AZ the republican state convention We'd
nesday the republicans did their work wise
ly and WELL They placed ticket in the
field that has no weak spots in it. Every
man is runner. AS Webfoot sets the pace
for the fall elections in the East the conven-
tion is to be congratulated for having nom-
mated ticket, every man of which will be
a winner by a large majority. Judge Lords
nomination was the first one and was made
by A. N. Gilbert of Salem and seconded by
Henry McGinn. C. W. Fulton and J. L.
Apperson were also nominated for COVER
nor and on the second ballot Lord was sue
cessful. After the result was announced
there were cries for Fulton who came for
ward and spoke kriefy in eulogy Of Judge
Lord and the republican party. He claimed
to not lie sore in the least over his defeat
and thanked his friends who had supported
him. The slate declared for new deal and
as result no present or former office holder
stood a ghost of show. Metschan was
unanimously accorded a second term as due
him. The name of E B. McEroy had been
swept off the slate and was not announced
for secretary of state, his friends having
advised him to try for school superintend-
cut This left Kincaid ano Hirsch practi-
cally alone in the race as Applegate had lit
tie strength, and as SHlem already had the
governor, kincaid was chosen ON the third
ballot Judge Carey of Portland and G. E.
Wulverton of Albany were placed in noni.
nation for supreme judge resulting in favor
of the latter on the first baRot. For at
torney general G. M. Iieman and a. F.
Sears of MultDomah and F. P. Mays of
Wasco were nominated, the second ballot
being favorable to liloman. By the time
the convention reached superintendent Of
public Instructions the new deal idea had
gained such following that it seemed use
less to present the name Of any bat new
man and accordingly Mr.. McEiroy's name
was not mentioned G. M Irwin of Union,
Frank Rigler Of Mnlthomah, ]. IT. Stanly
of Washington and H. S. Strange of Clacka-
mas were placed in nominotinn resulting on
the second ballot IN fovor of Irwin.
Three ballots were had for state printer,
when an adjournment WAS had until morn
inr. On the fourth and last heat Dunniway
and Leeds were the only starters; Leeds re-
caived 1tS and Dunniway ll9.
In the fight for district attorney our dele
CATION held ont manful!y for w. f. Yates,
but were defeated by combination made
by the Lane and Douglas delegations, in fa-
vor of Kincaid for secretary Of state and
Brown for district attorney. Of the Al
votes in the district Yates received IS, be.
ing the entire support of Lincoli, Coos,
Curry and Benton.
