said to have developed in the field of
local Republican politics as a result
of the withdrawal from the delega-
torial fight of Gen. Andrew 6. Burt
and his running mate, Mr.. Patterson.
The event has stirred up considerable
comment and some excitement, and
many local party leaders were found
to be on the qui vive for later devel-
opments this afternoon.
The temper of some Of the inter
ested parties is shown in the follow
