Fifth: That the Nye County Dem
ocratic Central committee shall have
authority to leave the name of any

sessment hereinbefore provided for.
Bert Mcintosh Immediately upon
the secretary finishing reading of the
same scented trouble and moved that
it be taken up seriatim. Consider
able wrangling was INDUCED in and
on motion of delegate whose name
was unknown and who announced
that the preamble didn't amount to
anything any way, consideration of
the first section was taken up.
George Thatcher said it was
against Democratic principles to have
gag rule and that it was the privilege
of any one to get into the ring and
run for office.
Chairman Smith here took hand
and said the debts of the last cam
paign were not paid. whereupon
Thatcher responded and the chair
subsidized.
At this juncture Boss McFadden
saw a conflict impending and tried
to pour oil upon the troubled waters
and said he wanted everybody nomi-
mated at this 'corkus."
]. J. McQuillan was brief and to
the point. He arose in all his state
ly majesty and turning his Webster
ian countenance to the audience,
waved his arms and emitted the fol-
lowing: "It must not; it shall not
prevail"
/ Mcintosh then took issue with
Scheld, who also had something to
!, say. Both gentlemen at this point
J were making points of order which
were not sustained by the chair.
| Key Pittman wanted principles
and not candidates, and thought that
any man had right to go to the
} convention. Each man should be
: picked out, labeled and told to go on
his way and sin no more. In the
2 course of his remarks Mr.. Pittman
= referred to the friends of Mcintosh,
} whereupon Mcintosh. who is nothing
: if not parliamenterian, claimed the
E floor upon a question of personal
: privilege and proceeded to castigate
a Mr.. Pittman to a fare-you-well.
t AS the fourth section was reached
S in which every nominee was required
e to pay $3.50 before he was placed
upon the official ballot, there was &
: dead silence, save for a tune called
Y go Chase Yourself" which was be
: ing played by the Tonopah brass
n band while practicing next door.
n A motion to adjourn was mad'
: from 100 different Threats at thi
juncture, but the chairman of thu
# finance committee gave notice tina
# unless the $3.50 was deposited in thu
r hands of the chief of police before
7. Saturday night-bing for him-an'
I. his name would not appear on the of
/ fetal ballot. The resolutions wer
k then adopted, including the preambl
4 as a whole. An invitation was the
d extended to the assembled Democrat
IS to append their names to the role 0
l. the new Democratic club. Tn
d audience held aloof until the speake
a explained that it wouldn't cost Their
er anything and then there was ma
l. rush and everybody wanted to sig
