Salt Lake City BUhf OCTOBER 15, 15S2. ; Thursday mornmgj y Territories, that were mere repxescaicu, .were called In alphabetical order. and Consequently Utah, came neir the last,com- it was" almost tim? to adjourn, but after, to save time mencing to make a verbal report mpTetFwrTtten one ofthe ladies -The' report written report had been prepared. : was called for both from the platform and from - the audience, and jit was voted that It should be given in full. It was exceedingly well received, n fact said to be the most perfect reprrt'and best presentedrZiz.- cMisiderahle tiine was ... taken up in discussing the slauuers oi me Omaha Herald." Mr3. Saxon of Louisisnn, and Miss Couzens of Bt. Louis, were brilliantly Mrs. eloquent on the subject- In defending Qougar and Mrs. Bewail of Indiana, agilnst the base fabrications and insinuations of the Herald editor. After aU this world of word which were choice and positive, Mr. Bewail came to the front and eald she should never have thought of taking up the subject, although she was much obliged to her good friends for so cordially and ably espousing her cause, but for her own part she could not understand the. dialect In which It was written. It was conrequently un intelligible to her and fell harmless as far as sue was concerned. Pure minded, high bred people would not understand the language of the artl and - therefore she had no fear cf it. The JbriefLspeech was scathing and had aTnoro-tell-. the ebqience of the ladioi ing effect tharf-a- ll who defended her. Mrs. Bhattuckor msion was the first regular speaker. The evening session was the most crowdeJ cf all, there was not even itanding room left anywhere in the Opera House. The resolutions were read and approved. At half past nine the reception opened at the parbrs of the Paxton. Everything had teen arranged in elegant style, and the conversation was kept up until a late hour, though many retired as fcoon as they had paid their devoirs, to Miss Anthony, Miss Couzens and the leading ladles. To attempt a dzecrlption of the aflair would take too much ti me, euffl ee it to siy, it passed irT pleasantly, most of the time bsing taken up with introductions, to people one never expects to meet again, and knows nothing of them except the nme and perchance title. Good byes were in order at the close, and many hiase3 were interchanged and tears dropped In " the foEd heartfelt adieu x.-- --- 3J. Committee pn dominations. These several committees Included one at least from every Stale or Territory represented at the Convention. The ladles talked oyer the neces-- .. sity cf having a regular medium of communication through the press, which the Association had not had since the National Citizen of Syracuse, N. Y., was discontinued. After some amiable discussion of the matter, a vote was taken to make "Our, Herald" the medium of such cammunlcatlon. This Is alresdy a very popular in per, and will no doubt more than double its circulation now that it is to contain complete details of the work of tha N. W. 8. A. Its editor, Mrs. Helen M. Gougar la a ebarp, shrewd, bright, intelligent lady, and on the platform witty, brilliant and Eparkllng, holding, the undivided" attention "cf "her audiences, jand-the- y never tire of her interesting themes and apt Illustrations. She speaks much in the open air, which Is rather uncommon for a lady, and has by this means accomplished a good work in Nebrakn, during the present campaign, taking In another class of men and winning many over to the" cause, who otherwise? would never have . 'heard woman'arlllosUion explained, Is It a or ever given thought. There no doubt but she will mako the paper very useful In the cause of woman'j suffrage as indeed it has been heretofore, though perhaps not so exclusively. Tuesday evening, half past 7, the Convention was formally opened, with prayer by the Rev. Mr. Bberrlll, Congregational minister atOmahaT Then fallowed a written address of welcome by the Hon. A. J. Peppleton of that city, but unfortunately for him the light was not sufficiont to admit of hla reading It, but it was published ; in the morning paper.

In electing the Ter. Cen.
