ALL ARR WINNERS
REPUBLICANS HOLD AN EN-
THUsIAsTIo CONVENTION.
READY FOR THE VICTORY,
The Race for Places on the Ticket a
Lively one-Delegates Represent
All Sections Of the county-sensi-
BILE and Stirring Resolutions
Adopted--convention Notes.

The Republicans began the campaign
OF 1898 Saturday at the court
house with one Of the most enthus-
iastic conventions on record. The
party has gone into the fight to win
and unless all signs are wrong and the
world upside down there will be a
clean sweep on November from top
to bottom for the ticket nominated.
The primaries and the convention
have been conducted with that end In
view. Whatever differences may have
been felt In the rivalry for places on
what is admitted TO be the winning
ticket all these will be sunk in the
effort TO carry the whole ticket through
to victory In November. Such was the
feeling among the delegates this after
noon and the REFLECTOR which has
worked for the best interests of the
party, regardless Of personal wishes,
and takes pleasure In putting up the
ticket at its mast head today, believes
that victory is already assured.

from the various precincts Of the
