REPUBLICANS IN BAD ROW
Possibility of All Sorts of Trouble in
Today's Convention With
Bolt Likely.

The mixup in the Republican ranks
since the primaries Wednesday night and
possibilities of a row at the county con-
vention today formed the basis for much
talk. Yesterday the machine managers
showed but little concern over the situa-
ton and pretended to act as if the whole
squabble was but a passing shadow
prominent member of the ring stated
yesterday that as far as the Huntsville
muddle was concerned the delegation
headed by Fred Schade would be seated.
If this is done and the threat made is
carried out there will be bolt headed
by the Mckay faction from Huntsville
and this is likely to carry a number of
other delegates with it. This action it is
stated, would mean the placing of an in
dependent ticket in the field this fall and
greatly increase tie chances of success
for the Democratic county ticket
A. K. Haywood will be temporary chair
man of the convention. Miss Rae Keck
deputy in the office of County Clerk Da-
vid Mattson, will be named as secretary
of the temporary organization. While
Miss Keck will be made permanent secre-
tary. Judge Haywood will be succeeded
by William Craig. who was defeated for
the mayoralty at the last city election
Ii is said that an effort will be made
to have the convention go on record as
opposing Senator Sutherland on account
of the stand taken by him in connection
with the selection of headquarters for the
forestry service, which was recently To-
Gated in this city.

EMERY'S COLORED
SPOTTER NAbbED
Police Sweat Negro Stool
Pigeon Assisting in Sheriff's
Purity Crusade.
SITUATION IS STRAINED
POLITICAL ANlMUS OF MOVE
MENT BECOMES APPARENT.

An incident which was declared by
many to illustrate the unsavory charac-
ter of the political play in which the sher
ifs force and the police department are
arrayed against each other with fallen
women as the bone of contention took
place last evening.
l.. w. Winston. who is said to have as
sisted the sheriff's purity squad in the
red light crusade, was run into police
headquarters last night as suspicious
character and put on the grill by police
officials.
Though he was released after being
thoroughly questioned, Winston, who is
colored. asserted that he was taken into
custody because of the desire of the po-
lice department. Ito take a crack at him"
for assisting Sheriff Emery's men. He
said he is the victim of the police depart
ments displeasure and that he will be
prosecuted on the slightest pretext.
Police officials who were interviewed by
Herald reporter insisted that Winston
was questioned because he resembed@the
description or man wanted for a shoot
ing scrape in Pueblo Winston declared
that the shooting scrape" charge was
trumped mp by the police that they might
question him in regard to his connection
with the sheriffs eforce.
Winston. who has been citizen of Salt
Lake the past two years, was employed
at the Hotel Knutsford as a waiter until
Wednesday. He left his position there II
rs said. in order that he might cooperate
with Sheriff Emery in tipping his men Oft
to the characters in the underworld of
whom they were in search.
Neither Sheriff Emery nor Winston
who lives at No. 2i0 East Fifth South
street would deny that the colored man
was abetting the sheriff's red light squad.
Sheriff Emery did admit that he had re-
ceived communication from Mr. Win
ston recently.
The war on the underworld denizens
was waged merrily again yesterday and
last night. and two more unfortunate
women fell into the hands of Sheriff EN-
erys men. They were arrested in u
rooming house as Migrants
Sheriff Emery and Deputy Sheriff But
Ter made the arrests at O'Clock in the
afternoon.
Search for Eva Johnson. who slipped
through the grasp of Sheriff Emery's men
while she was being carried back to the
county Jail after arraignment In Justice
Blshops court, was continued all day,
but without avail The sheriff's officers
express their confidence that they will vet
round her up.

circular sent out by Mr. Van
Cleave July Is last was read in part. II
referred TO the efforts in congress to
procure labor legislation and in the
Chicago convention to obtain endorse
ment of that effort as revolutionary
and anti-American."
The circular concluded that it was
the duty of business men to bury
Bryan and Organism under such an
avalanche of votes that IL would not
nave to be done over again in 1872"
and Mr.. Gompers declared the appeal
was simply due TO the blind hallu-
cination of Mr.. Van Cleave"
He added:
More Politics.
myself are interested in the present DO
litical campaign not because we are
Democrats or Republicans. but because
the Democratic party has adopted a
declaration that If placed in power it
VIII remedy the discrimination prac-
ticed against working people of the
country"
Mr.. Davenport again objected to the
character of the inquiry, declaring il
to be prostitution of privilege and
unworthy of attorneys practicing be-
the District of Columbia.
He asked If the testimony was Of
fered in good faith"
Mr.. Ralston replied that il was.
MIR. Gompers, again being ques-
toned. declared that he had not been
actuated by motives of personal malice
toward Mr.. Van Cleave in his editorial
and other utterances respecting him.
He claimed the constitutional right to
the free expression of his opinion: that
neither congress nor the courts had
power to limit the freedom of speech
or of the press" and that the present
proceeding was an unwarranted effort
to deny such freedom.
Attorney Was impairment.
Under crosS-examination, Mr.. Com
pers made a statement concerning
document offered, and in response to a
question by Mr.. Davenport, said that
he was testifying from his own knowl-
edge.
do you make that statement under
the responsibility Of your oath?" asked
Mr.. Davenport.
THAT is an impertinent question, and
decline to answer" responded Mr.
Gompers.
Twice more Mr.. Davenport repeated
the question. and each time Mr.. Com
pers denounced 1t as impertinent and
refused to answer.
You are not obliged to answer in
suits" Mr.. Ralston instructed his wit
ness, and with that advice excused
him from further cross-questioning.
The hearing will be continued tomor-
row.
