Midst Great Applause.

CHARLESTON, July 9-When the
Republican state convention re-as-
sembled at o'clock last night, the
credentials committee reported that
there had been but two contests be-
fore 1t, those from Ohio and NIingo
counties, and that in deciding them,
1t had followed the decisions of the
state committee. BY those decisions
the Hearne delegates had been seat
ed in Ohio county and the Shepard
Goody-Koontz delegates in AIingo
the three last being for Scherr.
The committee on permanent or
ganization recommended that the
temporary organization he made per-
manent, which was done by unanim-
Gus vote.
Report on Resolutions.
The resolutions committee made a
report. Ii indorsed the administra-
tion of Roosevelt and the national
platform and candidates, recommend
ed that the legislature pass a local
option law and also submit n prohi-
bition amendment to the people, de-
clared in favor of an anti-injunction
law that would protect all persons
alike and against boycotts and black
lists as being un-American, favored
a measure to prevent undesirable i'm
migration from coming to this
country and measure to preserve
the natural resources OF the country.
The passage of state primary cleo
tion law was promised, embodying
some OF the features OF the Cooper
bill. The
Tax Laws We're Praised
and the administration Of Governor
Dawson iEdorsed. and message OF
greeting and hope for his speedy re-
coyery ordered sent to him at the
sanitarium where he is now seeking
health.
The crowd was 'litte more en-
thusiastic than at lis first meeting,
and during the hearing of the reso-
lutions there were great outbursts of
applause. They we're adopted unan-
imously.
] Nominations for governor being do
.clared in order, Eliott Northcatt, Of
Canell, placed the na5ae of c. w.
Swisher before the convention. He
spoke OF the qualities possessed by
his candidate that fitted him for the
Office of governor, his energy and am
bition that had carried him to his
present high position without the
backing OF wealth or family in
fuence and bespoke for him most
successful administration in the office
OF chief executive Of the state.

PLANKS SELECTED
ON I1VJJ7NCTIONs.
Long Delay on Platform at
Denver-Antis More
Than Third Strong.

DENVER. Colo. July 9-when tho
Democratic national convention tat
11:S5 O'Clock last night adjourned
until II O'Clock this morning after
hours of acrimonious debate over the
report OF the committee on creden-
tials, one snag had been removed
from the channel through which the
candidacy OF Bryan must pass on It's
way to his nomination for the presi-
dency. BY vote announced as 6a5
to 3S7, the convention rejected the
minority report frsm the committee
on credentials and adopted that of
the majority committee. the principal
practical effect OF which was to un-
seat group of contested delegates
from Philadelphia hostile to the can
didacy of Bryan, and more particu-
larly, friendly to the interests of Ma
tional Committeeman Quincy, OF
Plttsburg. In addition the report as
adopted added four to,the representa-
tion of Oklahoma and thus four to
the total strength of the convention.
These four are Bryan men,
Ants More Than Third Strong.
To how great an etxent this vote
really represents the aultimate anti
Bryan strength In the Convention was
an interesting and highly important
Question debated on all sides this
morning. 1t requires a two-thirds
vote to nominate, and 3S7 is COM
fortably more than one-third of
,0O6. Supplanting the ten Guffey
men by ten Bryan men makes a net
difference OF twenty and the addition
of four Bryan men from Oklahoma
would increase the gain to "a, but
even that would leave the anti
Bryan strength more than the third
necessary to prevent his nomination
If this vote had been on the qu1stIon
OF nomination. But 1t was not, and
comparatively few observers this
morning professed to regard this vote
as really a test of the strength of
either side on the question of the
nomination.
There is still enough uncertainty
about it to Intensity the interest, and
the hour. OF converting the session
found an excitement high and in
creasing.
The permanent organization Of the
convention was delayed by the ques-
place can be intelligently dealt with.
1t is expected the address of Repre-
sentative Clayton, of Alabama, as
permanent chairman, will be deferred
until late this morning.

Colo. July 9-The Democratic ma
tional convention resumed It's ses-
sions today with feeling prevailing

sentation OF the partys aspirations
and made a severe arraignment of
President Roosevelt. There were fire.
quent demonstrations and wild en-
thusiasm came from the listening
thousands. suggestions OF the name
of Bryan being an unfailing signal for
a tumultous clamor.
The convention will likely hold sew
eral sessions during the day, with a
probability OF a night session II neces-
sary for the adoption OF platform
and in all likelihood the nomination
OF a presidential standard bearer.
Kern Boom Grows.
The boom OF John w. Kern. OF In
diana, for the vice-presidential nom
ination received fresh impetus today.
1t was announced during the day
that Judge Gray, John Mitchell, labor
leader; Governor Douglass and ex-
Governor Francis, of Missouri, would
not permit their names to be pre-
sented. The Indiana delegation i'm
mediately began to work up senti-
ment for Kern. If they receive en-
couragement they expect a meeting
Will be held tonight with the view Of
making arrangements for the pre-
sentation OF his name to the conven-
ton. His delegation Is solidly be-
hind him and more than a dozei
states have pledged to support him
in the event Gray continues to refuse
to allow his name to be presented.
The report OF the committee recon-
mended Henry D. Clayton, OF Ala
bama, for permanent chairman; Urey
Woodson, of Kentucky, for secretary,
and John 1. Martin, of Missouri, for
sergeant-at-arms. In all other re-
spects the temporary organization was

A committee of three was appoint
ed to escort the permanent chairman
to the platform. Clayton was cheer
ed to the echo when introduced by
Mr.. Bell. Three little girls of Dem
yer in red. white and blue were help
ed to the platform before Clayton be-
gan to speak.
They presented Clayton with large
bunches of American beauties and he
in turn kissed them. A gale of mer-
riment swept through the hall when
some one in the midst of the kissing
called out "Hobson, Hobson." At
1903 Clayton began his address.
