WILLIAMSON
2 ?
3, V. Williamson of Crook County la the
nominee of the Bpubhcana of the Second
. district for Congressman. It waji practlc
ally decjded yesterday that uob would Im
the result of jtho convention today. Early
lu the morning; the friends of Congress
man Moody stated JKa their man was HO
longer in the fight,' and virtually decided
not to present his name to the conven
tion. .. -.. - -
The meeting was a harmonious one.
There -were no trace of bitterness in the
ranks of the Moody followers, nor ftid
the Williamson workers ehow any undue
txultatloh. Had it not been that a con
testing delegation was present from Har
ney County, the work of the convention
oould have been done in a half hour.
No committee on resolutions was ap
pointed. This was' the Judgment of Mr.
Williamson. He eaid the entire state
knew hts position, on the queetlorta of
the leasing of public lands and, he did not
ieslre the Western Oregonlans to think
he people from the cow counties rode a
nobby to the convention. " - y;': .'
USURPED THE AHMOR?. r '
Delegates were- slow In gathering at
Armory Hall. The action of the caucus
f the Multnomah delegates last night in
lc)Ungr to support J. N. Williamson,, ot
PHiievlue, as a unit, removed most of the
Interest from the proceedings, and from
the moment the delegates began to gath
er in front of the Armory it was apparent
that all was over, except the applause.
.Before the convention was called to or
lor. what oromlsed to be a lively difficulty
arose over the use of the Armory. Colo-
net Everett, of the Third regiment, want
ed to know by what authority the Repub
licans took possession of the building.
This trouble was soon dissolved, as it was
found that the committee on arrange
ments had failed to provide any place for
the convention, and the Armory was
Hgreed upon by common consent, without
authority. -i
