NOMINATING SPEECHES.
Bior of Clarke, In brief speech nom-
mated X. o. Dunbar of Klicitat. He
declared II unnecessary to go into the
details Of Dunbars life. He was a work
er who had grown up among us and for
two years, in sunshine and storm, had
been found fighting for the republican
the statute book of the territory and the
constitution which is now before us for
ratification. Washington will i'll time
be y bright particular star in the con-
stellation of states, and there Is no bet
ter man to represent her for the first
time than X. o. Dunbar.
Clark of Jefferson, when that county
was called, said that no office that this
convention would nominate IA candidate
for is more important than that OF rep
rcscntaiive to congress, and with pleas
ure lie wished to nominate man well
known to the delegates, well qualified,
of broad and liberal mind, of expert
ence In the public affairs for fifteen
years In Washington territory, and
weighed in the balances for all that
time as q true and sound republican
and not found wanting, rs man of
character, honorable standing, accepted
by all those voters who ask that chnrac-
ter shall be u prominent factor In u can
didnte- Such mnn was Hon. Allen
Weir Of jefferson county, ana lac nomi-
mated him. promising, If nominated, he
would be elected and when elected would
serve his constituency honestly and sat
isfactorily.
WHEN SPOKANE WAS CALLED
p. II. Winston said: When we face an
occasion like this ii makes the blood of
patriotism tingle. Tho world cannot
produce u counterpart of this glorious
dny. twenty-five years ago new dec
claration Of independence was formu-
lated which declared that slavery should
never again dominate this country, and
we are enjoying the fruitage of that dec
laration. Who ever represents
THIS GREAT STATE
of Washington will occupy q position
second to no other IN that history. Upon
what principle, then, shall we proceed
in making this nomination. Shull it be
from the center of the mining milling,
agriculture, railroads and business?
Then Spokane Is that center. Ii II be
from tile center of population, then Spo.
kane county has 3O,OOO inhabitants and
taxable property of SlG,OC0,OoO. If II bc
from center of rcpublicanism, then
Spokane has 1000 republican majority at
its best. If II be oil the
ground of character, then Spokane has
the son of an American soldier of three
wars, representative In three con-
crosses, and who finally fell asleep in
foreign country as an uinbass ador from
the United States, aud that son had
come among us, and never failed in his
republicanism, and last year took the
banner of his county and went all over
his territory contributing nobly to that
victory which we won. You will nomi.
nate him and he will elect himself. |
