gressional Delegates.
No Opposition to Delegates to
State Convention.
Pursuant to call Of chairman, a dele
gate convention of the Republicans Of
Mile Lacs county was held at the vii
lage hall, Pripceton, Saturday at / P.
M. Mr.. G. H. Rines, chairman of Re-
publican county committee read the
call.
On motion of r. G. Dunn, T. H. Ca
ley was unanimously elected chairman,
and L. S. Briggs reluctantly accepted
the secretaryship. VIM. Bouck was
also nominated for chairman by r..
Bailey, but the nomination received no
second and the chairman did not put
the motion.
On motion the chair appointed a
committee of three on credentials.
Said committee consisted of G. H..
Rines, Princeton; S. M Orton, Green
bush; and VIM. Bouck, Milaca. The
committee after due deliberation SUBJ
mitted the following unanimous report
which was accepted: .

mission to cast four votes of town.
South Harbor: Arthur T.. Snow and
Joseph VanCourt, with permission to
cast four votes of town. zs.A
Milo: 81. P. Lund and A. D. Jesmer.
Right here it might be we'll to re-
mark that the committee did not rec
ognize proxies. Only those present in
person from the towns which they
claimed as their residence were recog-
nized. Mr.. Bouck was chairman of the
Milaca caucus, and that caucus had
adopted a resolution instructing for
Kendall delegates to the congressional
convention. But Mr.. Bouck acquiesced
in the report of the committee. Any
how, he did not offer a minority report.
On motion, the chair appointed as a
committee to prepare a list of delegates
to the congressional and State conven-
tions H. Newbert, of Princeton; VIM.
Orton, of Greenbush; and A. D. Jes-
mer, of Milo. The committee reported
as follows: Delegates to the congress-
ional convention at Duluth, G. IT.

E. N. Bacon, Arthur L. Snow, H. New
bert, r. F. Mcclellan and L. S. Briggs
Delegates to the State convention: r.
c. Dunn, A. D. Jesmer, J. L. Brady
J. 4. D. Sadley, VIM. Orton and A. f:
Howard. The report of the committee
was adopted by the convention with
but two or three dissenting voices
The dissenters objected to the Duluth
delegates only.
On motion the convention adjourned
SINE die.
The above is an impartial report Of
the proceedings of the convention.
Immediately after the convention
adjourned, Messrs. J. T. D. Sadley, H.
P. Lund and Josiah Wilbur met in a
room in the Commercial House with
Hon. Fl. G. Kendall and Mr.. Sam
Phillips, of Duluth, and elected a con-
testing delegation to the Duluth con-
vention. The contestants are, j. r. d.
sadley, VIM. McCuaig, r. Bailey, E.
S. Clinch, James P. Mitchell, J. T..
Wilbur, Hans P. Lund and Frank W.
Hawkinson.
The regular delegation is solid for
Judge Searle. The contestants are
favorable to Mr.. Kendall. We do not
for moment imagine that the con-
testants intend to contest for seats in
the Duluth convention. It is simply
a bluff.
