If this movement should succeed in,
defeating MIR. Dunnell, it can work no
possible benefit to it's originators and
supporters; they will have but the sorry
satisfaction of realizing that they have
jeopardized the cause of the Republican
party in whose success they all profess
to have so great an interest. The people
of the First District appreciate, we
think, the fact that in MI. Dunnell, we
have an efficient, worthy and judicious
Representative alive to the best inter-
estS of his constituents. The pioneers
of our western counties will bear testi-
mony that he has ever been ready and
anxious to aid them In their troubles.

Each convention had exactly one-half
OF the uncontested delegates until one
delegate from Waseca county who was
IN the Dunnell convention Withdrew
and authorized the delegation in the an
IT, Dunnell convention to cast his vote,
making tifty-four in the former and fif-
ty-slX in the latter convention. Each
convention admitted delegates from
Mower and one from Jackson, making
60 votes in the Dunnell convention and
II in the anti-Dunnell convention. The
Dunrell convention considered the
forged credentials from Freeborn coun-
ty, but decided there was no contest,
knowing all the time that there was
none and having used the forged Gre.

the nomination of Mr.. Dnnnell by his
convention that body adjourned leav-
ing the other in possession of the hall.

district who participated. One Of them

That's nothing strange. We know

hundred lines and held it all in his
mind until IT. was cOmnlptpd with every

the best way to write poetry is to write
it down in blank verse just as it comes

it down to the average comprehension
