The attention of the Llhunils of the territory is directed to the fact that the couiiliK election Jn August is one of importance to the territory. County otlirer are to be chosen, and u strong npgressWe Unlit should be wuged by the Liberal Lib-eral pariy. even in counties w here defeat is certain. Every member of our party should make an effort to increase our vote Jn the territory ter-ritory over last August, when we polled 6OJ0 ballot In round numbers. The time is at hand when the county conventions con-ventions should be called for the nomination of u ticket and the selection of county committees. com-mittees. The basis of representation should be the Liberal vote, as polled at the August election last year. To portion the delenateB upon the busiH of the entire vole would be manifestly unfair, for upon such an apportionment, appor-tionment, a strong Mormon precinct, with InV Libera) votes, would be given representation representa-tion as great as an adjoining Lllieral precinct which bad the same number of tow. County committees should avoid any such errors. The county committee chosen should consist con-sist of live members, and their names und posiofllce addre-ses. w.th the names and addresses ad-dresses of candidates nominated, should be forwarded to the territorial commlttoe Immediately Imme-diately utter each convention, by the sacretary t hereof. At each of the precinct caucuses, a precinct t onimit teo of t hree should be named, ami the names and adili esHes forwarded at once to the , Lllieral territorial committee. In counties where I he Liberal vote is too small to Justify the calling of a county convention, conven-tion, the county committees tdiould meet and place a ticket In the field. Make your nominations in good season, ond jiuve your tickets printed and distributed early, so that a full vole may be polled. Please keep your territoilal committee fully Informed as to the political situation in your respective localities. O. W. PowKus,, Chairman. C. E. Ainu, Secretary. |
