TOWNE IN LINCOLN
Leader Of Silver Republicans and
Democratic Chairman Jones
Confer with w. ]. BRYAN.

Senator j, X. Jones, Of Arkansas,
chairman Of the Democratic national
committee, arrived at Lincoln, Neb.,
from Kansas City Saturday night and
later held an extended conference with
w. j. Bryan, Charles A. Towne and
George Fred Williams.
In talking about the vice presidential
situation, Senator Jones said he hoped
and believed that in case Mr.. Towne
withdrew his name as a Populist can.
didate for the vice presidency, the
national committee Of that party would
indorse the Democratic ticket.
''We are all Independent" contin-
ued Senator Jones, "and like to carry
to successful conclusion our own plans.
But every one who is not with the Re-
publicans ehould be against them, and
l cannot help thinking that evry man
who is in earnest for the success of w.
j. Bryan should unite with US. Of
course if Mr.. Towne does not with
draw, fusion on the electoral tickets
VI VIC fhIlOub bbhlob buOulu huu pIODh-
bly, will be arranged.
No formal announcement will be
made by Charles A. Towne of his de-
cision in regard to the Populist nomi-
nation for the vice presidency until the
Populist committee gives him formal
notification of his nomination. This
will be in about ten days. Mr.. Towne
said that he would make public his de-
cision at that time and would issue an
address giving his reasons for the &C.
tion he takes. What that action Will
be he refused to say.
"But my course is perfectly clear
now," said Mr.. Towne. 81 have al
ready talked the matter over with sew
eral of the Populist leaders. The sub
ject will also probably come up
though in an informal way, at the
meeting of the advisory committees. "
Mr.. Towne spent nearly the entire
day Sunday with Mr.. Bryan, taking
dinner with him, and later, in a part!
which included ex-Congressman Hart
man, of Montana, and George Free
Williams, of Massachusetts,, driving
out TO Mr.. bryau's farm.

Hill, and echoed back from Sierra'S
sunset slope, and that reverberates
among the pine-clad now-capped hills
of the north, and rises up from the
slumbering fower-scented savannahs
of the south; and that name is the
name Of William Jennings Bryan, her
best loved son.
The nomination was seco nded by
David B. Hill, of New York, z. B.
Perkins, of Dial as, Texas, Tenant
Lomax, of Alabama, w. B. Moore, of
North Carolina, Senator Daniel, Of
Virginia, David Overmeyer, of Kansas,
W. @. Baker. of Ohio, Ex-Governor
Pattison, of Pennsylvania, Governor
Benton McMillin, of Tenn essee, and
others.
A ringing cheer followed the call of
"Hawaii," and when John H. Wise, of
that delegation, rose the convention
demanded that he take the platform,
which he did amid great applause.
Gentlemen of the convention, he
said, "the delegates of Hawaii have
come 1900 miles to attend this con-
vention, and last night she cast the
winning vote for 16 to ! in the COM
mittee meeting"
Mrs. Cohen, of Utah, came next and
was received with terrific applause
She seconded the nomination of Mr.
Bryan in behalf of Utah, her speech
concluding the nominating speeches
AS the roll call proceeded the shouts
of approval of the unanimity of the
vote seemed to increase.
The list of states aud territories wal
completed with the calling of the ter
ritory of Hawaii.
The announcement of Chairman
Richardson that Mr. Bryan had bee
nominated for president of the United
States was received with great ap
plause.
As the people already we're Leaving
the hall, Chairman Richardson an
nounced at 1858 that the convention
was adjourned until 1890 o'clock Fri
day morning.
The Camden chronicle. (Camden, Tenn.) 1890-current, 1900-07-13

Chairman Richardson called con-
vention to order at 11:03 Thursday
morning, and pending a wait on report
of committee on resolutions, speech
making was the order
At 12:47 the convention adjourned
until $3.50.
It was not until 4 o'clock, however,
that Chairman Richardson, turning
from a conference with Governor Nc
MILAN and Senator White, raped the
convention to order. The platform
committee, headed by Senator Jones,
D. J. Campeau, Senator Tillman and
Judge Van Wyck, had just pushed
their way through the dense throngs
and proceeding to the platform had
taken seats thanking the chairman. Mr..
Richardson appealed long and vainly
for order. The portly form of Senator
Jones, silver haired and serious, ad
vanced to the front of the stage and
IN clear voice he announced tina
Senator Tlllman would read the docu
ment.
A dramatic incident of the day wa
presented when Webster Davis, of Mis-
souri,, until recently Republican as
sistant secretary Of the interior, made
announcement of his purpose to vote
for aud support the Democratic nomi
nee for the presidency. The Davi
speech was the great surprise of tn
day. Nobody knew it was coming.
In announcing his intention of sup
porting the Democratic party and it
| ticket, Mr.. Davis said with great en-
| phasis:
ST stand upon this platform an
shall support William J. Bryan"
As Mr.. Davis concluded the ban
struck up "Hail to the Chief" az
while it was rendering the air he hel
an impromptu reception upon th
platform.
When few degrees Of the nois
had been silenced, he said;
''The next business of the CONVEX
ton is the nomination of a candida
for president of the United States. I'll
secretary will call the roll of states.

w. d. Oldham, of Nebraska, then,
in an eloquent speech, presented the
name Of Mr.. Bryan to the convention.
Mr.. Oldham closed as follows:
"With the issues now clearly drawn,
no doubt remains as to the name of
our candidate. On that question we
are a reunited Democracy.
ALREADY worthy allies differing
from us rather in name than faith
have shouted for our gallant leader
again, and every state aud territory

Russell H. Conwel and wife, of Philadelphia, arrived in the city Wednesday night and registered at the Trulock. Mir. Conwell lectured to packed house at the Institute last night. He is one of the wittiest, most original, interesting and in- structive lecturers that has ever fill ed an engagement in the Institute course. He held the attention of his hearers for over two hours and not one dull, unintsresting sentence was uttered by him. He is certainly quick in learning rbe needs of town and especially so on this occasion. We are confident that his most ex- cellent talk would have brought better results had it been delivered to the Pine Bluff Commercial League.

from Jacksonville to Columbus, made a
stop of one hour here this morning. A
large crowd awaited the arrival of Mr.
Bryan at the Central depot and called for
speeches. Mr.. Bryan laughingly replied
that in the home town of the late lamented
Speaker Charles Frederick Crisp, it would
not be necessary for him to make a Dem
ocratic speech, as true principles of party
had long since been instilled here by that
great American his steadfast friend. Mr.
Bryan left the party for half an hour and
was driven in the carriage of State Sena-
tor Dodson to the Crisp residence, where
he paid his respects to the members of
