The candidates when solicited as
to how they desired to be nominated,
after consultation, declared for pri-
mary of known republicans, to be
held Saturday, March 6, with an Of
ficer, and two judge,clerks at each
voting precinct to hold said primary.
The News on motion and second
was recognized as official organ of
the republican party in Marion coun-
county.
During the interims there were
quite Il number of speeches made by
prominent republicans, among them
D. A. Tate. J. J, Dykes, N. F.
Thomas, and others. Bill Tate,s son of
D. A. Tate, in short but excellent
speech, SAID he expected to cast his
first vote in November for republi-
can for president, Colored speakers
were A. +. Shockley and DR.. w. j.
Astrapp, the colored republicans hav-
ing held session in morning.
Nine subscriptions were secured
at the convention for the National
Republican, the great republican pa
per, which is teaching the people the
issues of the day. The work for the
National Republican is being con-
Quoted by w. c. Hill, who is coun,
ty agent foI the paper, which is un-
for brilliancy and brain
Mr.. Hill desires one thousand repub-
licans IN this county to order the Ma
tional Republican sent to them.
During the session good feeling
was prevalent, only one little incl
dent occurring, but 1t passed as a leaf
flutters from the lofty top of a forest
Several times the cheer
ing knowledge came out that leading
democratic and independent voters
Of the county stood ready to assist
the republicans in their fight for A
merlca, saying that they stood ready
to assist with their vote or in any
way possible. A prominent bank
official of the county, democrat
as well as prominent
ex-soldier, a son of a confederate
veteran, are now enthusiastic repub-
ians, realizing that as solid, sensible
men that there must be change in
he officials of this government Nov
ember next, to allow this country to
become once more a free America,
with firm allegiance to American
deals.
d. A. Tate was live wire in the
and worked for Littleton
He is live wire in .any-
hing he undertakes anyway, and
seemed to be putting his best efforts
nto the convention.
