NOT ENTIRELY HARMONIOUS.
THE POPULISTS HAVE TROU-
BLES OF THEIR OWN.
But the County Convention Fol-
lowed the Program Laid
Out For Them.

Very little interest was evlnced In the
results of the Populist County Conven-
tion, which met in Pythian Hall yester-
day morning. The delegates theLl-
selves were Indifferent, and the only
flickers of trouble came from three OF
four violent middle e-of-the-roadefs, VINO
at every stage of the game attempted
to clog the wheels Of the convention py
poking non-fusion sticks between the
spokeS.
No enthusiasm followed the naming
of the candidates. Everything IN the
line of nominations had been definitely
settled days and days ago, and While a
few waits, accompanied by like num-
ber of threats, were uttered by a coun-
try member or two, the surface Of af-
fairs was scarcely ruffied by their ef-
forts.
AS a matter of fact, very little had
been cut out for the Popnlists to DO,
and no slate ever put up by either OF
the old parties was more stanch than
that set UP for them to shy at.
Brooke was a dead sure" thing for
the Twenty-second Assembly District,
and nobody even questioned D. Nc
Kay's nomination for Supervisor for
the First District.
There was considerable talk Of turn
ing down William B. Hamilton, cand1-
date for County Clerk, and it was whls-
pered about that his nomination for
the position would be fought on the
floor Of the convention.
The anti-fusionists did a great deal OF
talking toward the small end Of the
convention, but they were sadly in the
minority, and were beaten at every
turn
Only four candidates were to be
named, and the slate could not be bro
ken As a consequence William B.
Hamilton was named for County Clerk
by acclamation H. n. Bauman, for
County Assessor, Morris Brooke, for AS
semblyman from the Twenty-second
District, and Daniel Mckay, for Super
visor for the First District, ~yere nom
mated without serious opposition.
