Governor David r. Francis president O
the Louisiana Purchase Exposition

fore the convention today, notified
President Springer that he would b.
unable to be present because of press

Denver was added today to the list O.
cities that desire to entertain the dele
gates next year. The biggest effort te
secure the next convention is being
made by the Portland, Ore, delegation
which apparently is in the lead for the
honor. The program today included the
following papers: Changes in our fin
ancial system which would benefit
stockmen," by S. r. Flynn of Illinois;
and Our new markets for livestock" /"
by Hon. George F. Thompson of Wash
ington, D. C.
DR.. w. c. Bailey of California, read
a paper on "The Angora goat industry"
He said the industry has been success
fully growing in the United States for
over 40 years, and the flocks have grown
from nothing to about 100000 animals.
Last year over 100000 pounds of mo-
hair were produced which sold for from
20 to As cents pound, and the Ameri-
can mills consumed over 5000, 1000
pounds. 1t would take some years to
produce enough mohair for home con-
but home consumption was
as rapidly as home produce
ton, and there was a demand for large,
fine skins far in excess of the supply.
The Angora goat is not creation of
the whim of speculation brought from
distant Turkey to induce the American
public to part with its hard earned
ucre, but he is a money maker and
when the American livestock breeder
prepares proper place for the right
Kind Of Angora, he need feel no hesi-
ancy in stocking with these silver
ieeced brush destroyers; they are an
American institution and they have
'ome to stay.
Observation-Disclosures
written instrument must be filed or re-
orded, priority is acquired from the |
moment of filing or recording. Here the |
tatute makes priority date from the /
lme the certificate is filed, and the |
ommon law rule has no application.
o hold that the filing Of the certif1-
ate of adoption Of an emblem relates
ack to the time of it's adoption, would
ut it in the power Of few persons to
old convention in remote precinct
f county at an early day in the can
ass and to refrain from filing a certi-
cate of adoption until the evening be-
ore election, and thereby defeat the
Sc Of such emblem by any party whom
1ey might have reason to believe would
dopt such emblem for their party tic
ct to be used in the same canvass and
ithin the same county.
Had the court considered the oral
.stimony as to whether or not either
srtificate was filed before the other, 1t
ould have been led to the conclusion
lat the preponderance of such evil
ence showed that the Independent Re-
lblican certificate was first filed; but
le endorsements made by the probate
ERIK on the backs of the certificates
lowing that each was filed at II
clock on the morning of October 20,
wing been made at time when the
flce was open for business, and being
gular on their face, the court has ta-
N such endorsements to be conclusive
to the time when the certificates
ere actually filed.
The court is therefore Of the opinion
at both the Republican tickets and
e Independent Republican tickets
st and counted in Socorro county in :
e election Of 1902, so tar as the in :.
ngement of the emblem of either by
e other is concerned, were regular :
d legal, and should stand as counted
d certified by the board of county
Of said county.
This dfsDcses of the only question
lsed by the notice Of contest on be- .
II of the contestant. The various a
her questions raised by the answer :.
d the replication are unnecessary to :,
nsider, for the reason that no differ
result would be attained by any de-
ion the court might reach upon such :.
estfons. The notice Of contest is
erefore dismissed, and Judgment or
red in favor Of the respondent. X
