Claud Gatch received the un animous endorsement of one of the most enthusiastic conventions that was ever-assembled in Marlon county. and he -will go to Eugene with the strongest and most determined dele gatlon that ever was sent to a district or state convention, pledged to stand by him from beginning to end, and if he doesnot receive the nomination at the hands of the -district I convention it can not be said that he lost it on ac count of not having the"" endorsement of his. own county. This delegation was selected with, the greatest of care and every man can be depended upon to do his duty, not only To vote but to exercise his Influence to the uttermost to secure -outside support. Mr. Gatch-has the utmost confidence In securing the nomination at Eugene and he feels more encouraged every lay at the outlook from the reports he ii recfiviiie from the other ' counties lie ha been advised f rom a.ia -author- i tatlve source, that, he st&nds'at the . head In the choice of Washington coun ty .eijd; 'while the delegates from that county will go pledged! to. no .one1- In . particular and is pledged In ifo wise 'except against JinVr j Hermann,- he feels assured that he can depend upon Ue delegation-from that county to give him almostTmanimous support. . j'Mr. Qa ten alsrt receives' flattering news from Yamhill county through J. T". Simpson, of Sheridan, a delegate to t$e Yiunhlll county convention, who was In Sat era yesterday, that", he Is in great favor i,n that county and that. While the delegation Would probably not be pledged to anyone, he will .fare pretty" well from that source. .He-also tikes great encouragement from the situation in Folk county' where great fight Was on between the Mulkey and Hermann forces and in which Her mann is supposed to have come out victorious. : It develops that the result of the convention was not an endorse ment of Hermann so much as it was a slap at Mr. Mulkey, and Mr. Gatch feels confident that he can depend upon at least three of the Polk county dele gation, and thinks that the entire, dele gation might support him. Summing up the situation as a whole, the Marion county candidate feels very hopeful of success and will go to Eu gene with the determination to win. ' The Republican County Convention ; ..met yesterday afternoon at 1 ro'clock in the armory a.t the city halL There was a very large attendance at the convention, considering the splendid weather and the rush of farm work at this time of year, and the delegates - were all either present or represented by proxies.

Mr. Gatch ; Speaks. , A motion was made to adjourn, but the delegates joined in calling "Gatch, Gatch, Speech." nnti? Mr. Gatch was compelled to come forward, .was Intro duced by Chairman Wrightman as .the next Congressman." and received a great ovation. Mr. Gatch said,: in part: "llr. President aim uenuemen: I consider it a great honor to have been twice nominated by the people of Ma rion county for Congress. It was some humiliation to have been defeated be fore In the district convention, but I believe that the earnestness of the delegates assembled in this conven tlon prophesies success this time and it will be a great honor to win with such warriors fighting for me. The old tree of protection still stands which has sheltered the Repub He through many a financial storm. There may be parasites on its branch es, but we must strip off the moss from the; trunk try united effort for protec tlon. I see the fell woodman approach with his I ax to strike a blow at the root- of this old tree of protection . and n is omy oy'tne utmost sagacny xnai danger? is to be averted. fOur. financial r soundness mus( be guarded so that a dollar is always worth a dollar, that is good wherever presented, and this fin ancial soundness must be extended 'to the new ; territories which have been recently acquired, that they may not suffer through our neglect. j ."Freedom of speech and thought was born- with our Republic, and it is our Idea to carry freedom of speech and thought to these new possessions. j "There is a story of a noble old sail br who, when: wounded and Carried be tow deck, cried to the fighters above. ?Dont give up the ship, and that mot to has since been our policy ana we propose! to keep it ever before us, Don't give up the ship! The people pf this Nation are In favor of men who will carry this message in defense of Jiberty and Justice, and wejwill do our duty, peaceably If possible, but if other nations : attempt to stop us, we must have courage to stand. "Years ago, when Abraham Lincoln stood on the Gettysburg field he said, 'our duty in the coming years, as now. 4s to bind up the wounds and care for the broken soldiers.' The old genera tion has done this, and now it is the duty of the younger generation to car ry this work forward, and we of the younger generation do not fail in our appreciation of what has (been done. Their courage . has been preserved to we children." At the conclusion of his speech he was enthusiastically cheered, and then a speech was called for from Frank DaveyJ and he gracefully responded, paying a glowing tribute to the choice of the convention for Congress. He said In part: : "It has always been a; pleasure to face a: Republican convention, because it Is backed up by patriotism, and be cause its conclusions are; right, but It (s eminently so today, when one of old Marion' noblest sons Ik being honored, and there might, be occasions when it would be even a greater pleasure. I am here to rejoice with' you in this happy hour and I hope to rejoice with you next Thursday, when the district convention at Eugene ratines your choice. "This Is a time for clear and concen t rated action, for the best Interests of the county and the district. The state should send as its representatives in the National legislative body such men as our nominee, who Is prominent for his honesty f purpose and purity of character. ', "The Marlon jcounty delegation Is going to EugeneTled by a man of whom we are proud, we have y geograpn teal position the right to ask this nom ination, and especially for such a man as Claud Gatch. I hope the aeiegation wm snare no efforts to crown . this movement with success, and I guaran tee that Marion county will ever have reason to be proud of its noble son.' At , the conclusion of Mr. Daveys elonuent and touching speech coming as it did from a defeated candidate, who.fas soon as the returns began to come In and signalled his defeat, fell Into line and J became Mr, Gatch's strongest supporter, the convention came to an end amid the greatest of enthusiasm and good feeling.
