The Convention.
At 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon there were
nbout fifteen democrats In the exposition
nnd it was not until 3:15 : o'clock that nil the
delegates had been escorted to their seats.
I ) . The hall was divided Into three sections ,
[ / each consisting of about a dozen rows of
fchalrs and extending from the north to the
fiouth wall. The section nearest the stngo
Was reserved fur the delegates of the First
district , the other districts following In sue-
pension to the door , The Douirlas delegation
Bccurcd scats Immediately under the optics
Of the chairman.
The gathering was called to order by James
E. North , of Columbus , chairman of the
state central committee , who read the call
If for the convention ,
1 Admission to the floor of the hall by
E tickets , which were exnctcd at the door by
Joe Techon , who reserved the hall for dele
gates , whllo the ftnllory wan set apart and
liberally patronized by spectators , among
them being a number of ladles.
The chairman in calling the convention lo
' ' < nn'tcr said that his observations were that
the democracy of Nebraska were ono solid
phalanx nnd were prepared f or un active cam
paign. Ho explained that only ten delegates
could bo sent to the national convention at
St. Louis , and ns all of the convention could
not bo elected he hoped that they would not co
homo disappointed but would take their de
tent pleasantly. Tlio speaker praised Cleveland -
land , nnd the sentiment was warmly np-
plnudcd.
Mr. It. A. Realty , of Adams county , was
elected temporary chairman nnd was cs-
coi ted to his scat by Delegates Ogdcn and
Adams. Upon taking the chair Mr. JJeutty
returned' I thanks ' for the honor , nnd said ho
felt proud to preside over the deliberations
of the democracy of Nebraska. Ho trusted
that the deliberations of the body would bo
harmonious and that the delegates selected
licro would go to St. Louis upd proclaim
Nebraska ns solid for Grover Clove-
laud , "n man whom wo love for
the enemies ho has made. " Nebraska agrees
jvlth the people of the country nt largo that
ho will continue In the presidential chulr ,
and carry on the good work he has set under
way. There will bo uo dark horses nt St.
Louis , no vojccs from across the sea , no
voices from the grave. All the public lands
have notyot been restored , continued the
speaker , for the rascals luivo not nil been
turned out. Democracy has lots of work to
perform yet before It takes a rest. They
1 not rest until women and children have
J to stop begging for bread , and blankets are
t flcarer than tobacco nnd whisky.
; Mr. Morearty nominated Charles Offutt ,
\ tor secretary , and ho declined. Mr.
i Hildcbraudt was next named , and whllo the
[ motion was pending Mr. Morrlssoy amended
[ it that the chairman appoint n secretary from
{ each of the three districts , and ho appointed
J. G. P. Hlldebrandt , ilrst district , Charles
[ AVnlllqust , second , and Low May , third.
! Messrs. PattersonMiller and McAllister were
I selected as vice presidents and took chairs on
the stage under a cyclone of applause.
A delegate wanted a committee of flvo ap
pointed on credentials , but to this the secre
tary of the state central committee objected ,
anting that there were no contested scats.
The motion was"withdrawn , and the secre
tary proceeded to read the names of the dele
gates. At the conclusion of the meetlnc sev
eral corrections were made to tlio list , und on
motion of Mr. ' the
O'Day committee on cre
dentials was dispensed with and the list as
read considered the delegates to the conven
tion.
, * Mr. Alice moved that the temporary or
ganization bo made permanent , and this was
done.Mr.
Mr. Morrlssoy moved that a committo of
Seven bo appointed on platform , and received
. r. second to it from Mr. O'Day. Mr. Bryan ,
; of Lancaster , moved ns an amendment that
. the committee consist of twelve , to bo se
lf lectcd from the Judicial districts by the choir.
I.1 Mr. Miller , of uutlcr , amended that the com
mittee consist of ono delegate from
each Judicial district. Mr. Vando-
znurk. of Saumlors county , read a
substitute amendment , which wns laid on
he table temporarily. Mr. Morrissey In-
nlstcd that the laying on the table of the
Vandcmark substitute had laid the whole
jmattcr there , and ho resumed hU motion by
making the number of the committee nine.
Mr. Bryan retaliated with his previous
amendment , nnd n vote was called for on the
amendment , which the chairman declared
lost. "Division. " "Call by counties , " came
the cry on the ptinouncc.ment. aild tn IJH * * &
cnud'amVaaiuicscod mid the vote was recorded -
corded by the call of couutlcs , which re
sulted In the defeat of the amendment. The
Question occurring on the adoption of the
original motion , it was carried unanimously ,
mid tin ) chairman appointed as the committee
MorrUoy. of Douglus , chairman ; Ames , Lan
caster ; Allan , Dawcs : Platt , Hall ; Hinmaii ,
Lincoln ; Allen , Saline ; Howard , Dundy ;
McKoegan , Webster.
Mr. Montgomery , of Douglas , arose and
moved that the convention proceed to elect
four delegates n'/ largo to the national con
vention by voice , the chairman to cast the
vote of their delegations , and four alternate
delegate * at largo , then adjourn temporarily
for the selection by the district delegates of
two delegates from tlio First , Second and
{ Third districts , nud two alternates from
each of the districts.
Mr. Hlnman , of North Plattc , souilmttod
the resolution , and said that the eastern part
of the state was asking for too much , ns It
always had done. Coming , as ho did , from
tlio west , ho demanded that they roocivo the
consideration they are entitled to. They had
n great many votes In his section , and this
fall when the eat > t end of the state wanted
them they might be disappointed. Ho closed
by amending the Montgomery resolution that
ono dclegnto nt largo bo chosen by tbo con
vention , and that the congressional districts
Eoloct tholr own delegates and tlio extra dele
gate at large.
Mr. Offut defended the original motion ,
nnd deplored the aspccsions thrown nt the
eastern end of the state by Mr. Hinman.
"Hu says , " remarked Mr. Ofuit , "that the
vest casts tlio votes , but I fall to 'no where ,
( hey have u democratic representative In
congress , as the cast can boast of. " Mr.
Offut begged of Mr. Hlnmau for the sake of
flcconi'y and harmony that ho withdraw his
nmciulmout.
Mr Glddlngs spnko In favor of the fairness
of the original motion , nnd Mr. Miller , of
Jlutlor , opposed it , maintaining among much
disorder the Hlnman resolution was a fair
und equltnbls ono.
Mr. Morrissey insisted that there were no
grounds for the amendment und that It was
not In accord with democratic usages. It
luul been charged that there was , a slate
made , but if tlu'ro was ho was not aware of
It. , Ho was in favor of giving each congres
sional district a dolcgato at largo , and Uoug-
lus county would east her thlrty-llvo votes
solid to that mid.
Things were quite hot when Mr. O'Day , of
Nciigh , arose nnd gnld , as a representative
from the third district , ho was not in favor
of the amendment , which ho intimated had
been Inspired from selfish motives , Agree-
nblo to the wishes of the crowd , who howled
long aud loud for him to "shut up" and ' 'sit
down. " ho sat.
Mr , Hlnman , in tlio face of disorder and
nttcmpts at bulldnzliiir , defended himself
from the onslaught of the delegates and said ,
turning to Mr. O'Day , that ho had never
bcun scon at a republican caucus. Mr. O'Day
prow rod in the facn , and the crowd yelled
iiml stamped their foot. In the fierceness of
the din Mr. Hlnman was heard to say some
thing about wanting to bet 9100 to $3 , and he
took his seat.
Upon the vote being taken the Hlnman
amendment was defeated , and the original
motion was carried ,
Nominations being in order , Mr. Charles
Ok'dun , of Douglas county , placed In nomina
tion Hon. James K. Hoyd , whom ho referred
to as a man of courngo and strength of pur-
pete , a loyal democrat who was in close con
nect ton with the present national administra
tion and has the confidence of Piviidoat
( jluvcl&nd. [ Cheers. ]

This last nomination was received with
great enthusiasm , and it was some time be
fore qul t wai restored , There was another
outhuistof applause nnd cheers when Mayor
Sawyer , of Lincoln , arose to second the
nomination of Morton.
Glddlngs , of Cedar , L. K. Jones. Glddlngs
also seconded the nomination of Fahey.
Nominations then closed and Ogden's
motion , that the four candidates receiving
the highest number of votes bo declared
elected , was carried. After voting down a
motion of Green , of Kearney , that the first
ballot bo an informal one , ttio convention
proceeded to cast its vote as follows :

J. Sterling Morton 203
When Douglas county wn called and
Frank Morrissey announced thlrty-Avo votes
for Hoyd , and the same number for North ,
Castor nnd Martin , Kd Morearty Jumped up
nnd said that as n delegate from Douglas ho
wished to cast his vote for Hon. J. Sterling
Morton. Had a cyclone struck the conven
tion It could not have caused , n greater dis
turbance. Morearty was cheered to the
echo , and denounced as a traltorand no dem
ocrat by Morrissey. who said Morearty was
only n proxy nnd 1ml gene back on the unit
rule , which wasordcred by thoDouglas county
convention. The chair decided that Moro-
arty's ' vote could not bo received , according
to the usages of the democratic party assem
bled In national convention nt Chicago In
1881 , when Now York state attempted to
divide Its vote , nnd there were cries of deri
sion over the decision.
"Tho Douglas county convention instructed
us to vote the unit rule , " cried Charley
Ogdon.
"How do wo know thatl" howled a Lan
caster delegate in thunderous tones.
"I say so , " hissed Frank Morrissey , add
ing : "And I defy any mnn to Impeach my
Integrity or honesty in the state or county.
"Let's see the minutes of that convention ;
where arc they ? " repeated the delegate from
Lancaster ,
"You cau't ' see them , " snarled Charley
Ogdon. "Why don't you show a democratic
majority , a democratic congressman , us
Douglas county cnnl"
Order was restored nnd balloting pro
ceeded.
Pending the counting of the vote n number
of delegates arose and transferred their
votes , Douglas county leading the procession
" > y withdrawing its thirty-live votes pre
viously cast for Frank Martin nud adding
them to the column of Hon. Patrick Fahoy.
The president refused to entertain tlio
changes until after the vote was counted ,
nnd after this was done the Douglas county
delegation , by permission , withdrew for con
sultation , promising "to do the fair thing
, vhon they returned. " During their absence
tovcrnl motions were made , all of which the
president refused to entertain. Tbo dolcga-
on asked for flvo minutes time , and when
iat tlmo had expired the crowd swarmed
about the stBRO and insisted that the vote be
announced. Upon the return of the Douglas
'ollows , Mornssoy said that they would
tand Frank Martin. The
> by secretary en
deavored to bo heard , to read the result of
the vote , but was drowned out by the din
that prevailed.
Frank Martin succeeded In being heard
and said for the sake of harmony ho wished
, chance the vote of Richardson county
from Fahoy to Morton. The decision
was hailed with cheers and a tiger for Mar *
tip. Frank Morrissey next went on the
stage and cast the thirty-five votes of Doug
las cjunty for "Boyd , Morton nnd Har
mony. " Other delegations followed in a
'Ike strain.
The number of votes necessary for choica
was 223 , and resulted In the election of
Messrs. Hoyd , North , Castor and Morton.
After rati Tying the election of these gentle
men , tho" convention took an adjournment
until 8 o'clock nnd the districts went into
session. '
The delegates were slow In returning from
their suppers and discussion of the events of
the afternoon. The hall was poorly lighted ,
and It was with difllculty that the faces of
the spectators in the gallery could bo aeon.
It was 8:80 : o'clock before the convention was
rapped to order , and the delegates were slow
in rinding their scats , and Mr. O'Day , of
Nollgh , opened the proceedings by asking if
It was not understood when the convention
adjourned that when It reconvened the alter
nates were to bo elected. Ho was told that
that was the understanding , and ho moved
that Inasmuch as the district conventions had
not yet been bled to select their delegates
that it would facilitate matters if they should
do so immediately and select alternates after
ward. His motion was carried under pro
tests , and the delegates went into session.
Charles Offut presided over the First dis
trict , A. K. Haetty over the Second , nud
Thomas O'Day the Third. The third
district , W r ° - tardv in returning
from their deliberations , nnd during
the tedious wait the convention
was kept awake by speeches from \vT J ,
Bryau , of Lincoln , Attorney Offut and oth
ers.
ers.It was 10:15 when the third district delegation
tion came into the hull , and it was ton min
utes later when the convention settled down
to business again. The llrst business in order
was the report of the dlstiictsiui follows :
First District Delegates , G. W. Cook of
Gage , James Crcighton of Douglas ; alter
nates , Robert Duvisof Sauudors , F. E. John
son of Ncmaha.
Second District Delegates , John M. Kea-
gan of Adams , Thomas Col far , of Rod Wil
low ; alternates , R. A. Dumply of Soivard ,

of Holt :
The following alternates at largo wore
elected : Mat Miller of Hutlor , Dr. W. H. H.
Dunn of Lancaster , George West of Polk , J.
\V. Ferguson of Kearney.
At the conclusion of the election of alter
nates Mr. Morrissey mounted the stngo and
read the following , which was unanimously
adopled :
Resolved , That thacholco of this conven
tion for n democratic nominee for president
is G rover Cleveland , of Now York , nnd wo
therefore instruct our delegates to the na
tional convention to bo held in St. Louis on
the 5th day of Juno to vote and work as o
unit to secure his noini alion.
The following , Introduced by Charles
Ogdcu , of Douglas , was adopted amid cheers
and applause :
Resolved , That this convention , on behalf
of the democratic party of Nebraska , views
with satisfaction the course of Hon. John A.
McSlmuo in congress and heartily indorses
him as an nblo , cuorgotlo and patriotic repre
sentative of the Interests of the people of the
whole state ,
Mr. Morrlssoy then read the platform ,
which was adopted , as follows ;
TUB ri.vrromi.
The democracy of Nebraska in a repre
sentative convention assembled proudly ro-
afllrms its allegiance to those great and en
during principles of political faith which the
democratic party of the nation has ever
espoused , and wnlch have been since the
daVH , of Jefferson thu chief and csaenthi
principles of u democratic form of govern
ment.
The administration of President Cleveland
has and is entitulou to the unqualified and
loyul support of every ti uo democrat , and the
domoeraoy of Nebraska is gruleful for this
opportunity to express its confidence and ad'
miration of President Cleveland by a ro
nuvral of the Biipjwirt it yielded him in the
national convention hold in 16S4. His public ,
nets have over been inspired by honesty
courage , and loyalty to the people. His ad
ministration has been sale , economic nnd uu
marred by the evils of plunder and
corruption which marked with stigma
and reproach those by his republican predo
ccasors. His selection of men forpublio
plnco have been wise nnd judicious , gulden
by the principle upon which his own great
position bos been directed "public ofllco i ii
publlo trust. " HU policy in all respects has
wisely conserved the beat Interests of ull the
people of the nation.
The necessity for a reduction of public rev
enucs has become so pressing as to cmpua
size the primary need of a readjustment of
tuo tarill laws , to the end that the reduction
and abolition of unnecessary taxes may b <
bccured , nnd the democrats of Nebraski
heartily endorse the views of Prcslden' '
Cleveland on this issue , which were so ad
mirably expressed In his message to the
Fiftieth congress , nnd they urge upon the
, national democracy about ( o assemble in St
Lou.1 * a similar oppression from its counsels
Only tliose uhose ignorance rsnd.crs their
K > s esslon of the ballot n menace to Iho sta-
illlty of our Institutions can bo deceived by
the protoctlonl ts Juyglors , who claim In the
same breath that a protective tariff is neces
sary to manufacturers on account of ft higher
irovnlcnt rate of wages In this country than
n European countries nnd also that such n
tariff Is necessary to laborers In order to
maintain their wages at a higher rate than
s prevalent in sucn countries nnd who pretend
tend that such tariff is bononciont to com
missioners by reducing the price of manu
factured articles , whllo at the same lima In
sisting that It is necessary to manufacturers
n order to prevent the importation of cheaper
manufactured articles of the same kind from
abroad.
It is further urged upon the democracy of
, ho country that a general dcnuncl.v
.Ion of the glgantlo monopolies
termed "trusts" should bo made
and such legislation enacted to prevent their
exigence believing that the abolition of
custom duties upon all articles thus monopo
lized would nld iu accomplishing the desired
end.
end.Tho
The forfeiture of nil unearned land grants
and the restoration of ouch public lands to
.ho public domain is demanded.
Continued fidelity to the interests of the
workinpmon , farmers nnd producers gener
ally U pledged by the Nebraska democracy ,
and legislation for the better scouring to the
tellers of their rights and privileges Is rec
ommended" . <
Sympathy for the wronged nnd oppressed
of every land Is tivowed ; nnd nt this crisis of
the affairs of the people of Ireland hearty
encouragement is expressed to them In their
struggle for liberty nnd self-government.
Liberal pensions to disabled nnd needy vet
erans of the union army are recommended lo
congress ; but jobbery nnd favoritcism such
ns were exposed by President Cleveland's
veto measures are emphatically condemned.
For the best Interests of nil the people of
the United States and their moro harmonious
ccmcuttn ? into a fratcrnlnl nation , sectional
ssucs and the keeping alive of the hatreds of
the late civil war are reprehended , and de
nounced.
Mr. J. G. V. Hlldobrandt read the follow
ing which was adopted :
ttcsolvcd , That , wo , the democrats of Ne
braska in convention assembled , congratu-
.ato President Cleveland in the wise selec
tion he has made In the cholco of a successor
x > the late chief Justice of the United States
n so able n jurist as the Hon. Mcllvillo Ful
ler , of Illinois.
At 11:05 : o'clock the convention adjoiuaod
sine die.
_
Tlie "BCO'B" Observer.
In appearance , the , convention lacked the
dignity , grace and Imposing qualities which
; enerally characterize the gathering of re
publican bodies. It was , however , moro
Lho roughly representative of all the classes
of the commonwealth , because iu it were
round a great variety of character , extend
ing from the occupant of the sod house In
the regions contiguous to the unorganized
territory to the capitalist whoso homo is fur
nished with the latest improvements of the
times. Among the occupants of the gallery ,
at least until the work waxed warm , were
several well known ladles , among whom
were noticed Miss Smith , daughter of B. F.
Smith , of Boston , Miss Nettie Collins , Miss
Balcombe , Mrs. Lyman Richardson and
Mrs. Col. Hall. The rear of the hall was
occupied by a number of republicans ,
among whom were the chairman
of the council , a member of
the police commission and the auburn
hoadea attorney of the B. & M. who seemed
entirely at homo in the camp of his political
enemies. Another prominent personage ,
who , however , was ono of the accredited
delegates , was Dr. . Hapvoy Link , of Millard ,
in this county , whoso grey hairs were about
as wblta as the snow under which his party
has slumbered these many years.
The gavel was hastily improvised. It con
sisted of the rung and leg of n chair which
had bean cut from a dismantled seat in the
opera house stage which had long been
placed on the retired list.
Dr. Miller was noticeable for his absence ,
and Mr. Boyd quietly retained a roar scat
and did .not maKe much effort in looking
after his interests until toward the close ,
when It looked as If things were not entirely
to his satisfaction. Mr. Green , of
Kearney , for perhaps the first time in
his career , was not called upon to talk
about the old party. Mr. Boyle of the
same place , smiled his prettiest.
Mr. Glddlngs , of Cedar , shot himself
frequently into the attention of the gather
ing and received a number of hisses when ,
because ho could not hear nil that , everybody
said , suggested that uo more state demo
cratic conventions bo hold in Omaha. An
other amusing delegate was the eccentric
Hpokesman from Blnino county , who knocked
the chairman's patience into a wayside ball
by pestering that functionary for constant
repetitions of his announcements. The dele
gate had evidently been to an oil room. Matt
Miller's ' "Mr. Chairman in a high voice , such
as formerly woke the half dead echoes in the
legislature , was received with hearty laugh
ter and uppbiuso , as was also Low May ,
whose basnfulnoss caused him to bo led to
the rostrum when ho was appointed one of
the secretaries , Judge Crawford , of West
Point , won ono of the six men in the house
who were glasses , juid fronv hi distant 9cM
lonko'l H-o S ipectro from another sphere.
In this concentrated wisdom of the party
there were 450 out of 4. > 3 votes
represented , the somewhat abridged pos
sibility of securing passes on the
railroads bolng charged with the absence of
many of the accredited patriots.
Beach I. Hlnman , of North Plntto , did not
"spring" McShnne , as it was thought ho
would , but ho unbosomed himself when the
plan was suggested that four delegates bo
elected at largj and two from each congres
sional district. Ho opposed the plan and his
insinuation that its moaning was that no
delegate would bo elected who lived beyond
n point 200 miles from the Missouri set sus
picious people conjecturing ns to whether
what ho said was true or otherwise. Somu
of these were convinced that ho spoke the
truth when ho claimed that In the lost
convention no delegate living west of a line
150 miles from the Missouri had boon chosen ,
and these skeptics wore still more converted
to his views when the veteran delegate an
nounced that Douglas county had made u
"slate" which it wished to force upon the
convention. The gentleman's amendment
was defeated , though Its support was far
from frigid. Ono of bis opponents , who
offered n good argument for his support
of the four-two plan , was O'Day , of
Neligh , to whom the old gentleman
gave a thrust when lie said In support of his
own democracy , that ho bau never been
found In u republican caucus , O'Day winced
but bore the stab without a reply.
Charles Ogden's i > cech nominating Boyd
was short , apparently studied , excellently
delivered and iu every respect appropriate.
Mr , Byd'a name was greeted with loud an-
plauset during which that gentleman quietly
occupied a seat off the center ulslo , with a
face ns inexpressive as If the tribute had
been paid to the king of Dahomey , Cloggott's '
speech , shooting Morton before the conven
tion , was of inferior merit , but the applause
that greeted it was like the roar of the Janu
ary blizzard. The seconding speech of Saw
yer , of Lincoln , was pitched in a high treble
and when the orator had Mulshed his features
were as livid as those of u mummy , The
applause which greeted it , however , was not
unlike that of the brigade which swept the
Hold at Fontouay. It showed in a most un
mistakable manner that the originator of
arbor tree was still a prophet In his own
country. It was at this point that the Morton
fight bcean , nnd the vote which E. F. Moroarty
of the Douglas delegation gave to that gen
tleman after it hud been announced that
Douglas was solid for Boyd , paralyzed , so to
speak , the Boyd men into paroxysms of the
wildest delight. Morearty was denounced as
a sneak nnd his vote failed to count , but
Morton stock took a jump heavenward , aud
the homo delegation begun to fool uneasy.
Morearty had received JohnF. Boyd's proxy ,
and the latter was warmly turned over in
private for bis transfer. By the way of ex
planation , however , the latter afterwards
stated to the BBB obsom-n that ho had been
appointed by his ward club as a dolcgato
without his knowledge or consent ; that ho
had declined to act because of business , and
said he would give his proxy to a Boyd man.
that Morearty Imd culled upon him , nskeo
him for the proxy , stated that ho was iu
favor of Boyd , and accordingly ho was al
lowed to go to the convention. Others
claimed that the proxy had been granted be
c-ius > e J. F. Boyd wanted to oppose an
other man whoso iiamo would como
up in the district convention , but ho hud no
idea Morearty would use his vets against the
ex-mayor.
The scene which ensued contrasts favor
ably with any which 1ms been enacted in a
democratic convention , even In Kentucky ,
and some omniscient power must tiuVo ro-
overwrought feelings froa being
eiprfissrd by blows.
\Vuou Douglas changed its vo'S-from ' Mar
tin , of Falls Clly , to Vahy , of O'NolI. thus
snubbing Morton , of Nebraska City , the lnt <
tor's friends know that Douglas meant to de
feat their man. This knowledge extended
throughout the convention with the velocity
of light. Jt was nttondedby changes to Mor
ton , which were greeted with yolli. The
men of Douglas bccnmo anxious. Proposi
tions were made to them to change to
Morton , but were steadily declined. No
change would bo made , nnd still Morton con
tinued to grow in strength. Some of the del
egates weakened and the conference which
was hold outside the hall , however , resulted
only in the afllrmation of the original voto.
Still Morton grow In strength. By this tlmo
the sr-crctary had bc a'rt to announce the
vote , which showed tluit Boyd hay received
803 ballots. Amidst all the din Martin forced
himself Into prnmlnpnco. got the oar of the
convention , changed the vote of his dele
gation to J. Sterling Morton nnd turned the
convention Into the danca ball of nn Insnno
asylum , Other changes followed nnd finally
Frank Morrlssoy wheeled Douglas Into line
for "Boyd , Morton and Harmony. " It was
the supreme moment. The change could not
have been made nn Instant later , ami there is
suftlclcnt ground upon which to base the as
sertion that , If Morrissey had not gene to the
Nebraska City sage , the glory would have
departed from the Omaha candidate. A
love feast followed such us will novcr doubtless -
loss bo witnessed until in some future era
when the king of the forest will rest his
tawny limbs beside the llccco of the sportive
lambkin.
Mr. Fahy , of O'Neill , says that ho was
counted out. Ho had received , ho claims ,
230 votes before Douglas gave him thirty-llvo
moro , and then , in the shuffle of changing , his
majority was set aside. Ho 'does not Know
how Castor was elected , and claims that In
the last presidential convention the latter
was counted In by forty votes which could
not bo accounted for.
< lie Hopefuls.
The last loiterer of the democratic delo-
jatcs hnd scarcely retired from the marble
[ mils of the Paxton Tuesday night
when the light entered the scene
of Tuosday's activity. Simultan
eously with the first rays , some of the dovo-
Lees who had spent the night out looking at
the electric light works made their appear
ance , looking a little tired after their scien
tific Investigation. Breakfast was soon an
nounced , disposed of , and then by ones , twos
and threes the gathering In the rotunda
swelled , until nt 10 o'clock there was n throng
from all parts of the state , moving , whisper
ing , button-holing in an atmosphere of smoke
of about seventeen diameters.
MIS51HO.
Among the now arrivals , there were but a
few who had attained to state distinction.
In fact , in this respect , the gathering this
year is noticeable for the absence of men
who hnvo hitherto held the utttcntlon of their
party either to merit rebuke or bo awarded
commendation , The great sago of Arbor

every democratic convention hold in Ne
braska since the first day on which
the Platte began to How , was not there
either. J. A. Kchoe , of Platte Center , who
is next to mo to the marshal persimmon , was

Chicago. Dr. Maloney , of Humboldt , the

But among those Who were there were
noticed the many-year occupant of the Grand
Island land ofllce\V. H , Platte ; A. II. Baker ,
who has at the eating house in the same
place , moro hungry mortals than there arc
drops of whisky m I16r's distillery ; Dick
Thompson , of Hustings , round , fat and
beaming with an illuminated countenance
like the modest blush of an early sun ; W.
Munger , of Fremont , who did his best to de

Billy Nevill , of Plattsmouth , who has built
moro bridges in Nebraska than ho made

that ho has filled for bis party ; Orlando
Tofft , who still remembers the votes ho once
received for United States senator , nnd a
host of others , not least of whom Dr. Miller ,
with the easy air of n gentleman satisfied
with himself aud the rest of the world , and
James 13. Boyd , who was dressed with the
same fastidiousness a young man displays on
his wedding.
.
In this shifting , SCuemmg , babbling crowd
all kinds of rumors floated , ono of which wr.s
that Beach J. Hlnmnn , of North Platt , had
determined to introduce John A. McShuno's
name in the convention , to divide the support
to Boyd. This announcement occasioned a
great deal of consternation among McStiano's
friends , who had all along held that McShuno
was not to bo considered nnd who felt if his
name were now presented It would injure the
party and do McShnno no good. It soon
reached John A. Crelghton's cars and
ho sought Hlnman and endeavored
with what success could not bo ascertained
tn dissuade him from his intent.
WISDOM AND CJOMIP.
Room 48 was visited by Boyd men with
tread-mill regularity , and each delegate re
turned with a knowledge of Boyd's strength
and a fragrant clgir.
"BUCKING IIINMAN. "
"Why don't you go for those officeholders
ers , " inquired uu Omaha gentleman who
hopss for preferment , "who arc attending
this convention ) There is Critcs ; he's u
land oftlcor. "
The reporter saw Mr. Crites and the lot
tor's interview will be found below.
"There's another thing you can do , Sco
Beach Hlnman. Ho can tell you some things
about ofllcial interference. Ho told mo last
night that a deputy collector of the Internal
rovoiluo ofllco was sent out into his district
to work ugauist his bolng elected as a dele
gate to this convention , "
"What was that done forl"
"Because Hinman was not the right kind
of a man , I suppose. "
"What does that meanl"
I suppose because ho was not a Boyd man.
Beach told mo last night that he would prob
ably make complaint about the matter. "
"To the convention ! "
No , sir , to the president himself. Such in
terference in elections 'is ' not allowed under
the civil service rules1 !
A , If. Crltcx , Itccclufr of the Lmul-Offlce ,
Chadron "No , I uui not a dolcgato to the con
vcntion. I don't know1 just exactly what the
BEU'H opinion is with respect to ottlcers attend
ing conventions , so I'dibetter lie a little low.
The removal of the land-oftlco from Nebraska
docs not effect us at all , That is something
that ought to have been 'done ' some time ago ,
or was , as contemplated , to either Crelghton
orO'Noil. Our Innd-olllco business is the
largest iu the state. Wo are the first ofll-
cers , I remitted at the end of hist month
the receipts of the oftliio since last July nnd
they amounted to $340,000. Prior to 16S3 a
considerable proportion pf that would have
gene to the register and the receiver , in all
about $30,000. But in that year u law was
passed limiting the remuneration of both the
register and recoibert to $3,000 per year.
Where IsCharde , of the Niobrara land-onlcol
Well , ho turned sick when the
onico was removed to O'Neill and ,
I guess , didn't care to como down.
Ho bought property in Niobrara a short time
before the change , and that has been depre
ciated , I think , about 50 per cent. It hurt
Chard , although , as you know his land was
in Oakland.
O , V. QiillaQjicr , Postmaster , Omulia
Yes , I'm a delegate. You misunderstand the
circular. It says that an onico-holder shall
take no moro interest In political affairs than
ho did before his appointment. I'm not
taking any more Interest in this business
than I did before I was appointed , because ]
attended conventions then. And the circular
also says that the ofllcial shall not use the
l > ewer of his ofllco to advance the interests
of the party or any faction , and I urn not
using my authority Ao help the party or any
faction in it.
Juan Uojjlc , Kearney II would not bo the
right thing now that delegates have co-no
bcio instructed , to spring Mr. McSiianu'a
numo . us a delegate to St. Louln , because -
cause ho would not nocopt the position.
Ho tolij ma himself that ho did not want It.
nnd would not accept It. The democrats or
Nebraska would have boon glad to send Mr.
McShnno to St. Louis and ho could have re
ceived the appointment beyond a doub. But
it Is not necessary for him to go. Mr.Clevo-
Ifind Is perfectly satisfied that Mr. McShnno
eoulej bo elected a delegate If ho wan ted It ,
t think Mr. Shane has acted wisely , because
It leaves the place open to some other demo
Drat. If ho had wanted to go to St. Louis ,
lie could hnvo gene nnd it would not bo a
luostlon between him anil Boyd , because
both would have gene together.
S. If , Wallmch , Grand Island : Our
delegation has been Instructed for Boyd. but
wo may have to give Morton n complimen
tary vote If he Is n Cleveland delegate , but
if ho Isn'tvo can't Jvoto for him. That
question will have to bo settled by Morton's
friends. No. sir I am not acandldato for
con press Iu the Third district. I haven't got
the tlmo nor the money , nor the Inclination
to make a canvass. Besides , I vnlno my ner
vous system too much to go through the
worry and excitement of a campaign , But a
number of republicans iu my district
have said 'If Dorsey is rcnomlimtcd you
como up nmt we'll support you. ' The fact of
the matter Is. they say. Dor.sey Is n hog ; ho
wants everything nnd is willing to glvo noth
ing. Ho has had the place now for two terms
nnd ho wants It n third tlmo. He's been
promising to glvo to Kearney. Grand Island.
Norfolk nnd Fremont publlo government
buildings and have sessions of the United
States court held In each of them , mid ho has
succeeded In doing neither. Another thing
that the republicans are down on him for Is
that ho succeeded in having the congres
sional district central committee call the con
vention for Norfolk , an out-of-tho-way place ,
on the 14th of May , Just the day before the
state convention is to bo hold In Omaha , and
that will not give many of the delegates tlmo
to como here. You see ho wants the
thing done up with snap judgment ,
I would not bo n candidate for congress
If I were assured of election. Dorscy's ma
jority wan about 7,000 , and I went out of my
owu county with a majority of 8,000. So
you sco that with some work I might run

NOTES FROM THE QAM.HnV.
The followlngjrcsolutlon was presented by
an unknown delegate : Resolved , That wo
recognize , appreciate and commend the wis
dom of President Cleveland in retaining Mr.
Biorbowor in the United States marshal's
ofllco , the same being n public trust.
Colonel Frank P. Ireland made a speech In
which he touchlngly referred to the fact that
there were no Hies on this administration.
' Whllo wo are democrats , " said Jolly
Malt Miller , gravely aud reverently , "let us
individually thank our stars that wo are not
Voorhcos. "
Mr. James E. North was heard to remark
that Tobo Castor was the mildest manuoroa
man that ever wanted olllco.
Senator Casper quoted aptly whenho ex
citedly remarked , "the moro I see of politi
cians the more I ndmlro dogs. "
The following ghastly poem , the writing of
which should constitute a penitentiary of
fence , was found on the chairman's table ,
Just before the convention convened :
You may shout and howl for Mr. Drown ,
And for Moiton loudly cheer ,
And you may llguro up nnd down ,
Bat they're "done for" this year.
The packing house nicely packed.
The slaughter house was scattered-
Boy d and Bliller strongly backed
With Ilrown and Morton battered.
Frank Johnson , n veteran democrat from
Brownvillo , says Cleveland is the only man
to lead the misguided to victory.
It was Resolved , That we have enough
packing houses in Nebraska. The demand
is for more slaughter houses.
J. P. IHIldebrand , once of Pawnee City ,
now of St. Paul , yelled "rats" several
times.
Mayor Rolfe , Mr. Cotton , W. E. Hill nnd
Bob Payne from Otoo county looked tear
fully upon the scene OB Colonel Ireland
slaughtered the Missouri language with the
Massachusetts broguo.
W. C. Ellis , of Blaine county , nn editor of
the sand hills , says he is not a packinghouse
democrat but believes in the slaughter
house principles.
James Ewing , from Wood River , who
"looked In" with admiration , declared to the
gallery man that ho was In Omaha only on
misiness , and that his sympathy was still
with his Gazette at Wood River.
In answer to Col. Webster's query , "How
do you stand with this convontioiU" Charley
Greenin a moment of confidencesaid , a dash
sight bettor than with my own.
George Warren , who is nn anti-monopolist
from away back , circulated freely and
looked daggers of disgust at several motions
liSaaiinously prevajlifig.
Strange Mooting of Brothers.
"Whllo in St. Augatino , Pin. , last
week , " said Mr. Louis Patison , of New
ark , N" . J. , to an Atlanta Constitution
scriblor , "I had what might bo culled a
most remarkable oxnorionco. I wna out
of work and was rntiior hard up. So I
applied to a batch of mon who were
working on anew building. They asked
mo what I could do , and I told thorn I
was a good mechanic , and could do car
penters work. The boss gave mo a
trial , and I got along very well for a
wool : . I was thrown a good deal with
OHO of the carpenters , who called him
self Dunning , and the mon were al
ways talking about tlio romardahlo ro-
sembhuico between him and mo. We
got into conversation and learned that
Dunning was my own brother , whom I
had not soon for twenty years. Ho ran
away from homo when fifteen years old
and wont to sea. About ton years ago
ho settled down in St. Augustine and
has boon duing woll. Ho lias made a
good living. All the family had long
ago given him as up dead. Ho still goes
undur the ntuno of Dunning , for some
reason ho has not explained , This is
what I call a curious coincidence.

Some cleht months ago there came ( o Omaha
an eminent physician who , after looking over
the City aud Hausfylng himself as to Us future
grontnoss , located an olllco and opened It for tlio
general practice of medicine , making a npeclalty
of catarrh nud tliroixt and lung troubles. Tlmt
physician wai what Is known in the profession
us an advertising pliyslclnu. Ho commenced ml'
vrrtlslmr In the dally papers , not ns the overage
advertising doctor does , promising to euro nil
manner ot incurable dlsoasos. but tnstoml.ho did
not promise anything but published each week
the testimonial of noma person whom ho had
cured. Those testimonials have not been taken
from mythical persons , but from well-known
citizens of the city , rltlzons who are kuonu far
and wide , and who Rlvo their testimony volun
tarily. Most of those patients were people who
hail boon treated before by different physicians
who did notbonent them In the least and had
tried patent medicines to no end nil In vain , and
as a lost resort had como to this physician ,
whore they obtained not only a relief , but a radi
cal and permanent euro. The physician roforicd
to Is ] ) r. J. Cresap McCoy , late IIOUFO 1'hyslclan
to the Ilollovuo Hospital , New York city , and
who has gained for himself wide fame ns a suc
cessful physlclan.ln thn west as w oil ns the east ,
Among tlio many patients of Dr. McCoy was n
young man , Mlclmol Murphy , who resides on
Eleventh stroetbotwcen Jackson and Jones. Mr.
Murphy was formerly an employe of the Omaha
llarb Wire works , ami was very well thought of
by his employers. "Ho took sick about n yenr
ago and was compelled to stop work , he tolls the
following to the interviewer.
MICIIAKt , „ . .
I commenced to feel poorly a year ago last fall
about I''alr tlmo. I kept netting weaker and
weaker , so much HO that 1 could Tuiidly walk a
block without becoming entirely out of wind. I
had hadacough for sometime , but It kept grow
ing harder ana harder until It almost exhausted
me. After a long hard cough I would spit up
some , but It was very hard to remove. I lost
tlosu rapidly , so much so that my clothes were
entirely too loose Tor mo. I nail night sweats
very bad , my coughing kept mu awnko nights a
great deal , und In fact Ijjot up In the morning
more tired than when J went to bed. Would
feel Homo fever In the morning nnd again In the
evening , or rather about 4 or D o clock. I hud no
dcalro for food , the night of It used to slckcnme.
In fact It was of little use to oat , for even the
lightest food would not htay on my stomach , it
was so weak. Jly lungs were vury sore , nud It
produced severe pnln to cough.
If anyone would have told mo that I would
pull through I would not have believed H. In
fact T wan told by four physicians of this city
that I could not b cured , and ono doctor told
1110 I would not live three months. I had read
the testimonials of Dr. McCoy In the dally pa-
purs , and at last mother thought we had better
L'o and sco him. I had hardly been out of the
house tor six or eight months , but wo managed
to got there , and uaw the doctor. Ho did not
guarantee to cure mebut thought my llfo might
be prolonged In comparative comfort. I decided
to take treatment , and was bcnofltted at once.
IJefore going to him I could not hold anything
on my stomach , but since the first treatment 1
have not thrown up once. I commenced to gain
Inlleihand strength ; my cough has left mo ;
my lungs are no longer sore ; and In fact , feel
the strongest part ot mo. I can take good long
walks now. Of course I am not as robust now
as w hen I was a boy , but 1 feel In good health ,
anil feel positive that the doctor saved my life.
.My friends meet mo while 1 am taking my
dally walks and aie surprised to sue mo , In fact
Home of them thought J WHS dead. I have hud
them tell mo so , but I am a pretty live man , us
you can see. J am more thau satisfied with my
treatment by the doctor , and I feel that I can
not say enough for him and I advlso all my
friends who are allllctcd to go and see him.
Can Catarrh Bo Cured ?
Tlio past ago might be called n superstitious
ono. The present can moro properly no called
nn ago of surprises , for many things once clubscd
among the fniposslbllltios have now become
everyday posslollltles. Jt would bosuperJluous
to enumerate them , lint nave we reached the
utmost limit ? Have wo ? ' Physicians who claim
to make certain nllmonta thu human body Is

does their jaylngjanws6"itso ? The man who
can coulu uio nearest to overcoming the eemlug"
Impossibilities of others is now all the rage , and
well docs ho or they deserve the success they
have labored so hard to attain. Dr. J. Oresap
McCoy or his associates do not make claims to
anything marvelous , such as raising the dead
ana giving them new llfo : neither do they claim
to give sight to the blind ; but by
their now and sclentillo method of treating
catarrh they have cured and do cure catarrh as
well as bronchial and throat troubles. They
make catanh a specialty , because His ono of
the most prevalent nnd troublesome diseases
that the people of this climate are heir to. Since
Dr. McCoy and his associates have located la
this city they have treated with success hun
dreds of persons whom other physicians have
told their disease was claused among thn In
curables. lo ) they not publish from week to
wuok In the dally papers testimonials from
some of their many grateful patlontH , giving In
each cane the full name and address of the per
son making the stutmneilt that the doubting
ana skeptical may call and Interview the said
people prior to visiting the doctors olllcos for
consultation. The people advertised as cured ,
are by no means obscure or unknown , but in
the majority of cases are citizens well known
by the business people and community utlurxw.
nnd It will more than repay any ono uulTerlng
from catarrlml nirection to visit those whoso
statements are pnbllHhed. or consult with the
the doctor or Ills associates at his office. .
