and harmony that prevailed in this
meeting, the committee being a unit on
all questions and motions that came up
and there being nine precincts out of
ten in the county represented, settled
all questions of faction and insured the
nomination of straight Republican
ticket that will be satisfactory to all
the Republicans of the county and that

ton, which meets October 4, will elect
two delegates to the Republican terri

publican party Of San Juan county is
in better shape for harmony and action
this time, than ever before in its his
tory. It's chances for success are far
better than ever in the past, because
the heavy immigration into the county
for the past two years has been large
ly in favor of he Republican party.
