1fanv Of the State delegations have a
hard time OF 10 10 viii not be because
fhe local committee has failed IN us
6ntv. n will rather be because Ie"
~ The States neglected TO apply ior
quarters. The sons of these oeiihquene
commonwealth will get good place 70
sleep and plenty Of good ana Wen pre-
pared Minneapolis made nour' OUT 'hey
will not enjoy the luxury oil quarters az
the West or Nicouet or some otner
equally good hostelry.
Whatsonie OF the States lacked IN Wig
ilance Others made up for In the very
nro,nnt way they asked for accommO-
dotlons. There was New York, Tor IN
stance. which never gets left when IL
comes 10 securing a good place al tue
table. To had hardly recovered from the
enrnrise over losing the convention When
DwiQht Lawrence was dispatched 10 the
viarorious city with Instructions 20 get
the verv best there was going. This
ammissarv came west for purpose, anu
it looks as if he accomplished that pur-
pose fu manner that should secure lot
him the eternal friendship OF Cnauncey
N. Deoew, Warner Miller and the other
members OF the ''big four, ana t9e
other good livers who will come along
with them. The seventy-two delegates
and as many alternates from New YORK
viii hold forth al the West.
The West, with it's eight stories,
oneht 10 accommodate about LOOO
gpests. especially I'm such times as these.
Moro than half the space in the house
will be taken by 500 delegates aud alter
mates. A comparatively small part OF
the New York crowd will have 20 Oe
less aristocratic for q few days and be the
guests at the Holmes. very good and
CHEEKY house two blocks from the West
and further from the convention Inc
Michigan people are all right Iney
will number ffty-Six, delegates ana al
ternates. and they have managed 10 TX
things so that about every man mas
room e himself.
The big Pennsylvania aggregation
viii not mix with the New Workers, at
least they will not have 20, for they are
TO be housed 40 the Nicollet, three
blocks away. The next largest delega-
ton. that from Illinois, viii dwell with
the Pennsylvanias az the Nic0llet. There
will be no chance for friction between
the sherman and Foraker elements IN
the bunch OF fOrty-SiX delegates from
Ohio. for the fates have decreed that
half this party shall be at the West
while the other half shall feast at the
Nicollet. The thirty Harrison men from
Hoosierdom Will be an element IN the
great mix up at the West, where they
can confer at the breakfast table with
the twelve Blaine enthusiasts from
Maine or try to convince the twenty
four sons Of the Badger State that
Uncle Jerry Rusk is not IN 10 with
President Harrison as presidential tim
ber-at least Tor this heat.
The thirty delegates from the Bay
State will be neighbOrs at the West OF
the dozen gentlemen from the Nutmeg
State. The eight cotton men from
Rhode Island and the half dozen sturdy
wheat growers from North Dakota will
be across the hall from each other at
the West. and probably be able 10 agree
on q tariff schedule which will strike
the average. The twenty-SiX unin-
structed gentlemen from Iowa will have
the attention Of the West hotel crowd
until the little-but-Oh-my half dozen
cowboys from Idaho slide into town on
their favorlte bronchOs, and regale the
gentlemen FROM the east with some iu-
teresti yarns about those cattle
troubles. General Powell Clayton, the
one armed veteran from Arkansas, and
bis eleven colleagues, viii also bend the
elbow at the same table with the nota-
bles already mentioned.
The eight sons Of New Hampshire
we're scheduled for the West, but they
are likely 20 break bread as the guests
