TIE NEW DEAL--Boss Reyes the
Grant oracle Of republicanism in this
State, having felt the baneful effects on
that party, Of having their State Con
vention made up exclusively Of Grant
officials, instructed the Collar men
to stay at home, and send instead men
without the collar mark about their
necks; but men that could be relied on
all the same for party purposes. In
which case be would only draw on them
for sufficient money to pay actual OK
rcnses of those sent, as lac would draw
on the proceeds of the last general
whiskey raid for funds to liquidate all
the usual bills for et-a1 fluid extracts
during the convention. The result
shows Boss Keyes knew his men, as he
was duly elected Chairman of the Radi-
cal State Central Committee BY very
large majority.

THE Republican State Convention
was particularly fortunate in It's selec-
ton of representatives of the German
and Scandinavian nationalities, says
the Sentinel The German representa-
tive on the ticket was nominated by a
fraud. He was claimed 10 be from
Manitowoc; but he had not lived at
Manitowoc in two years, and in May
1875, Assessor Wardner found him a
resident at 273 Mason street, in the
Seventh ward of Milwaukee, and so as
sessed him.
Astothe Scandinavian, the joke was a
still colder one. Mr. Warner turns out
not to be a scandinavian, at ali, but the
child Of parents one Of whom was an
American and the other a German

The result Of the Republican State Con
vention is doubtless known by this time to
most Of our readers, bat We may be ex-
cused for giving short account of its
proceedings. The convention was call
ed to order by Boss Reyes ana Tx gov
J.T. Lewis was made permanent Chairman
The Madison Democrat has the following
comments upon the convention:
The Republican State Convention as
sembled at tbs Capitol yesterday, and went
through the formaiit7 Of placing in nomi-
nation a ticket that bad already been ar
ranged. \ little opposition was manifest
ed 10 one Or two instances, but it failed to
accomplish anything. The convention had
pupoSely been called early, and at an unu-
snail time, so it could be easily manipulated
There were but few town caucuses to
choose delegates, and though district con-
ventions were generally called, they were
attended only by two or three local politi-
clans, who constituted themselves a dele
CATION to the State cGavention. Several
counties where wholly unrepreseneed, and
10 was estimated that there were not $50
delegates present who bad been regularly
chosen, though there were about $50 re-
ported as entitled to seats. 1t was a cen
yentiou Of the politicians, and not OF the
/ people.
The following were nominated for
State Offices;

From what we can learn throughout
the state, this ticket is voted one Of the
weakest that has been put up for long
time.
