WILD CONFUSION REIGNS. }i | Hon. A. S. Clay Permanent Chairman. - Hon. W. Y. At kinson Nominated. 4 F rom The Daily Press, August 2. The democratic state convention as -1 sembled at the eapitol today. Though j the attendance was as large as the pop • 1 iilist convention in May, it was I noticed that but few farmers weie among the delegates. 'Not a negro was in attendance. The nomination of Mr. Ulay for permanent chairman produced a scene the like of which has rarely disgraced a deliberative body. 1 A bit ter light Is expected on the adop- 1 tionof the platform. 1 By 9 o’clock delegate as well as other persons began to gather about the capi- 1 tol, and to pass into the hall of the I ■ house of representatives. By 11 o’clock the hall was full to 1 .overflowing, (.’.airs were brought in 1 until there was room for no more, and then every one who could get standing I ! room took his place. I ■. h a well as the floor was I packed with people, until not another . one could get. into the hall. Itis estimated that there were about I ‘>oo delegates in attendance. Besides these, almost, every demo ’ cratic politician in the state was pre.s --) ent to pick up what he could, and pre- Ii pare for a future berth. And then, there were the friends of | politicians, brought along to work for their respective lords. 1 'They came from every quarter of the i state, from Tennessee to the ocean and l iorida, and from Alabama to the Sa- I vannah river. k T’he last addition to the democratic ' host came in from Newnan at 10o'clock ' .m the "Atkinson special. ’’ While the crowd was large, yet its composition was not of a very varied character. Prou ssional men made up the con vention. Lawyers, doctors, merchants men of everj’ professional character— were there. True, there were some farmers but they* were not many. There was one noticeable fact.. Not a negro was in the house, as delegate or spectator. Not even a negro in the role of serv ant could be seen when the convention was called to order. Judging from the many private con versations. and the mans llea.’ty hand shakes and fond hugs, every mar. pres ent Ava> after something for himself or for some, friend. They were politicians politicians everywhere, and every man was seri ously in earnest. Ton minutes before 12 o'clock, Mrs. W. Y. Mkinson, wife of Hon. W. Y. Atkinson, democratic nominee for gov ernor, was seen coming down the aisle. 'Phis was a signal for shouts of ap plause, Some i.me cried out: "Three cheers for Mrs- Atkinson,” and they were given with a will. Mi’s. Atkinson took a scat just in front of > the rostrum. Just at t.wo minutes before 12 o'clock. Judge Allen Fort, of Americus, rapped the convention to order. De said the hour had conn for calling the great democratic convention of the state of Georgia, and. without, further words, he announced that nominations . for temporary chairman were in order. : Just as the convention was called to order, some one handed the chairman ’ ! a note asking him to recognize Mr. : ' llenry Kichardson of the Atlanta Jour- This was done and Mr. Richardson ■ nominated Mr. Thus. R. R. Cobb of the : , mnty of Fulton. There was slight. ■ cheering. , Hon Price Gilbert, of Columbus, next • , secured the floor, and nominated E.x --' Governor Boynton, of Spalding. (Loud ’ applause.) Judging from the speeches and the ' earnestness of the speakers, one would have thought the place being fought for I was one of great importance. There were a number of seconds on i>oth sides. The speakers were fre- ■ quently interrupted with shouts and I yells for the different candidates ! Mr. Bryan, of Augusta, and Mr. Brit Miller of Muscogee, made pretty ’ speeches seconding the nomination of Mr. Cobb. Mr. Daniel, of Spalding, seconded the nomination of Colonel Boydton. Then the roll of counties was called, Trom the very beginning Boynton took the lead and held it. When the county ' < f Wilkes was reached the vote stood: i Cobb, 108; Boynton, 233. When Mr. Cobb saw he could not be ’ elected, he arose and addressed the ' chair. His first words were to with - I draw from the race and move the unan imous election of Mr. Boynton. Mr. Cobb is a \ J ery fine speaker, and caught his audience at oner. He made a bril- 1 liant speech in withdrawing, lie was cheered to the echo. His speech was a splendid democratic effort. A commit tee composed of Colonel Bloodworth, of Monroe. Mr. T. R. R. Cobb, of Ful ton, and Mr. Daniel, of Spalding, was appointed to notify Colonel Boynton of his election. Colonel Boynton came in amidst the cheers of the crowd. He thanked the convention for his election as temporary chairman. He said the business of the convention was to nominate the men who were to be the candidates for state house offi ces for the next two years. He said the most important duty was the formation of a platform. That] there must be no quibbling. ‘ This con vention must take no uncertain grounds. | The platform must be plain, and in} meaning, unmistable. Such a platform : as would be for the best interests of j the people of Georgia must be adopted. ‘T warn you now that the party will } hr tried in Oct'-toor. and the people} will !•< : udg- ui:» 1L« said it was 1 »e duty of every per- ' son io put aside every feeling of a per son*.' nature and unite to elect that brilliant young statesman, W. Y. At- | kin son. (Applause.) When Governor Boynton referred to ! , Cleveland, the cheering was deafening, | and lasted for several minutes. Hcisaid that Mr. Cleveland had been honest, wise, patriotic and unflinching i in his fidelity to his party. Be de serves the endorsement of this people. (Wild applause.) He lauded the demo- j cratic platform, upon which the demo crats won in 13'j?. He said that the national platform should be supplemented by such de mands as would be of local benefit. 'That democrats should be patient, and . ere long the pledges of the party ; would be redeemed, lie said every patriotic democrat would forget what had not been done, and do all he. could for the success of the party. Hon. Mark A. Harden and Hon. ■ William A. Harris, of Worth, were elected temporary secretaries. Mr. J. IL Smith was nominated and elected a messenger. Captain Wilson of Richmond county was elected as doorkeeper. Why this was done no one could tell. It is a fact, however, th t several counties did not vote for temporary chairman. Tlie supposition is that some of the i counties were not represented, and ' that the convention did not wish the! public to know it. The culling of the roll for the pnr-I pose of securing the names of dele- 1 gates, and to find what counties were ■ represented, was dispensed with. The chairman announced nomina-} tions for permanent chairman inorder. ■ Colonel Bill Davis, of Bnrl;e, arose and nominated Hon. A. S. Ciay, who., he iaid, would lead the party to a . glorious viebra this fail, and make the i party’s majority 11)0,000 instead of '. ; 70.000 as in ISO?. ” Mr. Waraer Hill and Mr. H. H. Caba niss both seconded the nominati n. pre- • dieting a great victory’ for the party. At this juncture ‘1 r. I rox Bankston, ; . of Catoosa, arose and said that as a 1 rock-ribbed democrat, he desired toask . a question in the name of the people whom lie vepiesented. He said Air. • Clay had been accused of some wrong doing in Fannin em\nty. f Pandemonium 1 eigned at once. ’ Such a s . no has never bet*.l’seen even in a democratic convention. ' l IT WAS A AV 11. I) SCENE. Mr. Bankston could not proceed for i the noise. He stood on his chair and waved his 1 . j hand to stop the hisses of the crowd. ! but he could not be heard any further, ■ ' The uoise was deafening, and it was ' ’ seen al one? that the convention would } n< t hear Mr. Bankston, Mr. Clay arose and tried to be heard, but he could not speak for the noise. He was finally heard to say : "The I ' gentleman from Catoosa must be ' ‘ heard." j Mr. Clay insisted, but the audience ; was wild. Mr. Bankston was trying to speak; Mr. Clay was trying to speak. Hon. 11. 11. Carlton, of Athens, was wildly mad. and continued to raise his voice high , enough to be heard. He stood upon ' . his chair and seemed madly in earnest, ; Above the .great din and confusion i Dr. Carlton, who seemed to be mad to I desperation, was heard to say : ‘‘This gentleman from < atoosa shall: 1 be heard. It is right that lie shall be heard. It is democratic that he shall be heard. If he cannot be heard, then this is no democratic convention.” All this while Mr- Gus i stain ling • ■ Clay’s part, and objecting to anything being said about the Fannin county matter. No one could understand < what he was saying. He. and Dr. Carl- ; ton shook their fists at each other ve hemently. They shouted at the top of their voices, but no one could hear them, and they were so mad, or seemed ; to be. that they hardly knew them selves what they were saying. Finally Dr. Carlton said : “If the gentleman cannot be heard, then 1 say three cheers for the people, and down with ring rule.” and he ■ yelled at the top of his voice : but few persons heard him. however, the noise was so great. For some time, a FREE FOR ALL FIGHT seemed inevitable. It was a disgrace ful scene for even a democratic conven tion. A number of men were standing on their seats and every man in the house seemed to be yelling at the same time. All the while Chairman Boynton was ; striving to get order, and whenever he | 1 could make himself heard, declared that the gentleman from Catoosa was lout of order, and that that was no ! place to settle personal matters. The chairman insisted that neither Mr. : Clay nor Mr. Bankston should be heard. 1 hiring all the noise and confusion ■ some one standing just in front of the I chairman moved to elect lion. A. S. i }<’la‘ permanent chairman, aiid thus I ’ answer the charges which the gentle- } man from Catoosa would bring against him. The chair declared the motion I carried, and appointed throe gentlemen | to escort Mr. Clay to the. chair. ! All of this was heard by only a few ' persons close around the chairman. ■ Mr. Clay made his way to the ros ’ trum. and took the gavel. The house was still in as much con fusion as ever, and all that could be heard or seen was that Mr. Clay had Finally, lie secured sullicient order to be heard, and the would be belligerents . all over the house began to sit down. Mr. Clay insisted that the audience listen to a statement from him. Mr. Clay said he held in his hand an affidavit from the man who is quoted to have sworn that he (Clay> had at tempted to get persons in Fannin, charged with crimes, to vote for Atkin } son by promising that their cases would . •go light with them, which affidavit showed that the suiu man had never had a conversati'm with him (’ lay on such a subject. I’his was received with shouts. When Mr. Clay was asked for the affidavit, he said, 1 will give it to you tomorrow. At this point Mr. Bankston secured the attention of the chair, and said : that he wanted it understood that Mr. ! ( lay was his friend. I did not want} i Mr. Clay elected to till that high place • : until this convention had first stumped ■ ! the charges as lies i did not believe , what is charged, ami I did not want ' the convention to understand that 1 . j t hought so. if Mr. Bankston did not believe the } : charges, he fooled his audience com-1 pletely. It was evident that the hisses ■and expostulations of those aixnind' him, consisting largely’ of the Cobb; I county delegation, had the desired } effect, and Mr. Bankston harmonized, i While it is true that quiet was re-} stored, still there were those present } i who wanted the charges against Mr. j Clay ventilated, and Dr. Carlton was I one of the leaders. j There were those among the dele-j ' gates who declared the whole affair , | the most disgraceful occurrence they had ever seen. It was evident that the convention | doubted Mr. Clay’s ability to clear him- • self of tlie. charges which had been : made, and they were willing and anx-. ions to thrust the honor upon him be- } fore an investigation could be had. } In accepting the election as chairman ; of the convention and as chairman of! I slate democratic executive commit- ■ I tee. Mr. Clay was badly’ rattled. His I speech was a good one, however, but it • aroused no enthusiasm, and fell flat. He said when the principles of thedem- i ocratie party failed to prevail, the • : national government could not stand. : • The success of democratic, principles i was a necessity, and that he wa- ready i to put aside business and personal in terest, and take the democratic reigns } j ami lead the party to a great victory. , lie hoped that in a few days we would I ; hear t hat Kolb in Alabama had beep ; ovc wlielmingly defeated. He aid he differed with the presi-! i dent on some points, But that he re-1 ' cognized in the president a true and , patriotic statesman. Democrats dif-} sered for the reason that they usually | ' think for themselves. He would al-i I ways be fair to every side, and it} i should be the will and wish of every ! one present to do only that which was i best for the party. Summed up, Mr. ! Clay’s speech consisted of praise of the . state democracy in the past, and glow-1 i ing predictions for national democracy’ in the future. The present was ignored. t I Messrs. Harris and Hardin were man en t so ere tar i e s . tion, without discussion and w’thout being read. The committee was to be composed of two from each district, and four at large. Mr. ( lay took about two minutes to prepare the committee, lie then said that the. selection of the committee was a serious matter, and that he had used as much discretion as was possible un der the circumstances. The truth is the whole matter was cut and dried. Jt was all a pretty trick, too. The committee was evidently made up of ad ministration ists. Mr. Cabaniss, of the Journal, was on from the Fifth district, and the Constitution was not in it. The convention will evidently be run by the side that can the more effectually trick. Without doubt the platform which is submitted to the convention will be made in the interest of Mr. Cleveland’s ideas. EVENING SESSION’. When the convention met at 3 o’clock, ! j Hon. Hewlett N. Hall nominated Hon. = W. Y. Atkinson for the democratic nominee for governor of the State of Georgia. Mr. Hall made a pretty speech which was loudly applauded. Mr. Jim Blount of Macon seconded the nomination. His speech was full of glittering gen- I eralities, but was well received. ! ><: ge;:tL. ::u-n s. eondtd thenom- ! ination. among whom were Mr. Har dick, of Washington county, and Mr. Persons, of Talbot. Mr. Atkinson was given the nomina tion by a unanimous vote, and then there was wild cheering and shouting At 4 o’clock, as The Press goes to press, Mr. Atkinson is being escorted into the hall amidst great applause. The great fight in the convention will be over the platform. An attempt will be made to endorse the president, and it may go through, but there is much doubt about it.
