I It Has Both Elements or Strength Weakness. and HE FRIENDS OF CURRAN ARE MAD They Threaten Dire Vengeance, and are Joined In That Kespect by Those Who Opposed the Nomination of Fergu 1 Bon-Stormy Scenes. Ppccinl HKnAM Col-re pomlcnce. l'oTTSVILI.K, August 11. Tho Dqmocratlo county convention of 1690 Is a thing of tho bast. Tho "untcrriflcd1 havo met and ndjourncd, and tho result Is anything but pleasant to tho rank nnd til o of the party. In fact, they had very littlo to do with naming tho gentlemen whoso names appear upon tlio ticket. Tlio Democratic party in this county is controlled "body nnd breeches" by a comblno In this town, as has. been fully demonstrated by the events of yesterday. Tlio combine selected lion. James E. llren nan, of Soutli Uiss, as their candiuato lor chairman of the convention, whilo thoso candidates who had not been slated presented tlio namo of J!. S. llashore, Esq., of Tremout. Tho latter was selected, ahd many are of tho belief that had tho convention followed this up with a voto for Congresi previous to the noon adjournment tho personnel of the ticket would bo different from what it is, nnd that ex-District Attorney Rynti would havo been nominated fur Congress. He is in closer touch with tho silver sentiment of tho party, whilo Shepherd has been looked upon as in sympathy with the conservative element of tho party. I ho bhcnaiuloah representatives wero greatly interested in tlio vote on l'rotlmno- tary, for which oilico Harry Urndigan has been a conditional candidate for a week or so, although public annuouuement was only made the day before tho convention and nfter hu had been slated by the combine For this reason tlio friends of Mullahcy, Iircmian andIcOiiiniss feel that they were not treated faiily, especially after they had made an open nnd square, fight and spent their money in making a canvass. Many threats' wero niudo yesterday after llnullgau had been nominated, and if tlio bitter feeling that now exists does not abnto before the date of elec tion tlio returns from north of the mountain will surpriso thoso who wero in control of yesterday's convention. A strong effort was made to break tho slate, but it was successful in only one lustance and that was because of Philip J. Council' personal strength. Although the latter was not slated, thoso who wero in tlio combine, with tlio probable exception of a young man from tho Cusses by tho name of Currau, realized that that was the weakest point, and that if tho cOrabino went down it would be on Clerk of tho Courts, It was tlio hardest fight of tho day. Dur ing tlio voting tlio feeling was intense Every fli-o minutes tlio delegates would bo como Involved in somo dispute and tlio chair man would havo to suspend business until tho Sergcant-at-arms restored order. Tlio feeling waB so bitter at ono time that a small riot was luirely averted. Editor Joyce brought forth tho iro of Delegate Keuncy, of Clmrdvllle, who declared that "no liemib- 'llcan editor had any right to take part in tlio proceedings" and ho wanted the American's quill pusher ejected from the hall. Tho lat ter was soon surrounded by a small mob, but during all this titno tho Ilurko Cochran of Schuylkill ltepubllcanism was as calm and composed as a Jersey mosquito. Ho was not ejected, Curran's, friends take their defeat' hanl, and it will require all tho Ingenuity and per suaslvo powers of tho leaders to heal the soro. Tlio fact that Folmcr and Currau were both defeated threo years ago, and tho former was again nominated whilo tho latter was turned down, causes Curran's friends to accept their treatment with bitter feelings. Notwithstanding tho fact that it was clearly shown that 1. J. Ferguson, ho of other than auburn hair and hailing not from Shenandoah, "knifed" the tickot when Lcary was a candidate, ho was placed on tlio ticket. It was tho will of tho Combine, and tlintjWus law,yoterday. Watch tho returns from fho'Mabanoy valley tho tmornlng after election, when it will be seen thnt it does not always pay to bo "crooked." There is no question but that boodle played an important part in carrying througli the slate-, This is nothing unusual, howover, as tho same "motive power" was resorted to last Monday o week. In fact, politics has be come so degraded in this county that it is al most necessary fur a man to havo a tyiuk ac count td bo nominated, WhlleUheru Is much dlssatUfactlon'aniong the friends of tho defeated candidates from Shenandoah, tho men who managed tho canvass of'youug llradlgan ar'o to bo con gratulated for tho succefcsful termination of the contest. Prominent among theso was Charles J. Qulnn, Jamos F. O' Karen, P. J. and James Cleary. Tho heat was Intense in tho convention hall. So much 'so that tho nomination of Ilrodi- gan caused Mike Doylo to disappear. When ho again returncdiho was bedecked in a now crash suit. The latter began to wlltcriwhen Martin was named for Commissioner. Such Is politics--mighty uncertain. ' .
