Was Very Strong Among Republicans Al
State Convention
That there was an undereuTTent Of De-
Boer sentiment at the state convention
which threatens to carry both Staut0u and
Bell off their feet before convention time
in June, is shown by the following re-
ports BY different newspaper men who
were there:
Truth compels us 10 say that one Of the
most noticeable features Of the Tepnbll-
can gatherings was the frequency with
which the name Of the Hon. Joseph A.
DeBoer was favorably suggested ia con-
neotion with possible solution Of the gov
ernorshlp situation Mr.. DeBoer is noted
for his independence In thought and ac-
ton, and perhaps for that very reason,
some Of the political leaders would not look
With favor upon bis nomination, but that
very fact also tends TO commend him TO
the people. Expression OF sentiment In
this connection almost invariably takes the
form Of wish that be might be the re-
publican standard-beare and II all the
other candidates remain in the field SO as
to ensure a fight in the State convention to
be held June 80, 1t would not surprise
many people to see DeBoer selected as a
compromise candidate Free Press edi-
torial
Itwas evident without question that
among the men who participate actively
in politics stanton was more In favor than
Bell, al 1t was also evident neither would

It is not too much to say that the pro
posal of DeBoer's name was especially
gratifying to the younger members Of the
party -St. Albans Messenger editorial.
Up to noon soaaf but little had been
