He Asks Nebraska Republicans to
Rally to McKinley's Support.

OMAHA, March 4-Senator Thurston to-
day made public an appeal to Nebraska Re-
publicans In favor OF sending a Mckinley
delegation to St. Louis. 1t warns voters
that the candidacy OF Gen. Charles Mander-
son. of Nebraska, Is designed to defeat
Mckinley I'm the interest of other candidates
and not with the idea of Senator Mander-
son being elected. He concludes: rs there
any reason to believe that a majority of
Republicans in any district of the United
States outside OF Nebraska. now favors or
intends to support q Nebraska candidate?
know of no such outside support and
have not yet heard it claimed that any
such sentiment exists in States outside OF
Nebraska as indicates a single vote for
Nebraska candidate. / ask in all candor
and fairness, has any one man. however
distinguished. any right TO ask those Re-
pUblicans who naturally and OF their own
free choice desire the nomination of Will
liam Mckinley. to assist in defeating him.
until at least some assurance can be given
of some outside support for a home candi
date? III the sixteen votes from Nebraska
are to be used to defeat Mckinley let 1t not
be under the cover OF false pretense which
masks the real design. If Mckinley is de-
feated and the Nebraska voters contribute
to that defeat. those who participate in ii
must accept full responsibility

to Select Contestants.
THURSTON TO NEBRASKANS

SUPPORT TgE OHIO MAN.
Plan of Sending Uninstructed Dele
gates from Chicago Knocked Out
by Friends OF Mckinley.

JACKSON, Miss. March 4.-The State Re-
publican convention to-day, called TO select
delegates to the st. Louis convention, was
a stormy affair, as a result two sets of
delegates will ask for admission to the
Mound City Hall. t. B. Mosely, chairman,
called the convention to order at IL o'clock.
The roll OF the ninety members of the
executive committee was called. showing a
full attendance. The report OF the commit
tee was a voluminous document, giving a
list of delegates and alternates for every
county In the State. 1t was announced that
B.. X Bruce, ex-senator from Mississippi.
and p. S. b. Pinchback. OF Louisiana, were
at the door and. after some opposition
10 Bruce. who is a delegate to the conven-
tiol. they were admitted.
w. Z. Mollison, Lynch man, read a
minority report, recommending the seating
OF Lynch delegates in fifteen or twenty
counties, the charge being made that the
contests were all fraudulent. John McGill
moved the adoption of the minority report.
James Hill moved to lay the minority re-
port on the table. John Lynch was recog-
nized to speak in explanation Of the minority
report. He denounced the action of the
subcommittee, which he declared was
packed. Hirelngs had been sent around
over the State TO get up contests where
none should have existed, robbing the Re-
publicans of their rights, etc. James Hill
replied that the members OF the subcom-
mittee were honorable men, some Of them
able lawyers and their action was right;
that all the committee wanted now was to
vote. He,. therefore, moved to table the
minority report. The roll was called on
the adoption Of this report and it was de-
feated by vote of 40 TO ga Hill victory.
The report of the subcommittee was then
adopted. After opposition by the Lynch
faction resolution was adopted TO exclude
contestants from the hall The committee
then adjourned until p. m.
At O'clock the Lynch crowd some two
hundred strong. went in body to the con-
vention hall and demanded admission with
out tickets which was refused. They then
withdrew in q body. carrying Lynch on
their shoulders to Beneficiary Hall, where
they went into session. The Hill convention
