MR.. PETIIGREW
OLD.LINE MEN AFTER SCALP OF
FORMER SENATOR.
Why the Convention for Lincoln
County Tomorrow Is of First Inn
pOrtance to Democratic Partizans-
Burke Pushing Him Hard for a
Seat in the National Convention.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The JOURNAL -r ..e--1
Canton, 8. D., March 1.-THE demo-
cratic county convention to be held at
Fairview tomorrow afternoon is Of espe-
cial interest, because Thomas H. Burke
will stand as a. candidate against ex-
Senator Pettigrew for delegate to the st.
Louis convention. Burke's friends are the
aold-line democrats, not only in this coun-
ty, but in other parts of the district. (,
| The old-school democrats seem to dis
trust Pettigrew almost to a man, while
the pops, who have fed to the dem ocratic
party for want Of anywhere else to go,
are determined that Pettigrew shall be
recognized at the state convention the
last of this month.
Burke is chairman of the county central
committee Of this county and his friends
will have control of the convention at the
outset, but 1t is feared that the Petit
grew crowd will break in upon them and
| divest them Of their possessions.
! Burke is accused by the Pettigrew con-
| tingent Of calling the convention in q
little out-of- the-way place where it will
| be impossible for many to attend. Burke's
men deny this story, but the Pettigrev
! element is threatening all sorts of things
if Burke is 1ndorsed It is the genera
| impression here that if Burke can gel
the delegation from his own county hi
will have sufficient following in the state
convention to win the day.
