Under Which King, Bezoniaa
Brooke or Vickers
Beatty Holds the Fort and
will Get the Delegation.

A due regaId for the wishes of AL
leading Republicans Of thi'
county who. read the Sentinel
impels us, in the absence of any
organ of their OWN, as correctly
stated by the Commercial Ga
zette, to occupy some of our val.
ushle space in giving the present
status, as we'll as recent proceed
inss of the fragments of factions
alleging to compose. the Repub
lican party of Hooking.
| On Saturday, May 10th, the
Central Committee met in the
Opera House, on cali of Mr.. AL
Brooke, said 10 be by the Colum
bus Journal, the "shrewdest
young Republican in the State,'
and under lock and key organic

the next year, and then proceed

Convention, viz: Peter Booth,
F. G. Rochester, A. II. Brooke,

Il. o. Kittsmiller. Lafe Egsles-
ton. Aaron Hosure. Each dele
gate to cast half vote. Tire del
egation passed resolutions to sup
port Gen. Beatty for Governor.
This star chamber proceeding
of Mr.. Brooke's clicque, provok-
ed the friends of Foraker, and
the Republicans who, although
for Beatty, are also opposed to
Chinese jugglery, and paper
was prepared receiving the sig
natures of the displeased Repub-
licans of the town and county,
calling for a mass convention in
the Opera House the next Satur-
day afternoon.
The proposition was to de-
throne Brooks. and recast the
delegation, giving the Foraker
men at least their entitled vote
in the delegation.
The call for the Saturday meet
ing was signed by the veteran
Greenbacker, Judge Grogan, and
the we'll known Democrat, F.
Blasius, and others, not any more
closely allied TO the Republican
party.
THE CONVENTION
on Saturday was the most miser-
able failure, as a political demon
stration, we have ever witnessed.
BY actual count, when we enter
ed the hall, twenty-seven were
present. This included three
boys connected with show COM
pany, and several well known
Brookites.
The program had been "cut
and drled," but so bunginly was
it handled, that even the boys
saw through the game.
Bob Price, "the wild commun-
list Of the wilderness" was made
Chairman, and Ned McManigal,
soap dealer of Canton, Ohio, Sec
retary.
On taking the chair. Mr.. Price
read the call for the meeting,
published in last weeks Gazette
supplement to the Sentinel
and made no comments either
upon the lad grammar of the
editor, nor the despotic tenden-
cies of Boss Brooke.
After an interval Of silent med

could have been heard, Doc Nc
Manigal, consulting his memo

This Is accounted for, how
