 The convention having completed its preliminary work, the business of nominations was arrived at There being no opposing candidates for sev- eral of the offices the following names were selected by acclamation:
 Council-Kean St. Charles, Kinyman
 Assembly-Silas w. Tobey, Chloride
 Sheriff-Walter Brown, Kingman
 Treasurer-J. s. Withers, Kingman
 For district attorney there were three names placed in nomination, w. E. Moroney, c. G. Krook and w. E. Ginder. The vote showed AS for Mo- roney, 26 for Krook, and } for Ginder. Mr. Moroney was called for and made a nice little speech of acceptance.
 Mr. Krook then arose to question of personal privilege. He said that he had been attacked by newspaper and its editor with d view to besmirching his character and placing him before the public in an unenviable light. He d 4nied in vehement terms that there had ever been one thing in his official life that could be pointed at as dis honest or dishonorable and challenged any man to meet him on the platform or elsewhere. His legislative life was clean; he had voted for every measure that in his honest opinion was for the b st interest of his constituents.
 The next office was that of Probate Judge. The names of J. D. Jordan and L. M. Teale. were placed before the convention. A vote showed Teale 52, Jordan 24. Mir. Jordan moved to make the nomination unanimous, which was carried.
 For recorder J. w. Morgan and R. A. Robertson were placed in nomina- tion. The vote resulted, Morgan 30, Robertson. 46. Robertson was declared the nominee of the convention.
 The office creating the most specula- tion, that of supervisors, was arrived at. Three names were placed before the convention, w. B. Stephens, J. C. Potts and Thomas McNeely. The order of business adopted by the con- vention provided that each candidate must receive majority of all the votes cast, which caused mixup when the vote was taken on this office. Stephens received 46, McNeely 50 and Potts 54 votes. There being no major ity of all the votes cast the convention concluded that under the rule it would be impossible to make a selection, therefore the rule was changed, which provided that the high man be declar- ed the nominee and that another vote be taken between the two low men. The vote resulted, Potts 56, Stephens AS, NcNeely 46. Potts was then de- clared the nominee and another vote was had to decide between McNeely and Stephens. The vote resulted, | McNeely 34, Stephens Az, and Steph- ems was declared the nominee of the
