Lawler stock is looking up in the
Hennepin delegation. The sentiment
took turn yesterday through the
starting of boom for Saltwater man,
Judge j. G. Nethaway, for attorney
general. This, by removing the posi-
bility of Ramsey county getting two
places on the ticket, turned a good
many votes toward Lawler which had
been classed as scattering" before.
Judge Nethaway has hosts of friends in
Minneapolis, and some of his best friends
are on the Hennepin delegation. The
Hennepin people do not understand that
NGthaway is an active candidate, but
they have been told that NethawaY
would accept if nominated. They were
assured yesterday that the solid Wash
Ington county delegation would favor
Nethaway's claims. and that he would
have good many votes in the Ramsey
delegation. Straightway they began
working for Nethaway in the Hem
nepin delegation, and last night they
reported that the Saltwater man
bad strong following in Hennepn
county. Then LAWYERS stock began to
rise. Last night he seemed to have
greater strength in the delegation than
week. The Cnamplin men are still
standing by their colors, but their adj
vocacy of the man from the south is
half-hearted. They seem to be support
ing ChampliE because they have no one
else to support.
Yesterday afternoon a portion of the
delegation met in the mayors office in
the city hall and began arrangements
ff,r In II 81, Il
convention of tomorrow. Committees
on reception and to provide badges were
appointed. The seemingly real purpose
OF the gathering was to arrange for
caucus Of the delegation. The PROPOSE
ton to hold a caucus last night was
voted down by those delegates
who were there. The delegation will
now meet this afternoon at 2 o'clock
The rooms of the delegation in the
Nicollet house will be open from
this morning until the last
delegate goes home tonight. 1t
is limited by the friends OF
LAWYER that the attempt to force eau
Gus last night, although when the dele
ton organized after the caucus it voted
to meet this afternoon for that purpose,
was really a movement to get part of
the delegates into caucus. without the
presence of the strict LaWler men, and
then bind a majority, including the I'M
decided members of the delegation, to
some other man than LAWYER.
