Arizona republican., 1908-07-08

Bell of California, was another sig nal for an enthusiastic outbursIN He came forward amid a storm of tri bute. In a strong, far-carrying voice and easy gesture, he delivered lis opening address, a full hour long, with resounding passages. 2 demand for the fighting of public wrongs. punctuated with yells as some phrase tickled the fancy of the throng.
 RESTRAINED ENTHUSIASM. :.
 It was noticeable that great ap- plause came from the delegates at Bells impassioned declaration that the writ of injunction shall not be turned into an instrument Of op- pression. Again there was uproarous applause as he arraisned the .epuD- lican campaign contributions without a cash register"
 After referring to Tait as the "hi- sected candidate" and demanding but one man in the White House at time" he adroitly turned the speech into a panegyric for Bryan. his ref erence to the Nebraska leader bring ing forth a tumultuous demonstra- ton.
 The appointment of committees vas quickly disposed of. For q ploment the Pennsylvania row threatened to throw the convention into wild con fusion. The sta.e presented two sets of officers, representing the contend ing factions. Ollie James of Ken lucky, voicing the Bryan sentiment, endeavored to refer the fight to the credentials committee. Against this, Col. Guffey and his lieutenants. pale and gesticulating wildly, sought to interpose protest. But it was of no avail. For a time pandemonium pre- vailed. And then the smooth running machinery consigned the question to the credentials committee, where Bryan's adherents are supreme and the Guffey forces retired, full of wrath and disgust.
 The presentation of resolutions of respect to the memory of Cleveland brought to the front two notable figures, Judge Parker of New York, the democratic candidate four years Iago, and Governor Francis of Mis- souri. one of the surviving members of Cleveland's cabinet. The resolu- tion adopted emanated from Bryan's friends and was presented by l. N. Dunn of Nebraska, who will make the nominating speech for Bryan. They were no sooner read than shouts of Parker, Parker" showed the generous temper of the conven- tion towards the former leader.
 Judge Parker was prevailed upon to mount the platform where with resonant voice he read his own res olutions of tribute to Cleveland, clos ing with a tactful concession to the Bryan forces by seconding the reso- lutions presented by them.
 Governor Francis tribute to his former chief breathed a spirit of per sonal association and deep admira- tion. With the adoption of the res olutions the convention adjourned until noon tomorrow.
