where shortly we arrived at good
breakfast time and registered up at
the Edwards hotel which of course
was the storm center of the political
situation on the democratic conven-
ton, but it was couple OF hours be-
fore the clerk could assign us to a
room as the city was crowded with
convention guests and hotels taxed
to full capacity.
Pretty soon III drifted our associ-
ate delegate from Greene County,
j. f. Green in company with l.. G.
Helms, delegate from George county.
Then there was Mack Dorsett and
DIR. David Valley from Perry coun-
ty. Stanton w. Davis (who taught
the State Line school the expired
term) and Dan Taylor from Wayne
county. From Jake we first learned
that E. j. Bowers was on the ground
and seeking the honor of becoming a
delegate from the sixth congression-
al district; an honor that several
years back while Congressman he
once declined and E. p, Harrison
went in his stead. In fact there was
some stir among the delegates OF
the several congressional districts
getting settled on whom they would
choose as their state committeeman
leach district was entitled to three
Of these) and the two delegates to
the national convention at ST.. Louis.
Then the big excitement was the
possibility of a contest on the con
vention floor proper for the tempo

Conner, who had been named the
night before by the old state eXecu-
tive committee, and B. p. Harrison
who had come down the day before
from Washington and was active on
the ground in the manoeuverings go
ing on.
1t seemed to be the prevailing SEN
timent that some harmonious solu-
ton be found and it was, though
some OF the small fry like US did not
fluffy find out till the convention was
under way up in the legislative hall,
when we heard some speaking was
that in that agreement" from which
cue it was soon aseertalned that the
big boys had arranged things" IN
some of the upstairs rooms of the
Edwards hotel while the balance of
us fellows were getting acquair ted
downstairs and guessing as to what
would be the outcome of the matter
There was but little competitive vot-
ing OF real nature and every thing
passed off in good spirits. The big
leaders had fixed 1t up for the i'm
portant things and allowed little
swing around on some others to
make the thing yet little interest
ing Some OF the counties made
this possible by having made the
condition confusing by having sent
