| that the ladies were on the right track,
especially the Republican ladies. She
had lived in Wyoming and knew from
experience that the right of women to
| vote was q privilege which was never
abused.
Mrs. Hunter, who helped to organize
the Republican party fifty years ago,
made few remarks on the subject of
purity IN politics, in other words "a.
clean campaign" Mrs. Hunter insist
ed that the best people should be Sc
lected to Office and not to vote for any
one who was not above reproach. To
pursue this plan would cause most OF
the ladies to bolt the Republican ticket.

The committee on credentials present.
ed q report which was accepted and
adopted. There was a rider on the re-
port which specified that the delega-
lions from the several precincts
be allowed to cast the full vote
of the delegation, but that proxies pe
not admitted This was to shut out all
! those who had been opposed to the
combine but had managed to capture
a few proxies.
An attempt was made to extend an
olive branch to the disconsolate de-
feated ones by a motion to allow all
those holding proxies to sit in the
convention but not to vote. This
brought Judge Bagley to his feet; he
held the proxy of Mrs. f. J. Cannon
and he did not want a seat unless it
was accompanied with talking at
tachment. The mover of the PROPOSE
ton to extend the olive branch pro-
ceeding on the theory that beggars
should not be choosers, promptly with
drew his motion and left the proxies
out altogether
The committee on permanent organ
lZatton reported as follows:
GIassmaRs Triumph.
For chairman, William Glasmann.
Secretary, Miss Rose Garfield. Assist
ant secretary, Mrs. Jennie E. Nelson.
The report was promptly adopted.
The Great Man Talks.
Miss Garfield declined the election as
secretary, and f. J. Henderson, was
elected in her place. Mr.. Glasmann
made a talk which was brief and to
the point, but he promised to do some
thing which he will find is not so easy
as the controlling of primary elections.
He promised 1900 Republican majority
for the legislative ticket in this county
at the coming election. There was
considerable wrangling as to the Sc
judicial conventions. The matter was
finally adjusted by allowing the city
thirty-three and country twenty-five
delegates, after which an adjournment
was taken until 1880 pm. During the
recess there was considerable caucus
ing among the several delegations. The
greatest contest was over in the Fifth
ward where T. J. Cannon was dele
gate by the closest kind of a shave.
Frank wanted to go to the state con-
vention, wanted to go bad, but the
delegates could not see it that way.
He was finally named as a delegate
to Salt Lake city, but there was a roar
made and his name was taken from
the list and the first report did not
include him.
The convention met again at $50
and proceeded at once to business.
The first thing in order was the cleo
ton of delegates, as follows:

A complete list of delegates was
also named for the judicial conven-
ton, which will be published tomor-
row.
Franks Alliance With the Tribune.
When it was found that two wards
were shy one delegate each, a motion
was made to elect w. T. Critchlow
and S. L. Ives to fill the places. A
delegate from the Fifth ward proposed
the name of Hon. F. ]. Cannon, who
had been dropped from the list of del
egateS from that ward earlier in the
day because there was no room for
him. It looked very scaly for Mr..
Cannon for a while, until Mr. Critch-
low withdrew and the congressman
and Glasmann gave a nod and Cannon
was elected. 1t was not because the
convention was down on Cannon, but
because he has been in an unholy
alliance with the Tribune and other
people that he was subjected to such
rigid discipline. In the first instance,
it is said that he made personal APP
peal to the delegates from his ward
for a place on the state delegation, to
which a deaf ear was turned. A county
committee, which is in full accord
with Glasmann, was named. This
closed the work of the convention,
and Mr.. Cannon was called for and
made a brief speech, the burden of
which was in relation to the resurrec-
ton, which, in his case, was very ap-
propriate to the occasion.
