This conference will not undertake to make any nomination, but an etlort will be made to get things into such u shape that it will be an easy matter to take ac tion in that regard next year. This afternoon was devoteJ chiefly to conferences of various state delegations, they being for the most part harmonious . their deliberations. The Iowa delegation among other tilings adopted a resolution urging the nomination of a full independent ticket next June, and telegraphed its decision to tho prominent men of the state in sympathy with tbe movement.

A two mill tax ould yield nearly 8200,000, and if only half of this were to bo devoted the World’! Fair, Florida could do herself credit with this sum.
