Ninety.six ballots having been taken
with so little variation in result the
members tired of the caucus on Tues.
day night and by vote of4 to 40 ad.
journed over to Wednesday morning.
After the adjournment Howe parties.
Carpenter parties and Reyes parties
were held in separate rooms, for con-
ference. Reyes, because of his beg
ging the other candidates to withdraw
in his favor out of gratitude" etc.,
had become the subject of ridicule
and there was evident tendency to
disintegration among his friends.
Some wanted to 60 to Howe, some to
Carpenter, some to fourth man. 1t
seemed to be apparent also that Sem
ator Howe could not be chosen and
no fourth man could be found whose
name would break the triangular fight.
While this disintegration was going
on none of Mr.. Carpenters friends
were leaving him, and the melting
away. natural to the Christian heart,
was having its effect upon some who
have heretofore strongly opposed
him, and they were preparing to vote
for him. They persuaded themselves
that he recognized the mistakes in his
own career and would hereafter be a
better man, better Republican, and
stick closer to correct principles. We
trust their self persuasions will prove
correct.
In the meantime, as required by
law vote was taken 10 the Legis.
lative session, on Tuesday night.
The Democrats had previously nom.
mated Hon. e. G. Ryan, and the
Greenbackers Hon. Gabe Bouck.
The members in the Assembly voted
