OUT OF POLITICS

that he Is out OF politics and does talk
but. referring 10 affairs in Minnesota he said MY
State Is for Mckinley There is a predomlna ting

Colonel Thomas Lowry. of Minnesota, with
Senator Washburn. Colonel Lowry one OF
the first Mckinley boomers In the State of flour
and wheat fields. He says that the sentiment for
Mckinley in the Northwest is strong and growing,
to the ' case Of senator Peigrew in South Dakota
as example OF the Mckinley feeling and added:

much puzzled over General Grosvenors figures. and
said that while Re had studied the situation care

Mr. Crane admitted the strong Mckinley sent-

Mckinley people. and remarked that the Ohio man

Major Mckinley is nominated he will be supported

nublcans OF my district"
James s Clarkson said yesterday that his
figures did give within hundred the
number OF delegates that General Grosvenor
claimed for Mckinley. The trouble Is that CLINT
of sunshine has stolen into General Grosvenor's
figuring and set him wrong" he continued. when
one Is enthusiastic II II easy to take things for
granted lie says that Mckinley has $50 delegates
doub. whether he actually has within a hundred OF
that number In all probability Mckinley will have
the largest number OF any Of the candidates on the
frst ballot but that does not Insure the nomination
Senator Sherman had the most votes on the first
ballot in 1885, but he was not nominated. think
Senator Allison still has an excellent chance"
