The populist party county convention was
eld yesterday nt the superior court rooms.
The attendance was painfully light , the dcle-
atcs present numbcilng less than a score.
Int thcto was talk and discussion enough
o have done credit to a convention of 100.
ttllhu Meyers , chairman of the county
cntral committee , called the convention
o order and talked for an hour on the po-
Itlcal situation. Hovent over the financial
.ucstlon from start to a long deferred finish
.nd finally declared In favor of a union of
ho bimetallic forces of the county and
tiitc. He was In favor of allowing the free
liver republicans and the free silver ndvo-
ates of all parties a voice In the naming
if the county ticket.-
Mr , Meyers was chosen temporary chair
man and William Pattou secretary. A coni-
nlttce on credentials , composed of William
Osborne of Ncola , S. S. Shepard of this
city , D. 1) . Gllstrnp of Norwalk , J. M. John-

city , II. S. Alexander of Hnrdln , Henry
larko of Garner , James Hatflcld of Neola ,
. W. norland of Lewis and C. D. Watts of
Crescent.
With this preliminary work out of the way
he convention took a recess until the after-
loon. The convention reassembled at 2
o'clock. H. S. Alexander was chosen per-
nancnt chairman and then the delegates
went Inlo a lengthy discussion as to what
action should be taken at the state con
vention. An effort was made to get n
delegation plcdgcrt-to Join with the free sil
ver forces of all parties on a state anil
county ticket. This Aontlment was linnllj
overruled and It was decided to fuse wltli
other sliver forces In the selection of an
Icctoral ticket , but that the party organ
ization should he pieservcd In the selcctlor
of state and county tickets.
Delegates to the state , congressional ami

While thqro was no action taken on th
question ot candidates , the Pottaxvattatnli
county delegation will favor the nomluatioi
ot Theodore Ivory of Glcnwood as a Candl
date for district judge. No one has of
fercd himself as a candidate for congress
and the prospects are that if the democrat
nominate Judge Ivory for the district bencl
the populists will reciprocate by nomlnatliii
Lew Gcnung , the democratic favorite fo
congress. The platform was a short and slm
pie declaration of abiding faith in the SI
Louis platform and the nominees of tha
convention. It declared in favor of a re
vision ot the system of taxation , so tha
property owners shall be taxed for wha
they own and not for what they owe , and th
last clause of the document declares tha
the party will support no man who will no
stand squarely on the party platform wit
both feet and erect.
The convention adjourned at 4 o'clock.

CITY OWNS A IIK ! GIIAVI2L I'I'I
Only TJiliiK Needed IN to Ilnlld
Switch to lb < - Spot.
Councllmen Shubcrt , Pace and Barstov
accompanied by Roadmaster Flynn ot till
division of the Northwestern railway , spcr
the forenoon yesterday Investigating th
feasibility of putting In a sidetrack o
switch at the Wlckham gravel beds , nort
of the city , to enable the city to haul th
gravel needed for street repairs. The road
master was acting In the capacity of rcpr <
Eentnttvo of the railway company , and th
compliance with the city's request for
switch will depend largely upon his rcpor
It was found that but little expense won )
bo entailed by the construction of a swltc
at the Wlckham banks , as very little grai
Ing or cutting is necessary. Mr. Flyn
indicated by his conversation that he wa
very willing to make a favorable report.
While the count-Union and the roadmaste
were In the vicinity they took time to Ir
vcstlgato the gravel beds on the city proi
erty , and the result was almost n sensatlonc
surprise. The city owns property frontln
on the railway right-of-way for a dlstanc
of 1,230 feet. For a distance of seven
hundred feet there Is a strip of land nearl
level that Is ten feet or more above th
level of tha railway tracks , A stratum c
coarse sand and gravel crops out in mi
merous places at this paint. The counuilmc
borrowed Mr. Flynn's shovel and went t
digging. Under eighteen Inches of cart
they struck a bed of clean coarse gravel an
dug Into It several feet with the result tha
the quality Improved the deeper they went
At other points they found the gravi
stratum covered by three feet of eartl
From the Investigations made Mr , Flyn
and the cauncllmen were convinced that th
city owns the most extensive and casil
worked gravel bank In the vicinity , and tha
It extends the full distance ot the city'
frontage on the railway tracks , nearl
a third of a mllo. Very llttlo grading wl
bo necessary to lay a switch the entire db
tanco. and the elevation of the bed abov
the track will render It possible to caall
load the ears. Sulllcient material to cove
llroadway and thu other streets where it I
desired to make the experiment can bo ot
tulned without much stripping and llttl
cost in addition to transportation. Sped
meiu of the gravel that Barstow perspired t
obtain were brought to the city buildliu
It was found to be superior to any othe
samples on hand.
The experiment with thu material o
Bryant street Is progressing satisfactory
The strip In front of the city bulldln
where the cedar blacks have been remove
will bo filled and rolled with a fifteen to
steam roller. Nothing but clear sand grave
will bo used. If It packs down Bufllclcntl
hard to withstand the heavy hauling tha
passes over It the councllmen will take I
as a satisfactory solution of the problem , au
It not a top dressing of earth and cinder
will bo put on , If this falls other experl
nienta will bo made until the gravel questlo
U thoroughly Investigated and proven to b
a good thing or Impracticable.
