Political Gossip.

The Republican canvass for the prosecuting
attorneyship of this judicial district is becoming
interesting Mr.. McCray claims that the dele
gates to the judicial convention elected in Deca-
tur township were instructed to vote for his
nomination Mr.. Healing, however, says that
the election of delegates to such convention is
without authority. When asked yesterday in
regard to his hold on Decatur township, he said:
"McCray has taken an undue advantage in
campaigning He went down into that town
ship and told the people they could elect judicial
convention delegates at last Saturdays primary
He claimed to have authority from the county
committee to tell them so. The fact is, the
county committee has not organized, and hence
no date for the judicial convention has been de-
cided on and can't be until the committee meets
Further. the old committee has not authorized
any election of the kind nor will any call for it
be made until the new committee comes in"
