The Mournful Proceedings Conclud.
ed and an Early Adjournment.
The Republican county convention as
sembled at Association hall yesterday at II
o'clock. 1t was very respectable gathering
in point of numbers, and was made up OF
the customary old rinysters who annually
appear in Minneapolis to assist the boys
in climbing into Office. But there was
look of detection on the countenances of the
leaders. They have evidently heard the
news from Maine, and watched with
constantly increasing interest the motion
of the wave, white-capped with popular
passion in favor of justice to all classes
which started in Maine few brief weeks
ago, and is rolling Westward to sub
merge the Republican party, and place il
position and power the friends of true re.
form.
The chief contests as foreshadowed in the
GLOBE, conferred about the nomination for
sheriff. Mr.. N. r. Thompson, who has been
the incumbent for term, candidate
TOR denomination, and for some reason q
very respectable number of his party were
opposed to that state of affairs Allen Hill
and Edgar Nash have been prominently
mentioned against him, and for weeks past
the battle had ragged and surged about the
sheriff throne. At the assembling of the
convection all the aspirants came up smiling
and confident.
