nation for Governor.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. 4.-The
demand for the nomination of A. q.
Porter as the Republican candidate for
governor has become overwhelming,
and it is the firm belief that he will Ger
tainly be made the candidate. r. r.
Shiel, who is at the head of the move
ment to force him into the race, says
that 800 delegates had up to last night
pledged themselves to vote for him.
Two more candidates. Ira j. Chase and
John NJ. Butler, have announced their
Willingness to step aside SO that Porter's
nomination may be made unanimous,
and it is now claimed that the only as
pirant who has not in some manner eX-
pressed willingness to uncomplain-
ingly yield to the acclaim for Porter is
Col. r. S. Robertson. Nothing has been
said by Gen. Porter relating to the nom
ination since the publication of his last
letter, but the fact that he has not re-
affirmed his declaration is regarded by
his friends as a cause for hOpefulnesS.

BrERRIAM'S GAME.

that must make the hair of the McGill
patriots stand OH end.
The Clay county convention has been
held, but under such circumstances as
to call out loud and vigorous protest
from the McGill and Schetfer allies.
They denOunce Merriam in the most
unmeasured terms, and declare that if
he is nominated by delegations secured
in this manner, they will bolt the NOM
inee and not be held responsible for the
final result of the campaign.
''If Merriam buys up delegates after
we have elected them," said a McGill
man yesterday, ''but where he bull
dOzes a county into selecting a delega-
ton that does not represent that county,
we propose to protest and make trouble.
We will abide by any result in the state
convention that is secured honestly, but
dishonest tricks will cause us to with
draw our support"
The facts in Clay county are that the
convention was called July 81 for July
90. The call was so late that the county
newspapers could not publish it until
July 26-only four days before the con-
yention.
As a result of this a majority of the
townships in the county never knew of
the call until after the convention had
been held.
a further result was that out of fifty
delegates entitled to seats in the con-
vention only twenty-three were pres
ent, and some of these acted as dele
gates when they had not been chosen
as such at any caucus. Only twelve
voting precincts were represented in
the convention-being the three wards
of Moorhead, Humboldt, Barnesville,
Hawley, Viding, Tausem, Alliance,
Elmwood, Eglon and Kragnes.
The eighteen voting precincts of
Cromwell, Elkton, FELTON,, Glyndon,
Goose Prairie, Georgetown, Highland
Grove, Hagen, Holy Cross, Keene, Moor
head township, Moland, Morken, Oak
port, Park, Riyerton, Skree and Ulm
were unrepresented.
The convention was call ed five weeks
before the state convention, and at the
inStigation of the Merriam men to head
off an instructed delegation Tor Nc
Gill.
The outcome of this hocus pocus game
is that the McGill men, aided by the
Schefferites, have entered protest and
propose that new county conven tor
shall be held.
They declare that they will not en-
dure any sue h game, and that if Mer
riam proposes to be nominated he mus
win by fair means and not by foul.

the department has not received any inform-

diplomatic correspondence has been in pro
gress looking to the continuance OF peaceful
relations. Mr.. Adee does not expect that
the department will know anything definitely
until the arrival of tho mails from Samoa
which are now in San Francisco. He thinks
that the press dispatches may prove to be ex-
aggerated. Secretary Whitney says that If
anything very serious was contained in the
letters from Samoa now in San Francisco,
he would hear by wire at once. In any
event, the secretary says, an American war
vessel will be left at Samoa until everything
has quieted down. Consul Sewall who has
been in Washington for 50 me time, has left
for his post at Apia, with full instructions
from the state department.

The Reason Why

Ayers Pills are so popular is, that
while always reliable as a cathartic
medicine, they never leave amy i'll
effects. This is because they are purely
vegetable, and entirely free from Gallo
mel or any other dangerous drug. In
all cases, therefore, whether the patient
be old or young, they may be conf
