been clean throughout. (ApplauseD The administration. then. of the differ ent departments of the territory under his care. has been such as to call for applause, not alone from republicans, but from all the people of Arizona. (Applause) And believing that with his high qualities, his executive ability, which I pronounce of as high order as any governor We have ever had and higher than most of them We have had in this territory (Applause)-his eXecu- tive ability and integrity, united with the intelligence which he has displayed believing that his are the qualifica- tions needed it this time. we feel that his election will open the door to state hood for Arizona forthwith. (Applause) And with such a candidate We may go into the contest with the assurance that We have a man who will work for his election-Nho will work morning, day and night. and work, work, un- ceasingly. unt. the sun goes down on the day of election.

 CAPTAIN CHRISTY NAMED.
 Jerry NIillay took the stage to put Captain George D. Christy in nomina- ton. Mir. Millay's speech was mas. terly effort. He dwelt upon the pe- culiar fitness of Captain Christy for the high place to which he asplred. His character and energy were such as that responsible position demanded. His training and education were of a high order, a guarantee of the able perform ance of the duties which would devolve upon him. He was, too, an orator with power to plead the needs of the people. His family commanded the respect. of the whole territory and its rnsmberS were best liked by those who knew them best. Captain Christy, moreover. would be a strong candidate, the cham pion of the young men or the terri tory, a powerful element. He had, be- side. the respect and confidence of both young and old.
 There were several speeches second ing these nominations. There were no other candidates and vote was taken by a call of the counties. Tn the event of a divided delega tion and the chair man being unable to return the vote, it was arranged that the delegation should be boiled. This was done only in the case of MaricoDl county.
 The result was as follows:
 Murphy-Apache ,. Coconino :, Co., chise F. Graham :, Maricopa [. Mohave 3, Navajo :. Pima :. Pinal ?. Santa Cruz 1, Yavapai p. Yuma 7-96.
 Christy-Gila x. Graham 3. MaricOpa 2S. Pima 6. Pinal g. Yavapai 3-5l.
 The nomination of Governor Murphy was announced by the chair. A commit tee was appointed to wait upon the governor and inform him of the action of the convention, and it's desire that he address it.

(Cheers.) Some of our opponents console themselves with the idea that there are factions within the republican party. They viii find themselves sadly mistaken in Nc vember. The republican party knows no factions, knows no combinations for
