There has not boon a spectacular or dra
matic entertainment Riven in Omaha for
year * -that could bo compared with tbat
given yesterday afternoon at Washington
hail by the democrat * ol Douglas county. It
was better than three great showt all under
ono tout ,
It was the democratic county convention ,
called lor the purpose of electing delegates
to the stale convention , which tnctits in tbis
city next Wednesday , to select delegates to
tbo national convention. Before the con
vention was called to orJer it was
tbo general belief tbat a very hitter fight
would be the result , for the feeling that had
been engendered at the primaries the day
lief ore appealed to be crowing tnoro violent
nnd outspoken every hour. Both the Boyd
nnd Martin facMons" claimed the majority of
tlie delegates nnd it wus plainly evident that
u tremendous storm % vos about to burst.
.liiM llcfnrr tlir JSoxr.
At S o'clock Washington hail began to
bum with the gossip nnd the gibes
tnd jeers of tbe usual democratic
convention. Tbo ward delegations , the pre
cinct \vbeol horses from the coun
try anii the local magnets began to
Ewurm In und tbe stew began to bubble as
only n rea bourbon stew cun bubble. Mar
tin men were claiming everything outBido of
tbe city tmd thirty-six votes inside , giving
them a lotul ol 11)2 ) votes as against Tb for
Boyd.
Mr. Boyd's friends said very little , but
locmod to be preparing fuel with a good deal
of earnestness all the while. Charles Ogden
Rnd Con Gallagher were among tbo first to
arrive. They got together immediately and
licgan to make a map of the field nnd to ue-
cids whore to open lire at tbo outset.
Peter Elsnssor , the German silver tongued
orator of the council , blew in at the opening
cf tbe show nnd Charles Conoyer. secretary
ot tbo Board of Education , was there before
tbe orchestra had finished tbe prelude , .leff
McGeath , M. T. Gannon , Mr. Birkhauser ,
J\nt Brown. Charles Oftutt , nnd other lieu
tenants in the democratic army , were nil
there and ready for the fray.
Tbo impression prevailed tbat tbe contest
between the Boyd and Martin hosts would be
& vigorous one. stubbornly fought to the end.
Tbe Bovd men professed to discredit tbe
claims of the Martin faction , but they ad
mitted that tbera would be no walkaway in
the convention for tboir side.
The couvention was not called until 8
O'clock , but the hour preceding the call to
oraor was a busy one lor tbe captains und
lieutenants who were Keeping their men in
line.
Culled to Order.
At B o'clock every seat in the ball , includ
ing tbo pallnry , was taken and standing
room was nt u premium. Mr. Thomas Daily ,
/ dhairmau of ttie democratic central commit
tee , stepped upon the stage and called the
convention to order. Ho suggested that a
temporary organization would be the first
thing in ortier , but some one yelled , "Read
tbe call"
Mr. T. F. O'Bnon. secretary of the cen
tral committee , began to read tbe
call for tbo convention , but before
be bad read fifty words tbe battle was on.
Borne one arose in the back part of the bouse
tnd declared that be wus not reading tbe
Bficiul cell us published. A crossfire of sev
eral minutes ensued , after which C. S.
Montgomery moved tnat a temporary organ
isation bo made at once.
Fought Over Organization.
This was tbe opening gun. Tbo Boyd fac
tion began to call for the presentation of a
31st of delegates before any temporary organ
ization should be attempted , air. i lsassor
was ono of tbe most vigorous in calling J or
the list first and temporary organization
nfterwards.
C. S. Montgomery took the floor. He held
tbat tbe temporary" organization should first
be effected and then the credentials should
como in. There -was a mingled howl of ap
proval and derision wboii Montgomery con
cluded his remarks , and then Charles Ogden
took tbe floor.
"Gentlemon , 1 am astonished , " said Mr.
Ogden , rising with tbe fall of applause that
followed Montgomery's remarks , " 1 am as
tounded that tbe ppntlotnc.ii who has just
spoken should make such statements in tbe
presence of this intelligent convention. He
knows thnt it is the rule and it is right and
Just tnat thoJlst of delegates elected be first
handed in before we proceed to vote even a
temporary organization. Tbete are hundreds
of men hero who have no right to vote in
this convention. We tnust first see tbe list
of delegates and then let the organization
iprocooa. "
There was n roar of applause and then tbe
bull begun to ring with : "Hand in your
list t"
A general movement of delegation leaders
toward ibe chairman then began , and it was
evident that Montgomery's motion to pro
ceed with a temporary organization first wus
poiug to bo lost in tbe shuffle.
"Are yon going to put my motion P' yelled
Montgomery.
"Sit down I Sit down ! ! " yelled the gal
lery. "SI' down and stay down 1" shouted
Bvoral voices.
The elephant then went round. For five
tninutcs the convention belonged to tbe man
Who possessed the strongest lungs.
Struggling lor Orilrr.
Major Paddock wanted the common herd
oporatrd from tbe delegates in the hall. He
shouted and howled , but could not be board
more than twenty feet from bis Boat. .Ho
finally burned tip to the footlights and kept
aemundiuE that ull who wore not delegates
should be removed to the rear of
tbe hall. The chairman finally found
out what Major Paddock meant , uud he
culled ujmn all those not holding credentials
to move back from the chairs occupied bv
delegates.
On went the dunce. A motion was mnae
to appoint a terpeunt-at arms and two assist-
luuts to cletr the hull of everybody excepting
the delegates.
George W. Tiorney was named as tbe Err-
' eoanl-at-anns und Messrs. Huslin and Her
man-were appointed tbe assistants , and they
atone proceeded to their work of separating
tbe goats from thesboep. They hud a diflicult
itfck lor tbe bull wus nucked.
Adam Stenghne \Vatorloo peocmct then
exploded in a burst of oratorical iudignatiou
tniit created u perfect whirlwind of iun.
Thought It uu Ilikult.
" 1 have been a citizen of Douglas cnuiitv
lor tweuiy.four years , " shouted the Waterloo
statesman iu u voice like t'je sbrlee of a
' .Mllicipe , "and 1 have neveryet seen the time
or I'laeo where it was necessary to have a
srrge&nt-at-urms appointed in & demo
cratic convention. It is an insult.
Jt Is * an outrage. H i . tu "
but tbe remainder of tbe speech was lost in
the hurley ouriey of sbouu and cat-call * that
turned tbo ball into D vocal cyclone. The
confusion was-fleufoniup and chaos reiguod
tnprtrne.
After about ten minutes nf energetic work
Jilr. Tieruey und hi assistants sucoeedcd-in
cutting the delegates nil seated and tbe
spectators removed to i. safe distance from
the rhltf purticipuuts in the convention.
Tbe motion to proceed to a temporary or-
ranlzalion wcs then called up , and n ter
kuother imsbuge-ux-uriu * between Offutt uud
Montgomery over permitting the double-
'heudurnolegutious to vote , the vote was taken
, ud carried. Tbe doubleheaderswere from
East Omaha and Chicago precincts.

C. S. Montgomery then nominated T. J.

int , after wrangling 'or ton minutes , the
Ixteon votes trom the hop pucklnr city were
counted for Manoney. Tnis was one of the
total * that the Martin tnen hoped to pain by
i delay In announcing the rote. They also
charged that other votes hua been crrone-
out.tr reported.
Tbe Soootid ward of Omaha then became
he bone of contention , Councilman El-
sust-or held that tb re tvns no split in tbe
Second ward. But there was all the & &tue ,
or appeared to be at least.
Itntru Went 'Mr. Martin.
After a crcat deal of ciost-flriuc about
iroxiet ana polliuc votes luaiviau&lly , rather
bnn by wards , ttio chairman Dually ham
mered the convention to order nnd said that
.he result would no announced. Acutn
Montgomery rushed forward and howled at
be chairman. Martin , al o , flexv toward the
ooUiphU uud said fcotnethlnp in a sharp and
determined' manner. Elsasser and others of
tbe Bard Indian hurried to the front and
veiled for the announcement ol the vote tor
temporary chairman. Elsusser shook bis
list in Montgomery's face nod the pallcry
[ airly roared with ddipbt.
'J'bon the vote was announced. It stood 00
lor Mnhoiicy and 114 lor Offutt.
While the hail rnnp wllh the shouts of the
3ovil faction Offutl wus boosted upon the
stn'pe rir-ht over the footlipbts and tbe first
knock-down bloxv was scorad by tbe Bo.vd
111UI1.
111UI1.Mr. . Offutt thanked the convention tor the
honor and said mat be wished to correct the
statement made by Chairman Duller to the
effect that ho i Offutt i represented the Boyd
ucUon. He did not represent any
'action. Ho did nut j.rormo to be partial ,
jut he would have "order. Everybody
would be treated fairly by bis riiliups so far
as it lay "within bis power.
Announced tin' Holt.
Then cttno the moit dramatic event of Ibe
day. T. ,1. Mahoncy cot the floor and Ktiid
ho" arose to R question of privilege. Despite
the yelln ol derision bo bold the floor and
said :
' 1 came into this convention thinking that
every dolecate bonciUy elected to represent
tne democrats of this county would have an
opportunity to have his vote fairly counted.
But we have been dmuppointea and will
withdraw ana lot these gentlemen lane the
responsibility upon their own shoulders , "
Tbe effect of Mr , Mabouey's retnarKS was
that of a thunder clap. The yells that fol
lowed from the throats of the Martin men
fairly shook the building , and rising as , one
man they began to make their way toward
the dopr. Expressions of minpled astonish
ment and satisfaction wore depicted upon
tie feces of tbe Boyd men and the contusion
wus simply territie.
Chairman Offutt pounded the table with
bis cane , but nobody paid uny attention.
He finally called to tbo benreant-at-armt to
call in u couple of police officers to help
bring the bouse to orucr.
Tbe Martin faction liepl inovinc toward
the door and the sarpeant-at-urms and bis
assistants , with the assistance of the police
soon restored order.
Order Taken t | > .
Ed P. Mullen was elected as secretary and
the convention bsgan to get down to busi
ness. The following committee was ap
pointed on credentials : Warren SwiUIer ,
.Thomas O'Brien. Con Gallacuer , W. O. .bus
ter , Charles Ofrdon , Thomas Birmingham
and John H. Watts.
A motion cinac the delerates present
power to cast the full vote of ibe precincts
represented was made and carried.
The committee on credentials withdrew to
prepare a report , A share of the spectators
followed the Martin faction to Uermania
ball. Half an hour after tne preat split the
committee on credentials came in and re-
portod. The holes that had bsen knonkod in
the various delegations by tbe Murtin bolt
\vero patched UD and proxies pivou seats to
fill up the ranks.
There was trouble in Chicago precinct. A
double-header had come in from that pre
cinct , but both were for Boyd. Tbo com
mittee recommended tnat each delegation
be allowed tocast two and -one-half Voles.
That arrangement did not suit the
Biorbuoh delegation. The trouble arose over
the fact that the polls had been closed at 4
o'clock and opened again atG o'clock Tbe
Jeffries delegation was for Cleveland first ,
last and all tbo time , and did not propose to
yield the ground to Hill sympathizers.
IlcriYiiK Auutlier Holt.
It was finally decided that both delegates
should be allowed to vote In the convention.
Tbe Blerbach delegation then arose indig
nantly and withdraw irom tbe hall.
"You urb following a very Dad example ,
gentlemen. " said Chairman Offutt , and a
jeer followed the retiring -delegates down the
stuirs.
The temporary organization was then made
permanent.
Mr. Tierney offered a motion to have a com-
niitteo appointed , composed of one from each
ward and precinct , for tbe purpos-e of select
ing 103 delegates to be sent to the state can-
vontion.
Harry Mlllor of the Eighth word was
stoutly opposed to any such arrangement.
He wanted the convention to select tbo dele
gates , not a committee.
It was finally decided that each warfl of
the city should be represented by seven dele
gates , riouth Omaha by fourteen delegates
and each country precinct two dels-
gates. The chair was then instructed
to appoint a committee of seven
to receive the names presented by tbe ward
and precinct delegations. Charles Off Jen.
G. W. Tierney , Harrv Miller , Miles Walhh ,
Thomas Dally and Richard Burdish were
appointed.
Uoyd Euaontpd.
A motion to instruct tbe Douglas county
delegation to vote for Governor James E.
Boya for delegate-at-larce Irom Nebraska
at tbe state convention was offered and cur
ried with a whirl ,
When tbe committee came in Mr. Warren
Switrler offered a resolution exnressing it as
bolnp the tense of the convention that the
best interests ol the democratic parly and
tbo country at large demanded the nomina
tion of Grorer Cleveland. Mr. Bronnun ot
tbe Second ward objected to tte passage of
such a resolution , but ho was in tbe hopeless
minority. The resolution was carried with a
whirl , there boinc not more than a doi.eu
votes iu tbe negative
Governor IloyU'fc SmtluioiitK.
Governor Boyd , who bad boon present
from tbe very opening of tut ) rouvuntion ,
was called to tbe stage. He talked otilv a
few moment * and said tbut ho Ye > -
crottcd very much to see dissension
in tbe ranks of tbe democratic party.
He had done all he could bouoiubly , to
prevent such c state of affair * , but Mr
Martin imd bit friends had demanded con
cessions of him that no fair minded man
could think of making. Mr. Martin not anlv
\vanted toga to the national convention but be
wanted Mr. Boyd to use his influence to get
him appointed at tbe Nebraska member of
tbe national committee. This was more than
Governor Boyd could concede and tbe iipht
was then inevitable. With regard to hit at
titude toward Cleveland and Hill Mr. Boyd
said he did cot think it necessary or wise for
tbe delegate ! ) from Nebraska to tie their
hands and pledge themsolvet to cither Hill
or Cleveland , because it wus ratbor doubtful
if either of them could be elected on account
tne factional fight in Sew York. It might
booome necessary for tbe p rty to take some
other inau iu order to insure success ,
The governor remarks were heartily ap
plauded.
Tbe list of 103 delegates to tbe state convec
tion was then read uud the convention ad-
jourued.

characterized n tbo most disgraceful affnirs
which nan ever occurred in the history cf

carried a majority ot wards und precincts.
Upon thli being known a program of

chairman and secretary undertaking to run

saw with bin own eyes the proxies go
down Into tbe pockets of tbo tnoutb-
iest man in the state of Nebraska.
In conclusion be wild that tbe Martin wing

\ VhilovoHitic for tbe committee to ropnrt ,
Mr. Montgomery was called upon to t\ddrcs
the convention. He briclly rtviowed the
events ol tbe preceding two diivs. He said
that he stood at ths Ninth ward tolling place
Friday afternoon nud suwCupUiuO'Douohue
and .lack Morrison bring n wagon load of
Third ward voters there to vota them. HP
challenged twenty-five of them , and but two
of them swore in their votes. He said thnt
when he reuonstrutca with Chairman
Duller about the South Omaha delegation ,
the chairman finally said : "Woll , we will let
you count your delegation , for vou can't
elect your chairman any way. " That from u
presiding officer supposed to treat all fairly.
Mr. Montgomery suid be expeolufl the Mime
trouble in tbe suite convention , as Mr. Ogden
would undoubtedly try tbo bamo turtles
that had been tried on this occasion.
Tbe onlv thing that tninht stand in the wny
of iuir treatment there wus the fuel thut a
conspiracy hufl etis-tcd for yours to curry tbe
state iu tbe pockets , of tbrcr or four men. To
this cue. county central committees biia
uamod delegates Instead of allots ing the
democratic voters to exercise their rightful
Junctions in that capacity. JudceCruwTora
had engineered tbe scberne through at West
Point and Jim North at Columbus. They
bad tried to do it in this county. Tbe ser-
geant-at-arms. appointed by tbo other eouvc-b-
tioti. George W. Tierney , had told the
speaker so only ttiroo weeks ago , but tbo
scheme bad miscarried.
Tbe speaker claimed that the delegates
present represented n majority of the. legally
elected delegates 13 tbo convention numed in
tbo call. He was satisfied that they repre
sented the bDtt'T element of the democratic
party , or more properly true democracy , that
dia not regard with laver tbo actions of Gov
ernor Boyd and one or two others who wore
bent on carrying tbe party around in their
pockets in tbo future ns they .bud donoir the

there had been elected by fraud und intimi
dation on the part cf Governor J. E. Boyd ,
wbn visited the polling place and demanded
to know why certain illegal votes had been
thrown outi and lusistod on their being

that tbe no verb or caused biicseii

that he comjieUed tbo admission of rotes that

HBtlsued were illupul. He not only coerced

ing of illegal ballots to such uu extent
tbut ho secured tbe election on the
