VICTORIOUS FAUST.
He Organizes His Convention Into an
Association.
And Is Elected President of the Body


they had achieved a great victory; that
the members of the Association had
fiocked over to their banners, seeking
forgiveness for their past transgressions.
Mr.. Woolley, of the convention, moved
that the organization of Territorial As
ISOLATION be proceeded with, which fired
Mr.. lie Grande Young's soul with indig-
nation. He was a member of the Horse
and Cattle Growers Association, terri
torial organization, regularly formed, and
he objected to the mode of proceeding
that ignored the eXistance of that Asso-
citation
Chairman Hatch was. compelled to
leave at this point, and Mr.. Jennings
spoke with some fervor. The members
Of the Association, he said, had not come
there to be insulted, and if the existance
of their organization was ignored, they
would withdraw. Mr. Jennings grew
rather excited during some portions of
/ his speech and waved and shook his
/ cane before the audience in very inn
/ pressive manner.
/ Doctor Faust took exceptions to Mr..
/ Jennings remarks, and declared his in
/ tentiOn to withdraw from the convention.
He did not propose to be insulted, either.
and he wasn't hankering after official
distinction. He would pay for the Opera
House rent, and pay for the band, and he
wished the convention all possible sue
cess, but he would no longer take part
in its deliberations
Mr. Faust then commenced a search
for his hat, but before he could find it.
motion requesting him to remain was
unanimously passed. and he concluded
to reconsider his determination to with
draw; on the whole, he thought he
wouldn't withdraw.
Mr. Rydalch arose at this iuncture and
expressed his firm conviction that
little misunderstanding" seemed to
exist among the members-an opinion
that two days of wrangling seemed to
justify. Mr.. Rydalch stated that he and
many other cattle men had come here
blindfolded, and were ignorant of the fact
that a difficulty existed between DIR.
Faust and Mr.. Jennings Many mem
bers had gone home in disgust, and he
thought they had been imposed on.
which statement brought Mr.. Faust to
his feet again, and thus the performance
went on.
a vote on Mr. Woolleys motion to or
ganize an Association was finally secured
and the motion carried.
Mr.. Jennings was then elected presi-
dent of all the combined and consolidated
cattle associations, and an adjournment
to the City Hall at Z 80 was taken.
AT the evening session nothing what
ever was done except the reading of the
bylaws OF the Territorial Association, |
some of which were strongly objected to. /
The Convention then adjourned to
meet at the Opera House this morning at
10 o'clock, and the Association to meet
at the City Hall this afternoon at .
o'clock.
