OF the crowd did sing. Here is one verse
OF il. and the chorus:

One populist who made a hit at Fri
| day nights session of the convention was
/ Capt. Burnham Of Tennessee, says the
/ Philadelphia Record. This is what he
| made II with. IL referred 10 the demo-
| cratic party as weighing in and wiggling
| out leaving the mind always in doubt,
whether the party making the track was
| going east or coming back"
The convention had just begun, says
| the suns special, when the clerk with
the biggest voice bawled out:
Ladies and gentlemen. Mr.. Greene of
/ Montana has lost his mileage book and
his ticket to the convention"
l ana II $ more imam Z,UJJ miles 10 Mon
| tana." yelled a voice tinged with agony.
| Whether it was Mr. Greene or not did
/ not become known.
One Of the features of the populist
| convention. says the Philadelphia Rec
/ ord's special, has been the pastime Of the
! gallery inmates who spit tobacco juice ana
/ other things on the heads OF the people on
! the main moor of the hall. This was a
! particularly marked feature at the Fri
/ day night session of the convention.
| There was a kick about it, and this morn
! ing the police had orders not to let any
| body in the gallery, but TO cOnfine the
crowd to the main floor. There the past
! time was resumed but instead of splitting
! on peoples heads they spit on each other )
| feet.
He walked around the auditorium
building al, the morning with glum
countenance, says the Philadelphia Rec
/ ord's special He did not seem TO care
/ whether the convention nominated Bry-
| an, Debs, Mrs. Lease, or Barney Gibbs.
| It's just like this he said, yesterday
/ was so blamed hot that l thought I'd get
! up corner on them palm leaf fans /
| gathered the boys together last night and
! bought up every fan in sight. 1t cost Jest
| Si9 40. This morning the sun was under
| kiver. ] sold one fan to a blind man tibet
| thought he was warm, but the rest is on
my hands and my political enthusiasm is
| clean gone. "
