Dr. .Snilth, plnee his belated announce

doctrine," Has been, making a strong
fight tot the nomination afid by many,
even yet, Ke Is. believed to be the aeo
ond candidate in the race. Others place
Dr. Wlthyoombe In second place.
' Bowerman people contend : that their
candidate will have something like 100
votes to spare on the first ballot But
It Is a case of Bowerman against the
field, with Smith. Ackerman. Wlthy-

against him, so that the result is In

Moorea is also drawing votes from, the
upper valley, while Ackerman does the

and there throughout the state, particu

Again, many of Bowerman' votes ai
not tied to him for any long siege. of
! voting. Wlthycombe, it 1 believed, will
be' stronger on the first hajiot man
thereafter, because many of his votes
are complimentary. Smith has lost

with close. to 1000 delegates in attend

v with the exception of Curry. . .
i 1L C. George, chairman pf the Ke-
iuvf4i;au . mku veil.... vv"..v.i
caUed .the' meeting to order. He said
, that it had been found best in all great
undertakings to open Important meet
ings: by Invoking the divine blessing
on the acts of the meeting and he
(Sailed on C B. Cllne to deliver the In
tonation. .'.: ?i
i Cllne returned thanks for "this great
est gathering of the best citizenship
Of this goodly state,'! and asked that
blessing descend on the efforts of the
delegates, and that the ticket be a suo
cejicful one. When .he closed the con
vention tittered. ' ' : . '
j fhairman George said It was a great
honor to officiate on an occasion when
tht Republican party of the state was
once more united.. The convention, he
said was the finest representation of
ljhj Republican party ever gathered to
cether in Oregon. The meeting waa
lnnr overdue and was in direct accord
ance with, the constitution of the state
and the letter and spirit of the direct
primary law.
(i " Direct Trom people. ,
r Z he delegates had, come direct from
the people.
; No man could say it was an unlawful
assemblage. , t . . , ,
W, C, Bristol was nominated for tem
porary chairman, and, upon motion of
JL. W. ' coe, , his-,nominatioir was made
unanimous. Chairman George' introduced
- Bristol as "The Little Giant of Oregon."
and the Jatter at-once frowned at the
convention, told them he -wanted them to
help- him keep order, and got down to
business.-' r --- -y
" While 'Chalrmari Bristol was fixing up
hi Committers on credentials and, per
manent organisation and resolutions and
platform, C. N. McArthur served as tem
porary chairman and called . on a big
list of old day convention- warhorses to
entertain the delegates with speeches.
I Walter U,:Tooze was called upon, lie
got mixed up a little la his quotations
when he gave definitions of Democrats
and Republicans. He said that Champ
Clark had defined a Democrat as a
man who voted the Democratic ticket
. and supported . Democratic principles.
falnng to remember that Vice President
Sherman-had given the converse of, the
statement as the definition of a, Repub-
llonn.i Anyway, Tooxe got there by ending-
ln good shape with Vice President
Sherman's definition of a Republican aa
his own.
"Uka Old Times"
Theo., Cameron of Jackson county Said
that "This looks like old times.", and
that he waa glad 'he waa there. .
Statement No. 1 came in for a couple
of knocks. C. W.. Fulton ; saylnr that
there was opposition to- it : George W.
Stapleton said the same thing, but E. W. I
Conyers put the thing In a more concrete ,
shape by contending that he would
Mil nvaDnw him f nhcti-fA tn 1
swallow Statemept No. V r
It la probable that there will " be a
. fight in the convention this afternoon
over the adoption of -resolutions con
demning Statement No, 1 and declaring
for the repeal of that section of the pri
mary law containing Statement No. 1.
The radical delegate! are demanding !
p 1 such action,' but the conservative mem-1
'" bers of the convention are fighting ,
against the move, preferring to straddle
the question for fear that it would
wreck the chances of the ticket to take
an open and official stand against the
principle of direct " eleotlon of United
States senators. "
by acclamation. C. V, Johnson of Ben
ton, C. A. Johns of Eakcr and Dr. Coe
escorted Bristol to the platform.
Bristol made only a few remarks, tell
ing how proud he was to have been
chosen. Y. " M. Datls of Multnomah
nominated Lansing Stout for secretary,
but O. W. Eastham, speaking for the
Clackamas delegation, said that county
wanted to be considered, and he nom
'inated John H. Gibson, who was chair,
man of the tumultuous county assem
bly at Oregon City last wetek. . Davis
withdrew the name of Stout and Gib
son was chosen. E. V. Llttlef leld and
F. Alkus were appointed assistant sec
retaries. . i ' "
Calls on Warhorses. .
Bennett of Coos demanded recognition
of the -county delegations in' the choice
of the credentials committee. Heijald
this would give the assembly, people
more courage in. "harnessing the Demo
cratic cougar in a new kimono." - Lit
tltfield of Multnomah thought a com
mittee of three or five, named by the
chairman, would be -enough, as the list
has already been" made up and there la
nothing for the committee to do. But
the idea of the country delegates for a
large committee prevailed on a' standing,
vote and the delegations were called'
to name their members. . ; !'';. y::-
Chairman Bristol called -C N. Mc
Arthur to the chair to, preside ' whllo
the platform committee was being pre
pared. McArthur proceeded to fill in
the time by calling on the old war
horses of the party to sound the praise
of the assembly UJea., , One after an
other they came forth, the roll includ
ing Walter L. Toose of Polk, Wallace
McCamant of ' Multnomah, George M.
Brown of Douglas, Charles W. Fulton
of Multnomah, D. Soils Cohen of Mult

In the state, and were called in tribute
to their long service in the party. Con
ners first voted for Zachary Taylor in
1848, and both rejoiced:; in the reju
venation of the convention,
Fulton received the greatest ovation
of the morning, George I Baker lead
ing in three cheers as he took the plat

provisions of ; the direct primary ..law,
which secures to every member of the
party the right to approve or reject the
action of the convention.' ' ' ; . y
Fulton put his O. K. on the new tariff

abused, It Is proving to be, as President

M. C. George of the state central com

, on Rev. C E. Kline to open proceedings
, With prayer. Then Chairman George"
started his- little speech, , declaring" he
had no hesitation in pronouncing tha
assembly the finest gathering of Re

come In direct compliance with the pri

George threw much lung force into
his defense ,, of the assembly. He was
careful to call it an assembly, but
most of the (Speakers named It a con-
ventiontBTeTrraItey-IrToore'of
Polk, after; saying he would call it an
assembly and would not allow Demo
crats to tell ' him what it was, forgot
himself a little later and referred to
the gathering as a convention.
When George called for nominations
for temporary chairman, that of W. C.
Bristol was the only one presented.
