Los LUNAs, N. NJ Oct. 10, '92.-The Re-
! publicans of Valencia county held their
convention to-day and selected ticket
that will not only be elected but will fur
nish Republican majority such as has
never been realized in Valencia county
before. Nearly every precinct was rep
resented and the court house was crowd
ed, the delegates scarcely being able to
procure seats. Nominations were made
viva voce, and although there were many
spirited addresses made, the harmony of
the convention exceeded all expectations
Petty differences which q month ago
threatened dissatisfaction have entirely
disappeared, and the Republican voters
have but one object in view-the success
of the county ticket and an overwhelming
majority for Thomas B. Catron, the men
ton of whose name at different intervals
during the convention created the great
est enthusiasm.
The permanent officers of the conyen-
ton were Hon. Roman A. Baca, presidents
Gregorlo n. Otero, vice president; W. T.
Lampo and Eduardo T. Otero, secretaries,
and Mariana T. Sena and Adelaide C. de
Baca interpreters.
Following is the ticket:
