Nominations.
Nominations were then in order and
Joseph NJ. Cohen took the floor.
Mr.. Cohen said he agreed with the
opening remarks of the chair. A play
was enacted here a few days ago en-
titled Glow to Nominate a Poor Judi
cial Ticket" 1t was indeed a sorry
spectacle to see $50 men of Salt Lake
bow down to the % from Summit and
ask to be taken in. Ths result shows
they were taken In. That illustrious
example should not be followed. He
would not invoke Lowell, Blaine or
Inns. He considered it an honor to be
able to name Ogden Hiles.
This brought down the house. App
plause and cheering broke out and
was kept up for a long time.
LIE Grand Young Named.
F. z. Barker said his man needed
only mention. He needs no eulogy.
He has long been known to the people
here. He is known TO all people here
and all men call him friend. The peo-
pie have honored him in many
ways. He has assisted in many
ways, helped to make the laws of
the territory and has been before the
courts for thirty years constituting
them. He is honest. He will get votes
and influence and will be one of our
next judges. He named LIE Grand
Young.
There was another strong burst of
applause and cheering, which kept up
for some time
Walter Murphy Presented.
Judge c. c. Dey said the labors of
the convention. are of vast Importance
For the first time in the history of
Utah the people will elect judges who
shall preside over courts of unlimited
jurisdiction. There should be noeeper-
sonal enmities or friendships in the
convention. He had always thought
the Judiciary was sacred. He believed
the people of this district are too
thoughtful and honest not to make
merit the test. He would name a man
who needed no commentator, one
woh has held position ably, honestly
and well. In the hands of such a
man the scales of justice will be held
evenly. He named Walter Murphy.
Murphy had friends in the house
and they gave him a good round Of
applause.
Judge Cherry in the Race.
A B. Sawyer said that if twenty
three years of active professional life
will commend a man, he had a good
man to present. His man had never
sought an office, but had always work
ed in the ranks. He has not been q
busting politician. He presented the
name of Judge A. N Cherry.
From the First precinct and other
delegations there came applause.
Judge McNauy.
Judge Henderson said his candidate |
had the necessary qualifications and as !
probate judge he has proved to pos
sess ability, integrity and honesty. AS |

hearty applause.
