AS soon as the report of the Commit
tee was read, Gen. Kennedy moved
that the Committee be instructed to
vote as unit for Col. w. r. Warnock
for Congress, and the motion was
adopted with whirl without a dissent
ing vote.
There was no dissension as to sup
porting Judge Warnock, but the old
gang was there to try to get onto the
delegation for the benefit of Mr.. Ly-
brand, to throw to him all the support
they could get from Logan county. All
the motions made by them were to pre-
vent the selection of delegation that
they could not use to that end. All the
effort of the majority of the Convention
was to secure delegation that would
stand Loyalty to Warnock, and that in
no contingency could be thrown to Ly-
brand, for whom the old gang in the
District are doing their best to secure
the nomination. They have been
knocked out in Hardin, Champaign,
Hancock and Logan, and they will be
beaten in Union. The District will be
freed from gang rule, and a man of
honor, purity and ability, whoever he
may be, will be chosen to represent the
District.
After Judge Warnock's endorsement
by the Convention, he. was called out,
and made a splendid speech.
Hon. George w. Ross, of, Hancock,
also candidate, was present, and be-
ing called out, made short but felici-
tious speech, and made good impres
sion on the Convention.
Mr.. Dennis Denny was endorsed BY
unanimous vote for member of the
Board of Equalization, and was author
lied to select his delegates.
On motion Judge Price of Lima,
was endorsed for reelection as Circnit
..,..:
. uuse, anu was auCnofi@eo 10 selec1
his delegates from this county.
+. The following resolutions were adop-
ted without dissent, and the convention
adjourned.
The Republicans OF Logan county
pledge anew their devotion to an hon
est dollar and business prosperity; con-
graduate the country on its great ex-
ports, its splendid revenues, its busy
