Wolff puts his own constiuction on the fail

many republicans thought their chance had
come to down Hay e.s and so favored making
O'Meara theli candidate also. When their
convention met the majority nominated
O'Meara , but the inlnonty , ssho had ten
votes less , insisted that they
must nominate a .straight icpublicaiit and
falling to have the convention do so. ssilh-
diew and nominated Sam Kirkwood , the old
sv-or goveinor , svho is very popular all over
losva. So now the lepublicans ot the dlstiict
aie suppoi ting two candidates one a thor-
oughbied i ( 'publican and the other a Knight
ol Labor Uemociat. The latter aio the ex
treme prohibitionists , svho think that it Is of
more impoifance to beat Hayes than It is to
.stand by their colois whether they win or
lose. A good deal ot haul lecling has been
developed , one .side calling tlie other side
bolteis , and the other ictoitlng by calling
them dcserleis svho have abandoned their
flag to gain a little temporary advantage by
uniting with the enemy.
