The conduct and subsequent with.
drawal of Fred N. Kretschmer oil
Dubuque as a candidate for the re.
publican nomination for state
treasurer, has created considerable
commotion in the ranks of the pro-
gressive republicans. Out of court.
esy to him the Dubuque county
convention, Of which very large
majority of The delegates were pro-
gressives, and with the understand.
ing that he belonged to that wing of
the party. accorded him the privilege
of naming the delegates to the state
convention. After the convention,
and before he named the delegates,
he went to Washington and It was
reported mad a conference with
Senator Allison. Upon his return
home, he named a delegation, it is
said, that is almost wholly favorable
to The standpat candidate for COVER
nor, and then published letter
withdrawing his own candidacy for
state treasurer, in which he says:
The nation has 10 better champion
OF republicanism than Senator
Allison, and it is evide 1T that nv
candidacy may embarrass him in
the future. His removal from the
senate would prove calamity to the
nation. That the party may stand
united behind Senator Allison, | am
impelled to, and do, withdraw as a
candidate for the office of treasurer
of state, and now retire from the
field" Report is current that Kret-
schmer is to be rewarded for his
alleged treachery, by his appoint
ment to federal Office. But in an
interview last F day, Senator
Allison is reported as saving that,
if Kretschmer had been promised
such an appointment it was entirely
without his knowledge; that he does
notapprove of Kretschmer's selection
of a standpat delegation, that both
the standpatters and progressives
have manv followers in Dubuque
county ana "the delegation should
have been divided between Perkins
and Cummins. It is however more
than probable that Kretschmer has
received assurances satisfactory to
him that he will be compensated for
the sacrafice he has made, if not he
is a notable exception to seekers
after political preferment. /
