WELLS s. DICKINSON had been busy since the
Syracuse Convention closed its deliberations that he
had not had much time to run politics through his
head. He said tina, Conking was not strong man
with the people OF Northern New York. asked him
he considered the resolution passed at Syracuse
binding upon him, and he SAID he did, IN measure.
or course he did not believe would he give blind
adhesion 10 any pledge OF the kind While he is per-
sonal friend OF Ccnkngs, he does not think he the
most available man 10 the party, ana THINKS the cam
paign with HIM as IS leader would be rather up hill
work.

in his characteristic way, but If don't succeed in
nominating him won't sit down on log aud weep,
always provided there Is log TO SIT down II ia

I'd send Conkling to the White House lots but
that can't be done the people have the matter IN hand
and they arc to be suited
Seeing that he doubted Couklings ability to rally the
rank and die, Questioned him 10 the ticket he
thought would win. After much elaboration, for the
swell, have heard OF two men who would well

Bristow or Bristow and Wheeler. n Wheeler Is MONT

district TO the Cincinnati Convention. not u very
strong ConKling man. He thinks however that every
member OF the delegation from New York Is honor

He says the adhesion to that resolution should be only
reasonable, and he does not believe in the thck and

opinion, II the rule not observed the power OF tho

force will fail to he appreciated in Convention.
The conversation turned quite naturally to 'the man

preferences as The good OF the party as whole.
