The principal struggle cenrered upon
the Congressional nomination. The
Doughface wing supported Sonnifield.
Naturally enough, be being one Of their
number. He came into the Convention
with considerable strength of his OWL
aud the backing of Mitchell. Anderson
was not present, but his chivalric spiri'
was and the uDreconstrucribie rallied
to his standard with strength and en,hu
siasm. He is what is known as "a

Dixie whea the war was waging. He
certainly would not have been found
