Then came Denominations. A. N.
| Edwards was placet in nomination
| for representative 4 j.. Allen John
son and Price Walter by NJ. 3. Scott.
The vote was by ballot. All of the
Pendleton strength was thrown by
him to Edwards, The first, second
and third ballots were tie-26 to %.
On the fourth ballot Mr.. Walters re-
ceived q and was declared the nomi-
nee.
Jay Turley and d w. Flsherdick
we're then nominated loroonstitution-
al delegate. Mr.. 1'tu5 won.
Then w. r. Williams and Will
| Evans were nominate for treasurer.
Mr.. Williams was the leoessful man.
Then followed a scene that was the
one regretful feature of the oonven-
tion. Feeling that Azec and the up
per end of the county had received
more than their share of the ticket
the Pennington delegation, after a
day that tried the courage of brave
men, made a farce OF what followed.
The convention that had been or
ganized amidst such conditions, that
had by majority vote selected men
for certain positions. was only saved
from confusion by tao cool head Of
the chairman, NJ. B. Scott. The nartv
owes Mr.. Scott cent ot gratitude.
The remainder ot ,he ticket was
selected by the convention as follows;
County Clerk-Io be filed.
