The machine element elected Al
bert Griffin as delegate and his partic-
ular friends treated with the machine
or slate-making element and made
trades to have him put on the slate
The northwest part of the state were
almost unanimous for Griffin as dele
gate until it found his friends were
trying to trade against our candidate,
BORN. Griffin was a part of the slate
made, which gave two delegates to
the 7th and shut cut the 9th district
from having delegate. That is all
there is to the matter. Mr. Griffin
had warmer friends from this section
than almost any other, and it was Il
mistake On the part of the delegate
who nominated Mr.. Borin. that he was
put in nomination against Mr.. Griffin

would have broken the slate and cleo
