REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
1T AEErS IN thu CAPITAL CITY
AND MAPS OUT ITS WORK.


ldahs-Shesp Yields 10 Pressurv asl
Agrees 10 Aeeept 9svrrssraAlp- BAL.
aace Of The Slate - Arrasged.
srsclAL 10 ruE wooD Rrra rnss:
Boise CRY, Idaho, August 20th.-
The Convention which convened here
to-day 10 the largest ever held il.
Idaho.
It meets Eve hours ahead Of time
on account of The anxiety Of . ma.
jority Of the delegates to leave 70,
home Feiday night.
The feeling of tho delegates i,
largely in favor cf Shoup and Dubois
1t being impractic.ble to agree on
. satisfactory candidate for Governor
Shoup finally yielded to the press, re-
and accepted the nomination.
This greatly simpl;6ed matters, and
renders it easy to complete the bal.
ance of the ticket.
The following is the slate:
Hyndman is to nominate Sam.
Weller, for chairman.
Representstive-Swett.
Lieutenant Governor-N. B. vii.
ley, OF Idaho county.
Secretary-Curtis, or A. J. Pink.
ham.
Auditor-No cand idats.
Attorney General - Roberts and
John Gray.
Superintendent of Public Instruc-
tion-Dsniels and Baker.
Treasurer-.Frank Coffin.
Judge Supreme Court - Morgan,
Houston aud Moody.
District Judge-McGowan and Sui.
livau.
DISTRICT Attor"ey-Bruner. Solid.
The following is guess:
Secretary Curtis.
Attorney General Roberts.
Superintendent-Bsksr.
District Judge-MoGowan.
Judge Beatty was first offered tho
Governorship, then Supreme Judge.
Declined both.
Bu'khart was mentioned for Cover
nor. Also Sullivan for Attorney.
General; but later declined.
For District Judge the vote seems
to stsnd-l0 for Sullivan, IL for Mo
Gowan. Frank Taylor, who was for
Sullivan, having given his word to
nominate MCGOWAN and vote for
him, the FIRST ballot changed Sullivan'a
streng.h from II to 10.
Had Persons and Lennon bee
here, one could have had either Gov.
ernor or Lieutenant. Governor, and
the other Secretary.
Boasts are made that Clagget can
absolutely control six votes Of Sho.
shone county in the Legislature.
Pride says he will carry six of the
votes Of Ada county in the Legislature
against Dubois.
As the Republicans expect to carry
only 80 out of 50 members of the
Legislature, IL votes might put CIag
get or Mcconnell in . position e
dictate one, If not two, Senators.
Anti. Duboisites will not 60 into
Legislative caucus unless they are sure
to carry it.
