Wright, chairman of the republican county central committee, every precinct wa rep resented by a full quota of delegate ex cept Kane, outside the city, which failed to hold it primary and select th one, del egate to which it waa entitled. After read ing the call Mr. Wright announced Attor ney Oeorge H. Mayne a temporary chair man and the convention selected Charles Atwood a temporary secretary. On as suming th gavel Chairman Mayne laid h would refrain from making a apeech, as there were bo Issues at present to talk about. The convention then got down to business and named the following com mittees: , Credentials A. E. Klnkald, Lay ton; W. H. Freeman, Belknap: Milton Osier, Grove; I. P. Kelly. Neola; F. H.

A recess wa taken for twenty mlnutu In the belief that thla would prov ample time in which for the commltteea to formu late their reports. When noon arrived, how ever, the committee on credential wa not ready . to report, ao the convention ad journed until 1:30. ' On the convention reassembling th com mittee on credential reported that there wire contesting delegations from Boomer township and recommended' that both dele gations be given seat In th convention and permitted to cast on and a halt votes ech, th township being entitled to three vote. Th report and suggestion were con curred in and the temporary organisation wa mad permanent on th recommenda tion of the committee on permanent organi sation. No urprls wa manifested when ' th committee on resolution ubmttted it re port without including an antl-thlrd-term resolution. It wa generally understood that the agitation in thl respect had been killed off during the early hour of the morning before th convention. A toon the resolutions reported by the commit tee hsd been adopted Frank Turner of Knox township offered the resolution endorsing the renomlnatlon of Hon. O. D. Wheeler for Judge of the district court, which wa en thusiastically adopted. The committee on delegate having presented It list for the state, congressional and Judicial conven tions, which proved agreeable to th con vention, the work of placing the ticket in nomination wa begun. Paul Beerley of Oakland started the ball rolling by auggeetlng that R, V. Inne be renominated for county auditor by acclama tion and thl wa done.

Bayles, 15. , The first formal ballot showed that II. V. Battey, deputy clerk of the court at Avoca and candidate from the east end of the county had the solid vote of the delegation from Orove, Knox, Lay ton, Lincoln, Macedonia and Pleasant town ship, but little strength In the city. The ballot resulted In Reed Just missing the nomination by one vote, the vote being: Reed, 85; Baird, JT7H; Battey, 41; Styles, ; Brown, 9. On the ssoond formal ballot Battey drew from Baird and Brown, but failed to beat Reed, th nomination going to him with 87H vote, as against 61H for Battey, Baird receiving 10, Brown 6 and Saylea 8. Elmer E. Smith had a walkaway for re nomlnatlon for county recorder, as on th Informal ballot he received 154 vote, against fourteen cast for B. H. Bailey of Loveland and six for TL H. Williams ef this city. On motion the informal ballot wa mad a formal on and Smith declared the nominee. Then .followed the nomination for county attorney and It took two formal ballot to settle It. Th Informal ballot gave W. H. KUlpack, present Incumbent of the office, 79; C. P. Kimball, present assistant county attorney, 61, and John M. Oalvtn 88. The Informal ballot developed th fact that Klllpack'a strength lay in the) coun try precinct, while Kimball had the best of it in the city. The first formal ballot resulted a follow: Klllpack, 85; Kim ball, 62; Galvln, 84. The second formal ballot gave the nomination to KUlpack with nlnety-four vote, a against fifty five for Kimball and twenty-four for Gal vln. Allen Bullls and Henry C.
