ket hall tomorrow morning at 10
O'Clock. This convention will elect
delegates to the congressional conyen-
ton of the Fourth district, which will
assemble in this city the 18th inst. Ac-
cOrding TO the call of the county COM
mittee the congressional nominating
convention was to meet at Minneapolis,
but the district committee has changed
this order and the Sanity City, instead
of the City of Mills, will have the privi-
lege of choosing a successor to Repre-
sentative Edmund Rice. From the tone
of the primaries held yesterday, itwould
appear that Hon. Edmund Rice will
have a walkOver for the nomination,
since no opposition whatever was mani
tested to his candidacy. The delegates
chosen in the various wards were as
follows:

vote polled in the First ward at the cor
ner of Decatur and Bedford streets.

Quoted on strictly Democratic princi-
pies, and were quiet and orderly. There
was but one ticket voted, all being of

and that to return him to congress will
display wisdom on the part of his sup
porters. The delegates chosen were:

George II. Allen. Thomas Caulfield,
Martin Dreis, George Gerlach. Jr.,
