8 THE .OMAHA DAILY BEE: JUNE 1888 ~SIXTEEN PAGES LIVELY ~ PARTISAN PICNIC. Republioans Have a High Old Time at the Convention. LAMBS FOR THE SLAUGHTER. They Name Eight of Them For the Shambles Amid Most Noisy and Disgusting Exhibitions of Drivel and Inanity. The Nominees. The republican city convention met yester- day i the council chamber, and nom inated, as candidates for the school board, for three years, William Coburn, Fred McConnell, Stephen J. Broderick, W. A. Kelley and E. C. Cone. John C. Thompson was nominated to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of J. A. McClure; Dr. Spaulding and Charles Wehrer to scrve the unexpired term of one year of Messrs, T. W. Blackburn and H. J. Davis. Mr. Coburn is the sheriff of this county and & member of the board at pres- ent; Fred McConuell has been a member for a short time, and is of the firm of McConnell & Orr, sand and stone dealers; W. A, Kelley is a member of the present board and con- nected with the ml\ rtising department of the Republican; E. C has been in the employ of the city railway company : John C. Thompson is a printer; Dr. Spaulding, as bo inferred, is a physician, and Charles ‘Wehrer is a tinuer. Nolsy Delegates. There were represented sixty-three pri mary delegates, some of whom were elected by a vote of the magnificent number of five. SBomeof the delegates are esteemed in the party, others are made cushions about every time they aspire to representative positions. The former came to secure the nomination of friends, but scemed to feel that nomination meant political defeat, and went about their business in a perfunctory manner, regretting the obligations exacted of them by their as sociates. The other element went to nomi- nate fricnds also, and so surprised were thoy when they were granted the ineffable pleas- ure of airing their windy rhetoric that they seized the floor at every opportunity. The result was two hours of inanity, buncombe and big-littleness such as have not dist| guished a republican convention in this city for many years. George M. O'Brien Hilled the chair. It his maiden effort. With but one pa| weight on the desk to keep order, the young man succeeded beyond his own sanguinie expectations in restraining the noisy crowd. Rev. Mr. Copeland, with his long beard and pearly-tinted scalp, was present to look after the interest of the ladies, and he will have a long distance to look, because the con- vention left the ladies a great way behind. C. J. Ryan, from the Ninth ward, who said little, ‘but' thought a great deal ubout the show, looked his gayest during the rampus. Senator Wiggins was also there in the glory of a Marscillee vest and with the honor of a tacked on to the fame of a clean cut . Hon. William Marrow too, rose to hexunu of eloquence, from which he also dropped with the suddenness of a man who has to be told what he is talking about. Dave Mercer—well it was the house of David, and David was in every part of it. S0 was his pompadour, The noble order of Redman was represented, but not on the floor, by Redmun pere, while Redman fil, too, aimed to follow in the footsteps of his sire. Five colored men warmed as many chairs, but the five colored men kept their mouths closed. Aesthete Lit- tlefleld, from Saratoga, was radiant in the glory of a pansy blossom and a phenomenally curled mustache. Like Mr. Copeland he was also a ladies man. But it was a bad day for the ladies. Bennet, whose prenomen is that of the celebrated Hx-llm).h. long since deceased,, didn’t notice Marrow, whom he slugged some. tame ago, and Marrow didn’t trouble himself to force a recognition. Marrow was struck upon being recognized by the chair, and bolts of lightning from that Jupiterian abog vere soveral times launched in his direction, Frank Walters w lonely looking, outside side the rail, like a periat the gates of Hades. Tom Brunner had a good deal on s mind, He had a good deal also on his tongue and succeeded in getting it off with considerable persistency. Judge Julia Scooley forced him- self insid interrupted Judge Brown when th r was attempting to n the convention from disgrace. ‘The rtleman tartly rebuked the pestiferous mortal, Major C! son shot him with a weighty injunction to take himself off, and the crowd jecred at the checky intermeddler, Little Bismark jumped into notoriety once and yelled to a delegate who was talking to the chair, “Lefe dat chairman alone,” to the merriment of the crowd. Mike Ford, the re- ublican brother of Pat Fork, stalked around ike a modern reproduction of Cooper's “Leather Stocking,” while a _host of others mixed in the mazy daunce of button-holing until the sun shot in a dozen rays of tobac smoke, which were too earthly to be allowed to leave the room. Then the delegates re- tired. Had there been interest enough in the prizes at stake, a blacksnuth’s anvil and ham- mer would hardly have controlled the gath- ering. Three different styles were adopted to nominate delegates and then sacrificed for other plans. Bruner, of the ghth, de. nounced certain of these measures us schemes to ride through certain candidates, and his denunciation was us promptly repeiled. Joe Southard charged Seventh ward delegates with not being men of honor, aud one of the latter said in effect that no man could churge some of that delegation with lack of honor without having somebody to staud by him, This gentleman wanted a man in the board to represent Ambler place and vicinity. Prof. Bruner characterized the gathering with being as noisy as a base ball match, Judge Brown said if it could not transact its business peacefully it had better because ho fearcd the people would it at the polls on Monday, Everybody soemed 1o agree with him, but the next min ute everybody was ugain enjoying himself as most. suited his inclination. This scoring was occasioned by what the judge character- terized as without a paraliel under heaven, of voting for a candidate without a competi- tor. C.F. Goodman aliowed his name to go before the convention, but the i time it was mentioned, Colonel Marrow loudly yelled *rats,” Colonel Marrow’s ussistance was not apparent in the making up of the non-partisan t. Coburn was first nom- inated, los! two votes in the conv ward yoting for him, made two or three fellows yelt like Comanches. Even the Eighth ward voted for Coburn, The latter was not Mr. Brunner's choice Brunner delegntes held o meeting in th und three out of the five present agreed upon Dr, Spaulding. Brununer headed the Spauld- ing ticket at the primaries. Dennis Lane had boen nominated on it but had left it and 0 8 ticket of his own in favor of Coburn, But he got left at the polls and viewed the comvention from & spectator's scat, Bruun ophosition to Coburn, how ever, was inoffool Finally ull the can didates at lurge w renoninated be a vote coutaining 21y mor lots than were dele. ates in tho couvention. Somebody wanted inguire into the matter, but the vote had been announced. The others were nomi without much interest, though with a great deal of noise, und the delegates finally ad journed with us littlo enthusiusm as if each minute udded to the prophicey of success for the non-partisan tickot, " veee: 5 @Dave Mercer rapped the convention to order prowptly at 8 o'clock and gave out the motifieation that the object of the gathering was to nane eig ht members for the board of oduction, He advised his hearers to go s and ueo judgment in the selection of w andtherefore eradicatethe impressi n that had €one out that the republicsn party wis a ina chine affair. Judge Andcison nomineted George M O'Brien for temporury chairman and W, W. Keysor eta They wero made the permanent oflicer Josepl Sutheriand inforr the chal s uumober of the delegutes were absent, and moved that the delegation from each ward ©ast the number of votes thoir wards were entitled 0. Oaly one protest was made to the motion, which was carrvied. Mr. Mercer moved that the coivention proceed 1o naice eight candidates for the board of education, the five receiving the highest votes to serve for the long term and the three lowest for the short term, Delegates from the various wards were on their feet at_once to co being made that_thero were eyidence cutand dried affair. Cries whack at the school board ourselve and don't want one or two wards them all’” went up thick and fast Dave Mercer rose to defend motion, amid yells of ‘‘ues tion" and “sit down,” and abused those who did not agree with him by referring to them as “would-be orators,” He finally sat down, withdrawing his motion at the same time, Mr. Copeland secwred the attention of the convention and read the communication from to have his the woman suffragists, which had been pre- sented to the other mvention . Mr. Copeland championed the request of women and said it should be granted. They take part m the school board elections, and 1t is only fair that they should be repre- sented on the ticket. These ladies, Mr. Copeland said, are all republicans, and it was due in a measure to the offorts that the re- publican ticket was successful last year. A delegate moved that the communi ion be laid on the table, and this was nded by Mr. Southard that it be laid there tempor- Copeland warmly took exceptions this movement, ~ declaring that his expressed ideas had been seconded by delegates from his ward, and he thought the proceedure an outrageous one. The commu- nication was finally thbled, . Mr. Brunner précipitated the convention into chnos when he arose and moved that the convention proceed to name the candidat one by one, the first three being nominat to serve for the short term and the other five to serve from the city at large for the long wlterward | term, By those means he thought good men could be selected; men who could be elected. Dave Mercer and other delegates com- batted the motion, which was finally twisted around_and adopted so that the first five named be the candidates at large. Balloting was then commenced amidst much disorder and William Coburn, of the Eighth ward, was the first man mentioned. He was nominated by a vote of 60 to 3. After ratifying the nomination of Mr. Coburn every delegate in the room was on his feet and howled for recognition. Bgdlam had broken loose and the president was at sea under an avalanche of motions. In the midst of this storm nominations poured in thick ana fast, and the following were mxmvll M. S. Linds; Ninth ward; John ‘Thompson, Seventh; Stephen J. Broder- 14' Second: F. R. Jonnell, Fourth: Charles F. Goodman, st Charles ; Edward C. Cone, Sixth; Sixth. g taken on Mr. McConnell's name, he received the full sixty votes of the convention and was nominated. Mr, Southard kicked up a row when he asked that the rules be suspended and the nomination of Mr. Cone be made unanimous. He paid a compliment to Mr. Cone, whom he described as ‘‘an honorable young man, a proud young man und a marvied young man, whose house was swept away by a prairie fire last fall.”” A number of delegates were opposed to the Southard motion and intimated that the con vention was straying awusy from business principles. Mr. George F. Brown also ingly scored the gentlemen for their noisy and childish conduct, which he regretted .y much, and expressed fears that if they not mend their ways the republicans would be snowed under next Monday. Mr Southard insisted upon his motion, which was finally voted down. Mr. Brunner moved that the chair appoint two_tellers and that th cention pro- ceed to sclect the es from those receiving the number of votes over a majori be declared the nominees. This was carried and the follow- ing candidates were voted upon. While the vote was being polled a substitute motion that three candidates be selected at a time carried. The choices on the first lot W > ¢ made unanimous, and a delegate ar nd moved that the communication from the suffrage association be taken from the table and acted upon. Mr. Southard wanted it to remain where it as he had it from able legal gentlemen that the electing of women to the school board was unconstitutional, but he would not force his wishes, but w lling that the convention should vote upon it. The convention yoted to admnt the communication, and Mr. Cope- land thought that the titution did not in- terfere with ladies serving on the board, and in his opinion it would be a good stroke of po- litical policy to put at least two of the women on the tic Mr. George T. Brown was opposed to women serving on the school board, as he thought it was not the place for them to be, Yesides he did aot consider them eligible under the constitution. Mr. Copeland moved that two ladies be named to be nominated by the convention, and an amendment to this that any number the members may desire be v ried. This action made a dels under the cotlar, and he gave s his honest belief that & woman's place was at home, s ing that her house was kept i order and her children property cared for, and not gallop- ing aronnd with the 1001 bourd. “The conyention then settled down to bal- loting ag; and upon the call of nominees the names Mrs, Alma E. Keith, Mrs. Dinsmore and Mrs. Dr. Eleanor S. Daley mentioned. Following was the result r, Third ward, Dr S. K. Spaulding, Eighth, 47; John Thewmp- son, 60, Mrs. Keith received three votes, Mrs. Daley seven, and Mrs. Dinsmore three. On motion Mr. Thompson was chosen to fill the unexpired term of Mr. MeClure in the school board, after which the convention adjourned, Immediately after the central city commit- tee went into secret session to provide ways and meuns for conducting the election on Monday.
