on lts way up endeavOring TO secure :
solid delegation from the south for

be made to demorallzn 1he delegates In
his favor thus working q snap judg-
ment on the convention. The night
seems now lined up between MORRISON
and Cooding. Governor Morrison has
opened headquarters across the street
from the hotel In the postofnce build

with visitors and friends Of the govern
or. All the prominent public ofncials
