feeling among republicans, the
storm being over.
w. G. Geer OF Gallon, was named
as temporary chairman and George
A. Hoot of Fremont, as temporary
secretary. Geer was applauded.
Chairman Geer's speech failed to
arouse enthusiasm until he mention
ed the name OF Roosevelt when
there were loud cheers. Taft's name
called forth a. still greater demon
stration and then there were loud
cheers for Mouser, although falling
TO equal those for Taft.
The convention call provided for
31l delegates, OF which 50 were from
Erie county. Not hall OF these dele
gates were in the hall.
At the conclusion OF Geer's speech
there was a long pause. Then Judge
King suggested that the call be
read. This was done.
Carl Clark Of Sandusky moved
chat two men from each county
be named for committees on rules,
permanent organizations and creden-
tials and on resolutions. He spoke
at such length that Chairman Geer
became mixed in it, but it was fin
ally Strengthened out. A recess or
ten minutes was then taken TO per-
init the counties to canvass.
Erie county played the harmony
game according to program, by rec
! ognizing both factions. Edward
Jareck was made chairman of both
| delegations. For resolutions, Il. b.
KING and c. b. Clark were named
and for rules, etc, John Hertlein
and +. L. Coen. Everything was
simply lovely. For congressional
committeeman, Frank Dlmon and
Raymond Jarech were named.
