SiOnal delegates. Editor Sinclair, of
the Republican, is also mentioned.
Capt Mullen has been down from Wa
basha interviewing prominent Republi-
cans, but if ne has made any converts
they nave been kept shady. Maj. o. B.
Gould and eX-GOv. Yale are also talked
Of. While there are a number of Dun

say he is not a candidate, and will not
make an effort to get the nomination.
1t is understood that a strong effort is
being made to bring a Winona man

any one, but our game is anybody to
beat Judge Wilson," They believe
that a Winona man would be the most
formidable candidate that the Rochester
convention could nominate.
