The biennial republican delegate
convention was held at the courthouse
last Wednesday. It was q. harmony
meeting and nothing on the surface
would indicate anything but that all
the old war horses present were OF
one mind. The necessity for party
organization and of voting for the
head of the ticket whatever that would
be was dinned: into the ears OF the
delegates The notable feature of the
gathering was the return OF three old
time alliance and populist leaders to
the party fold. - -. III
Jacobson was the only man men
toned of the gubernatorial candid ates
and while the delegates were not
pledged directly, nearly everyone was
vouched for as q Jacobson man by
those who presented the Names.
The convention was called to order
by County Chairman Alton Crosby.
He was elected temporary chairman
and S. H. Stauffer of Burbank was
elected temporary secretary. This
organization was afterwards made

A recess of fifteen minutes was taken
