Thursday, July 4th, the opera
house in Miller was crowded with an
enthusiastic lot of delegates to the
republican county Convention, who
came from all sections of the county
eager to shout for their principles,
and their party. They were earnest,
enthusiastic and generally as har
monious as in any convention eyer
held that manifested great interest.
The very general impression created
by the convention is excellent for the
success OF the strong ticket nomin-
ated. Republicanism is in the air.
Any close observer can read it, in
the republican interest and enthusi-
asm, and i'm the decentralization and
lethergy of our opponents. And the
ticket is both strong in its personnel
and happily distributed over the
county.
THE DETAILS,
Convention was called to order in
the morning at IL o'clock by chair
man Briggs, of the county committee.
John COstigan OF Howell, was made
temporary chairman, Harry Fross,
Secretary, and Fred Clayton, st.
I ,,rro,no ,oo;ufopt
The necessary motions for the va
rious committees followed, to be APP
pointed by the chair, after which ad-
journment was taken for dinner.
Any contests over credentials, reso-
lutions, order OF business, or perma-
nent organization, if any occurred,
were settled by the committees, and
everything in the convention went
along smoothly.
After dinner, chairman Costigan,
hearing calls for Major Picker, call
ed that gentleman to the front and
presented him to the audience. The
Major made an eloquent speech, full
of patriotism, which pleased and en-
Unused his audience, and which later
on, obtained for him the convention 8
unanimous support for congress.
Temporary chairman Costigan de-
clined to serge longer, and Charles
Thomson was selected as permanent
chairman.
just here waye of patriotic en-
.thusiasm spread over the large crowd
by announcement of the receipt OF a
telegram saying that Santiago had
surrendered. The audience arose
and gave three cheers for our army
and navy.
Then the convention listened to re-
ports of committees, after whichit
settled down to some very spirited
contests upon candidates.
Each range selected its own dele
gates to the state convention, as
named above, which selections were
ratified by the whole convention.
