Just one man in Kenosha county has
the assurance that he is going to see
the Republicans of the nation make
president at the big convention to
be held in Chicago next month, and
that man is the Hon. Peter NJ Ander-
son, member of the assembly from Ke-
nosha county. He is going to have
chance to attend every session of the
convention, no matter how long it
lasts or how crowded the seats may
be. He has been selected as one of
the assistant sergeant-at-arms for Wis
consin and his appointment has been
made by the men in charge of organic
ing the official forces of the convention
Assemblyman Anderson is going to
be working assistant" at that, and
he will report for duty on the first
day Of the convention and remain I'M
til it is all over and the candidates
for president and vice president are
named.
Four Tickets for Kenosha.
One, two, three, four. Count 'eml
This is the number of tickets for the
national convention said TO have been
assigned to Kenosha and there is no
assurance that they will ever be de-
livered. Kenosha is just ffty-three
miles from the front door of the con-
lvention hall, but it is not certain that
Kenosha people will get a chance to see
the making ~ the next prs sident
The distribution of the tickets in
Wisconsin has been turned over to
Alfred 7. Rogers of Madison, and the
total number of spectator tickets has
been placed at severty-fye. It is de-
clared that Rogers already has appli-
cations for hundred times this num-
Der, and that the city of Madison alone
has enough prominent Republican,
LEADERSHIP take all of them. Mr.. Rogers
has shown no tendency TO prefer his
honc town before the rest of the state
but it is certain that there will not
be tickets enough to go round.
Just who will get TIE four tickets
alleged to have been set aside for the
Republican party in Kenosha is not
apparent. 1t is certain no one has re-
ccived any Of them yet. The press
director of the convention has given
the assurance that one ticket will be
furnished for the press in Kenosha and
they may divide it up any way they
see fit provided it comes in time for
the convention. Letters sent to the
publicity directors OF the convention
have been answered by the statement
that there is a call for forty tickets
for each seat in the press section.
Bombarding Randall.
Republicans all over the First Dis
trict have been bombarding Congress-
man c. E. Randall to get them tick
let to the convention. Many of them
want family tickets on which they may
take their whole families The con-
gresham has not as yet been honored
with ticket for his own admission
to the convention and there is no as
surance that in the great demand for
tickets there will be enough left over
to provide for the Republican mem
bers of Congress
1t is said that even contributors to
the campaign fund are having a hard
time to get the coveted pasteboards
this year and. that the shortage of
paper may have been the cause for the
shortage of tickets. Delegates to the
convention Will be entitled to two
tickets. They must present one of
them at the door when they go in to
vote and the other may be handed to
Friend Wife or some other persons
wife, Alternate delegates will be en-
titled to just one ticket and it will be
of the personal" kind and not trans
