The committee which was now assembled is that which was created in 18S8 at tht, territorial ter-ritorial convention held in Ojrdcn, urul at which convention delegates wen sent to the convention at which President Presi-dent Harrison was nominated. The committee com-mittee was elected for a period of four years, and its commission, therefore, will not have expired until the election of its successor at the approaching territorial con. vention. However, the "divisionist" republicans, at a territorial couveutlon held in this city in September last, at which time it was composed com-posed of recruits from the people's (mormon (mor-mon church) party and republicans advocating advo-cating an alignment on party issues, artpoiuted a committee which wa labeled the territorial republican com-mittee com-mittee of Utah. It was upon tha action of the "divisionist" republican-in or-mou or-mou committee that a convention was called at Provo on Friday last at which time the honors were split, O. J. Salisbury drawing j the divisionist republican mantle and Frank I J. Canuon the mantle from the ecclesiastical corps. The gentlemen will go knocking at tha door; the delegates to be elected at tha straight republican convention felecitate themselves that it will bo them who will walk in. The minutes of the previous meeting of the committee having oeen read and approved Hon. C. 8. Varian submitted an address reviewing re-viewing the history of the republican party in Utah, the secession of the divisioniats upon a rase concocted by the mormon church, and the work that now confronted the republican committee. The ulace for holding the territorial convention con-vention and the apportionment of delegates was then proceeded with, but pending tha consideration of the subject an adjournment was taken until 4 o'clock. |
