delegates to the provisions of Art. 8.
Sec. 1 of the rules of the state democ-
racy, which require that the election
of state central committeeman and
committeewomen be by ballot. He
urged that such action had not been
taken, that the previous supposed
election had not been according to
the rules and that therefore Mesa
county would have no legal repre-
sentation ON the state committee. He
advised that the error be corrected
at that time before it was too late.
Points of Order.
Points of order by DR.. Green and
Mr.. Bucklin were interjected to the
effect that ballot" meant any form
of vote not viva voce, that ii was too
late to do any different, and that it
did not make any difference anyway
In opposing the points of order Mr..
Wheeler declared that this was the
same convention that had taken the
previous action, that no session of the
state committee had been held and
that such action would be the proper
thing at the present time. The chair
man was then called upon to rule on
the points and he cleared the -atmos-
phere by ruling that this was the
had been by ballot but that this CON
vention could reconsider its former
action if it SO desired. A motion to
reconsider was subordinated to one
to lay on the table which carried,
thus shelving the matter in dispute
Would BE Boss Bobs Up.
In the meantime Bucklin had been
fidgeting in his seat as if he had
something on his mind and he took
early occasion to rise to a question of
privilege. This being granted he
launched forth into an excited declar-
alton of his democracy" an at
tempted explanation of the fight at
the state convention and an attack on
The Daily Sentinel. He insisted that
he had been a supporter of Judge
Wheeler's candidacy all through the
fracas and seemed to feel peevish be-
cause The Sentinel had cast asper-
sions upon his motives and actions
at the state convention especially re-
garding the knitting of Wheeler by
the Bucklin contingent.
Denounces Sentinel.
This whole thing" declared Buck
lin, lis only a republican trap orig
mated in the office of their morning
paper and into which The Sentinel
has fallen. But then we don't pay
any attention TO Inc SeHtlUel IN tHlS
anyway 1t is of no account
only an alleged democratic sheet"
Rozzelie Roasts Him.
Jos. Rozzelle was on his feet as
soon as Bucklin concluded and de-
clared nat had he (Bucklin) made
the same speech regarding Wheeler
before the state convention met that
he had then. there would have been
no doubt of Wheeler being the candi-
date for supreme judge. Bucklin tried
to interrupt Rozzelle but was called
down by the chairman. RoZZefie
then explained that 1t was due to the
action of the Bucklin followers at the
state convention that Wheeler was
not chosen. lie cited the instance of
the vote on the endorsement of
j. Hughes for United States
senator, when fourteen noes from
Mesa county almost drowned cut the
of "ayes" for Hughes who
was the only person in nomination.
He said that it was at. least unfair
and lost Wheeler the iudgsnip nomi-
nation. b.
Woods Gets Noisy.
J. S. Woods. a Bucklin supporter,
almost lost his temper in rising to
point of order against Rozzelle, and
in few minutes matters might have
reached a stage where generalitfes
would become personalities, but, Mr..
Weiser. seeing profitless argument
