ONE of the most stubbornly contested
conventions ever held in this county was
that of last Saturday. There was no
"bad blood" but determined fight on
the part of each candidate to secure the
nomination If it was among the possibili-
ties. The convention was called to order
promptly, and the chairman held ii 10 its
work almost without intermlssion and
still it was eight o'clock before its work
was completed The court house was
packed to its utmost capacity during the
entire time, but the best of feeling pre-.
vailed. The chief contest was for sheriff
1t soon became evident that success lay
between Dan Tracy and Henry Lehrman.
Tracey led on the first and Lehrman on
the second. Tracy took the lead on The
third and held it until he secured the
nomination. The next most spirited con-
test was for county clerk. which ended in
the nomination Of Joseph Weinfurther.
II took several ballots to decide the nomI-
nation for school superintendent, though
the successful candidate, 4. ". Dasser,
had the lead from the start.
The prolonged session interferred
great deal with the success OF the torch
light procession, as the convention had
not adjourned when the procession start
ed and about 200 people were in the
court house.

he speech Of Attorney General OCon-
nor at the Turner Opera House in this
city on Saturday last, was a masterpiece,
as remarkable for its moderation as for
it's mathematical exactness and logical
continuity. There was no attempt at
rhetoric, though passages were ele. ant
and all was forcible. 1t was candidly adj
mitted that the money expended by the
present administration was greater in
amount than during previous admins
trations, but it was shown clearly that
tins amount was for permanent improve
ments which the educational and other
needs OF the state demanded, many of
which should have been made long be-
fore, And still, Notwithstanding these
present state administration has so man
aged its finances that the tax levy is one.
fourth what it was in 1890. while the
amount which the state gives for school
purposes is more. The state tax paid by
Manitowoc county in 1890 was SIS, 561.
The state tax for this year is 81 400 or
$14,101 less than for the year 1880 The
amount of money which the county will
receive from the state from the tax levy
of 1894 is S20,2iS. The amount received
from the tax levy of 1890 was $18,9S3,
representing a gam to the county this
year in money received Of $3.50 Which
makes total gam to the county of Sl4,-
1877. That Is, the county WILL retain the
full amount of state tax which it raises
by taxation this year and besides receive
the sum of S9,977.
These are figures which DO not lie. Mr.
O'Connor made the proposition that if
his statements were doubted, a committee
might be appointed TO examine the rec
ords at Madison, and if what he stated
proved in any way incorrect, he would
pay the travelling expenses of The CON-
mittee and donate $50 toward the deaf
and dumb school of this city.
Mr.. O'Connor compared the receipts
frou trust funds under democratic and
republican administrations and charged
that the records VIII show that trust
funds were allowed TO lie in banks for a
| considerable length of time thus depriv.
ing the state of the income which was It's
due He was listened to with great at
| tention throughout and madea decidedly
| good impression.

THERE was a new departure in the con-
ventlon last Saturday in the matter of
making nominating speeches in two in
stances. There was disposition on the
part of some to crIticise this innovation,
but 1t would be we'll If it would become
a regular feature of future conventions
There was nothing said of opposing can
dldates but what was complimentary and
it is really creditable to the gentlemen
that they announced their choice openly.
There are few county conventions in the
state IN which nominating speeches are
not made and there is no good reason
why ManltOwOc county should not adopt
a custom which is so general and has so
many excellent features. The delegate
who is open IN his support is the one to
be trusted.
