dried" and every delegate had a
chance to express himself.
For president Mckinley is first
choice, and Reed is second but the
delegates will be uninstructed.
Owing to the meeting being held
in the day time there were only a
few colored delegates present, but
they were recognized and APP
pointed on every committee and
delegation.
Every proceeding was conducted
in fair, business-like manner.
The new county committee
means that mugwumps must get

REPUBLICAN CONVENTIONS.
HARMONY MEETINGS HELD To-
DAY.
The County Convention Shows the Ma
jority Favors the Regulars-Twelfth
District Convention Begins.

According to regular call of the
members of the Bexar county re-
publican executive committee,
the committee and delegates to the
county convention assembled in
Mission garden hall at 10 o'clock
this morning and was called to
order by Mr.. Ed. Froboese, ST., one
of the executive committee, who
stated the object of the convention.
Mr.. j. P. Newcomb was chosen
temporary chairman, and he APP
pointed Messrs. III. l.. Dignowity,
M. Lindner, G. X. Brenneman, T.
F. Kittridge, w. j. Locke, Bart
Crowther, A. WoeltZ, It. b. John
son, Emil Schuetze and HI. Geyer,
as committee on credentials and
basis Of representation.
While the committee retired,
Colonel Newcomb, addressed the
convention, detailing the history
of the republican politics of the
past few years in the county and
saying this was the first regular
convention held in the county in
10 years past. He regretted there
were some discussions in the party
in the state but said a party
that had no discussions, no differ
ent ideas, was not worth much.
An entirely unanimous party was
poor thing. He paid his respects
to the office holding clique which
had controlled our politics in the
past, saying no respectable prim-
aries had been held and the best
elements Of the two parties had
been kept away from meetings be-
cause Of the bossism that had dom.
mated them. II the party is left
in these hands, this state OF things
will go on forever. A good many
have an idea that an executive
committee has all power. This is
a mistake. 1t has a certain power,
but the people have all the power
and their word is law. This con-
vention is the wish of the people
and its doings and conclusions
will be respected by the best ele-
ments OF the party.
His speech was here cut short by
the committee returning to report
They reported representation as
follows:
Precincts 1, A; 2, 1884, 3; 8, 8;
6, 90; z, 8; s, 80, II; 10, g; IL, s;

2; 80, 2; 80, 2; 33, g.; Al, 4; total
precincts, %; total votes, III.
The report was adopted.
This gave this convention a
majority Of precincts in the
county and majority of votes,
also.
The temporary chairman au-
nounced the committee on order
of business, tc-wit: r. Hanschke,
H. ]. Vogeler, F. EHGrothsus,
VIM. Hoefling, j. P. Oldham. "A
recess Of ten minutes was then
taken.

TWELFTH DISTRICT CONVENTION.
After the previous convention
had adjourned, the district con-
vention was called to order by
Chairmen Hoefling and Lindner
and Mr.. Hoefling read the call and
stated that the object was for the
selection of two delegates and two
alternates TO the national republic
can convention at st. Louis.
Chairman Lindner at length ex-
planned the reasons for calling the
convention and presented ample
proof that the last district conven.
ton had chosen no chairman OF
the executive committee and also
proved that G. w. Ogden
was only appointed by that con-
vention as chairman OF the district
campaign committee, and Nat.
Sulzbacher was only "employed"
as secretary of that committee, and
showed their own letter heads with
their names thus signed. He also
showed that of the regular COM
