wing of the party. The four delegates
at large are pronounced champions Of
the white metal, and the entire dele
cation to Chicago except those dele
gates from the First district, are silver
men. The platform declares for free
silver and nothing else, as 1t was made
in line. with the overwhelming senti-
ment of the convention. The contest in
the First district was decided in favor
of gold standard delegates, who chose
Messrs Stackhouse and Wherry dele
gates to Chicago, with instructions
in accordance with the sentiment of
the caucus.
Elk Gov. Boies goes to Chicago as
delegate at largo, and is chairman of
the delegation. His reception by the
convention was little less than an ova-
tion, and his name, when mentioned
by speakers. was the signal for contin-
uous cheering. His speech at the
afternoon session of the convention was
ono of the chief features of the gather
ing.
The delegation was instructed to use
all honorable means to secure his nom
ination for president by the national
