Senator A Caminetti of Jackson adj
dressed the convention and in very
clear manner explained the platform
upon which the county fight would be
waged. At the conclusion of the adj
dress, the convention was brought to
close.
A. Caminetti read a disjointed re-
mort of the committee on platform.
We are unable to present the text
thereof, as 1t was not in shape for the
printer and have been unable to secure
COPY since. 1t opposed the pending
bond issue of 10000 900 for state
highways, and Asiatic immigration,
and a lot of other things. The con-
vention did not have an opportunity tc
pass upon the completed platform SC
we persume it will make its appear
ance later on as the voice of local
democracy.
There were only % delegates pre-
sent. AS a whole the gathering was
lifeless one, as might be expected
when the matter of selecting candi
dates is taken from the convention.
