ed a demonstration calculated to
stampede the convention, and when
the twentieth bailott was called for the
noise was so great that the tellers
could scarcely be heard. Before it
had proceeded Ed. Dunn, chairman of
the Oklahoma county delegation,
mounted the stage and moved that the

responded with a terrific roar, and the
chairman declared the motion carried.
And thus Matfhews was nominated.
