he does not think It would be Wise to

tho state has generally instructed. and
where there are several good men rum
Ming for the nomination.. I think It
aould be the part of wisdom to allow
Tho delegates 20 to the convention abso-

Hearst capturing the convention. that Is,
OF his getting enough delegates TO pre-
