Rockville primaries to Choose Dele
gates to County Convention.
Special Correspondence OF The Evening Star
ROCKVILLE, Nd, August 2, 1897.
Republican primary elections were held
in the several districts OF the county Satur-
day, for the purpose of sending delegates
TO convention to be held here Thursday
next This convention will nominate a
ticket to be voted for at the November cleo
tion Reports from the several districts
show good attendance and that harmony
prevailed. At the election in Rockville dis
trict there was practically but one ticket,
the following delegates being chosen:
For county convention-Charles b. Jones,
Carey Kingdom, A. A. Davis, A. l.. Scheirer,
Rein Offutt, James w. Martin. F. L.
Brown, George Washington and A. j. Pow
ell. Alternates-Charles Ogden, Arthur
Mace. Michael Conroy, Hillary A. Powell,
and Ed. Brown.
A district committee was also elected as
follows: Horace Sedgwick, Thomas McKen-
Eey, William johnson, Jno. L. Dawson,
Charles NJ. JONES' Emmett Dove, Geo. W.
Meads. ST.. Wesley Carroll, Edward w Eng
land and Louis Proctor.
The convention Thursday will open a
campaign In this county which promises to
be lively from start to finish and will doubt
less furnish some surprises. While quite a
number Of names have been suggested for
places on the republican ticket, nothing
definite has been done, and there appears
to be general feeling in the party to bury
personal aims and look solely to fitness and
availability.
Since the nomination of a ticket by the
democratic primaries and the action OF the
state convention in Baltimore last week af-
fairs in that party are comparatively quiet
in this section. The financial plank of the
platform adopted. while 1t does not satisfy
the friends of free silver coinage, Is equally

appears to be the general impression that
it will gain no votes in this county that
were cast against the doctrines of the Chi

Ter, had arrived by the morning
train from Sydney, and that they
had proceeded as far as the lagoon.
On the 31st Of the same month But
Ter was seen on the Emu Plain
station alone. A search resulted in
some of Lee Weller's property being
found. Near the camp there was
also found a Logging, made in Bris-
bane, and this ultimately led TO the
discovery, indirectly, Of another dis
appear ance, that Of Preston, a young
mining student, who had gone away
on a prospecting expedition with
man from Sydney, and had not since
been heard of. The Logging found
at Glenbrook by its description had
evidently belonged to Preston. Feel
ing sure that Preston's body was be-
tween Springwood and Linden, the
police officers on December, 3 dis
covered in a gully short, narrow
grave under the ledge of . rock,
forming almost cave, about two
miles from the railway line. There
was a body in it, which had been
buried in grave not more than
three feet six inches long and three
feet deep, with a proportionats
width, and in order to get it into
the space it had been doubled up.
The remains were identified as those
of Preston. Shortly afterwards the
searchers came upon another grave.
Digging revealed body, which
prove to be that of Lee Weller. On
January 2lst news came that body,
supposed to be that of the missing
man Lesagh, had been unearthed at
the foot of the Black Ranges on the
Burrawong Station. The body was
exhumed, aud evidence showed that
it was not that OF Lesagh, but of a
man named Burgess, who, it was as
certained, had left Sydney with But
Ter to go prospecting. Butler sub
sequently left Sydney in the Swan
hilda for San Francisco, shipping as
a seaman with Lee Weller's master
mariners certificate, and was arrest
ed on his arrival in San Francisco.
