SAINT PAUL.
THE PASSING SHOW.

Yesterday was very Wal uoy "
talk politics, but the few Goodhue
county Republican politicians who
strayed into the city could not help
making some comments IN regard 10
their county convention held in Aum-
brota on Wednesday. AS one OF them
remarked: ''It was the greatest slaugn-
ter of the bosses ever known or VIII
messed in old Goodhue. 1t took no less
than ten ballots to nominate candidate
for senator, and all of the old factlon-
istsWere knocked out. Mart Chandler,
Gen. Jennison and T.. w. Hoyt were the
three candidates modeStly presented by
Red Wing, and, though Jennison led
on the first ballot, the fight soon re
Solved itself into anything to beat
Chandler; and although old Mart came
within five of having enough VOTES 10
nominate him on one.or two occaSlonS,he
couldn't get there, and so pew man,
Hon. J. W. Peterson, OF Fasa, was
nominated. Chandler, Jennison and
Hoyt are allNery, WARM over the AFFAIR,
because it lays them on the shelf, some
say for good IN $50
y"Fhat convention did one thing it may
wish it had3 notS done. before Jan. l,
1897 remarked another delegate to the
convention, .who.. by ;the way. was
chandler man. @-They indorsed Sen,
ator Cush Davis for a second term and
instructed the man nominated for SEN
ator tohyote fer Mr.4Davis two years
Iater-that is. If the nominee is elected
he is 10 do this. Goodhue is the first,
and IbelieHe the only county to do this
thus far, and think that an expression
from the county convention to be held
in the SUMMER OF 1872 would be quite
early enough for this senator and
the representatives to be chosen then.
Unless Mr.. Davis has done something
extraordinary that lshave not heard OF
d6not think either that he deserves or
will get a reflections"
