Grinnell. June IA caucus has been
called by the committee, of all demo-
Gratis in the city and township of
Grinnell, to meet at the superior court
room at o'clock on Thursday evening,
June 2.
A call was issued for republican
caucus to be held last evening of the
various wards of the city, but owing
to the fact that the notice did not get
into the Register at aall because Of
their getting out the Monday issue
! in the forenoon, and also that, because
of unusual delays. the Herald was not
off the press yesterday until 4:20, the
call was not generally seen and but
very few were present. The Third and
Fourth wards met at the city hall room
but took no action. The First and Sec
ond wards met at the superior court
room, but owing to the small number
from the Second ward no action was
taken on their part In the case of
the First ward the progressives, the
most prominent of whom had been ac-
tive in the ''Progressive-R Republican"
caucus called by them last week. came
and taking things into their hands,
presented the same list of delegates
| that had been named by them the
week before and had a sufficient num-
| Der present to elect the same. The
action is denounced by many as not
according to the rules of the game and
there is possibility of further action
along this line.
