Associated Press. Portland, April 11. W. L. Boise, chairman of the state central commit tee. called the republican state conven tion to order at 11 a. m. today, und stated that the central commlttoe rec ommende(1 Thomas h. Tongue be made temporary chairman, on motion Mr. Tongue was unanimously eiectea P. Paxton was chosen secretary and J, B. Eddy assistant secretary. A committee of five on credentials, committee of five on order of business and permanent organization and a com mlMee on platform, consisting of one from each delegation, were then ap pointed, after which the convention took a recess till 1:30 p. m. Following Is the committee on cre dentials: C. B. Runyon, Clatsop; C, U Snider, Lake: a B. Willey, Multno. l. p. smith, Tiiiamoou; M. A Moody, wasco. committee on order of business: a H. Carey, Multnomah; W. P. Looney, Marion; h. r. cnrr, Columbia; e. van- suck. Baker; h. m. kudu, Jackson. Among those composing the commit- tee on platform are D. IC. Warren, of Clatsop; A. N. Gilbert, of Marlon; H J. Bean, of Umatilla, and Harvey W. Scott, of Multnomah. There appears to bo no change In the situation. It Is stated that Judge Lord has notified his supporters that he Is not a candidate for supreme Judge, In the event he does not receive the gu bernatorial nomination. The secretaryship of state has nar rowed down to Kincatd and Hlrsch. For state printer Baker and Duniway have the largest following. McElroy Is a candidate now for his present ofilce For congressman Kills' nomination is almost assured. It will probably be late this afternoon when the nomina tions are reached. The ballot on con gressman will probably go over till to morrow. It Is thought that the platform will follow closely to the lines of the na tlonol platform of 1892 on the silver question. The afternoon session was opened at 2 o'clock. Before proceeding to busi ness the convention was favored with a few musical selections by the Multo- por Club quartet A selection known as 'Good-bye, Grover," sung to the tune of "Two Little Girls In Blue," was re ceived with the wildest applause. At this stage the chairman announced that Hon. Robert T. Lincoln, ex-minister to England, was In the clt.y. A motion was immediately made and adopted to appoint a committee to es cort him to the convention half. The reports of the committee on cre dentials was adopted, after a few minor corrections. The report of the commit tee on order of business and perma nent organization was read tnd adopt ed. According to the report adopted, the governor Is to be nominated first. This will precipitate a fight. It was feared by the Lord men that the Ful ton men on the committee might suc ceed In framing a. report placing the nomination for supreme Judge before the governor, and by nominating Lord for supreme Jud?e leave the coast clear for Fulton for governor. The report of the platform commit tee was unanimously adopted. Th nominations for governor were called for. A. N. Gilbert, of Marion county, placed Judge Lcrd In nomina tion. His nomination was seconded by ! Shel'uredj. of Douglas, and Miller, of Josephine. C. W. Fulton was nominated by ! Judge Raleigh Stott, of Multnomah, i end S. I. S. Lester, of Clatsop, and , I Chairman Tongue seconded the nomln a tlon of Fulton. Br.jwnell, of Clackamas, nnminated Hon. J. T., Apperson, of Clackamas. McGinn, of Multnomah, seconded Lord's nomination. The first, ballot resulted: Lord, 130 Fulton, 123; Apperson, 42. No choice. The second ballot resulted In the nomination of Lord. The vote was as follows: lrrt, 146; Fulton, 122; seat terlng, 2. After the announcement of the vote for governor, there were loud cries for Fulton. In a very modtst manner he cam, forward to the platform and spoke briefly In eulogy, of Judge Lord and the reiftibllean party. He .saldji did not feel a particle sore over the result, and desired to thank his friend who had supported him. He predicted success for: the republican party. At the conclusion of his remarks cheer after cheer was given for him, and It is safe to say that Charley Fulton has fewer enefnles hi Portland tonight than any other man. Admiration was ex pressed on, all sides at the enthusiastic and manly, manner In which Mr. Ful ton spoke f his victorious opponent. The following platform was adopted The representatives of the republicans of the state of Oregon, Jn convention assembled, call attention to the condl Hon of Industry and bunlnefs through out the country as a proof of the necea slty for returning to the policy of the republican ; party, under which there was general prosperity during thirty years. t We reaffirm the principles of the re publican national platform of 18!2, and assert that the results that followed the changj decreed by the elections of that year have Justified our protest against the national policy announced by the democratic party. We affirm that the policy of consls tent protection Is necessary for the ad' vancement and conservation of our In dusttial interests, for the assurance to labor of steady employment and axle' quate wages, for the promotion and maintenance of prosperity, local and general. We point to the past and to the contrast furnished by the jwesent. In support of this claim; and we cen sure and condemn the democratic tariff program, as developed in congress, as highly injurious to the productive and Industrial Interests of ihe country, and in particular as hurtful to those of our own state. We denounce the ae tlon of the democratic party In con gress for its discrimination against producers In our fields, forests and mines, and In favor of particular classes of manufacturers, chiefly of the east and of Bpeclal Interest In the south. We reaffirm the doctrine of the repufr llcan party In relation to money, as stated In our national platform of 1892, particularly as follows, to-wlt: The American people, from tradition and In. terest, favor bimetallism, and the re publican party demands the use of both gold and silver as Btandard money, subject to such restrictions and under such provisions as may be deter mined by legislation, as will secure the maintenance of polity of values of the two metals, so that the purchasing and debt paying power of a dollar, whether of silver, gold or paper, shall be at all times equal. The Interests of the pn ducers of the country, its farmers and its worklngmen, demand that every dollar, paper or coin, issued by the gov ernment shall bo as good as any other. We commend the efforts made by our government hitherto to secure In ternational conference to adopt such measures as will Insure a parity of value between gold and silver through' out the world, and call upon It to re. new and to continue such efforts. The construction of the Nicaragua canal Is of the highest Importance to the American people, both as & meas ure of national defense and also to build up and maintain American com merce. H Is moreover of special Im portance to our Pacific suites, ana we favor Its construction, as speedily as uosslble bv the government of the United States. We demand the enactment of rigid restrictions on fonlgn Immigration, both for the protection of our country against illiterate and vicious classes from foreign lands and for the protec tion of our labor and preservation to our own people of the remainder of our national domain; and to these ends we call for a suitable capitation tax upon all Immigrants. In our Btate aftuirj we demand the closest security and economy In expen ditures. We condemn the prodigality and excess of post legislatures, and call upon the next legislative assembly to keep all appropriations within the lim its of the most economical adminstra- t!on consistent with efficiency.. The offices of the administrative depart ments of the state have become trx expensive, and their expenst-s must be reduced. Whn the constitution fixes a salary the constitutional salary only i should ba paid, without additional emoluments. The practice of employing unnecessary clerks and of paying fees M excess or just payment ior services n"ede- or rendered has become an abuse that must be cut off, and we pledga the republican party to the proa- ecu tlon nnd accomplishment of this re- form. District attorneys and other offi cials should be paid fixed salaries, since the payment of fees encourages liti gation and entails upon, taxpayers heavy and needless expense. Wa commend the policy of the repub lican party In relation to Internal Im provements, and In particular In the opening of our water, ways to com merce, and we denounce the llllberallty of the democratic party In these Im portant matters. Experience In our fisheries has shown that to prevent the wholesale destruc tion of fish, all fish traps, fish wheels and fish seines, and all other gear now In use, except gill nets, should be abol- Ished, , STORM IN TUB EAST.

ADMIRED BY MANY DELEGATES New Wood Was Wanted in State House Hirsch Not in Demand. the Associated Presa. Portland, April U. The quesMon, "Why was Fulton Defeated?" Is an swered by a prominent republican, who is a friend of both Lord and Fulton, as follows: "There was a general senti ment throughout the stale for a 'new deal,' and delegates camo here Imbued with that sentiment. It was generally believed that the nomination of Fulton for governor meant that Edward Hlrsch would bo chosen as secretary of Btate, and the majority of the delegates from Eastern Oregon and the Willamette valley were determined that the nom ination for secretary of state should go to some one else. It was only due to the ability of his brother, Sol. Hlrsch, as a politician that he received the large vote that was given him. Mr. Ed. Hlrsch is a good man, but the people wanted new blood In the state house. Fulton Is admired by nearly every delegate In the convention, but his supposed combination with' Hlrsch Is, In my opinion, the one thing that defeated him."

Several were escorted out of the room by the bailiff, but more than half of the crowd remained. THE ALASKA SALMON WAR. San : Francisco, April 11. The.
