elusive. The Republican and Greenback
Convention to nominate delegates to the
County Convention Saturday next, was held
here to-day. Harmony prevailed in the
Greenback caucus, but iB the Repubh-
can convention which met this after
noon, Dig row took place. A misun-
derstanding about the division Of the
Offices provoked the strife. There was
great excitement, and before the President
and peaeesbly inclined members Of the con-
vention could restore order q knock-down
and several bloody noses had resulted. 1t
is doubtful now if the Republican element
here will ever be able to agree. A big row
is confidently looked for at the county con-
yention next Saturday which will meet tor
the purpose of putting full ticket in the
field.
