could accept. but he would take the
latter under consideration and report
to the committee.
For county attorney Franklin En-
sign named Joseph Chadderton, Of
this city, a cousin to Judge French,
who has located here during the past
month. A. w. Wilcox, of Rock, gave
Mr.. Chadderton good certificate of
character and ability, and the gentle
man was named by reclamation.
e. q. Rodgers, of Delhi, named
Will Steele, one of the rustling young
farmers of that town, for sheriff, and
after several speeches endorsing the
nomination Mr.. Steele was nominated
by reclamation.
For gudge of Probate Mr.. Gilbert
moved to leave the place blank, but
Franklia Ensign said that if the mo-
ton was intended as boom for the
Republican nominee he was against
it; if for j B. Robinson it was alright.
Andrew Stewart thought that such
men as Mr.. Robinson should be en-
dorsed, after which T. L. Gilbert with
drew his motion, and as citizen OF
Redwood county he moved to endorse
Mr.. Robinson. Ensign seconded the
nomination and it went by acclama-
ton.
Here that fly got into Mr.. Arnold's
mouth. Angrily he spate it out, and
then moved that the convention en-
dorse H. F. Clipfell, the prosperous
and honorable farmer of Homer, for
register OF deeds. Gazing on the fly
he thought that Mr.. Clipfell's extra
prohibition plank was good one,aud
did not make the Peoples platform too
broad. The nomination was carried
by reclamation.
A bee buzzed around the bald spot
and Mr.. Arnold thought that he want
ed a lady candidate for superintend-
ent of schools. Thos. Barber thought
that Mr.. Races great interest in the
public schools ought to give him an
endorsement, but Arnold couldn't swal-
low that, because the bee told him that
Mr.. Race represented system at va
rance with Populistic ideas. Mr.. Bar
Der said that it was not an endorse
ment of Mr.. Races principles but his
interest in public schools. Gilbert,
the "Gales Red" called Mr.. Race a
rank plutocrat, who refused to give
him school. He thought the people
believed him to be good man, but he
was a rank partisan who he could not
endorse. At this juncture Andrew
Stewart hoped that his excellent friend
Wilcox would consider himself free to
talk, and Mr.. Wilcox wanted the con-
vention to endorse Emil Kuenzli for
treasurer. This was damper to An
drew, and the talk was cut short, Ar
mold and the bee moving to pass over
the nomination for superintendent of
schools.
DR.. G. P. Gibson, of this city, was
named for coroner, and the position
of surveyor was left blank. For COM
missioner in the Second Leo Aftermath,
of Willow Lake, was named, and in
the Fourth it was left blank for John
McPhee to fill, although Mr.. Arnold
stated that F. w. Philbrick was pref
ty badly tinctured with Peoples Party
ideas, and it might be wise to nomin-
ate him.
The Rural Center was here endorsed
as the Peoples Party paper and vote
of thanks was rendered to the school
district for the use of the schoolhouse.
