half completed when Judge Foster. in a
pleasant little speech, withdrew from the
race. From the beginning Of the ballot
Judge Fosters friends were uneasy about
their candidate, for Judge Jordan drew a
heavy vote. Marion county alone gave him
100 votes. 1t was Immediately after the
vote of Morgan county was announced that

then made unanimous and the judge came
forward and made brief but appropriate re-
marks. The incompleted ballot ave Judge
Jordan III votes and Judge Foster PIG. This
was the vote of ffty-five counties.

nomination of four delegates at large and
this was done by reclamation. The dele
gates are Senators Fairbanks and Bever-
idge, Governor Mount and Charles S. Hern-
~, chairman of the Republican state COM

claring that the four candidates receiving
the highest number Of votes should be the
