maries to attend the county convention
for the purpose of electing delegates to
the state convention, which Will be held
in Spokane on the 10th. gathered at the
court house Saturday morning, and were
called to order by Chairman Preble OF
the central committee. There was a
surprisingly large attendance for con-
yention OF this character, especially as
the standard bearer OF the national party
has practically been selected in advance
through the almost unanimous wish of
the followers of Jackson and Jefferson
and Of the later converts to the principles
as euunciated in the Chicago platform.
The gathering showed conclusively the
interest and earnest feeling manifest
against the party OF trusts, monopolies,
militaryism, Imperialism and arrogancy
and was strong indication of demo-
cratic supremacy in the November cleo
lions. Mr.. Preble was made temporary
chairman and Mr.. krutz secretary, and
on notion OF MIR. Strobach the tempo.

The following resolutions we're read
and unanimously adopted:
"The democracy OF Yakima county in
convention assembled, renews its allie
glance to the grand principles laid down
in that second Declaration Of Indepen-
dence, the Chicago platform, and sever
ally and collectively pledge ourselves in
united effort to have the same crystal
lied into the law of the land.
I'VE unqualitiedly denounce the pres
ent national republican administration
for it's shameful subseryiency TO the
money power as indicated by the inan-
cial bill recently passed at its behest by
d servile republican majority in congress
which is law calculated to bestow ia
vors upon select few at the expense Of
the toiing masses
