was overwhelmed by superior num-
bers and beaten in detail.
Small Goes to Lowden.
Senator Zen Small, who had stood
by the governor all during the battle
OF the day before. had served notice
on him that he was going TO Lowden
with Kankakee county. The defec-
ton OF Iroquois was known to the
governor.
III each of the two candidates were
TO continue 10 fight independently il
was plain the Lowden people must
win.
Accordingly before the convention
was called TO order Deneen and Yates
met In the arsenal building. Lawrence
Y. Sherman and Gen. Hamlin we're
called In. The thing to be done was
to gain time for counsel. and that
was had by the convention taking a
recess till the afternoon. the new COM

Governor Forgives and Forgets.
Then the four candidates-Deneen,

II was suggested either James A.
Rose. present secretary OF state. or
Sect Cowan would be acceptable.
The governor said that he did not
know that Mr.. Cowan was candi-
date. and that within the last few
hours he had promised Mr.. Rose his
support, and he would ask that Rose
be renominated. This was promised.
Lowden Forces Combination
Col. Lowden contested the nominal
ton TO the end and went down with
522H followers behind him. One vote
was cast for Yates by the ever faith
full Mai. Adams of Adams county and
twenty-one for Col vespasian War
ner on the final ballot.
The withdrawal Of the candidates.
was brought about by the strength
shown by Col Lowden on Thursday
and the threat that perhaps he would
do better. On his highest vote Thurs
day he needed only 121 votes for vic
tory. He had fallen back on subse-
quent ballots. but Thursday nigth his
forces were rallied again and more
votes were promised him. Speaker
Cannon had rallied his entire con-
gressional district. the Eighteenth.
and Friday morning the delegates
from Iroquois and Kankakee were
guaranteed. That meant twenty
seven more votes and 1t was reported
Fulton county, with fifteen, would be
added. Votes which had been given
to Pierce and Warner were expected
to swell his total.
II looked as IL Lowden would be
nominated on the second il not on the
first ballot.
Early Friday morning Gov. Yates
sent word to Mr.. Deneen that he could
not hold his people much longer
against the onslaughts of the Lowden
forces. The Deneen ranks in Chicago
were still unbroken, but the Lowden
men we're breaking through the Yates

received on the final decisive ballot
522s votes.
So ended the most stubbornly
fought political contest this or Gny
other state ever has known.
Once a candidate for governor had
been named the convention took a re-
cess until evening before nominating
candidates for minor offices.
Yates Suggests Sherman.
In making mp the slate for minor
offices a caucus was held In the even
ing at the executive mansion. at
which Mr.. Deneen. Gov. Yates, Attor-
ney General Hamlin and ex-Speaker
Sherman were present. The caucus
took up the matter of lieutenant gov
ernor first
Sherman said he would like to have
William Il. Trautmann of St Clair
nominated. To this Gov. Yates en-
tcrcu ODJeCtlouS, saying MS ilithuo
in the southern part of the state
would not stand for this largely be-
cause of the course pursued by Con-
gresham Rodenberg of st. Clair.
Il would rather see Sherman nom
mated" suggested the governor.
This was the first suggestion that
had been made to nominate Sherman
for lieutenant governor. Sherman
at first hesitated and said he would
like to have an opportunity to consult
his friends. II was not until an hour
or two later, after he had talked the
matter over with his friends. that he
consented to accept the nomination.
Governor Given Three Places.
There was no disagreement as to
the denomination of James s. McCul-

nor was then conceded the right 10
