Republican County Convention.

The republican convention of Pima county assembled in Reid's opera house at Tucson Saturday of last week.
 For soIse reason or another, not yet made public, the great mass of the zoo republican voters in Tucson had remained away from the polls at the primary election, and only seventy seven voters turned out and cast their ballots, electing these seventeen dele gates, who appeared on the floor of the convention as described:
 Tucson -J. J. Hill, c. A. Donnelly, Thos. Hughes, H. B. Dodge. J. L. Messersmith, F. J. Landon, John T. Etchells, II. II. Filling. c. c. Suter, Louis Leese, w. F Scott, Vim. Reid, Chas. Bowman, j Knox Corbett, by J. c. Smith, proxy, NJ. Lamont, by w. F. Scott, proxy, c. T. Nutcr, by J. D. Johnson, proxy, Wm. 3abriskie, by l.. D. Smith, proxy.
 From Nogales there were two dele gations: One backed by the regular republican primary with a solid vote of fOrty-tiye straight republicans, who sent to represent them j. T. Brick wood, James Speedy and $. D. Piper. Charles R. Hood was proxy for Mir Speedy and Allen T. Bird for Mir. Pi- per. The other delegation was backed by a spurious primary, at which flfty- four votes were cast, twenty-one or which were by democrats and popu- lists, six were cast by the Lord only knows who, and a large part Of the remaining twenty-seven were caught by falsehood and misrepresentation. The delegates from this primary were Earl Griswold Joe Ford and D. Avery, and II. K. Chenoweth held their proxies.
 In their wisdom the committee on credentials, consisting of four of the Tucson delegates and one from Gala basas, reported in favor of seating MT. CEenoweth, and firing ouO the regular delegation.
 Beside MT. Chenoweth and the seventeen gentlemen from Tucson the convention consisted of the following named gentlemen

Gates the assertion made in these dispatches
last night on the authority of a prominent
Democratic Senator that the free-silver ma
jority at the Chicago convention win not
adopt financial plank in the platform adj
vccating the free coinage of silver at the
ratio of 16 to l. He admits, Of course, that
free silver will control but he too. claims
that the sound-money men Will be sufficient
ly strong to demand recognition, which rec
ognition viii take the form of concessions
in the framing of the financial plank. There
have already been held sufficient State con-
ventions to form an approximate estimate
OF the relative strength of the two factions.
A study of the results will show that the
claim of between two and three hundred
sound-money men was not an exaggeration.
New York has not yet held it's convention,
but it is known that the delegation will
consist of seventy-two sound-money men.
Similarly, Maryland and New Jersey have
yet to speak, but their stand is well known.
The following can be taken as the strength
Of sound money: Connecticut, y: Delaware,
s; Maine, u; Maryland, 16; Massachusetts,,
30: Michigan, 2S; Minnesota, II; New Hamp-
shire, s.; New Jersey, 20; New York, 72;
Pennsylvania, ca: Rhode Island, 8: Vermont,
s; Wisconsin, "a; District OF Columbia, 4;

This estimate will be conceded by the most
rabid silver men to be very conservative. II
comedies to free silver every delegate from
Ohio, although 1t is safe to claim at least
ten from that State. 1t surrenders West
Virginia and every Southern State, though
1t is believed that in several Southern
States the sound-money men in the big cities
will be strong enough to pick up some deie-
gates here and there. But even on this low
estimate it will be seen that the sound
money men control more than one-third Of
the delegates, and that as the free-silver
men have only a majority vote, they cannot
nominate a candidate without the aid of the
sound-money men because of the two-thirds
rule which prevails in the Democratic con-
vention- It Is on this basis that the sound
money men will treat, and the price Of their
vote will be concessions in the money plank
