The resolu tion passed two weeks ago. calling for the nomination of a county ticket was read. Chairman .Gibson opened the pro- ceemngs wun an address. Gibson said that there seemed to be a sentiment among a great number of me voters of the county that the oon vention was a blow aimed at the tri mary law, that it was a gathering for the purpose of throwing the politics of tne county DacK into the, old convenlon rack. He said that no man would have the hardihood to go to the legislature una attempt to amend the primary law He was for the primary law. Gibson said, but the assembly plan was the only way to direct the operation of the primary law -and get the ; best" men, in umce, ' . , 4 ... . i, - Ioe Takes Xatrems position. M. J.

JBeorge Randall also objected to fur ther proceedings. He said that tho meeting was very poorly attended. He ., was in ravor of the assembly, he said, but be considered that it Would be very poor poncy to nominate a ticket For ine minority of the convention to take such action, and, attempt to bind the party would create dissension. , Thoso wno were not present would turn the nominees of the convention down, l Feojjle Do Xot Understand.'

They were not i there to nominate , candidates, , Gibson said, but to recommend them. Speaker Interrupted.' . ' V. P. Carter of Gladstone started to upeak, but was interrupted by E. W. . Bartlett, who raised a point of order! ' When the roll was being called he ob . J-cted. Carter had stated that he was .' there as a spectator and did not want to be considered as participating in the ronventlon., Therefore, Bartlett con- tended, Carter ought not to be allowed to speak on the floor of the eonven ' tion. Gibson came to Mr. Carter's aid and he was allowed to speak. ; , y "I was satisfied two weeks ago and am still." Carter said, "that you are selecting the best method at your hand to disrupt the party in the county. I lmve heard anti-monopoly men say they would not vote for an assembly candi date, and I have heard assembly men 1 sty that under no circumstances would they support an anti-assembly man at any time.

Clark tried to pull the ship back Into calm and shallow water. , He intro duced a resolution as an amendment the motions to nominate a ticket. The resolution provided that the, convention adjourn sine die, declaring as it ad journed that It was in favor of -the as sembly, but that finding it opposed by a respectable minority, the majority would yield to the opposition and await the educational advancement of the coming two years when the voters would have learned the true intent of the as sembly movement v : Party Should Qt Together. X H. Revenue did not like that much. He said he wanted to know when the Republican party had lost its right to assemble and talk things over. ; The chief thing the American people had against King George, he, said, was that the monarch refused to allow, them-'to assemble. ' Now, he contended, there was a King George In Clackamas eoun On ftae resolution to adjourn sins die being put to a vote It was lost by a margin, of 1 votes, the vote being S3 for the resolution -and 40 against it, showing also, that only 73 delegates were' participating In the deliberations of the convention. . Then the motion to nominate a. county ticket ' was carried and a big bunch of the delegates who did not think it wise to nominate a ticket left the toll. , - y . " .' ; Would.

The -resolution also provided for a campaign conducted Strictly along the lines laid down by the primary law and condemned the nomination of candidates by the assembly. . This resolution was voted down, The convention then commenced Ihe nomination of candidates by chooBlng a candidate for state senator.' EL W. Bart lett and Lu D.

Again Chairman . Gibson warned ' the delegates rto be ca.ref ul of their . lan guage. The convention' was not nomi nating officers, he said, but was rec ommending them. He- did not want a wrong impression concerning the intent of the convention to get abroad. v Three candidates for the house of rep resentatives were next considered. ! E. W. Bartlett was again placed in nomi nation and again withdrew. Charles Miller was placed in nomination, and he withdrew. J. W. Exon, Dr. Hugh 8. Mount and J. S.

It was also moved to ratify the state convention ticket but Chairman Gibson said that would be a slap at Grant B. Dlmlck, a fellow townsman, and advised against the motion, so It was with drawn.

"But when men, after meeting In secret caucus, come here to "dictate a ticket it is not right and I do not think we should lend ourselves to . serve their ends.
