The convention was called to meot at 10 o'clock, but three-quarters of an hour later there was @ bare sprinkims of demo- crats io the hall. Chairman Ogden of the atato contral committee made his appearance on the stage at 10:45, and he was followea by a straggling stream of delegates, who slowly found the seats that had bedn assigned them. There was just a suggestion of the work of the decoration in the appearance of the stage. A fow yaras of bunting hung listlassiy from the “drop” above the stage. From the cor- ner of tho stago was suspended a picturo of Congressman Bryan, emballished with the legend, *“Tue people of Nubraska find theiv champion here, not iv Ohio.” Bryan's picture was flanked by portra tho uational candidates, being embellisbed with tho *Puvlic office is a public Btoveuson’s was labuled, aguinst the clusses.” Ouly a Few of Thom Thore, ‘Lhe gallerios presented but a meayer array of spectators, uop one third of the seats being occupied in #pite of the fact thata gaudily uniformed band dissoursed lustily in front of the hall for an hour or mors before the convention. At 11 o'clock sharp Charles chairman of the stato central com- mittee, rapped - for order and re- quested the secretary to read the call. Ogden then announced that the state central committee had decided to vecommend the names of Matt Gering of Cass county as temporary chnirman and A, T. Gatowood ot Dawson county for temporary secretary. They were elected without dissent. Iu order to expedile business five tempor- ary assistent secretaries were selected as foilows: H. S.

Tho rocent national democratic convention at Chicago bad already done that, The speaker then alluded to Governor Boyd's election and inauguration, and to the work aocompli-hed during his ‘sdministra- tion, withoul once meutioning that distinguished individual’s namo.

Graeotully Acknowledged t ‘Laking ‘the platform, Mr. Morton began one of those happy speeches, ombellished with graceful seutonces and well rounded periods for which he has loog been noted. In tho courso of his remarks he dencunced the ropublican party for its routennoss and cor- ruption and asserted that in the presout campaign the democrats wero confronted by @ new party that bad sprung out of the loins —out of the corraption of the republican party—-very much in the maonerin which tha mushroom epriugs from the beap in the rear of the farmer's barn, and about as quickly. The svonker soverely criticized Genoral Van Wyck's position in the present cam- paign and then said that Crounse adhered to the heterodox principles of the republican party with tho sumo tenacity that e had clung to the oflices. He then proceeded to & brief discussion of the tariff ques- tion aud assorted that the govern- menc of the United States bad no constitutional right to tux the wany to enrich the few.
