Arizona republican., 1912-06-27

The majority report from the com
 mittee rules proposed to recognize the
 state conventions so as to apply the
 unit rule. The minority report urged
 by the Wilson people, proposed to ab
 rOgate the rule.
 A chorus of misses and boos greeted
 the announcement of Senator Stone
 that Missouri. Champ Clark's state cast
 twenty nine votes against the minority
 report modifying the unit rule which
 would favor the Wilson forces. Seven
 Missouri delegates voted aye. A round
 of cheers swept the hall as Bryans
 state Nebraska voted solid sixteen ayes
 for the Wilson report. An uprOar
 swept the hall as the clerk called New
 York. The delegates rose in their plac-
 es and watched Charles F. Murphy as
 he rose to make the announcement
 New York votes ninety noes" He
 said and there was chorus of misses
 jeers and cheers.
 Williams of Mississippi took the platform to speak for the minority
 Governor Brewer of Mississippi strode
 down the aisle and interrupted the
 speaker to ask whether Senator Will Hams, who had decla red that a dele gate should abide by the instructions given him in the primary, did not believe that the vote of the entire state at large should control only the delegates at large. Williams in sisted that the delegates at large from the primary state should be bound by the majority in the state and that the district delegates should hNv hn fYia iar i+x- vote. The state convention could not claim control over district delegates elected by the people.
 If you adopt the majority re- port here tonight" concluded Will Hams you will do the most danger ous. most damnable thing that it is in your power to do. And when you get through doing it you might as we'll quit your talk about popular government and referring matters back to the people"
