; George A. Westgate. chairman of the
- Republican state central committee, haa
refused to call a tate convention for
the nomination , pt a state Republican
. ticket tor the election of June next and
because of this' refusal Js now being
urged to realm hia office In order that
another matt more In harmony with the
plans, of rthpromotera oi the scheme
may be given the place. Incidentally
Senator-Fulton and hle-'poHtlcal asso
ciatea are much aet against the con
vention Idea for fear that should suoh
a convention be called It would result
In the selection of H. M. Cake aa the
senatorial candidate of the convention
lor nomination in the primaries of April.
For aome time past Max G. Cohen,
(secretary of the Union Republican club,
which ia boosting the convention plan
for Multnomah county; C. M. Idleman,
. new chairman of the county central com
mittee, and other associated with the
two organizations, have been- urging the
state chairman to call a atate con yen-
llnn In "Inrinina" a. state Republican
ticket for the June election. They have
urged Mr. Westgate to can a atate con
vention not later than January 15 for
the purpose of formulating .the ticket,
hoping thus to Jump In ahead of other
candidates who may be Intending to
make the race'for the various offices
now open for vote. -, ...
Back to Old System.
The" plan .of these gentlemen Is wide
spread and outlines a sweeping return
to the old convention system, of select
ing candidates for' office, It embraces
the, holding ef county conventions to
fill up the . ;county., -tickets with - ."In
dorsed" candidates, as well as the se
lection of a slate for the state ticket.
. Because (State Chairman. Westgate has
wp.to thla time refused to call a State
""convention the leaders who are urging
the plan are becoming solicitous -concerning
hia relinquishment of the chair
manship. They are not going to him
with the bald contention that he ought
to resign because he will not call a
convention, but are urging it on other'
grounds. . . , ,
They are pointing out to the chair
man that alnce his appointment to the
federal ;. office of surveyor-general he
cannot continue to hold the position of
chairman of the central committee. It
would be for the best lntereata of the
party, .therefore, .they contend, for Mr.
: westgate to ate? down in order that a

who will be at the head of the commit
tee when the campaign opena and there
of ore In touch with all things political
from the first
Inability to find a man who will Just
fit into the position, however, la hold
ing the leadera back from becoming
more strenuous In their demands than
they are. What la wanted ia a man who
favors the convention plan and who at
the same time would' be able to organ
... Me the campaign on a winning1 basis.
Benator Fulton's frienda and sup
porters look upon . the scheme with an
unfriendly .eye. They (believe that thi
scheme is being thought out largely in
the interests of H. M. Cake, who is e
lpected to become a senatorial candidate
Sin the near future. Color ia lent to
their argument by the withdrawal of
W. M. Cake from the chairmanship of
jjlhe Multnomah county central commit
tee and the elevation of C M. Idleman
who approves of the convention, to tlia
chairmanship. ,
What Mr. Westgate will do is a mat
ter r much speculation in political
circles, for unless he does resign he
.(.Hi), an -tiimhltnir block In til Wa V
of the scheme. Either a change of,.
heart or a change of chairman- is neces
sary for 'the success of the plan and
since Mr. Westgate has steadily refused
to. chants his mind it Is believed that
the only hope of success lies
change of chairman. ,

1After a good deal of beating about the

Burkhart then wanted to know : where

In the discussion, but would have Vto

time t4 consider the matter, and at last
concluded to take the step, leavlng-tiosa
to take his chances. He returned to the
district attorney's office ready to take
his immunity bath, but Mr. Manning
had changed his mind in the meantime

Boise, Ida., Jan. 2. Further requests
for Instructions were presented by boh
sides In tae Pettlbone case today, re
quiring an adjournment until tomorrow
in order that authorities on them --might
be examined by Judas Wood. The de-
fcfense asked that the Jury, be instructed
mai tne veraict or not guilty in tne
Haywood case made It' impossible to re
turn a verdict of guilty in this case. If
the (evidence shows that Haywood and
Pcttibone were parties to the same con
spiracy, If any existed. The state re
quested an Instruction to the effect that
if the defendant had in his possession
facts not testified to, either by himself
or otherwise, this fact might be con
sidered by the jury.
The prosecution has decided to pre
sent arguments on the case and James
II. Hawley, chief counsel for the state,
will make the first address to the jury.
It is not the present plan of the defense.
Judge Hilton said, to argue the case at
all, but should this plan be changed,
Senator Borah will close for the state.
Judge Wood announced that he desirel
that the case go to the jury this week
and night sessions will be held if neces
sary. A large crowd gathered in the court
room this morning expecting to see an
end of the trial. Pettlbone appeared
very weak, but stated that he was
slowly improving. Me was returned to
the hospital after court adjourned.
