THE 1 FJDEM PARTY ,
Delegates Selected to Boprcsent This County
at tlio State Convention.
UNPLEDGED TO ANY CANDIDATE.
A. Boutliucnt In Favor of Van AVyclc
for Governor Speakers Cautloli
Against a Fusion A.
Quiet Gathering.
The Independent people's county conven
tion was booked to ineot at Exposition hall
yesterday afternoon nt ! 3 o'clock. At the appointed -
pointed thno the delegates began arriving
from all quarters nnd kept straggling In until
about 3 o'clock , at which time thorowero
nearly ono hundred and seveaty-flvo present.
The convention was called to order by C.
Vt. Miller , a prominent Knight of Labor or-
gnnizcr , and chairman of the county central
committee of the independent party. The
BBcothik' was very quiet nnd harmonious , but
&ngKl considerably In transacting business.
'J'fioro was seine talk of introducing an nntl-
prohibition resolution , but it was discouraged ,
und not tlio least reference to tlio question
ivas made in the convention.
The delegation which was selected to rep
resent the county nt the state convention
stands unpledged , and no candidate wus
mentioned lu the convention. During ono of
the numerous recesses to allow committees to
report a strong sentiment was discovered In
Ckvor of ex-Senator C. II. Van Wyck for
covernor. It could not bo learned , however ,
iiow strong this sentiment was In the dele
gation which will go to Lincoln.

After the convention was called to order J.
W. Edgerton , set-rotary oC the county neutral
committee , read the call for county and state
conventions.
The temporary organization was effected
by electing C. W. ftllller chairman nnd J. W.
Kdgerton secretary.
A committee of five on credentials was ap
pointed as follows : A. Mlllor , Allen Hoot ,
. S. Emmoas , P. B. Illbbard , James IClti-
ney.

A recess of fl f teen minutes was takea to give
the committee time to report.
At thooxnh-.xtion of that time the conven
tion was called to order and calls made for
Mr. Edgorton , the secretary , for a spoSSh.
Mr. Edgerton said the convention was ono
of the most important events which had ever
occurred in tbo state as fur as the laboring
man ivas concerned. The laborer had been
promised relief by both of the great political
parties , but his condition was still the same.
The only remedy was for the laboring men to
tnlro their own case ia hand. Ho predicted a
largo majority for the man who tool : up the
lutercats of the laboring men.
Mr. Ed/jortou / said ho had bolted
the republican ticket seven years
ago because ho saw that the railroads
wcro running the politics of the state. He
had lost much , financially , by this notion , bu
ho looked into the future and ho hud a family
to bring up , therefore ho wanted to see i
change in the way allalrs were managed.
He counseled union on tbo purt of the
farmer nnd the men In the city. Tlio inter
ests of both were identical and they shouli
work together. Ho hoped if there was an ;
man present who had any bail motive in viov
some one would expose him. Ho warned th (
delegates against any fusion with either o
the old parties , and advised against sending
delegates to Lincoln who had some pe
schemes to carry out or who were tied up to
any man , us the people should rule.
At the conclusion of Mr. Edgerton's ' nd
dross Mr. K. L/ , Wheeler of South Omaha
was called for. Mr. Wheeler said hohni
been n granger until he got too poor to bo a
granger , and slnco tticn ho has been preach
ing. Ho spoke of his experience among the
farmers lu the western part of the state , nm1
advised a careful consideration of the mer
who wore proposed as candidates. If n goot
roan was nominated there would bo no doubl
about bis election.
Mr. Wheeler referred to the condition of
tlio miner of Pennsylvania , who starves for
want of corn , and the fanner in Nebraska ,
who freezes for want of cool , which brought
forth great n ppluuso.
Mr. Mel ) u 111 o , one of the delegates of tha
farmers' alliance , was called for and re
sponded by saying that the farmer and the
laboring man hud made this fertile valley to
bloom as the rose and had built railroads
across It , but now the politicians say they nro
only ignorant men nnd don't deserve any
thing. Ho took exceptions to this state of
affairs and hoped to sco all classes of labor
united in n common cause. Ills remarks
were followed by loud applause.
A. 0. Wolcott wus called for. Ho said lie
was n farmer and advocated a lowering of
freight rules and u bettering of the condition
of the fanner.
- At this time the committee on , credentials
made Its report to the effect that ell the dele
gates nbovo named bo entitled to scats In the
convention. 'Jho report of the committee
ttus adopted.
The temporary organization was made per
manent.
Tlio following committee on resolutions
was appointed ! E. AI. McDuflle , EH Liu mi ,
0 , AV. AVolcctt , James Klnuoy und H.
Easton.
Ou motion of S. P. Brfcham it was decided
that all resolutions bo referred to the coin-
mltteo without debate.
Allen Hoot made a motion that the cltv
choo.fo seventeen delegates to Lincoln nnd
the farmers' ulllnnco cheese eight delegates.
After considerable discussion on whether
South Ornahu was to bo Included In the dele
gates this motion was put to the convention.
Tlio objection was ruised that the motion
should not read "fanners' alliance , " but
should bo "county precincts , " as this was not
u tanners' alliance movement , but uu inda-
pondeut people's movement. No action was
taken on this suggestion and the motion
prevailed.
It was decided that the chairman of each
delegation act as u member of u committee to
select twcuty-flvo delegates * to Lincoln , und
.ho chairmen of the several delegations with
drew for that purpose.
In about half an hour tlio chairmen re
turned and reported the following delegates :

The delcgatas selected by the committee
were elected by acclamation.
Proxies were barred mid the delegates

The next thing In order was the appoint
ment of the county central committee , and it
was decided to have ono member from each
voting precinct. These -were appointed and
elected by acclamation.
A collection was theji taken up to defray
the expenses of hull rent , etc. , it being re
marked by the chairman that the party had
no ono with a big boodle to como in aud pay
the expense. ? .
The committed on resolutions submitted its
report , endorsing the declaration of princi
ples in tlio call for a convention , with the ud-
clltlonof a clause in favor of an eight-hour
day on all pubUo'oud private work , und an
other favoring tlio adoption of the Australian
ballot system. All laboring men were in
vited to join In the movement. The report of
the committee was adopted.
Air. Tiemoy called the attention of tliecon-
vcntion to the fact that September 1 was
labor day nnd a legal holiday , and hoped nil
laboring men and farmers would unite lu cel
ebrating the day in a lilting manner.
The meeting closed by giving three cheers
for the independent party.
The County Commissioners.
When the county commissioner : ] met yesterday -
torday afternoon Mr. Berlin was the ab
sentee.
The request of John Thomas to bo released
from Constable '
Farquhar's bond was re
jected , after considering a communication
from County Attorney Mahonoy. Mr. Ma
honey gave it as his opinion that should
Thomas bo released from liability It would In
no wny affect the acts heretofore performed
by the constable.
The petition of the residents nlcng the line
of Western avenue , asking that the street bo
graded , was referred.
The usual number of bills wcro presented
and allowed.
In the case of George M. Dyers , who on
the I'Jth day of October. ISSO , drove Into an
open ditch on the public highway at Co.U
creek , thereby Injuring his team and himself -
self , County Attorney Mahoney gave an opin
ion that the county is not llablo for any in
jury sustained by u person traveling upon a
highway , by reason of any defect In the
highway or bridges. Bycrs' bill was 050 ,
nnd after the consideration of the report by
the attorney the bill was rejected.
The committee on grading from the city
council appeared before the board and asked
for a portion of the { 11,000 that has been ap
propriated for paving Thirtieth street , from
Ames avenue north. The board listened , and
