chairman of the county central committer,
railed the gathering to order and after
reading the 'call, called upon John 1.
Organ to act as temporary chairman.
Oraaa Makes Special Plea.
On assuming the gavel Mr. Organ ma-l
an address. In which he dealt the "stand
patter" ' faction of the republican, pany
In Iowa some solar plexus plows from hi
standpoint. He singled out - what he
termed the "city ring" In Council BluSt
for a vehement attack, declaring that the
slogan of the democratic campaign la
Pottawattamie county this fall should be
"down with the republican city ring."
The "city ring," he oharged, was controll
ing the affairs of the republican party
In the county, and the buslnesp of thu
court house. Then he made an appeal
on behalf of the Cummins candidates who
had been "ruthlessly" turned down by
the "Standpatters." "The success of the
democratic ticket In Pottawattamie
county' largely depends upon the support
to be received from the Cummins faction,
which met with consideration at the hands,
of the 'standpatters' when the lattur
found themselves In control of the re
publican county convention: The demo
cratic, fight roust not be against, 'stand
pat republicans as such, or Cummins re
publicans, but against the 'ring.' which
has practically controlled the -affairs of
Pottawattamie county for several years,"
he said. 1 ' ' '
Referring to County Superintendent of
Schools O. J. McManus and others, who
had failed of renomlnatlon by the republi
cans, he declred that they had been
turned down merely because of their
affiliation with the Cummins faction and,
because they had refused to bow the knee
to the standpatter element. He urged con
sideration' on the part of the democrats
for the faction which had been turned
down hy the republican managers In
Pottnwattamiiy county. ;.,
At the close of Mr. Organ's address the
following committees were appointed:
Credentials-Riley Clark. Neol; Domlnlck
Oioss,- Pleasant; J. Q. Hemsworth, Council

ten, James; George F. Dye. Carson.
. Following the appointment of committees
the convention adjourned for dinner until
1:30 p.. ra,
v
asjKCstlosjs Hot Heeded.
During the adjournment the, address of
Chairman Organ was the topic of dis
cussion among the delegates and It was
evident they were hot In sympathy' with
hla suggestions, but on the contrary there
was strong sentiment against naming
anything but a straight democratic ticket
andi subsequent proceedings of the con
vention showed this was so. In fact so
strong was the sentiment against placing
any Cummins republican on the 'ticket that
Mr. Organ, when the convention reassem
bled after dinner, felt It Incumbent on
himself to explain that his remarks In the
forenoon had apparently been misunder
stood. He said he did not, Intend to be
understood on Insisting on the nomination
of Prof, McManus - or .any other Cummins
republican,' who had been thrned down by
the standpatter element. All he wished
to be' understood as urging was that they
tiould be treated with consideration by
the democrats. - - - ,

ventlon endorsed the principles as enun
elated In the platform adopted at the sta;s

street- and alley committee, announced
that the street sweeper ordered ty the city
had been Shipped, and was scheduled to ar
rive In Counoll Bluffs .within a few days,

which they atated the sweeper could not
possibly, be here before September 1.
With a view to cancelling the first order
Mr. Wallace yesterday communicated by

the case Councilman. Wallace decided to
patiently wait with the hope that the ma
