The Twin Falls times. [volume] (Twin Falls, Idaho) 1905-1916, 1908-07-16

| Mr. Dunn who was to make the |
| speech in which the greatest interest
was felt by the delegates and specta-
tors, is scarcely of middle age. His
clean cut. determined look, clean |
shaver face is surrounded by dark |
brown hair, which owing to the en-
phatic manner in which he executed |
his speech with his head, was soon
touching the center of his forehead |
He spoke cearly and with pleasing |
manner of delivery.
AS Mr.. Dunn proceeded, almost |
every allusion he made to the char |
acter of Mr.. Bryan was enthusiastical- |
ly applauded, although he had not yet |
mentioned the name of the Nebraskan. |
The plaudits, however, were not long
continued, and theirtransient charac-
ter seemed to promise that the record |
breaking demonstration of yesterday
in honor of Mr.. Bryan would not be
equal in duration even. If proved to
be of equal intensity.
When Dunn declared that his candi-
date was the chief militant democrat
Of the country, the convention broke
in with wild cheers. The ever ready
flags were tossed aloft and a roar of
applause swept through the hall.
, While the cheering was at it's height
a white dove was set loose from the
gallery and flew across the conven-
, ton hall, which the delegates hailed
, with great enthusiasm and cheered as
long as it was in sight.
Mr.. Dunn brought out the name of
: William Jennings Bryan with intense
= dramatic force and the response from
the great throng was electric. The
1 delegates sprang up the galleries fol-
s lowed suit, and the demonstration was
/. under way in manner that for the
= time being at least promised to rival
yesterdays exhibition of enthusiasm.
: A few moments after the cheering
a began an immense oil painting of Mr..
n Bryan was lowered from behind a
: monster American shield which had
8 reposed over the chairman's desk ever
" since the convention began. The APP
2 pearance of the picture raised the
g pich of the outburst to veritable
"a pandemonium. 1t was not long then
d before the scenes of yesterdays pro-
m longed demonstration were renewed.
"a The delegates poured from the con
n vention floor onto the already over
10 crowded stage. James Dahlman o.
- Oklahoma, a Bryan leader, jumped tt
n the secretary's desk and motionet
AZ the throng forward. The state stand
as ards were grouped about the platform
n People in the galleries and the dele
az gates were on their feet waving thu
- thousands of flags and cheering them
selves hoarse.
Many of the New York delegate
stood and cheered with the others, blu
an the majority remained seated.
Only six banners were missing froI
the states in the parade through tn
aisles after the grooping at the stag
had broken into procession. Thes
n were Maryland, Minnesota, New Yorl
es Georgia, New Jersey, and Delaware

in been brought into the hall wei

up The band in the balcony lent i
OIL share to the celebration of the Bryf
les followers and the blare of horns, Il
beat of drums and crash of symba
of could be heard above the din of Il
ing shouting hundreds on the floor al
vas the thousands in the galleries.
les The cheering swept the vast aut
I'M torium in the great noise waves whit
ion echoed back and forth in a volur
ing that increased and died away alte
nately.
to- The standards OF New York al
0o+ Georgia were quickly made the objeo
cot of attack and the crowd endeavored
md drag them up and carry them in t
nd parade that was going everywhere
'AN the hall. Strong hands, howeve
held the poles and determined M
.ir- were gathered close about them.
uef was evident that they could only
1te' secured after fight, and the paradil
lis enthusiasts passed along only to
ced soon succeeded by others. The m

ON held their seats throughout the de-
ley, Ionstration and the standards nev
syl- moved.
Other states that kept their marke

att the objects of attack as were M
mo- York and Georgia, were Delewa
New Jersey and Minnesota.
