Republican Delegates Appointed for 1888 Chicago Convention
The Territory schedules 1888 representation with two delegates and two alternates per county. County conventions must occur at least twenty days before the Territorial Convention, with precinct mass conventions selecting delegates and county committees organizing all precinct sessions. Proxies are only allowed if held by a resident of the same county, and where no county committee exists Territorial Committee members fill duties. Citizens supporting labor and fair laws are invited to precinct conventions to select delegates.
