ton and Republic counties. Judge F.
w Sturgis of Concordia got into the
race a few days ago, but Instructions
for him in the Cloud county conven-
ton yesterday were voted down by a
vote of 80 to 81, which would seem to
indicate that Cloud will not tie up to
him. The elimination of Sturgis will
leave the fight between W. T. Dillon
of BeIleville and T. P. Rooney OF
Washington. 1t is alleged that Dillon
was in control of the Cloud county
convention sufficiently to prevent in
structions for Sturgis, and he claims
all but two of the Cloud county dele
cation, which would nominate him.
Rooney, however, claims five Cloud
county delegates, which would tie him
with Dillon. Dillon has the best of it
because Republic and Cloud are in
the same senatorial district and Cloud
has the nominee for state senator this
year, and Republic is insisting on
Cloud county helping Dillon in the
judicial fight.
