The State Repulliear convention met
"Wednesday in the hall Of the house Of
representatives. For three days prior
to the convention hot fight has been
waged as to the State Craftsmanship.
Deas, always one of Webster's right
hand men, colored man led, the fight
and he is on top. He has been made
State chairman, being the first to hold
the place since Robt. Elliott. The cen
ventiou was nearly three hours late IN
assembling owing to the fight going on.
When it vas called to order Deas stat
ed that he had Hon mis- battle and the
convention would amount to nothing
more than ratification of what had
been accomplished. Such proved to be
the case, and Webster, Tolbert and
other white leaders step aside so far as
this convention and the State organize
ton are concerned, Small defeating
Wheeler, white man, for vice chair,
man.
