Show candidate for delegate to congress at the coming election. W. J. Snyder of Park City was on his feet in an instant to oppose it and was followed by C. E. Allen of Salt Salt, who made a ringing ring-ing speech against it. S. P. Armstrong, I. L. Green, D. C. Eichnor and Delegate Pans-bley Pans-bley of Summit shovelled rhetorical obloquy upon the measure, but Colonel Sell boldly faced the music and said it was just the cheese. He wouldn't vote for a democrat for tougrew. The resolution was tabled by a vote of 400 to 4. The convention then adjourned. ad-journed. . . , GOODWIN AND ALLEN- They Will Make the Fight In the Republican Repub-lican National Convention. The republican convention which met in session here yesterday did not conclude its labors until late last night, the delegates selected being Judge C. C. Goodwin of The Tribune aud Hon. C. E. Allen county clerk. The alternates are Victor B. Dolliver of Sait Lake aud D. C. McLaughlin of Summit county. The'report of the committee on platform and resolutions was not submitted until the evening session when it was read by Prof. Dolliver as follows: The republicans cf Utah, through their territorial terri-torial convention, duly called by the onlv regu-Hrlv regu-Hrlv constituted authorities, once moie declare their full allegiance to the principles of the republican re-publican partv: they exult over its achievements in the past: tiny believe the country will advance or recede in the ratio that those principles shall be entertained or repudiated. We believe in protective tariff: we believe in the highest possible wages for labor: that skilled labor Should be encouraged and multiplied until our ( oantrv can produce any needed thing, both in peace and war. We are grateful for the placing of reasonable duties on foreign lead; we denounce de-nounce tae effarts now being made to remove those duties. We believe in the full restoration of silver as monev of ultimate redemption, side by side with gold, "even as it was during the first eighty years of the Republic. We denounce the passage of a bill through the house of representatives removing the duty from wool. As we rejoiced over the laws giving a bounty to American-male sugar, with like fervor we tie-noi tie-noi nee the act of the majority in the last Utah legislature in striking down that bounty. For twenty years tne republican party of Utah has (ought what in the Mormon ihiT.'h has been a danger to the public and a menaucc to the American Amer-ican home. It ha made that battle without malice, mal-ice, but always with the hope tiiat with advancing light the Mormon church and peopie would throw off what is un-American in their institution. Wa'vin 5 the matter of polygamy, we see no sign of sincere yielding of the church in political affairs: the rule of the church has never been relinquished. re-linquished. Hence, we thank the majority of the hou.-e committee on territories for the report against home rule for Utah, as submitted by its chairman, Hon. George D. Perkins. Loyal Citizens have worked for twenty years side by tide .n Utah, waiving all differences for the common weal, and we denounce the transparent transpar-ent couspi: a y whicu has drawn a small faction away from their ferae ; llegiance while the menace and danger still remain. We exu't ever the triumphs of the Harrison administration ad-ministration a! borne and abioid; its adjustment of the tariff; its admission of the new gidafious states of the north : its handling of the Chilean difficult.! and the heriug sea troubles: tor its policy of reciprocitv: and tor the hope held out that the silver question will toon ue settled on lines of justice. We rejoice over the campaign of educa ion now in progress in I'tih; we are in full touch with moving events, and look joyously forw aid to t e time whin young Utah, dipenthialled, shall, in the face ot a tyranu.cal creed, put ou the full robes of Americans. This convention, representing many thousands loyal I tah republicans, indorses the action of the territorial republican committee in removing certain members who attempted tj revolutionize the party of the territory, and it denies theauthor-ity theauthor-ity of a minority of the national republican committee com-mittee to give recognition to the Mormon republican republi-can party of Utah. It piotst against a representation for Utah on the national committee by a resid nt of another state, and instructs its delegates and their alternates altern-ates to respectfully but firmly present these views to the national c mventian. And as the convention of the only republican organization or-ganization .n L tah. it firmly in-tructs its delegates dele-gates and the r altein ites to insist upon no com-pron com-pron ise in the adjustment ot th? differences arising aris-ing because of the coutes.ing delegation.

The reading of the plaliorin was greeted with cheers and it was unanimously adopted. Col. Sells wanted the work of the Utah commission endorsed and a resolution covering cover-ing that point was adopted. A colored delegate from Weber than sprang the following: Whekeas, We deplore the sta'us of political affairs now exitins; in th a south; and, W hereas, We an-republicans, dipped and dyed in its principles, and believe in t.:e equal, civil and political rigats of every true American citizen of these I'nited States, irrespective of color. ftexolve-i, That we denounce in the most uncompromising un-compromising term thn whoU'Kale slaughtering, by l.uming at the stake, lyncliing. and other barbarous bar-barous methods, of colored citizens in the i-outh, by the democrats in that locality, without granting grant-ing to them the constitutional rights of either judge or jtirv Second, That we hereby, in convention assembled, assem-bled, memoralize congress to enact and pass such laws as will grant and gmr.intee to every citizen within i;s domain all the rights, privileges and immunities laid uown and guaranteed by the constitution. con-stitution. This brought Delegate Parshley to his feet with the remark that the convention could not afford to place itself on record as favoring favor-ing the protection of negroes, guilty of crimes too heinous to mention on the floor of the convention. After some debate it was referred to the committee on resolutions. resolu-tions. It is there yet.

Mr. Tatlock, the man who is not known to Arthur Brown, Esq., then raised merry hades by burling the following into the midst of the convention: WiiEitEAs, As republican- w desire to keep in line and step with tlie national republican party, th-i greatest political organization the world has ever produced: its ncconiptishmt-nts have never been equalled in political history, it saved the nation, ami has given such prosperity to the whole country in growth, wealth and enterprise, under its policy to protect and foster American industry, and, WiiEiiKAs, During our territorial existence, the only opportunity we have of showing our loyalty an i devotion to the grand old party at the ballot box is in voting for the only strictly political office on nation issues ; therefore be it Sttolred, That it be the sense of the republican pariy of I tah territory, in convention assembled, that it is our duty as republicans to nominate a |
