Delegates 70 STATE Aeaus'
After tho election the first question
considered was the selection Of dele
gates to the state league. It was open
ed by Mr.. Allison, who proposed that
the districts get together and name the
delegates. Then followed a debate
whether the district clubs would not
attend to this matter. Mr.. William Nc
cormiek favored the election of the del
eEates in bunch, which was opposed
by Mr.. d. W. Martin, who said such
a proceeding would leave no motive for
the meeting of the district clubs.
At this Juncture Secretary KiRdelber-
Der read letter from William Bur-
dette Mathews, first vice president OF
the State League, to Chairman w. II.
HornIsh, o. the Ohio county Republican
committee, which stated that each club
was entitled to FIVE delegates, and that
Ohio county would be entitled in the
deliberations of the State League meet
ing to one vote for each 100 votes cast
for william Mckinley for President In
1896.
The delegate question was settled by
decision to elect only i've delegates
for the Ohio county club, and nomina-
lions were then in order.
