State Conventions.

head. A full delegation to the ma
tional convention was elected, with
Bryan at the head OF 1t. ard every

SO and kept his mouth shut. I'M

men that the Jacksonian club well
coined back into the fold will have
now to return to the republican party
again, for the convention was Bry-

insane and unsound," especially on the
money question.
The Parker men controlled the state
convention in Michigan and Georgia
| and Hearst will not get vote from
either state. A new Cleveland inter-
view has appeared in which he says
| that Parker was not his first choice,
| (no doubt that is true, the ex-presi-
dent himself was always his first
choice), but that he had Endorsed Par
ker because he thought all the fac
lions would support him.
The republican state convention of
Illinois, after voting for two weeks
trying to nominate a governor adj
| journed for ten days and came to-
| eether again. This time they have
been at 1t for three days and are just
where they were when they first be-
gan. with no prospects for nominal
ton In sight. This Is simply vulgar
fight for the offices and the spells OF
tho state government, no principle nj
all being involved. All the candl-
dates. of which there are about half
a dozen. are corporation and national
