REPUBLICAN CONVENTION ADJ0URNS

Home This Evening to- Take Needed Rest

Las Vegas, NM, Sept. 30.-The
pent up floods of oratory broke yes
terday afternoon and last evening,
and the convention was deluged with
flowery nominating speeches that
kept the tired delegates in session un-
til o'clock this morning.
After working seventy hours con-
tinuously at caucus, committee and
convention, very little attention was
paid to these oratorical efforts but
calls of time" in attention and witty
side remarks lailed to stop the flow
of words.
While this did not change single
vote nor nominate single candidate
the orators seemed to feel better
after they had relieved them selves
of their message.
And what host of orators there
are in the republican party. If elo-
quence alone can win a campaign, the
ticket is elected from top to bottom
by majority Of at least $4,000 votes.
But unfortunately on the Demo
cratic side there IS said to be j1st

1t took just two and half minutes
