CONVENTION AFTERMATH.
Some Of the Features Of WabaSs0 C0nven-
ton on June 18th.

The county convention at Wabas
so grew interesting at the opening
of the AFTERNOON session. The re-
port of the committee on credentials
was adopted, the temporary organl
zation was made permanent, and the
committee on resolutions sent in its
document, which became part of the
convention records. Then Repre-
sentative Clague moved that all
speeches be limited to three min
utes. This was move to cut off
the Collins takers James A. Lar
son, Andrew ID. Stewart and
Charles T. Howard, and instantly
the former was on his feet protest
ing against this motion, which he
declared was to cut off the freedom
of speech, of free thought and Of
reasoning, and said that if the fol-
lowers of Mr.. Dunn we're afraid to
listen TO their arguments their
cause was poor indeed. Mr.. Stew
art likewise protested against the
pad-locks on the Collins orators,
contending that freedom of speech
was one of the things our forefathers
died for in the revolutionary war.
There were calls for the question,
Kisses. groans and the like, and
finally j. NJ. Thompson, from the
rear of the hall, moved the previ-
Gus question, and it was ordered,
the Dunn followers voting for it and
the Collins followers voting against
it, to a man. The three minute rule
was then put in vogue.
