THE OTHER SIDE.

In replying to the explanation of the
La Crosse Leader as to how Judge
Humphreys nomination was effected,
the Hudson Star & Times says :
''The facts are, that the Thorpe men
knew that they were hOpeleSsly beaten,
and preferring Judge Humphrey to
any of the other candidates, they
sought to obtain some credit by nomi-
mating him on the 1st ballot The
statement that this action was unex-
pected by the st. Croix delegates, is
wholly untrue. The writer of this ar
ticle who was one of the .treacher-
GUS delegates referred to, was not
only fully informed as to the pro-
gramme, but suggested it, urged its
adoption, and helped to carry it out.
1t was agreed with Mr.. Leonard Lot
fridge, who was the leader of the
Thorpe forces, that an effort should
be made to have Mr.. Thorpe's sup
porteTs 90 TO Judge Humphrey on the
LIST ballot. To that end as soon as the
convention was organized, ready to
proceed to a vote, a recess was moved,
in order to give Mr.. Thorpe s delegates
chance to confer together and decide
their action. Mr.. Humphreys friends
urged that the Thorpe forces come
over TO them at once, and the writer
of this handed to Mr.. Lottridge the
Humphrey tickets which were diStriD.
uted among the Thorpe delegates and
voted by them. We knew before tbs
vote was taken what the result would
he. and informed several persons
among others the Editor of the Ii
Crosse Chronicle.
The paragraph above quoted affords
an additional illustration of the re
freshing assurance, familiarly known
rs s.cheek, ' so Characteristic of til,
political wire-pullers Of st. Croi'
county. They went to Sparta will
the ayowed purpose of doing what the.
could. I'm a moral way, " to secure tn,
nomination of Price, should circum
stances prove unfavorable to Judg,
| Humphrey, and then coolly asked tn,
Thorpe delegates, whose candidate
they had sworn to defeat. to sscomi
over TO them at once and nominate
Judge Humphrey, which they did
The action Of the Thorpe delegate
was eminentIy proper. and we men
ton the circumstance merely to tiIrec
attention to the clever impndenee 0
the ST. Croix county politicians.
