The delegates from Grand Forks

The delegates from Grand Forks
county will go into the state convention
for VIM. Bulge for governor, and they
will be for him first, last and all the
time. The fact that he didn't make
any canvass through the county at an
in his own behalf prior to the Larimore
convention, proves conclusively that the
sentiment for him must be natural, and
very strong at that. We are firmly of
the opinion thatif he is nominated at
the state convention, Grand Forks
county will roll up an enormous repub.
lican majority. Reynolds Enterprise.

IHE cOnYentl0noWhtchm met at Williams
port On Wednesday.to choose delegates to
the state and judicial conventions was a
departure in conventions in this county.
1t was dominated not so much by local
personal likes and dislikcs as by desire
to- send nen who would carry out the
wishes of those who supported them.
The opposition to Judge Winchester lost
its strengthen the convention as
sembled, and four old Union soldiers we're
sent to the judicial convention to assist IN
nominating their comrade. Walter H..
Winchester. There was no need what
ever of instructions, as every one of the
delegates u Judge Wlnchester's friend.
and seeh instructions were given simply
to show the overwhelming sentiment Of
the convention. But there was quite q
lively, though, ones lded. schmmage over
thaehoosingof delegates to Grand Forks.
The Roger Allin men. led by Dugald
Campbell and Henry Van Beck, put up
but three candidates for delegate posi-
tions - Nessrs. Campbell, Van Beck and
kC. 4. Patterson. They we're after the
scalp of the humble individual who writes
this paragraph. and placed Eve of the
candidates on the other ticket on their
ticket, 90 as to forcetthem ahead, hoping
that Mr.. Campbell, being personally pop
ular, might be one of their side to be
elected. 1t was welLlaid scheme. as
Mr.. Campbell in nearly every instance
secured the benefit Of name scratched
of BY somssyoter Of the other ticket.
But the plan cut both ways, and by vot-
ing for certain men on the ticket opposed
to them, Messrs. Campbell and Van Beck
made the election of such men certain.
The convention was remarkable for the
absence of anything like personal bitter
ness and antaEonism. As said before,
the anti Winchester men, in the face OF
overwhelming opposition, laid down and
took their medicine smilingly. The figh,
on delegates was not against individuals
as such. but against the action they would
take at the state eeonSeRtion. Henry Var
Beck was there with bis usual number OF
proxies; bnt. ss Van was an Ailiu man
and those he tried to defeat were not, We
fail to see. after due consideration Of all
the circumstances attending the contest
that Vans action showed any evidence Of

TWO STATE ELECTIONS.
Florida Will Elect State Officers Today
and Georgia TOmOrrOw...The Demo-
Gratis Claim Both States.

Atlanta. Ga. oct. 5.-Two important
state elections will take place in the
south during the present week. To-
morrow Florida will elect state officers.
and ON "Wednesday Georgia will choose
Il governor and other officials. Both
events will be- watched with great In
terest in all parts Of the country, as the
result may be taken as an indication Of
whether or not the solid south can be
broken in the November cyclone.
In Florida a governor. one justice of
the supreme court all the members of
thu house of representatives and six
teen members of the senate are to be-
chosen. In addition, county officials
are also to be elected. There are three
complete state tickets in the field
Democratic. Republican and POpulist
For the chief magistracy the Demo-
cratic candidate is former Governor W.
ID. Bloxham; the Republican nominee
il r.. X. Gunby, and the Populists have
named State Senator A. w. Weeks
That the Democratic ticket will he
elected is conceded by the leaders Of
each party. the only difference being
as to the size of the plurality.
THE GEORGIA ELECTION.
Georgias state election is important,
from the fact that 1t is the boast OF the
Democratic leaders that they will roll
up for their ticket majority which
will answer that which came from
Maine. There Is every reason to believe
that from conservative and careful
estimate gathered from reports from
each county in the state. Governor At
kinson will receive at least 10000 plur-
ality over Seaborn A. Wright who Is
the Populist and Prohibition nominee.
Two years ago Governor Atkinson had
a plurality of u little over $4,000. This
year Georgia. for the first time, acts
under general registration law.

FIREMEN AT JOHNSTOWN
SCrantOn's Delegation Is at Work
in the Interest OF the Elec.
trio City.

Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Johnstown, Pa, Oct. 5.-The Scran-
ton delegation consisting of twelve
persons arrived here last night at l.59,
after delightful trip. The party i'm
mediately proceeded to the Capitol
where quarters had been engaged in
advance. This morning all rose early
and proceeded to the Farview ceme-
terry where eight hundred unidentified
dead are buried. To reach the place it
was necessary to accend nine hund-
red feet in a carriage hoisted up an
inclined plane by two powerful cables.
The various engine houses We're then
inspected and We're found to be equal
to those in Scranton.
At o'clock the first delegation of
any size arrived from Pittsburg and
Homestead. They were Immediately
followed by the Wilkes-Barre delega-
tions headed by the Ninth Regiment
band, about fifteen Wilkes Barre fire.
men were in the crowd. The balance
being made up of Pittston, Edwards
vile and Nanticoke tiremen. The
Shamokin train consisting of two
coaches was attached to the Wilkes
Barre train. Refreshments We're served
on the train to all persons under the
care of Stegmaier free of charge, but
the Shamokin crowd who declared for
Scranton was compelled to pay much
to their disgust.
The Philadelphia delegation arrived
at 4.47. In the crowd was Hon. James
Clarency, Chief Baxter, Assistant Chief
Nallinger. Vice President Harper, and
fifty-two members of the paid depart
ment. In the same train was Secretary
W. w. Wunder and wife of Reading,
eX-President Brooks and many of the
old familiar faces to be seen at each
years convention.
Scranton is doing much work for Sc
curing the convention in '97 and not
withstanding that money is being
freely used by Wilkes Barre. the fight
ing chances seem about even. Tonight
the caucus will take place and the re-
suit will be told in the next dispatch.

and yet he had presided over a cOnven-
tion which denounced that very act
Continuing on this subject, Mr. Har-
rison said:
Have you ever heard anything from the
candidate of the Chicago convention? Has
he ever said in any speech he has made
that II he should be chosen president of
the United States that he would execute
the law as Mr.. Cleveland executed II?
He has not said 1t, but he has accepted
every word and sentence of the Chicago
convention and is there in effect pledged
that If he should be president and in
New York or Chicago or any other great
center of population. a mob should lift
the red flag of anarchy and stay the
progress of your mails, he would not in
terfere until the governor of the state
asked him to. Citizens of Virginia, what
ever may have been your party affiliations,
are you prepared for that?
The remainder of Mr.. Harrisons
speech was devoted to the discussion of
the financial question in it's various
phases.
