REPUBLICANS HOLD CONVEN-
TION WEDNESDAY EVE

Wednesday afternoon the repub-
licans were out in full force and
gala attire. They had a band which
one prominent republican stated
had been brought here from Homo
lulu at great expense tO the party.
We believe this republican was suf-
lerlng from uVerenthusiaSm but at
any rate they had q band. and the
band rendered good music
Al two clock the convention was
called to order at the courthouse.
There were so many republicans
and spectators present that the
room proved Inadequate, they over
flowed into the hallway and ante
rooms
The afternoon session was deVot-
ed to addresses and the appoint
ment of the various committees.
The evening session. at which the
real business of the convention was
taken up. was held in the high
school auditorium. and the room
was filled TO capacity when the
| hour arrived.
Two committee reports were read
and approved The report of the
committee on permanent Organiza-
ton precipitated row which result
ed in the convention rejecting the
recommendation of the committee.
| despite the able defense conducted
| by Attorney EasterwoOd. The per-
manent chairman, Don Eufracio
| GallegOS then announced that nom
nations were in order.
The following ticket was the re-
suit Of the ballOting:
For senator: L. T.. Mitchell of AL
bert.
For representatives: Ray Sutton
of Clayton. and Malaquis Baca of
Santa Fe, Santa Fe county.
For sheriff: John w. Hammers of

: For surveyor: A. C. Loveless of

! For county chairman: H. H. Er-
rett of Clayton
For secretary: A. C. Miera of

The business of the convention
was delayed in several instances
/ by inability to secure men willing
/ to accept the nomination.
In one instance after several in
cffcctual attempts had been made.
/ the name of a lady was offered for
! treasurer. A discussion brought 10
/ light the fact that the lady could
not qualify under the laws. and
1 further discussion developed the
additional fact that the lady has
been for some time a resident of
( the state Of Arkansas.
However, the ticket finally named
is composed of good men, true re-
pubicans, and will come as near
/ bringing home the bacon at the
coming election as it is possible for
republican ticket to do, which
statement will bring no uneaSiness
10 the ranks Of the democrats of
