nomination Of Congressman Hiram r.

people OF this state have a most ag-
gressive. industrious, painstaklng, nf-
fable and able representative.
Il am also more than pleased with
the selection of II. Coleman DUPONT as

scented TO accept the post. He is a
man Of great executive ability, and

Senator Alice Holds Hls County.

In view Of the many reports about
how Kent county would stand on a
line-up OF the friends and opponents Of
Senator Alice, II was a great surprise
to many that the opposition TO Alice
proved 80 weak. II was said that he
would not be able to retain his place
on the State committee, yet IN the
Kent caucus, which he controlled from
start to finish, he and two Of his
friends were elected as the three mem-
bers OF the State committee by a large
majority representing Kent county.
T. c. dupont the Leader.
The capacity Of T. Coleman dupont
as party leader was put to a severe
test. II IS safe to say that without his
conservative action and careful direc-
tion the convention would not have
passed or so harmoniously and sue
cessfully. His tact ana effective
handling was manifest at every turn,
and Il Is not pleasant to contemplate
what might have happened had he not
been here. BY both sides he was rec
ognized as the leader and whenever
anything got hopolessly tangled his
aid was sought and his advice fol-
lowed.
