Tho national committee of the Pop
ulist party met in St. Louis Tuesday
?i> per foci tho temporary organization
of tho convention. Chairman Tauhc -
neck presided ami aboit f>0 members
were present. Thin commilteo in or
KOjyzod upon a radically different
baeis^from that of tho old parties.
Kaoh State ami Territory in entitled t ? ?
three inornbers ami out of the entire
momborship of l."?.'l a central executive
? commit tee of nine it* chosen to manage
the campaigns. The committee com
prises two female members Mm. Anna
D. Diggs, of the District of Colum
bia, who wan present ami M,h. A. O.
1 1 ask i us, fxoin AikausatK There are
no persona in ollieial afo on the com
nil t tee except .Senator Marion Bailor,
of North Carolina, who carries a
proxy..
There were but two coiitcMs of im
portance - -tlioso from Colorado and
Illinois, Tho former involved the en
tiro State delegation. The latter tho
'27 delegates ftom Cook county
(Chicago.) The Colorado contestants
wore headed by ox-Governor Waito,
but he having declared in favor of
.Bryan's nomination, his collertgucB de
posed hi m for another leader.
On thu matter of temporary chair
man, two candidates are mentioned,
General Jus. it Weaver, of Iowa, who
represented tho Bryan and Sewall cle
ment, and Senator Marion Butler, of
North Carolina, who was opposed to
t ho< endorsement of thu Domocratio
ticket.
A fter the matter of membership of the
committee ituelf had been determined,
the committee proceeded to consider
applications by a number of tho States
for increased representation in tho con
vention. 1 he basis upon which this in
lliado by the national committee in its
call, is one delegate for each member
of Congress from the Statu and an addi
tional delegate for each 2,000 votes
east at the proceeding general election.
In- making up the table of
delegates for this convention,
the national committee wan compelled
to net upon data contained in the
various political almanacs, and in
tho case of a number of States
this information proved to be inaccu
rate. Tho committeemen from each
Southern State demonstrated by certi
fied copies of the tabulation of votes in
his State that tho Populists wore en
titled to an increase in tho number of
delegates of from 'one to five, tho lat
ter being allowed the State of Texas.
Tho several Territories were allowed
nix delegates instead of four, making
their representation equal to that of
the Territories iu the Democratic and
Bcpubliean conventions. Oklahoma
was given the same right of represen
tation as tho States; that is, ono dele
gate for its delegate iu Congress and
one for each 12,000 votes, which made
its total representation nine.
Senator Butler's nomination was
ficcouded by Cyclone Davis, of Texas,
by a delegate from Alabama and by
Mr, X'', G. Brown, #of Massachusetts,
and he was selected temporary chair
man by acclamation.
?V For temporary necretariea, tho
names of W. D. Vincent, of Kansas,
editor of "Sound Money," and John
W. Hayes, secretary of tho executive
committee, Knights of Labor, were
suggested and accepted.
v Mr. S. I.). Walton, of Gcorgio, tho
only colored member of tho committee,
presented for use at tho convention a
gavel composed of 17 different.. kinds
of wood. Sixteen of these were from
tho South and Tfeat and ono from tho
Kast.
1 ho committee then voted to proceed
to thcjJoction of temporary chairman
and temporary scoTctary. The cxpoc- |
tation that this would afford a test of !
tho Bryan ami anti-Bryan strength in
tho convention was not realized, for tho
name of General .Tames B. Weaver, of,
Iowa, who hud been spoken of as the
Bryan candidate for the. phico, was not
mentioned. Mr. Guthrio. of North
Carolina, tho prolaiblo Populist candi
dato for Governor of that State, pre
sented tho nainn of Marion Butler,, of
North Carolina, claiming that tho man
tle of liConidas Polk had fidlen upon
Um and the honor Nx*U?ht was duo to
North Carolina, hccause&hc had been
the first to break the solid South.
Tho Iteform Press Association, com
posed of editors of Populist and fieo
silver newspapers, met in tho head
- quarters of tho Texas Populists in tho
afternoon. A committee whoso mom
bora were J. M. Mallott, of 'l'oxas; A.
P. Tugwoll, Washington ; A. C. Brown,

delegations fieclV Muted their inten
sion to holt if the Chicago nomineos
were endorsed. They privately Hpoko
of the nbsoluto necessity of maintain
ing tlio People's party organization in
tact in their respective Stuton so as to
control tho Stuto oll'ieos. One of the
most outspoken of th<MO Southern re
calcitrants said ho eon hi not go home
to his State if he carried with him an
omloiKOincnt of tlio Deuioorutio ticket
by the Populist convention. He
frankly admitted that- if ho and those
who wore acting with him could
not prevent the endorsement
of Bryan, their irrevocable pur
pose wiei to kill oft* So'*fvli and
to give placo to a Southern , Populist
ami thus to so confuse the eloctoral
I voters for N ice President as to throw
j the tlection into tio United States
j 1 lonsb where they would have muttii'H
their own way.
With all these diflieulties ahead the
People's party arrived very slowly.
Tlio committee on credentials, nppa
I rcnlly for tho purpose of gaining time,
|.>rotraeted its deliberations over tlio
niter ly unimportant ountest eases, none
of which could ? fleet results. At 2:10
the convention took a recesu until 8
; p. m., and when it re- assembled some
one had failed to make tlio necessary
arrangements for turning on the eloe
; trie lights'. U^der such circumstances
the transiiction of businesH was impos
sible. At S:5;{ o'clock tlio convention
adjourned until Thursday at 10 o'clock,
at which hour tlio Silver Convention
also rc-asseinbled.
Governor Stone, of Missouri, delivered tlio
address of weleomo.
Ilt'l l.KU's BVKIU'H.
Chairman Tanboneek introduced as tem
porary chairman of t ho convention Senator
Marion 1>u(l?'r, of North (Carolina, who was
received with throe cheers, which be charac
terized as "a cyclone of patriotism." All his
tory taught, ho pai l, ami all history Showed
that thoro always o.jmo crises in tlio affairs of
men, ( y whi-'h hunlupity was raised to a
higher level accordingly as the men on whose
shoulders the responsibility jestoil woro ahlo
to meet the crises with wisdom and | atriot
i ism, (cheers), and to solve it to tlio better
ment of humanity. Two principal parties,
ho said, had hold national conven
tions this venr, had adopted platforms and
had put forward their leaders, and now an
other great political party, young but a
growing giant in strength, liftd assembled to
speak to the Auverjenn people in this critical
and impoftanl hoii?._ (Cheers.) Tho Popu
lists were 'bore bccauso thoro was need of
thorn to bo iiere. Tho parties that bad had
charge of Die government since tho war had
succeeded iu bringing the nation to the vergo
of bankruptcy and ruin, mid bad ne
cessitated the existence of the Popu
list organization. Tho two parties had
vied with each other in ??stradling"
and now "siraddiing" was a thing of tho
?pint. 1 In wont on to speak of thy transpor
tation question as standing side by side with
the nWncy question, and declared that both
these groat questions would have to be solved
before I ho country got back to prosperity.
The Ktiindrtrd Oil trust, ho declared, would
not ft to.laj if it were not for Its co-part
nership with thf. transportation companies.
i; tho People's parly were to go out of
existence tomorrow the next Democratic Na
tions.! Convention would report a platform
upon which llryan could not stand. (Cheers.)
The People's party , had raised an issue so
universal, so great, so miportant, that it had
split both tho old parties in two. (Daughter
and applause.]
Now, this convention had met to save
that issue or to allow if to go down in death.
Ho had faith that this convention would not
turn itself into a Democratic annex (loud
cheers,) or into a licimbljcau annex (more
eiioors) but would ilnd a way between thorn
that was true and right. What, Senator
Duller asked, should' this convention (b? V
and be was answered by oneof the California
delegates, Mr. Alfred Dsggnd, "Nominate a
straight Populist candidate oil a Populist
platform without reference to what tho
Democratic convention has done."
"While this party lives," Senator Dutlcr
exclaimed, "and God grant that it shall never
die; because it will be ever needed so long as
human liberty is threatened. It must bo true
to the mission it was born to accomplish."
(Cheers.)

would have preferred to act as a simple
delegate, but it. had been thought
proper by a portion of tho delegates to
nominate him as permanent president
and he had consented (in Del haps an
evil hour) that his name might l>e used,
lie had read in a St. Jjouis paper (a
paper supposed to bo in the McKinley
gold standard interest) that tho Popu

but if tho editor of that paper had wit

KOIIHTII J>AY.
Friday tho Populist Convention was

Notwithstanding the loceipt of ono
or more telegrams from Mr. W. ?!,
Uryan, declining to permit tho use of
his ^anie on tlio Populist ticket unless
Mr. Aathur Sewt II, his associate on tho
Chicago ticket, was also endorsed, Mr.
Bryan was put in formal nomination as
originally contemplated by (leneral
Weaver, of Iowa, and was seconded by
0110 or moro spokcamen from every
State and Territory with about ten ex
ceptions and on a ballot received 1, 012
votes against M'J 1 for C?h Norton, of
Chicago, who at tho last moment wan
selected as tho candidate of tho unre
constructed Twiddle, of tho Bond elo-*
me id.. It was the intention of this fac
tion to place E. V. Debs in nomination
aud thiiHto fort^o tho labor issue. to tho
jront, but Mr. Doha telegraphed de
clining to servo and his telegram was
rcspectcd. Strenuous efforts worn
mado without avail by Ignatius Don
nelly and others to obtain Hoine'kind
of an assurance that Mr. Bryan would
acce]>t the nomination and stand upon
the platform. Tho permanent chair
man, Senator Allen, of Nebraska, ad
mitted that he had received somo kind
of a telegram from Mr. Bryan, but ho
said lie had paid no attention to it.
Before 'hdjourning, th^oconvention
adopted a resolution clothing tho 1111- |
tional committeo with pienar}' powi / j
to do anything and everything whicij
the convention ltselT might havo dono
if in HCHHion. This, of course, would
authorize it to take down the naniea of
Mr. Bryan or Mr. Watson or both if
neceasary and to construct an entirely
new ticket. The national committeo 1
was enlarged so as to consist of three
members from each State ami Ter
ritory. But naturally tho power
conferred upon thin cumbrous 1
bod}' wi'l eventually bo lodged
in an executive committeo of moro
manageable size. A noticablo featuro
of tho last moments of tho convention,
was the fact that though the result of
the ballot for President was announced,
it was iiot followed by any declaration
oif,?tho part of tho chair that Bryan
had been duly chosen tho candidate of
tho Peoplo's party for President of tho
United States.
, Tho convontion separated in bad hu
mor, many of tho delegates openly de
nouncing tho tiokot as a "theatrical
oirc." It liofreva* met tho unqualified
approval of Jprs. lioase, of Kansup,
(whoso namo, usually printed "Mary
