Programme of the Convention.
The probable procedure in the conven-
| ton will result I'm series OF interesting
sessions each day, from tho opening Tues
day until adjournment Saturday, or later
| Those familiar with the situation think II
not improbable that the convention may
| continue beyond the week. 1t will be
called to order at IL o'clock Tuesday by
| Chairman Carter The day will he con
| sumed in the reading of the call, the in
| stalling OF temporary officers and the ap-
pointment Of committees on permanent
organization and order OF business, and
on resolutions and credentials.
IL Is not known whether Chairman Car
! ter will make any remarks in opening
the convention. 1t is safe to say that
the temporary chairman he presents TO
the convention will make the best speech
of which he is capable. The varied pro
| ceedinus of this session and the session
which will follow in the evening VIII
probably be interspersed with oratory'
Tuesday the report of the committee on
permanent organization and order oil busi-
ness will probably be presented ana act
| cd upon and the permanent officers Will
take charge of the convention.
| Thurston Permanent Chairman.
The permanent chairman will be the
Hon. John Nj. Thurston OF Nebraska ana
the temporary chairman &. w. Fairbanks
of Indiana. Both of these gentlemen are
far-famed orators and the temporary
chairman will on taking up the gavel un-
dertake TO deliver the speech of his life.
II is safe TO say that pending the receipt
of the report Of the committee on creden-
,ials the sessions OF Wednesday and
Thursday and possibly Friday will be de
voted TO general convention business, In
terspersed with oratorical efforts by Ia
NOUS orators of the Republican party.
At all of the sessions it is probable thal
resolutions will be received and referred
| TO the committee on resolutions Win oi
without reading or debate, as the conven
tion may direct. Whether the importan'
money question will be precipitated II
the convention before the report Is re
ceiyed from the committee on resolution
is questionable. The tension on TN
question Is So great that the discussion
liable to be preciptated at any time anu
threatened by some silver men
