EDDY CLAIMS THE
BALANCE OF POWER

Frank M. Eddy, who has been a re-
scept1ve candidate for governor for some
months, came down from GlenWood
last night with the Pope county dele
cation behind him. In addition to
Pope, he has Douglas with 10, and
Swift with IL more, or a total, of Sc
delegates at his command.
Il maintain that with my votes stay
ing with me to the end, l will have
the balance of power in the state con-
Vention and can prevent the nomina-
ton of either Dunn or Collins. And LET
1t be understood that I am still a re-
ceptlVe candidate and I think that I
would make a pretty good governor.

publicans of Minnesota should make

p r
The uncertain complexion Of the con-
vention and the fact that in many Of
the precincts there were contesting
delegations intensified the interest
taken by the managers and delegates,
and when the first real test of strength
came it was seen that the Collins fac
ton controlled the convention.
Wilson Elected Chairman
BY vote of 292 to 279 Gen. George
z. Wilson, the candidate of the Collins
forces, was chosen as temporary
chairman over Charles H. HUM, the
Dunn man. A perfect uproar followed
the announcement of the result, and
the chaotic conditions continued until
the Dunn men were out of the con-
Vention.
When the Dunn men saw that the
chairman was permitting the con-
tested delegations to vote on this roll
call, or at least those who favored
Collins, there was a wild protest. but
1t was made in vain, and Gen. Wilson
was declared elected. Even then the
Dunn forces remained at their posts,
believing they had working majority
in the convention if given fair treat
ment by the committee on credentials,
but the committee was named from
among the Collins supporters and the
manner in which they decided the

have been the undoing of the conven-
ton.
AS contest after contest was set
tied, always the Collins delegation to
be seated, the Dunn men demanded
fair play, and when their demands
were drowned out by the yelling, or
were ignored, the Dunn men bolted
the convention. The Collins forces
remained in session and selected dele
gates and the Dunn men oroaniZed
another convention and selected a set
Of Dunn delegates, both delegations
claiming to be the regularly and le-
gally elected body. They will come
over to st. Paul tomorrow and it will
be another contest to add to the many
that the state convention already has
on hand.
In the Collins delegation a resolu-
ton was adopted indorsing President
Roosevelt, Judge L. W. Collins and de-
claring for Ray w. Jones for lieuten-
ant governor.

Talk Of Permanent Chairman
Talk of a permanent chairman of the
convention has begun to take form and
substance. c. A Morey, of Winona,
was mentioned as the Dunn candidate
for the place some days ago, but said
he had not been invited to act William
f. Lee. who carried his home county
of Todd triu1nphantly for Dunn, has
also been urged for the place by some
or his friends among the Dunn work
ers, but the managers have guarded
the secret of their slate pretty care
fully and only conjectures can be
made.
Had the Collins people carried Ram
sey county without contest, it is said
that they would have urged Oscar
Hallam, hut as Hallam is a member of
one of the contesting delegations, it
probably puts him out of the running.
The Collins managers refused last
night to indicate whom they would
propose. 1t is. said that Senator Ripley
=, Brewer of st. Cloud, will place Judge
Collins in nomination
Both Princeton and st. Cloud will
send big delegations to ST. Paul to
boost" for their favorite sons on the
day of the convention. Special rail-
road accommodations have been secur-
ed and the rooters will bring a band
each to st. Paul, and make every
effort to arouse enthusiasm among the
delegates for their home candidates.
Things promise to be lively about the

Of the grave danger of an open rup-
ture that confronts the Republican
party in holding it's state convention
Loyal Republicans are endeavoring by
every means at their command to
placate the fighting factions, but with
very slight hopes of success, and are
awaiting the result of the Thursday
convention with anything but pleasant
anticipations.- 1t is feared by men who
have been watching the course of
events in the state that the party has
reached the crisis in its history so far
as Minnesota is concerned, and if it
weathers thea present storm it can
thank some other influence than that
of its own wisdom.

position where he cannot very we'll
side-step the unpleasant task, and one
of his friends said yesterday Clapp is
in for it, and no matter how he may
strive to be fair and impartial he will
be making enemies whatever else he
does. 1t is possible that Judge Jami-
son may retain the gavel until he has
gotten the wheels moving or the bolt
has taken place, but this procedure
would put the junior senator in the
light of one afraid to face the music
and it is doubtful which horn of the
dilemma is worst in it's effects.

Like in Ramsey, it was the climax Of
one of the most stubborn fights ever

Republicans of Minneapolis, if not to
the entire state.
For weeks both factions have been

have made a square fight and
my friends have nothing deroga-
tory to say of Judge Collins. We
have endeavored to conduct a
clean campaign, and we are now
content to leave my cause to the
arbitranent of the state conven-
ton. The returns from the coun-
ty conventions show that the
sentiment of the people of the
state is overwhelmingly in my
favor, and that the popular
choice is for my nomination.
The Hennepin county convention,
with a majority of IA in my fa-
vor, was seized upon by my OPP
ponents, who were able to act SO
by reason of being in control of
the local organization, although
they claim majority of only 6.
My friends in Hennepin carried
the wards of the city of Mime
apoiis in which the workingmen
live, and the condition in Ram
sey county is similar. My
friends do not expect to submit
to frauds or Irregularities in the
state convention. If the primary
election system extended to cleo
tions for state offices, would
have carried the state by three
to one, the cities and the coun-
try alike. only ask for fair
play, and | expect that the dele
gates in the state convention will
give it to me.
1t is intensely gratifying to me
that | have received such strong
and unanimous support from a
majority of the counties of the
state, and ! desire to thank my
friends for the splendid and loyal
support they have given me.

afternoon, and as result the 113 votes
from that county will be among the
contests that will have to be settled in
the state convention when it meets to-
morrow.
The bolt in Minneapolis came at a
time when the report of the commit
tee on resolutions was being made, and
after repeated appeals had been made
in vain to the chair to do justice to the
Dunn contestants in the rulings. Leav-
