objected on the plea that their can.
didate had pulled through and the y
were selfish enough to accept the con-
ditions as they We're. The second bal
lot showed gain for Miss Lay to Al
votes and Mrs. Tully to AZ, the mum
ber necessary for choice being 45
votes. The third ballot was taken
and resulted in Miss Lay receiving
the 45 votes as against Mrs. Tully 8s
and Mr.. Sommers g. MISS Lay was
thereupon declared the nominee of the
convention.
For county clerk, N S. Calhoun,
of New Castle, J. J. Shideler. of Ri
tle and John Weir, of Glenwood, were
nominated and the ballot taken showed
that Mr. Shideler had received SO
votes, Calhoun 13 and Weir 20, thus
making Mr. Shideler the choice of the
delegates
Ollie Thorson had walkaway for
treasurer, receiving 81 votes as against
q cast for his opponent, j. A. Mac

Mr.. MacRae the nomination of Mr..
Thorson was made unanimous.
Another battle was ahead and the
nomination for sheriff did not go beg
ging and until the last count no one
could forecast with certainty who
would be the lucky one, Frank w.
Adams, the present efficient incum-
bent of that office was candidate
for denomination. He was opposed
by R. P. Malaby the popular marshal
of Glenwood and R. P. Coulter, Ad-
ans received A votes on the first bal
lot while Malaby had 30 and Coulter
IA votes. The second ballot pulled
Adams through with none to spare,
he receiving the necessary 40, Malaby
3S and Coulter 6. This gave the nom
nation to Mr.. Adams.
Dr.. Clark was unanimously renom-
mated for county coroner. The
Office of surveyor was left to the coun
ty central committee to fill
1t was the desire of the delegates
present that those who attended the
senatorial convention should vote for
Eugene Grubb, of Carbondale and
resolutions We're passed binding them
to do go. Mr.. Grubb's efficiency in
various matters regarding the welfare
of the county and the state was recog.
nized and he was considered the best
and most available candidate for that
Office, no other name having been
mentioned.
This presented an opportunity for
George Yule, of Garfield creek, who
exploded bomb in the convention in
the nature of resolution recommend
ing to the judicial convention the
nomination of John l.. Noonan for
district attorney. Several objected
to the passage Cf the resolution on
the ground that there were other can
didates and while 1t was not stated
in the convention several of the dele
gates said afterwards that the fact
that Judge Noonan almost invariably
fights the ticket or some part of it
was the principal reason for the op-
position to the resolution while others
declared that Noonan's opposition
to Governor Peabody and his law and
order administration and the aid and
sympathy which Noonan has given
the law breaking strikers figured
considerably in the case, Whatever
the cause it was plain to be seen from
the first that the resolution was far
from popular with the convention
w. NJ. Jones had moved to lay the
matter on the table and C. G.. Harris
moved as substitute for all previous
motions that the delegates be sent to
the judicial convention uninstructcd
This motion prevailed almost unani
mousIy.

retaine a members Of the state cen
ual committee in recognition Of their
services the past two years.
