rier in an article discussing the question Of
the next delegacy, Suggests, as near as se
can make out from his illusions the follow
ing names as likely to be spoken of for The
nomination; NJ. l.. Muffin, of Brown; D. A
). Upham, Of Milwaukee; DR.. Dulieg, o
Fon du Lac; C. Nj. Baker, of Walworlh
Byron kibourn, of Milwaukee; and Nose:
NJ. Strong of Iowa
The fist Of these gentlemen, Mr.. Martin,
is no doubt tolerably we'll knuwn by reputa.
ton, TO most of our people. He resides al
Green Bay, and is probably the Oldest resi-
dent of the Territory, who has been named
for The station. He has occupied seat a.
member of The Legislative council, from
Brown county for several years. As a man
of ability he occupied the front rank in tha,
body. He is consistent in his political pro.
fessions; his private character is excellent;
and Should lie be nominated, we think he
will secure the strength of tho party, and be
elected, and if 50 VIII make an able dele
gate. He is lawyer by profession.
Mr.. Upham is resident of Milwaukee;
probably personally known TO many of our
people; and as he occupied seat in the
Council from Milwaukee, known by reputa-
ton very generally, no doubt HIS ability
is unques:ioned-his political integrity and
private character, so far as we have any
means Of KNOWING are above reproach. II
we are correctly informed, where he is best
known be is most popular. Doubtless, he
would unite the fill strength of the party.
and secure success. He is 4 lawyer by pro
lesson.
Mr.. BIkcr resides at Geneva. aad as he
is near nejghbor, rs no doubt tolerabl,
we'll known TO most of our readers He at
present represents Walworih co. in the Leg.
islative Council, and perhaps the best ev;-
dcnce of his standing where he IS known,
may be drawn from the fact that he was
pretty much the only Democrat on the tick
ct who was eltc.ed, the year he run. Mr..
Baker is highly esteemed for The blaneless,
acss of his private l:fe; and the uudoubtee
integrity of lis political Professions. H.
alb lily S of good order, and bat few dem
ocrals in the territory, we imagine woul,
object 10 the naminat:on Of Mr.. Baker.-
His is lawyer by profess on.
Mr. Darling we have before spclcn OF
and we need not repeat here what we hay,
said. Living been acquainted WI tn hin
for several years; his zeal and industry il
the service Of his Constituents; his ability
and wthal his excellent private chafac,e.
impressed US strongly in his favor, and
we, like every body else, must have som
little preference he is ours for t. nomina.
ton. Dr. Di!Eng was eJac ted a phys
clan; but is now by choice a farmer.
Byron kilbourn of Milwaukee. is II,
doubt as well known to our citizens as an,
man in the Territory, ST. that any extcndc,
notice Of ours is uncallcd for He wa,
last yelr member oflhe Ley 'sl4ture from
Milwaukee; as delegate he would com
mand influence, and stands high in point CT
talents.
Mr.. Strong IS also SO well known by rep
tuition 10 our people that we arc not called
upon tie notice him here at length. II oc
cup;es front rank among our able men,
and Las filed pretty large space in the
history Of our territory. We need not dis.
qnise the fact hit he IS no f,vo,ie of on-s;
but The nomination is with the convenliO n,
not with us.
There are ether men Of orr parry equally
qualihed IN every respect for the s;alo1 as
those VIC have ment aned and who WI be
nominated is of course a matter of the
'agaes: conjecture. That .dic OBS choice
viii be made we have little doubt; and our
opPonents who are foolish enough to ntt:er
themselves with the idea of dissensiou
among lis, will fnd that the Democracy Of
the territory arc part Of the grand army,
which knowing no consideration paramount,
10 the success Of their principle, routed l.si
fall The combined hosts of whiggery.
If the cd tor of the American had known
any thing about the matter, il is probable he
