arranging to do worse. He repeatedly

thoy must stay by tho ticket and that
the ''little band of populist" should
not for any rea-on refuse to take the
medicine as mixed by the democrats.
A recess was then taken for the pur
pose of marching in a body to meet VV.
.f. Bryan, who was expected on tho 5:30
train. At that time the conference
committee had not ven unearthed
and from present indications the con
vention will Dot get down to business
until sometime In the nignt.
Mr. Holcomb dwelt at somo length
on the necessity of the fusionisis carry
ing X- braska this year on account of
tho t-lTect it wiil have on tho presiden

not particularly interested in the elec

After rehearsing all of the good
things tho fusionists have done in the
legislature end the b d laws enacted
by the republicans ho finally closed
without referring to tho house rent
deal.
Tho populisms not having appointed
their conference committee, upon mo
tion of F. J. Morgan the c -nventioo
took a fifteen minutes recess, during
which timo there was a hearty hand
shaking with Mr. Holcomb.
During the lime that the conference
committee was in consultation with
the popuiie-t committee F. J. Morgan
read resolutions paying tribute to the
late Guy Livingston, which were
unanimously adopted by the conven
tion, ana by a vote were ordered
printed in tho city papers, and a copv
furnished to deceased's family. The
resolution follow:

impulse of patriotism which was al

Waterman's hall was half lil.ed with
representative populists when the
hour arrived for convening. There
wore many familiar faces present.
which, notwithstanding- the changed
conditions, made it look like an old
time populist convention .
The convention was called to order
by ,1 .lines P Rouse, and on motion of
Dave McCalg was elected temporary
chairman, and B. F. Allen was elected
temporary becretary. After reading
of call by the secretary a committee
on credentials, consisting of E. J.
Cooley, J. F. Parsoil ar A S. T. Eddy,
was appointed.
Before the committeo reported H.
D. Travis appeared a-a commiiteeof
one and ext. nded an invitation to the
convention to go to the democratic
convention to hear ex Oovt-rnor H 1
comn, who w .8 about to expound ihe
'pure stuff" io the other hall. The
convention accepted the invitation
and abandoned the hall without own
asking the credentials committee to
go along.
WThen Si b-oke away the faithful re
turned to their hall and listened to
thetreport of the committee on cre
dentials, which found a large number
of precincts not represented, as follows:
Plattsmouth precinct, Plattsmouth,
Second ward; Weeninc "Water citv.
First, Second and Third wards; Eight
Mile Grove precinct, Mt. Pleasant pre
cinct, tenter precinct, lip ton pre
cinct.
It was ordered that - any populist
present from these wards and pre
cincts represent them.
On motion of Jim Clark, a commit
toe of three, to confer with a like
committee of democrats, was ap
pointed, which consisted of W. It.
Davis, Jim Clark and L. James. The
democratic committee, with John A.
Gutecho at its head, was waiting and
the six men retired to apportion the
spoils. As this movement was purely
in the- interests of "reform," there tbo nianner in which to proceed with

cided to appoint a new conference
committee and tho following wero se-
leeted: Herman Bestor, George Towl
anu L C. Oiunam.
II. D. Travi- moved that the com
mittee bo instructed to inform the
populist committee that the democrats
wanted the offices of treasurer, bheriff
and count3T superintendent. This
proposition met with many loud
shrieks of "No!'' and threw the con
vention into an uproar. A vote on
Mr. Travis' motion to instruct tho
felegation a above, resulted in carry

Mr. Trumble mado a motion to tako
a recess of ono hour, during which time
the democrats of tho Second commis
sioners' district should placo in nomi
nation a candidate for commissioner.
The motion prevailed.
Tho Second district democrats ef
fected an organ zuion and then ad
journed until a tcr the county ticket
was disposed of.
When the convention convened af
ter fupper Fred Kroehler, who would
rather hear B yan talk than to do al
most anything eise, made a motion to
adjourn until after that gentleman had
delivered his speech. And it carried.
After the speech was finished and
the convention again convened, the
conference committee reported tnat
thej had failed to make a satisfactory
division f the f-poi'8 wi h the popu
lists, but asked a few moments' time
in which to hear from the populists
after they had reconvened.
A committee of one from the popu
list convention then appeared and
stated that the populis s were willing
to give tho democrats everything ex
cept county clerk which proposit on
was accepted with cheers.
Upon motion of J. M. Leyda the
convention then proceeded to nomi
nate a county ticket.
With a neat little speech II. Ft. Ger
ing placed in nomination Oscar H
Allen for county judge and suggested
that the nomination and election be
made by acclamation. The former
was doi.e, but the latter well, wait
and see.
Jphn A. dutscne then placed in
nomination James II. Hcrold for
countv treasurer. F. J. Morgan mide
a lengthy speech and placed John C
Cummins In nomination, promptly
followed by H. D. Travis, who nomi
nated W. K. Fox. Following out the
old saying that the more the merrier
Jacob Triisch of Eight Mile Grove was
nominated. The chairman then asked

that of county clerk and J. D. Tutt

G'olonrI Itryan Talkn
From Thursday's Dully.
W. J. Bryan addressed a good sized
crowd on High sohool hill last even

dust which filled tho air it was bard
work to hear what tho colonel said.
