the Republican convention to be held

dicated today.
For some time 1t had been under
stood that the candidates would not
file petitions, but would stand by the

a petition, thus bringing others into

er or not the candidates will be able
to withdraw their names from the

provisions of the attorney generals
ruling, which holds that nominations
must be by petition.
