THE county convention yesterday
started out somewhat colby on ac-
count OF the chairman. In the after
moon it progressed in warmth. In the
evening it was red hot. 1t was most
srccessful affair. Good speeches were
delivered by some of the best Demo
Gratis in the city. The most harmoni-
o,,s feeling was evident. ]. L. Rawlins
and, Moses Thatcher made almost
clean sweep on the legislative ticket,
retting the entire senate delegation
and at least two-thirds of the house.
Women would undoubtedly have

not the adverse decision Of the supreme
court been handed down before the
nominations were made.
The fight over the instruction of the
delegates to work for the nomination Of
T, zawlins ana Moses Thatcher was
brought on by the action of the Weber

They explained that the action was
taken while they were unaware OF
what the resolution meant and they
are not in sympathy with it. Judge
cFaginnis is said to have declared that
q majority Of the delegation will dis
obey the instructions They were very
anxious that the action should receive
condemnation at the hands of our con-
vention in order that they might have
good grounds for breaking away.
The theatre was nicely decorated for
the occasion, with flags and bunting.

FURNISHED by Held's band.
Durjng the whole day the Democrats
were il the best of feeling. The deei-
sion<of the supreme court, while pro-
voking regret that the women cannot
vote this year, did not decrease the
confidence Of the Democrats that this
IS their year in Utah, and that they
will be victorious in November.
