WOOD COUNTY
Republican Convention

1900, but not as large rs one year ago.
| There were many earnest aud honest work
ere In the convention whose only Object
was to secure the best men for the positions
TO be filed, while on the other hand there
we're no end TO rumos set ahoat by the
mnnipnlators and gamblers o.mislead and
deceive and secure advantages thereby.
Their were many who believed that the
candidacy Of r. W. MoMahan meant a
soft place for the broiher-in-law Case for
two or four years more, who had already
held Office too long for the welfars OF the
taxpayers OF Wood county. These ex-
pressed themselves in language too EN-.
plaiie to be mistaken, that they could
not support him il nominated. Oihers be.
lieved that his beaver was SHED in by the
ring at late hour TO confuse and beat
somebody, and were equally emphatic In
their disapproval.
But MIR. A. Fronev had been over the
county and secured his friends and all the
combinations brought to bear by the ma.
nipulators could not break his ranks.
Mr.. Fred Yeager had scarcely gone be-
yond the corporation limits in his efforts
to secure the position, and under these
circumstances the vote he received may be
regarded as highly complimentary to him.
Mr.. Davidson had been around but little,
and as the vote showed had but a small
following from the start.
The convention was called to order al
IL A. NJ. by DIR. Spencer, Chairman Cen
trail Committee, and the ballot OF the sew
eral townships resulted in the selection of
j. O. Troup as Chairman, and A. Nj.
Russell and A. w. Rudolph were selected
us Secretaries.
