Bisbee daily review., 1908-04-12
THE BREACH wIpENs.

The result of the Republican con ventiors (for there were two) held in this city yesterday. win be that two delegations from Cochise county win be knocking at the door of the Tucson convention for admission on Saturday next Both factions arc seemingly we'll pleased with the re suits, and each claiming that they will be recognized as the only simon pure, blown-in-the-bottle Republicans of the county. One of the contest ing delegations will be headed by 0. A. Overlook, of Douglas, and the other will be headed by J. c. Cowan also of the Shelter City, as these gentlemen were put forward yester- day as the leaders of the warning factions in the position of chairman of the respective conventions.
 when the Republican county cen traI committee met in Bisbee recently and ignored the plain direction of the territorial committee as to how the delegates to the territorial conven- tion should be chosen. by appointing the delegates in the face of the man date that they should be chosen after primary elections were held in the several counties, the Review predicted that there would be a revolt on the. part of those who were .contending for procedure in accordance with the call of the territorial committee. What the Review predicted has been what has happened since the commit. tee meeting.
 Yesterday the delegates elected at the call issued for primaries by what has been generally known as the MeReynold's faction, refused to af- fIiate with each other and proceeded to divide into two conventions The result is told elsewhere in this paper.
 One of the features of the conyen- ton yesterday was the dividing of the Douglas delegation between the Bis  bee factions. According to reports which have been coming up from Douglas since the holding of the pri- maries . week ago, Republican peace was so perfect in the Shelter City that it was to be pointed to in the future as an example of brotherly love and harmonious political afilia- tion; but behold! when the warning factions went into action yesterday they were each headed by a Douglas man. and both from the Douglas dele gation which was chosen at regular love feast where Bisbse was pointed to as place of evil political influence, where warning factions walked the streets with political bludgcons No" it seems that Bisbee is not the only place on the map where there is dis agreement in the ranks of<the G. o. P
 + all the reports are true which are coming up from several other coan ties Of the territory, the Repft Tea. convention at Tucson will 5e an event worth attending, provided a protect ing armor sufficient to guarantee one from injury may be devised. It is quite likely that Cochise county will aot be the only one at Tucson with snore than one delegation. Mariccpa and GiIa are both expected to follow a similar course to that pursued by the Cochise Republicans yesterday There is DO hope of settling the Re publican political troubles in thii county. or in the territory. The fight is on for the extermination of either the faction headed by Governor Kib bey favoring instructing the delegates for Taft, or those who are opposing the governor and the federal officials of the territory.
