INOEPEADENT 14806 NOMINATES VANIEA me Jast Lo scicectL . te for the Riding of Cochran the banner of the Independ Party in the coming Provu tion.. There were fourteen s from â€" Timmins, 6 Troquois Falls, six from four from South Poreupine, the Connaught district, and various other points in the making a total attendance ane â€" deleceates, Mr. James Convention at Cochrane Last Week Selects Iroquois Falls Man as Candidate Various otnNer poinils l1l LiE IiiUuililzl,~â€" making a total attendance of fortyâ€" one delegates, Mr. James MeGuire, of Cobalt, occupied the chair. At first it was suggested. that no one ‘be considered as eligible to vote on the selection of a eandidate, unless said delegate had been a bona fide memâ€" ber of the Independent Labor Party for six months past. This would practically have ruled out all votes hut those from Iroquois Falls, as the Independent Labor Party has had little organization in other parts of the Riding untih the last few months. Eventually it was decidâ€" ed that the delegates as apâ€" pointed and present proceed as intenâ€" ded by the various branches. The next difference in ideas was when it was proposed that no candidate be consiâ€" dered for the nomination if said canâ€" didate had been actively connected in the past with either of the two politiâ€" eal parties. This proposal also failed to received formal support from the meeting, though the idea behind it no doubt bhad more or less weight in the selection of the candidate. One of the features of the meeting was the address of Mr. Sylvester Kennedy, of South Poreupine. He delivered an eloquent, fighting speech, as one of the delegates reported it, ‘telling the chairman where he got off at.‘ On the first ballot, Mr. Vanier, of lroâ€" quois Falls, received 15 votes; Mr. Fd. . Sheppard, 12, Mr.: Kennedy, 8 votes; with a smaller number of votes divided between Messrs. Penny and Russel. On the second ballot, the vote was:â€"Vanier, 19; Sheppard, 13;; Kennedy, 8. The last ballot gave Vanier 23 and Shepâ€" pard 17. Mr. Vanier was then moved to be declared the unanimous choice of the Convention. Mr. Vanmier was not present at the Convention, but Mr. MeGuire, the chairman, pressed his case in such a way as to annoy Mr. Kennedy who thought the chairâ€" man should show a perfeet neutrality and not attempt to influence the deleâ€" gates. Mr. MceGuirs emphasized the necessity for selecting a man not preâ€" viously active in either of the old line parties and spoke in the highest terms of Mr. Vanier‘s ablity on the Labor Party pla nier is an employee Power Paper Co. at He has been prominent cles there.
