tenor. Attorney HOltzheimer of Eu-
reka was recognized by the chair when
.Juab was called and proceeded TO take
fall out of salt Lake county. He
thought it showed weakness if the Salt
Lake Democrats were compelled to so
to a man already nominated on one
ticket for timber for the office under
consideration.
a delegate from Salt Lake county
created laugh at this point by say
ing that the delegation. was converted
and was ready TO vote.
Judge H p. Henderson arose to "a
question of personal privilege at this
point and when recognized by the
chair withdrew the name of w c. Hall
although he maintained that the nom
inatiOn had been made in perfect good
faith and for what was considered the
best interests of the party.
o. W. Moyie was recognized and said
that it did not require the assurance
of Judge Henderson to establish the
fact that none but the best of motives
prompted the nomination of Judge
Hall; but he thought that if the Salt
Lake people We're better acquainted
with the ability of Mr. Whitecotton
they would not oppose his nomination
He moved that the nomination of Mr.
WhitecottOn be made by acclamation
and the motion went through without
a single voice against it.
O. w Powers moved Shat the state
committee be empowered to fill all va
cancies on the ticket. This motion car
ried without opposition and a motion
TO adjourn carried in the same way
While the delegates gave three cheers
and a tiger for the winning ticket. Ad-
joUrnment was taken at lust 2:45
