| committee be not adopted, and that instead
sixteen delegates be elected by direct vote
of those present The fairest way was to

allow every Republican present to vote for
sixteen. He did this in the interest of the
Republican party. He believed the names
presented had been previously put up and

would be the fsirest, but how would it be
if certain party came TO the meeting with
printed tickets, as he had seen done in the
