County of Lewis In response to ques-
lions he said that the "rotation agree
ment' was made when the district was
formed at a meeting of the Congression-
al Committee of the Seventh District
and that he understood that it expired
with this year. HIe opposed with en-
phasis the "Young blood's attempt to
suggest Democratic polity to the gray
haired fathers"
Mr. Crawford asked How long must
blood be here, before it be allowed a
voice in party councils?'
"Until it is naturalized, y retorted Mr.,
Williams.
II only asked to find out if the Judge
and myself had attained that privilege"
said Mr.. Crawford.
Mr.. Oehman took decided stand
against the resolution saying that he
knew Mr.. Schubert and knew the
people and that they would not consider
him the nominee of the party, and
would not vote for him. He wanted
his protest to go on record
Mr.. White said that he had written to
the Chairmen of Lewis Giles and
Wayne, as directed to do by the Com
mittee at its January meeting, urging
them to meet and adopt plan of nomi-
mating which would give the people a
hearing, and that he had not heard
from Giles, that Mr.. Cover of Wayne
wanted the rotation agreement" to 60
undisturbed, but was willing to meet
and consider plan to give the whole
district voice in nominating, that MI.
Schubert was not willing to have his
race passed upon outside of Lewis
County. Mr.. White favored endorsing
Mr.. Schubert. He said that the letters
from Messrs Wade and Schubert were at
his office and he could not present them
to the Committee.
Mr.. Oehman wanted to know if Mr..
Schubert if elected would support the
nominee of the Senatorial primary if
elected.
Mr. White read from Mr.. Schuberts
letter as follows:
NoTE.-SIr. Schubert's letter was not
left with the Secretary for record and
therefore cannot be given
He stated that this was the only oh.
lection he had ever had to Mr.. Schubert,
and that this was now removed.
The resolution was adopted, after
which the meeting adjourned.

so as to stand a better show to obtain
favors from the State administration.
Mr.. Bimmel moved that committee
of three be appointed to draft a plan.
Carried.
The chair appointed Messrs Frierson,
Oehman and Craig
Mr.. White. said that he favored
delegated convention of the County, as
opposed to massmeeting, as it was
fairer and gave to the masses of the
party chance to be heard.
He was asked if he did not think
that direct primary. vote the fairest
and most convenient way for the people
to select their delegates to this delegat-
ed convention.
Mr.. Frierson moved to reconsider
this motion, which was carried, where
upon he moved that the plan adopted
at the January meeting as shown in the
minutes be amended so as to strike out
the words Saturday May u, 1906"
and insert therefor "Satm day February
"a, 1906 and strike out the words
"Monday May IA, 1906" and insert
therefor "Monday February 26, 1906"
the original plan remaining otherwise
unchanged.
Mr.. Oehman and others opposed this
motion
1t was agreed that Mr.. Frierson's
motion be amended by substituting the
dates March Bird and 9Th for February
"a and 26, and the motion was adopted,
Mr. r. B. Williams offered the follow
ing resolution:
| WHEREAS our sister County Lewis
has selected the Hon. Fred Schubert as
her candidate for the Pictorial District

District was formed that the said coun.
ties entered into an agreement through
