The vote on the resolution, designed to destroy the unit rule, on which his political fortunes were assumed hy some to depend, showed that Mr. Bamberger had a clear majority of the convention, and that the men bound by instructions did not regard their Instructions as obnoxious fetters. fet-ters. Mr. liambcrber's mandate seems perfectly clear. There is no flaw in his title to the nomination. That he did obtain it in such decisive fashion redounds distinctly to his credit and emphasizes the confidence in which he is held by the members of his party.

Mr. Bamberger is a young man, as age is reckoned these days. He is affulent, well educated and has been a successful mine operator and business busi-ness man since his graduation from college and entrance into active life. Due to the moaesty which Jias always characterized him, he is perhaps not so well known as some other men of his years, but his friends and acquaintances who know him best agree that he possesses solid capacity, and that he thinks along correct lines for his judgment to be of most value to the people of this state and region.
