Show I I VICTORIOUS FAUST He Organizes His Convention Into an Association And Is Elected President of the Body I I When the Horse and Cattle Growers Association went over to the Opera House I I convention yesterday afternoon the members mem-bers of the latter body considered that I they had achieved a great victory that the members of the Association had flocked over to their banners seeking forgiveness for their past transgressions Mr Woolley of the convention moved that the organization of a Territorial Association As-sociation be proceeded with which fired Mr Le Grande YoungSSonl witH indignation indig-nation He was a member of the Horse I and Cattle Growers Association a terri I tonal organization regularly formed and he objected to the mode of proceeding that ignored the existance of that Association Asso-ciation Chairman Hatch was compelled to leave at this point and Mr Tennings I spoke with some fervor The members I t of the Association he said had not come there to be insulted and if the existance of their organization was ignored they would withdraw Mr Jennings grew I rather excited during some portions of I his speech and waved and shook his i cane before the audience in a ery impressive im-pressive manner Doctor Faust took exceptions to Mr I Jennings remarks and declared his intention in-tention to withdraw from the convention 1 lie did not propose to be insulted either I and he wasnt hankering after official distinction He would pay for the Opera House rent and pay for the band and he wished the convention all possible success suc-cess but he would no longer take a part in its deliberations Mr Faust then commenced a search for his hat but before he could find it a motion requesting him to remain was unanimously passed and he concluded to reconsider his determination to withdraw with-draw on the whole he thought he wouldnt withdraw Mr Rydalch arose at this juncture and expressed his firm conviction that a U little misunderstanding seemed to I exist among the members an opinion that two days of wrangling seemed to i justify Mr Ilydalch stated that he and many other cattle men had come here blindfolded and were ignorant of the fact that a difficulty existed between Dr I Faust and Mr Jennings Many members mem-bers had gone home in disgust and he thought they had been imposed on which statement brought Mr Faust to his feet again and thus the performance I went on A vote on Mr Woolleys motion to organize or-ganize an Association was finally secured and the motion carried Mr Jennings was then elected president presi-dent of all the combined and consolidated cattle associations and an adjournment to the City Hall at 700 was taken At the evening session nothing whatever what-ever was done except the reading of the

both organized for accomplishing accom-plishing the same objects It is only a question of time when the two Associations Associa-tions will be consolidated as the stockmen stock-men of the Territory cannot afford to divide their strength a fight for legislation legisla-tion and for railroad rates |
