Yesterdays Caucus in Orleans County

Such returns as we have been able
to receive from the caucuses in Or
leans county indicate that the county
will send practically a solid Fletcher
delegation to the state convention.
DeBoer showed some strength in Bar
ton and few other towns, but there
was no organization behind the De-
Boer sentiment. Outside of the Bar
ton delegation the county elected
Plumley delegates to the Second dis
trict convention.
The Newport senatorial fight result
ed in the election of Blanchard tick
ct by large majority over the Bean
ticket which came into the field very
late. H. A Black won the Newport
delegation in the county convention
over A. Fl. Grout by close vote. In
the Glover senatorial scrap Fl. N.
Davis won over the Vance ticket by a
good margin. Most of the other
towns elected uninstructed delegations
to the county convention which is to
be held in Barton. July l. w. A.
Dane of Newport has been selected by
the county committee to act as chair
man Of the convention.
