First District Legislative Convention.

The Legislative Convention for the
first district of Van Buren, county was
called To order at Lawrence, on Friday
of last week, by Chairman Woodman,
of the committee. On motion, &. &.
Phillips, of Hartford, was elected chair
man and N. |. Thompson, of Keller,
secretary. After the appointment of a
committee on credentials, consisting OF
the chairmeu of the several delegations,
DR.. &. Nj. Odell spoke feelingly of his
former connection with the Greenback
party its mission as an educator of the
people upon the question of national Ii
nances, and expressed the belief that
the best interests of the country de-
mand now the success of the Republican
party and pledged his influence To that
end. Judge Heckert made a stirring
speech which was received with unmis-
taxable evidences of approval by the
convention. The preliminary work
having been completed, Jason Wood
man took the floor and in most happy
and forceful speech presented the name
of G.. l.. Eaton, giving reasons, good
and sufficient, why that gentleman
should be placed in nomination by the
Republican party as its candidate for
the state legislature. He drew atten-
ton To the fact that Mr.. Eaton's vote at
the last session had been uniformly
and invariably with the agricultural in
terests of his district and state, and un-
hesitatingly INDUCED the prediction
that there would be no deviation there
from should he he returned. The nom
nation was made unanimous bya rising
vote. Judge Heckert and &. w. Mer-
riman were appointed a committee to
present the nominee To the convention.
MIR. Eaton thanked the delegates for
the high honor conferred, pledged his
best efforts To the entire constituency
and exhorted that there be no hesitancy
on the part of the people in making
known their wishes in matters of legis-
lation, saying that he would be only too
glad when thus informed to reflect this
sentiment by word and vote.
