! Very Dull at faeadquarters-Third Con.
| Erc&s1onu1 District,
| The all-absorbing interest attaching to the
I late Conclaye has tended to distract even the
politicians attention for the time being from
the generally engrossing theme OF politics.
and the result is 4 dearth Of local political
news more marked and more complete than
is ordinarily the case even thus early in the
campaign. by the middle OF tho coming
week, however, there will be nothing left
OF The late Conclave but the remembrance
OF Its mingled successes and blunders, and
people, politicians included, will have settled
pack into their usual avocations, and the no
lltlcal pot gives promise Of bubbling and hoi1
Ing in real first-class style. The Republican,
state Central Committee is dispatching any
amount OF urcary routine work at the Grand
faclflc Hotel, and, in addition to all that. is
constantly receiving the most encouraging
reports from all parts Of the State. Appoint
ments have been made for speeches in tho
places where they are most needed for ahout
every night this week, and the work of mr.
ganIzatlpn is going OIL With the old-ti1un
