ton. do not believe in any hard and
fast order that would place halter
about the uecks OF the delegates and
make them vote tor certain men for
county Offices irrespective Of everything
that might transpire during the DELHI
eratiOns of the convention. II the men
VIC mention should stand no show in
the convention, then II is time for our
delegates to draw down and pick out
the best men. II all the precincts
would follow out this rule, We would
have convention that would be noted
