LOOKS LIKE JACOBSON.

convention.
+ Upon The assumption that the unpurchased
and untrammeled sentiments OF the delegates
find EXPRESSION there seems no room to doubt
that, after the usual complimentary vote has
been cast by varions sections for their local
jfavorites decisive majority vote will be given
Jacobson It is even possible that the senti-
ment will so unfold and develop that his nomi-
nation will come with rising vote without the
the fornalty Of a roll call
| Local prudence in many counties has re-
suited in uninstructed delegations SO that only
those familiar with the prevailing sentiment
may correctly accredt the vote for governor,
but of these Jacobson is in most cases the first
choice and in nearly all of them is the warm
second choice, SO that when the real sentiment
is expressed it will reveal him IN possession OF
/ large majority of the convention and its
nominee for governor of Minnesota. That he
will be triumphantly elected and that he will
make a conservative and popular executive are
beyond the slightest doubt.
The pre-convention battle has been a good
one, fought upon Just the ceau lines which
might have been expected from the personnel
of the candidates Seven prominent and justly
am btious republicans have submitted to the
party their claims and hopes. But one can be
chosen and when that act is accomplished each
of the other six will be captain in the army
working for his electon-St. Paul Dispatch.

handicapped by doubtful support and is
viewed with suspicion by the balance of the
field. The book-makers are watching the
course work of the slate makers. On to Duluth
