The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1906-08-01

Borah stood out in bold relief, The
handwriting was too plain. The dele
gates capitnlated. Borah was victor,
Tomorrow morning at 10 clock the
convention will assemble. The caucus
decision will be ratified. The organiza-
tion, that is, Brady and Gooding, will
ostensibly be in control, but the real
power, the hand upon the throttle, will
be w. +. Borah Of Boise, and TO pla-
cate Brady. TO let him down easy,
schemes will be made In which his mag
napimity, his placing of party before
self, will be pointed out, and to the
people of the State he will be declared
martyr to the cause of Republican
ism.
New Slate Is Made.
After the harmony conference it was
learned that new slate for state Of
fees had been agreed upon, 1t will be
presented to the convention in the
morning. The slate follows;
Supreme Judzo-George Stewart Of hda.
Coneressman-Bu L. Fronch OF Laluh
Governor--Frank r.. Goodipg.
eutenont. .Governor-Ezra BusSell Of Bear
Secretary of state-willnm Lunsdon Of
Treasurer of Static. A. Hastings of NeE
Pcrce.
Auditor of stSte-R. s Brogen. Jr., Of
SannocE
Attorney Gencral-John j. Gurheen of
sannock,
Superintendent OF Public Instruction..
A, Carpenter OF Idaho.
French Weakest One
All of the above are renominatives
except the Secretary of State, Treas
urer, superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton and Judge of the Supreme court.
These three officials have served two
terms. Perhaps the weakest sister on
the ticket is the candidate for Congress,
Burton l.. French. He cuts almost as
much figure in the lower house as our
own Congressman, Howell. The only
reason he was put on the slate was that
no opposition appeared. Tomorrow
morning tho slate will be presented
and the delegates whom today had
blood in their eyes will walk up ike
lambs to the slaughter and vote 10

Senator Hepburn was an interested
spectator today, The Senator is not a
delegate to the convention, and he
claims to have kept hands of. He was
not present st the conference this at
ternoon, but at its conclusion he was
invited in and made q short address.
Senator Hepburn does not believe In
the selection of Senators by State con-
vention. He has repeatedly stated that
in interviews, and his views on the
question are well known.
Brady at the Helm.
The news of the harmony conference
means, OF course, that Brady will re-
main at the head of the State COM
mittee. He will guide the party through
the campaign, while the outcome is vic
tory for the Pocatello man, as it leaves
him in control, and upon him will de-
the Republican ship in the Gem State
during the campaign, smiling to the
newspaper gang as he did this evening
after the harmony conference.
The State committee will meet tomor
row at 10 clock. The convention will
meet in McNechols g. Wright's hall.
1t has been handsomely decorated by a
committee OF ladies of Pocatello.
Many Pencil Pushers Present.
Flags and bunting have been taste
fully draped and bright-colored flowers
have Transformed the hall into bower
of beauty. Perhaps never before have
so many newspaper men attended
State convention in Idaho as are pres
ent at this one. All the Salt Lake pa
pers are represented, as also the Salt
Lake Office Of the Associated Press.
.dany Idaho newspapers are also repre-
sented. Pocatello has taken care of
the crowd in an admirable manner,
The hotels filed TO overlowing, the citi-
zeps threw open their doors and dele
gates and lay members as we'll were
well cared for Tonight the tired dele
gates retired early. The convention of
tomorrow, now that harmony has been
reached, will be brief and the slate as
agreed upon this afternoon will be hur-
ried through
Borah Is Gratiied.
Mr.. Borah and bis friends made no
effort to conceal their qualification over
the outcome. Among other things, Mr..
Borah said
"It would be foolish for me to ex-
press anything but satisfaction. Pres
ent indications are that there will be
no opposition in the convention tomor.

Gooding Also Pleased.
Gov. Goodipg, too, was pleased, which
was quite natural The Governor de-
