aside from nominating their represent

Torrance was nominated, but withdrew
his name before a vote was taken. The
representatives nominated we're. Z. E..
Smith. of the Eighth ward, and John
Baston, of st. Louis Park, as the coun-
try member.
The result of these legislative conven-
tionS is favorable to Washburn. Only
in one district, the Thirty-tnird, was
there any opposition to him, and there
it was quickly squelched. The "nomi-
mated" Hennepin delegation will. there
fore, support Washburn in solid pha-
lanx. Resolutions were passed at the
various conventions declaring for him.
