WoRTHINGToN, Mobiles Co., Minn., May
Is, 1880-Thinking that the readers of the
GLOBE may be interested in an account of
how politics are managed in this part of the
State, send account of how the Rep ublican
convention held here to-day was managed.
The caucus for our village met on the even
ing of the 14th. Present, Mons Grinager and
j. P. Moulton, federal office holders, and
NJ. B. Soulae, P. M. They nominated and
elected eleven delegates to attend the county
convention on the morrow, and voted that
the delegates present be instructed to cast
the whole vote of the delegation. The coun-
ty convention met on the 18th
(to-day.) Present, Mons Grinager
j. P. Moulton, U. s. Land Office, Register
and Receiver and M. B. Soulae, P. M.
They nominated and elected ex-Gov. Miller
and A. M. Crosby delegates to attend the
State convention to be held at st. Paul on
the 18th, and instructed them as follows:
That in case Grant should be the leading
man, to vote for Grant. That in case Blaine
should be in the assendency, to vote for
Blaine and in case Window stood any chace,
to vote for Windom. But in any event to
vote for the man or candidate who was seen
to come out head. Our preferences are
for the strongest man every time. We are
endebted to Grant for our appointments and
if he is to be elected again we want to be con-
tlnued IN Office. If Blaine is to be President we
CUQnt IL diotin0tIv7 H,,a hat
men, so that our Offices may be perpetuated.
We don't care for civil service reform or any
thing else. All we care for is Us & Co. If
by hook or by crook we can so manage as to
hold on to our Offices we don't care.swho the
President is. We are Democrats, know
nothings or Republicans. Grant men,
Blaine men, TIlden men or Window men.
Whoever is likely to be elected we 90 for.
We are working hard and expect to continue
working hard for the strongest man. Such
as zoe. INDEPENDENT.
