The Republican Convention.

The Republican Convention.
The republican congressional con.
vention for this district was held in
this city, on Wednesday last. AS
that was our publication day, it was
impossible for us to give more than
a meagre outline of its doings last
week, and it is now too late for a
complete report to be acceptable.
Hence we shall content ourself with
some general remarks concerning it.
On the Tuesday previous, the dele
gates generally had arrived and it
was an easy matter to ascertain the
relative strength of the two princi-
pal competitors for the nomination,
j. e., Hon. H. B. Strait and J. A.
Thatcher. The former was claimed
to have forty-seven votes, giving
him majority of six over all oppo-
sition; and the latter thirty-eight,
or seven less than majority. The
most influential friends of Major
Strait did not, however, desire his
nomination under circumstances
which would render his election in,-
probable, and having been told that
there were good many republicans
in this end of the district who would
not vote for him, they manifested a
conciliatory and compromising spirit.
They even expressed willingness
to withdraw his name, for the sake
ofharmony and adopt a more &C.
ceptable candidate.
Had the opposition displayed an
equally accommodating disposition,
it seemed to us that a compromise
might have been effected easily at
that time; but few of the delegates
who objected to Mr.. Strait seemed
determined to prevent any mutually
satisfactory understanding. These
INDUCED in denunciatory and abu-
=sive illusions towards Mr.. Strait and
Ibis friends, and soon succeeded in
exciting such antipathy as to put
compromising wholly out Of the
power Of everybody. Through Tues
day afternoon and evening, until
after midnight, the disputes continu-
ed, waxing hotter until personalities
came to be INDUCED in pretty free
ly. On Wednesday morning calm
er state of feeling existed, and those
paciticato1ily inclined tried to renew
negotiations. Rice county's ten
delegates, who were understood to
be divided in opinions, were regard
ed as holding the power to dictate
terms, and an appeal was made to
them by portion of the anti-Strait
element to bring forward new man,
say, Mr.. Buckham or Mr.. Gordon
E. Cole. But all the anti-Strait
delegates would not agree to this
proposition, and Rice county dele
gates very properly refused to intro
,dnce a further cause of discord. No
successful effort was made or could
be made to unite and organize the
anti-Strait men, and, hence, theil
influence could not be fully exerted
AS far as we could see, during al
this time the friends of Mr.. Strai
were guiltless of anything worthy o
complaint. They were united an<
calm, except when one or two woul'

ference to Strait, they managed pur-
posely to bring about the nomination
Of Mr.. Strait, and yet did not let it
appear that they were responsible
for that result. 49,.
Still others feared that, if a COM
promise was effected, the new can
didate taken up might be Hon. Mar
tin S. Chandler, and knowing him
to be a healthy man, possessing re-
markable power of endurance and
capacity for holding on, they reason
ably supposed that if he once got
the Office they would not live long
enough to ever hope to realize the
fruition of their own aspirations.
Hence, they did not want to CON-
PROMISE They preferred to have
Strait nominated rather than take
the risk on Chandler. 1t is due,
however, to Mr.. Chandler to say
that, so far as we can see and we
have watched closely, he has done
nothing to afford the slightest room
for suspecting that he did otherwise
than labor faithfully to procure Mr.
Thachers nomination. He certain.
ly did not work to procure his own
nomination, nor would he suffer his
friends to do so.
In conclusion, then, these appear
to be the real facts: Mr.. Thacher
owes his defeat principally to mis-
management on the part Of his
friends, and secondarily to the un-
faithfulness of some Of those in whom
he Confded. MIR. Straits nomina-
ton is due, first, to the circum-
stance ofhis having a majority of
the delegates in his favor, and, next,
to his opponents want of confidence
in each other and consequent want
of unity and organization. 1t can
not be said that there was unfairness
in this convention, nor was any
proof furnished that there was un-
hence, so far as we can see, he is as
fairness in the county conventions;
much entitled to the support of the
party as nominees are usually.
The Minnesota State Agricul-
tural Society has issued large COL
ored poster announcing the 18th an.
nual exhibition, which takes place
at St. Paul on the sd, 4th. 5th and
9th of October. The bill was print
ed in Cincinnati, and it would be
but justice to compel the commit
tee to pay for it out Of their private
funds. There is no reason whatev-
er why State institution of this
State should not patronize home
establishments. Half a dozen off,
ces in the State can do printing
good enough for any show. But so
we 60! Nothing to exhibit at the
Centennial, because we are too
poor! Our leading educators pro-
claiming that the legislature will do
nothing to advance the educational
interests of the State! Our metro
politan press working against the
interests Of the State, by unnecessary
exaggeration about the wheat cop!
The local press teeming with &C.
counts Of destruction by grasshop~
pers and other pests! And, taking
everything IN connection, it seems
to us that we are striving effectively |
to keep away immigrants, discour-
age our own people, and ruin the
prospects of Minnesota.
