine, as
their candidate for permanent chair
man. The committee realized it was in
q very awkward position. having noti-
fed Donnelly and secured his accep-
lance, but the reasons giving for SUBJ
shutting Campion are that the Mime
sofa delegation and the delegations
which the steering committee repre-
scented made great protest against
Donnetly's selection, many declaring
they would not vote for him. It was
also stated by members Of the com
mittee that Donuelly was a possible
candidate for president, and ought not
to be presented for permanent chair
man. It was also stated that his Sc
lection was very obnoxious to the anti
Catholic element, as it was believed he
was a Catholic. Many of the leaders os
the middle of the road men think
great mistake has been made and that
the action of the committee will cost
the middle Of the road men many votes
in the convention.

as the convention adjourned and dis
cussed a line of action.
