He felt proud of our city for what it has done for civilization, and he was proud that he was a republican. So great was his love for Uhls republican party that he had been irresis- tably drawn up three flights of the worst stairs he ever had seen to be With them; and he was with them in their struggle for suffrage. He felt ashamed that the people of this District had not the same privileges that the citizens of the states enjoy. OTHER REMARKS. * Mr. John F.

In the 20th (contested) district the committee re orted In favor of referring the credentials of both sides back to the people for another elec- tion. The report was adopted. The crowd and confusion becoming very annoying, Mr. Isaiah Washington moved that those not delegates be requested to retire to the back part of the hall, where they could find seats. The chair directed that all the ee eS retire to the rear of the hall, and that the secretary call the roll of members and they take seats fn front as called. A LIVELY CONTEST FOR THE CHAIRMANSHIP. Nominations for permanent chairman being in order, Isalah Washington nominated George Holmes. E. W. Whitaker, Arthur Shepherd, W. B. Reed and J, W. Buker were also nomi. nated, after which the nominations closed. Clarence Barton moved that the secretary call the roll of delegates and each one vote viva voce for his choice; adopted. On motion of J. W. Bu- ker, It was decided that a majority of all the votes cast should be Ae juisite to elect. The first vote was a tle between Holmes and Reed. After the first voté, Messrs. Shepherd and Buker withdrew thelr names from the contest in favor of Mr. Reed. Mr. Whitaker also declined. The second ballot showed Holmes 30 and Reed 31. Considerable disorder here followed,many being excited and loudly declaring that THE VOTE HAD NOT BEEN FAIRLY TAKEN, Reed’s friends raised a perfect stormn of hurrahs, while Holmes’ friends were loud tn their indig- hant protests. Out of all this confusion quiet was finally so far restored as to give the chair- man a chance to announce that he would order another vote taken. Mr. Buker objected to this, saying the vote had been officially announced, and should stand, no matter who clamored. GREAT DISORDER followed, in which charges of illegal voting could be heard, and counter charges, all yelling at the top of their voices, and the chairman ; belaboring the desk with a heavy cane to restore order, but it was some time before he could be he Mr. Buker proceeded to say that he fhougae Uhe chair was making a bow Srephaeerd in ordering another vote simp! ely one had been disappointed; beside this th the vote 0 squarely taken. The vote was ordered and the confusion and excitement was repeated, but much Intensified. Considerable time was spent in disputing and wrangling on the rights of alternates to vote In the absence of delegates, and the chair decided that that was what they were for. Many other points were raised, seem- ingly to keep up a din and confusion, and A PERFECT BABEL OF VOICES pr evailed all over the house. Henry Himber’s ro- ust baritone could be heard above them all. The chair finally restored ener quiet, ang, in a beseeching tone, sald: “What ts te usé of Mr. Himber and others talking so loud; It on! adds fuel to the flame!” The yelling continu and the ae the chairman on the desk continued, he being unable to announce 4 vote, Every body was on the floor talking at once, Himber being the most prominent, as he was the tallest. e chair: ““Himber, take your seat; come to order; why don’t you come to or- der?” The chair said those not_ members were making more noise than the members, DISPUTING THE COUNT.
