Coumv ofncn ale to be chosen, mid a Hlnmg aggressive fiht should 1 waged by the Liberal Lib-eral party, even in counties whore defeat w certain. Every member of our party should ialte an effort to increase our vote in the territory ter-ritory over last August, when we polled 6UW bal lots in round mini hers. The time is at hand when the county conventions con-ventions should be called for the nomination Of a ticket and the selection of county committees. com-mittees. The basis of representation should be the Lilwral vote, as polled at the August k election last year. To a portion the delegates upon the basis of the entire vote would be manifestly unfair, for upon such an apportionment, appor-tionment, a strong Mormon precinct, with few Liberal votes, would be given representation representa-tion as great as an adjoining Liberal precinct which had the same number of votes, County committees should avoid any such eirors. The county committee chosen should con-Clst con-Clst of live members, and their names and Sostolnce addresses, with the names and ad-resses ad-resses of candidates nominated, should be forwarded to the territorial committee Immediately Imme-diately aftor each convention, by the secretary thereof. . At each of the precinct caucuses, a precinct committee of three should be named, and Barnes and addresses forwardoU at once to the Lilieral territorial committee. In counties where the Lilieral vote is too Biiall to JuslifV the calling of a county convention, conven-tion, the county committees should meet and place a ticket in the field. Make your nominations In good season, and nave vour tickets printed and distributed earlv, so that a full vote may be polled. Please keep your territorial committee fully Informed as to the political situation in your respective localities. O. W. Powbhs, Chairman. C. E. AUJK, Secretary. |
