the 9Th instant, but not dismayed. He
has made up his mind to try again for
the Governorship, and he is arranging
NOW to form Butler clubs throughout
the State with the intent to keep Up the
enthusiasm among his followers until
the next election comes around. There
is an element of lIeroism in this persist

They will probably reject Butler next
