The Democratic County Convention Session Until Midnight. In S1LYER MEN TAKE TO THE WOODS Tbo Defeat of Ulrlch, One of the Leaders of the silver Junta, la Very Signifi cant It Sounds the Death-Knell of Their Dogma In Sotmyl klll County. Pottavllle, July It It was midnight when the Democratic county convention adjourned, having completed the following ticket : JuiHin. Goorgo J. Wadllngor, Pottsvlllo. DISTRICT ATTORNEY. M. P. McLaughlin, Pottsvlllo. CO UN TV TREASURER. J. Al. Dcpow, Delano. ritomosoTAnY. A. Carey, Butler township. M. CLERK OF TUB C0CKT8. T. J. lliggins, Shonandoah. RECORDER. Joseph II. Nichter, Pottsvlllo. itEOis-rnit. Charles L. Adam, Mahanoy City. COUNTY COMMISSIONERS. Qeorgo Opio, Fralley township. F. J, llronnan, Shenandoah. TOOR DIRECTOR, Hoary Beckor, Tamaqna. The closing scenes of tho convention were n marked contrast to the orderly manner in which the proceedings wero conducted previous to tho nomination of Nichter. Tho latter had his "heelers" in different parts of tho convention, and voted at each and every opportunity. John Curran, an opponent of Nich tor's and a friend of Bressler, stood up In tho convention, and frequently protested against such hlgh-haudcd business in tho at tempt to count out bis favorite The chair man repeatedly called for tko polico, and finally tho actions of tho Nichter boomers became so opculy offensive to all fair play that Chairman Mulholland said: "Gentle men, nominations do not always moau elec tion, and conventions of this kind bring on disastorto the party. Give all candidates fair play." Two or throe of theso "repeaters" wero ejected from tho hall, whilo others crowded in tho hack of tho hall and voted. Theso men were not delegates. T. J. Mullahoy withdrew from tho contest, because of tho nomination of llig gins, and overybody thought then that tho delegates would strengthen the ticket by the nomination of Miller, but; the Nichtor- Ilfgglns combination won out, as follows: Nichtor. 7.1011; Dressier, 1,801; Portz, 2331; Millor, 1,601. The full voto of Shenandoah wont to Nicliter, ns did also Mahanoy City, lamaquannd St. Clair, and most of Potta vllle. The name of Goorgo Folmer. tho old Dem ocratic war horse, who bas done yoeman sor vico for the party, was not prosontcd to tho convention. J. Al. Depow. of Delano, a gold bug" Democrat, was nominated bv ac. clamatlon. The name of Michael J. Duffy. of Mluersvillo, was presented but withdrawn beforo tlie balloting bad proceoded far. Tho Butler township contingent, who sue. ceeded In nominating Carey with little trouble, forceed a slate of their owu, which bore tho name of Edward Iluniniol, of Pine- grovo, for Clerk of tho Courts. This, it was generally admitted, would havo strength' ened tho ticket, both as to nationality and location, but it leu by tbo wayside and Hie. gins was a winner by the closest vote of tho day There were many surprises in this contest, and delegates who were pronounced Ilnmmel men were apparently "touched" by the Nichter Influonce. Tho latter worked hard for lliggins. Thoio were two delegates irom Shenandoah who voted against Hleeins. X hoy were Matt. Qiblon uud John Burns. The vote was : lliggins. 5.8731: Freller. 060J; Hummel, 4,122; Necessary for a choice, 6,47a. When the ofllco of Heglstor was reached an earnest plea for the Wost Eud was made, but Charles L. Adam was nominatod ou first ballot. Tho ballot was as follows: Adams, 6,149; Kopp, 3,8231 ; Foulk, 1,1871. Thoro was as much interest in the contest forCounty Commissioner as for any of the other olllcos. Eleven candidates entered the race, with two from Shenandoah. It was late, many delegatos wero under tho Influence of fire water" and tho scones in tho Demo cratic wigwam at times beggars description It wasa repetition of tho Nichter contest, with a few variations. Order was out of the Ques tion, and one disturbance followed another in quick succession ; tho "heelers," paid six dollars each to do their work, wero promin em aooui me nan, anu aisgracelul scones markod tho second ballot, until finally the friends of Boylau, of Mahanoy Plane, pleaded for a fair count, but ploaded in vain, George Opio, of Frailey, ouo of the deputies in tho Sheriff's office, was nominated on tho first ballot, and F. J, Brennan. of Sheuan uoau, was seieciea as ma running mato on the second ballot, as follows : Brennan, 5,(111; uoylan, 3,2331, Tho friends of the latter candidate chargo fraud and threaten to get even. On tho first ballot Brennan received 4,533 votes, and Thomas E. Manloy 1,003. It will be remembered that lliggins and Manloy formed a combination at the delegato fight in Shenandoah, and many people aro inquiring bow it happened that lliggins was nominate1., and Mauley fell by the waysido. Perhaps tho friends ot the former can explain ? Oue thing is cerrajn, explanations aro ill order It was midnight when Henry Becker, of Tamaqua, was nominated for Poor Dlreetor on tho first ballot. Ills opponents were Samuel Koppenhaver, of Hubloy; Jacob Gintbor, Yorkvllle, and Daniel A. Croll Pottavllle, To state a plain fact, the ticket does not give satisfaction. It is not wisely con structpd, and locations wpre entirely Ignored in tho grand sculllo for ofllco. Then, again the silver men are much depressed because of tho treatment received by them from those controlling tho convention. Most of them nave taaen 10 me woous siuco Ulrlcu was defeated for permanent chairman. The two organs of the Silver Junta had previously declared that they would not support Wad. linger, and that If tbo delegates did not take a pronounced position on the silver issue, the whole ticket would go down to defeat. The leaden of tho Junta had resolutions In their pockets reading out of the party every man who did not support Bryan in 1800. They were not presented. If they had been tho man who read them would havo been fired out of the window. The silver issuo bas been relegatod to the rear in this county for ail time, Yesterday settled that.
