Boilers From the Fourth Judicial
District Convention Take Action.

ANOKA. Mimi, Aug. 2S.-The boiling ju-
dicial delegates from Wright and Anoks
counties met here today. strong senti-
ment was expressed against the disfran-
chisement of the voters OF the outside coun-
ties OF the district by the action of the Hen
nepin county convention, and these resolu-
lions were passed:
That we consider the nominations made at
the so-called Republican convention of the
Fourth judicial district not made by a
convention representative of the district. That
no nominations have been made which are
binding upon any Republican outside of Hen
nepin county, and that. in default of such
nominations. it is the duty of every Repub-
lican to vote at the polls for the men whom
he considers as best qualified for seats upon
the bench. That we recommend to our con-
stituents that they vote for the present
judges, Seagrave Smith and Charles M Pond,
for the reason that their experience, legal
ability and judicial fairness entitle them to
a reelection.
The delegates will meet again in Mime
apolis during the carnival to take further
action.
