OF the delegates and the spectators
were the worst in tho history Of any
previous National Convention. As a
result there was indescrfbabio confusion
about the many entrances TO the ram

great part OF their time seeking shelter
from . rain that was falling when tho
doors were thrown open at 10 o'clock.
JEFFERSON AND WASHINGTON

The bis bArniike building had boon
made spick and span for the occasion.
The ateei girders had been covered With
Dchrs coiored cheesecaoth. while the
girders were decorated with yellow
cloth. Yellow ana white bunting was
suspended from the roof caves.
Directly behind the speakers plat
form was an oil painting Of Thomas

The delegated representatives

the republican party in authority
