number OF delegates at the convention Cnder-Shern
Mr. Smith was defeated for the Shrievalty nomina-
ton hv only a few votes. HIS friends assert that
Sheriff Don't repeatedly promised to provide for him
when he assumed office, but so far the new Sheriff
ises beyond asking Mr.. Smith 10 hll a blank app-
cation for unsslaried deputy sher!nship.
