grown up in the party. He said that
he would always stand by the Democ-
racy Of Andrew Jackson, Thomas JEFF
lerson. and the Republicanism of Abra
ham Lincoln. He was acting with the
Democratic party because he believed
it was right.
w. Fl Cole thought the city was get
ting too much. He said that Mr.. How.
ard is farmer, and will work for the
farmers interests
W. H. Cole moved that the delegates
present cast the entire vote of the dele
cation. Mr.. Comstock opposed this, as
some who had been admitted as delegates
had not been elected at caucuses and
sh ould not be given power to act for entire
townships. 1t was not good Democratic
policy to vote by proxy.
Mr.. Champlin took another view of the
question.
The motion was declared lost.
Mr.. Champlin called for division, and
the motion was lost, II to Fl.
The roll was called and showed S. dele
gates to be present.
An informal ballot was taken and re-
suited as follows:
Thro, 80
Howard, 70
Mr.. Champlin moved that the election
of Mr.. Thro be made by reclamation, and
this was carried,
The appointment of county COM
mittee was taken up, and J. E. Porter
spoke in favor of following 80 years prece-
dent by putting off the selection until the
nominating convention.
