PoPULIsTs WERE SPLIT UP.
There Were Two Gatherings Under
One Roof Yesterday.

I
| One Roof Yesterday.
| At 10 o'clock yesterday morning there
met at Assembly hall about 100 mem
bers of the Peoples party, headed by =
e. Dempsey and M. e. Murray They
| were surprised to find that the delegates
| under the sway Of Adolph Paradis had
| not shown up. However, they proceed
| ed to elect temporary chairman and
| temporary secretary This done, they
adjourned until o'clock.
| At the hour set for reassembling, the
| other faction was present in force and
had occupied the main hall, whereupon
Mr.. Dempsey and the others, who had
met in the morning, repaired to the
smaller hall, adjoining the main hall.
| The temporary organization was made
permanent and then the following com
mittee was appointed to select delegates
for the state and congressional conven-
ton to be held on Sept. 6: Messrs. j.
McGarr, J. E. johnson, T. M. Phelan, H
c. Haggenmiller, J. F. Kreiger, G. N.
Lamphere, M. E. Murray and Frank
Bowler.
At the same time Messrs. G. N. Lam
phere, A. B. Magdahl, NJ. e. Murray, 7.
E. Johnson and N. c. Hardy were ap-
pointed a committee on platform and
resolutions.
While the committees were in the
committee room selecting delegates and
drafting resolutions Messrs. Lamphere
and. M E. Murray delivered short ad-
dresses. The former confined himself
to generalitfes, but the latter made a
spirited attack on AdoIph Paradis.
cit was high time he declared, "to
free the Peoples party of all Corruption
ists," and he was in favor of throwing
them all out. Paradis was listed as one
of those who were to stump for Van
SAINT.
Mr.. Murray said he had seen Paradfs
taking veters to the primaries In hacks;
where did the money to do this come
from?
John Lima was the best governor the
state had ever had, and had always
shown that he had the interests of the
laboffng classes at heart, and HAD done
more fer them than any governor in re-
cent years had done, anywhere in the
United States.''
Though, misled by Paradis, some Pop
ulists m. gf1t not be In favor OF Lind. the
speaker felt convinced that the conven-
ton he was addressing would send a
full list of delegates to the state convea-
ton, all Of them pledged to support the
present governor.
The committee appointed to select DEL
egates then appeared and reported the
following names, all Of which were ac-
cepted and ratified:
