AFTERNOON SESSION.
The delegates began gathering at
the hour appointed, but It was a halt
hour later when the convention was
called to order by Chairman McMahon.
The tempoiary officers wer made
permanent, with the addition nf m. a
Hand, of New Mllford, a reading
clerk, and James J. O'Neill, of Grat
Bend, and E. H. Redding, of Rush, .is
tellers.
Chairman Doherty, from comml'tee
on resolutions, reported brief resolves,
In which the national and state p'at
forms of the party were reafllimed
and national and state candidates
weie heartily endorsed. The platform
declares strongly in favor of the elec
tion of United States senators by a
dltect vote of the neonle. dennimnoo
Governor Stone for appointing M. S.
Quay to the senate and scores "Quay
Ism" and all forms of "bosslsm." The
leading of the resolutions were re
ceived listlessly, and even the name
of Bryan failed to cause more than a
faint tipple of applause. The platform
was unanimously adopted. .
Nominations being in order, n enn-
uniaio tor congress from the Fifteenth
dlstilet was first named In the per
son of John M. Kelly, erq of Mont
rose, a prominent attorney, nnd the
present chairman of the Democratic
county committee. As there was no
opposltlon.the secretnty was Instruct
ed to cast a ballot for Mr. Kelly, and
he was so nominated; the same meth-
ou uemg employed in making nil oth
er nominations except that of Jury
commissioner, over which there was
a spirited contest.
OPPRESSIVE SILENCE.
When nominations for representa
tive were called there was a long and
oppressive silence. The chairman
urged that some one should be sug
gested, nnd at last a delegate named
Herbert Fish, of Springvllle, but Mr.
Fish hastened to withdraw. After
another silence, the tension was to
lleved by borne one naming Richard
M. Brush, of Oakland, and he was
nominated with a rush. It was de
cided to nnme but one candidate for
the legislature at present, in the hope
of opening the way for assistance
from anti-Quay Republicans.
For prothonotary, four different
candidates were mentioned, but each
immediately declined. The iflfth nt
temi t bticceeded, ns the candidate was
not presnt and so could not decline,
and John J. Hnnd. of New Mllfnr,!
was made the candid He.
For Jury commissi mer, an office
which by the provisions of law Is
made a "sure thing" for the minority
party there was a long nnd determin
ed strife. Five candidates were pre
sented to the convention, and it took
five ballots to decide. The happy
man was Richard Rooney, of Apola
con. Dr. John G. AMlson, of Mont
rose, was nnmed for coroner.
Befote adjournment County Chair
man Kelly was called before the con
vention t-nd made a brief 'but telling
speech, which was enthusiastically re-
ceivuii.
The Independent Republican con
rent ion was held In the arbitration
room at the court house, and wni
composed of "Chairman" E. B.
Beardslee, of Little Meadow; "Secre
tary" W. P. Bailey, of Brooklyn, and
Mr. Graves, of Little Meadows, who
was the solitary delegate. They
passed resolutions which endorsed the
Republican national nnd state tickets,
but remained silent as to county mat
ters nnd then adjourned.

The stock of the company advanced 14 under

affording a rather striking contrast to the in
difference with which June reports of some other
rillreiaiis were received. The largo net increase

housekeepers Are the Ones Who Gain
by This Greatest of Half Yearly Sales
Out stock is necessarily large. The door space demands it.
Wc buy in reallv phenomenal nuantltle-t. W ernr th ,.-.,
bwest of prices, We prepare these half yearly sales weeks ahead.
Little wonder, then, that they form one of the supremest tradintr
events of the store.
Here arc some interesting facts for you to ponder over:
An area of over twelve thousand square feet is given over to
this half yearly sale. Every foot oi it is crowded.
Over half of this space must be emptied before October, when
Santa Gnus and other store events demand the room.
It Is but business sense and prudence that we shave prices to
reduce stock. It also enables you to buy for much less than usual.
