CAMP AICN FOR
1912 STARTED
Reorganization of Young
Mems Republican Club.

Following the election of officers
last night at the reorganization
meeting of the Young Mems Repub-
lican Club. plans were discussed for
opening the 1912 campaign with an
increased club membership and af-
fecting a more permanent organtza-
tion. AT the present time the mem
bership, which is large, supports the
club financially by voluntary contri-
buttons. 1t is purposed that new
members be added and uniform dues
collected, and to forward this propo-
sition a motion was carried to the ef-
feet that the newly elected president,
Harry R. Wilson, appoint member
ship committee of six to consum-
mate these plans The personnel
of the committe ewill be announced
in few days, President Wilson an
nouneed.
George J. Haney raised the mem
bership question and was seconded
by many other prominent members
of the club. Mr.. Haney also called
attention to the absence of many
older and more experienced voters
of the Republican party who would
gladly join, he asserted, If extended
personal invitations. The member
ship and executive committees were
assigned to follow these suggestions
and endeavor to mold the club into
on all-powerful city organization.
John Pfeiffer, Chairman of the Re-
publican County Committee, moved
that a membership committee be ap-
pointed, which was seconded by AS
semblyman John F. Ten Brock.
H. r.. Wilson New President.
AS stated, Harry r. Wilson was
elected president to succeed James
e. Griswold, who declined another
term. In stepping down from the
chair of presiding officer, Mr.. Girls
wold made few remarks of ap-
probation of the support given by
all In the 1911 campaign and as
sured the members that the next
year bids far more promising, from
q Republican standpoint of view.
President Griswold reassured the
audience that last nights meeting
was not called for the purpose of
discussing state or national politics,
but to re-organize for the coming
year.
Mr. Griswold called for nomina-
tion for president and the name of
Morgan f. Larson was presented.
Mr.. Larson declined the honor, stat
ing that the new Office might con-
fict with his duties as president of
the Fourth Ward Republican Club.
Mr.. Wilson was then nominated and
unanimously elected. The only op-
position noted was for the Office OF

known as the Roosevelt Commit
tee. This committee will forward the
interests of Teddy" and endeavor
to elect Adrian Lyon at the May pri-
maries as the delegate from this
county, Mr.. Griswo1d stated today.
A petition Is now in circulation en-
dorsing Mr.. Lyon for this position.
necessary to secure one hundred or
more signers.
Judge Lyon Not to Withdraw.
Judge Lyon said In an interview
today that he does not propose to
withdraw from the race because sew
eral leaders are opposed to the
Roosevelt candidacy. Although he
was unwittingly brought into the To-
cal campaign, Mr.. Lyon says, he does
not intend to back down" In the
leaders interests. Mr.. Griswold ex-
presses himself in like manner, say
ing. "Well, / know that 1t means
political suicide. but I have the
courage of my convictions" 1t is
said that number of Republicans in
this city favor Roosevelt, but will
not publicly express their senti-
ments for fear of incurring the lead
ers' displeasure.
John Hanson Not In Line.
It was at first reported that John
Hanson, Of this city, who was the
defeated Republican candidate for
sheriff last November, would be
chosen by the Taft forces for the del
egateship. but this he denied today
and passed the honor along to Con-
gresham Howell Mr.. Hanson is
wearing a Taft button, however, and
will work hard for the president, he
says. Political followers will note
the complexed nature of things in the
Taft forces Senator Strong and Mr..
Carson have for many years lead OPP
posing factions in the Republican
party, but it as announced recently
that the split had been healed,
for this year, at least. Congress
man Howell is considered promi-
nent member Of the Carson faction.
