broad enough, and that tho call was swoon
ing enough to admit all who aro friendly

The gaunt and gothic Turner fearod too
broad u basi. for the reason that la
doctors and otbors will form Industrial
organizations and swarm our meetings.
Our limit! aro not too narrow for our
safoty.
A scattoring dabato showing much in

Kicks, Mchty, Hooten and olhors. Mr.
Mchty's speech was especially sensible
and tomporate. Ha claimed that tho cities,
with their laboring classes, aro entitled
to representation and to thoir ihuro In
politic!.
Messrs. Fitrpatrick of McLean, Mc
Keighan, and otbttrs debated tho tame
quostion. The latter spoke of Livingston
county, civing it as tbo sontlmunt ol the

ple. Mr. Suuinor, of ICnox, movod that tho
ontlro matter, with its compllcatlans, be

This motion was tabled.
The previous question was movod by
Mr. llltt, and carriod, and the question
recurred on Mr. Oillom's arnmdment,
civing a broad basis of representation.
This was lost.
Dr. Hooton's amendment, giving one
delogatu.from each coutny, and one for
every COO membors of organizations, as
already statod, was then put. A division
of tho houso was called for, nnd Ibis also
was loll. Tho preamble and resolution
of Mr. lloono, of Jo Davioss county, was
voted upon and carried, giving a broad
basis of representation, whereupon Sec
retary Smith uttered :
"VOL HAVE CUT TUB TUKOAT 01" YOIIK

P.-of. Turner, of Jacksonville, offered'
the following :
lt-oled, That we repudiate the lal.-c
principle Involved iu the caiicu- atemol
the old political parties. We deny that ma
jorities have any moral or political right to

Wo will send out from our conventions

and tho b'ow fell with crushing weight
on tho essayist of Jacksonville.

cities and towns, delegations may be al
lowod in conventions from industrial or

HINTS TO HOUSEMEN.
If your horse is in the habit of Licking,
use a low dash board, and your hone will
soon get ovor it.
Koep your horsofal; don't allow any
ono to gel a lien on him.
When your horse refuses to tako up an
oat, consider him as having (ailed.
To make your horis very fust, tio tbctn
with two halters
N'evor food horse cbeUnuti to chottnut
horses nor horto sot ret to sorrel horses,
but you can give cream to a cream borso
If you like, and the horse like it. It is
not necossary to uso a pitchfork lo pitch
hay to a cream horso, however.
It may answer to stirrup your (addle,
but don't stirrup your horso at least u
stirring horse In "
L'o'ok 'carefully aftor tbo bits ol your
horse, or you may soon bo looking after
tho bits of your wagon.
If you have the propor address you
may receive a couple of linos from a horse,
but on no account "drop a lino."
Uowover you may lu attached to your
horse, you must be sure that your horse is
woll attached lo your carriage.
If a horso Is rocommended to you ns
boing a horse of good carriage, don't in
fer that he it a good carriaeo horse.
When you toll a horse to "get up," look
well at his "gel up." Some horses got up
within the buggy but, like sorrow, "loavn
thoir traces there."
A. bone is something liko a public of
ficer, when ha is installed, in this, that ho
"feels his oats" directly if there aro any
oats in tho stall. Whatovor stall you uso
for your horsos In the itablo, you should
always use a head-stall when you drive
mm. An unonmea norte is very mucn
liko an unbridled tonituo.
Hearing colts is often very profitable,
especially those that rear up iu tho roar
and execute flank movements on tho dash
board with shoe-fly accompaniments.
Tbey "foot up" a bill for repairing too
rapidly.
Harnossing a horso resembles getting
married, in this that tbo kridlo conies
first, but you don't feel tho bildo'll rain,
till you get Into tho harness and feel tho
chech. Blind bridles aro moil common
in both cases and poor things iu olthcr.
You may make a horso laugh by tick
ling your hone under the ribs, but It will
always ba in a crowd of donkeys.
When you go to church you ought to
shod teari of ropentance for yourself, If
you don't havo any shed for your liorto.
