CONVENTION
HAS FINISHED.
Continued from Page -

Enrolling Clerk Smith then proceeded
to bind the engrossed copy OF the con-
stitution, and during the wait, Coray
moved a vote of thanks to the presi-
dent and officers. President Smith
put the motion and it was carried
with only a few voices. The delegates
did not know what was up. Murdoch,
of Beaver moved a vote Of SYM
pathy to the delegates. This was car
ried.
Then came the question of how TO
sign. Richards moved that delegates
sign their first names in full, but
President Smith suggested it would
be better TO sign names in full. At
1910, the roll was started and John
Henry Smith signed as president.
Then came the following members in
their order:

The Constitution Adopted.
At precisely 1.At Williams signed the
document and Secretary Christensen
reported the roll call. President Smith
amid applause, then declared the con-
stitution adopted
During the signing there were many
amusing incidents. Many of the dele
gates had bought pens with which 10
sign their names and those were
treasured up to be given to succeeding
generations as heir looms. Some mem
bers wholly disregarded the order OF
the convention that they should sign
their names in full and used only their
ordinary signatures The hearing of
a number was nervous. They acted
as though they were unable to bear UP
under the excitement of the moment.
Clark. of Tooele. and Murdoch, Of
Beaver. shook SO severely when they
came forward to sign that they were
compelled to defer the action for
time Delegates who had not used
their middle names for years tripped in
spelling. them Some even blushed
when they wrote these hidden cogno-
forgotten his, and afterwards declared
it was the worst signature he had ever
made Karl G. Maeser said that was
the name by which he was known and
1t was good enough.
Where the Money Went.
The committee on accounts and ex-
penses presented the following report.
which was adopted:
We, your committee on accounts ana
expenses, beg leave to make our final
statement showing expenditure Of the
$50. 600 appropriated by Congress

er's notes for the printer will cost as per

we are unable to find what will be the
cost of printing the journal of proceed

matter be left to the committee on COM

Vention to say how many copies shall be
published.
We suggest that the convention might
pass resolution asking e., CONGRESS S for an
