Democratic Convention.

DelesdteS 10 the democratic county
convention met at the Farmers Club
room In the court house at IL O'Clock
this Saturday morning in response to
call. By reason of the small amount
Of work to be done and a number of
the township delegations not having
arrived in the city, adjournment was
taken to one o'clock p m. -
County Chairman Tracy Osborne
of New Sharon was in the chair. No
preliminary business was transacted.
Tracy Osborne was retained as
chairman at the after dinner session,
which began business promptly at
one o'clock. Harry E. Davis was
made secretary and the convention
was down to business without prelim-
inaries.
On motion the roll call of townships
was started to select one delegate
from each to select fifteen delegates
to the Cedar Rapids state convention
July Gath. This would take consid-
cradle time and motion was substi-
tuted to have the chair appoint com.
mittee Of five to make selection.
The delegates named by this com.
mittee were unanimously elected by
the convention:
Black Oak, A. T.. Van der Wall.
Cedar, Berry Aldrich.
East Des Moines, B. F. McFall.
East Garfield. B. F. Harbour.
West Des Moines, Owen Reilly.
West Jefferson. Leroy Wharton.
Madison, M. s. Downey.
Second ward, S. V. Reynolds.

Fourth ward, Charles E. Munroe.
Prairie, Neal McCutcheon.
Pleasant Grove, E. M. Rugg.

While the convention was awaiting
the action of the committee several
brief but red hot talks were made by
S. V. Reynolds. John T. Ream, John
L. Brown and MILFORD Hull, and point
ed remarks were heard from others.
Resolution offered by s. v. Rey-
nolds was adopted by the convention

district for the office of representative
of the dictrict.

egates to the Cedar Rapids conven-
ton be instructed to cast the vote of
Mahaska county for L. s. Remington
of Newton as the Sixth district mem
Der of the democratic state central
committee.
Talks were called for following the
business of the convention, but the
disposition of the crowd was to ad-
iourn to be able to watch the bulletin
boards telling of the democratic ma
tional convention at work in Balti-
more.
Following adjournment the county
central committee was called in ses-
sion with the candidates to take up
their business.

each letter tied with a little white
bow; then the GROWING part of the
decoration was a large picture Of
Frances Willard. All this created a
feeling of unity, sweet fellowship and
welcome among the visiting dele.
gates.
One new feature in the 9th dis.
trict convention this year was the
young peoples work. On the first
afternoon of the convention, time
was given for the explanation of this
work.
Mrs. Jessie T. Williams, state SUI.
perintendent of the Y. P. B., gave a
report of he work done in the dis
trict, and. also made an earnest plea
for every union to organize a branch.
A symposium was conducted by
Miss Ada Conover, who is superin.
tendent of the Y. P. b. OF Oskaloosa.
She painted a most beautiful word
picture of the Present and Prospect
i've View of the Y. P. B." To con-
clude her symposium she demonstrate
ed the work with some of her Y. p.
B. girls by giving the following pro-
grom:
An Instrumental Solo, Miss Marie
Walthall.
A Temperance Reading, Miss Mir
lam Kelsey.
A Vocal Duet, Misses Fallberg and
Stewart.
The state president, Mrs. Eta 3.
Hurford, who is loved by all, was
helpful in many ways at the conven-
ton. Her heart to heart talk on the
subject, Condolences Between Moth
err and Daughter" was much appre.
ciated and her address on Thursday
evening was filled with instruction
and earnestness.
The debate, Resolved, that woman
should have the right of franchise"
aroused an undue amount of interest.
The affirmative won two votes while
the negative had to content them
selves with one.
The Young Peoples Branch of Bea-
con was not represented until Friday,
but when the delegates appeared the
convention realized that Beacon, as
well as Oskaloosa, had live, wide
awake young peoples Branch. Their
report of work accomplished since
organization in January was beyond
expectation, and when read by one
of the delegates received hearty ap.
plause from the convention.
The following district officers were
elected:
District President, Mrs. C. E. Bar
nard of Oskaloosa.
District Vice President, Mrs. E. Ell.
len Bond, of New Sharon.
District Secretary, Mrs. r. E. Meek
er, of New Sharon.
District Treasurer, Mrs. Mary e.
Reiner, of Buckeye.
A gold medal contest was held the
last evening of the convention under
the auspices of the District Superin.
tendent of contest work, Mrs. c. E.
Barnard. Chase Conover of Oska.
loosa won the medal.
The music for the contest was fur.
nished by members of the Oskaloosa
Y. P. B., Misses Susie Edwards, Mir
lam Kelsey, Marie Walthall, Esther
Fallberg and Ruth Stewart.
1t was a great success.

The Allison Monument

The commission having the duty of
erecting the Allison monument on the
capitol grounds in Des Moines is hav.
ing some difficulty making a decision
as to where 1t is to be located. The
law provides for erection on the
grounds of the state house or some ex,
tension thereof. There is serious OBJ.
lection to having the grounds of the
state house covered with monuments
and memorials and this plan has al.
ready been abandoned. The river
front location is not possible and
would be inappropriate.

Republican Convention,

The business Of the republican coun-
ty convention, which was held in the
court room, was transacted with dis
patch. A. p. Norton, chairman Of
the republican county central COM
mittee, called the assembly together
little after II a. m. He made the
necessary announcements, and stated
that the committee had selected as
temporary officers:
John o. Malcolm, chairman.
Phil Hoffman,, secretary.
Mr.. Malcolm waived the custom Of
a speech by the temporary chairman
and plunged Immediately into the
business at hand.
On motion of James A. Dewitt, duly
seconded, the temporary officers were
made permanent by unanimous vote.
Mr.. Malcolm then called attention
to the fact in fitting terms that Ma
haska county has candidate for the
nomination of supreme Judge in the
person of Judge Byron w. Preston.
He suggested that 1t would be emf
nently proper for the convention to
take recognition OF this matter.
Thereupon Major Lacey offered the
following resolution which was adopt
ed by unanimous vote: -.
Believing that Judge Preston
is in every way qualified for JUS
tice of the Supreme Court, we en-
dorse his candidacy, and we urge
the delegates from this county to
use all honorable means to bring
about his nomination.
1--WE authorize and request him
to suggest to this convention the
names of seventeen persons for
delegates to the State convention
July 10, 1912, and when so pre-
scented such names shall be and
constitute the delegates from this
county" e.. r
Carrying out the will of the above
resolution, Mr.. Dewitt arose in behalf
Of Judge Preston and offered the fol.
lowing names as delegates from Ma
haska county to the State convention
to be held in Des Moines on Wednes-
day, July 10. 1912.
