tee. The morning session was utilized to
permit some of the party orators to let
off the oratorical energy they hav.
been storing up and, Incidentally, to
talk on the expediency of obeying
Iiryan snd choking off the fight that
threatened to convulse the convention.
These included ex-(,ovcrnor Hon of
T.xas, Dockery of Missouri, candidate
for governor; Mayor Rose of Milwau
kee and Governor Beckham of Ken
tucky. Webster Davis, who gave up his snug
berth at Washington to espouse the
Boer cause, was Invited to address the
convention, and he fairly electrified the
uudleiice with a brilliant speech. In
which he told why he gave up the first
assistant secretaryship of the interior,
withdrew his allegiance from the Re
publican party and plunged headlong
into the open arms of the Democracy.

brought into service, and a striking
demonstration resulted. As he con
cluded by stating that he stood upon
the platform and would suport the
Democratic ticket, his hands wer.
warmly clasped by Chairman Jones,
Chairman Richardson, Senator Till
man and a dozen of the national com
mitteemen grouped about him, and the
crowd again shouted itself hoarse.
Nominations of candidates for Pres
ident of the t'nlted States were then
declared In order, and the roll of states
was ordered to be called. Alabama
yielded to Nebraska, and Deputy Attor
ney General W. I). Oldham, of Nebras
ka, took the floor and placed W. J.
Bryan in nomination. Re paid a bril
liant tribute to his chief, and conclud
ed as follows: ,
With the Issues now clearly drawn no
foubt remains as to the name of our
tandldate, n that question we are a
reunited Democracy. Alreaily worthy al
lies, differing rrom us rather In nurne
than fnlth. have shouted for our gallant
leader ngnin. and every state and terri
tory has Instructed its delegates to this
convention to vote for him here. So It
only remains for Nebraska to pronounce
the naine that has been thundered forth
from ths foot of Hunker Hill and echoed
back from Sierras' sunset slope, and that
reverberates among tha pine clad, anow
capped hills of the north and rises up
from the slumbering flower scented
savannahs of the south; and that name
is the name of William Jennlnaja Bryan,

roar from ill parts of the hall. Up
went the delefuites upon their chairs,
over their heads went the flaRs, and

performed Its share, but the noise of

New York vied with Nebraska and
Kansas In venting Its enthusiasm.
Richard Croker was on a chair, both
arms aloft, a ting In his right hand,
which ho waved vigorously. Hill was
not. behind him in the show of loyalty
to the nominee and, waving his arms,
ho let forth a series of cheers that
equaled those uttered by any man on
the floor.
Round and round the hall went ths
marching column between two walls of
cheering men, who stood beneath a
cloud of fluttering flags. It was a
demonstration fully equal In fervor to
anything that has preceded It. It was
not until 27 minutes had elapsed from
ths moment Mr. Oldham had mention
ad tho word "Ilryan" that the cheering
had subsided and the convention was
