Every feeling and expression of dissatif action with the work of the convention by disappointed candidates for nominations is undemocratic. The convention is the tribunal which all have agreed upon as the umpire between them and according to the agreement each is bound to abide by the decision. A Sad Mistake The convention at Leavenworth last week made a sad mistake when they placed W. 1). Kelley upon the State ticket.

The candidates submit their claims to this particular convention to be determined without appeal and according to the contract are bound to yield absolute acquiescence to the manner of their disposition. A candidate puts ljimtelf in a sorry plight when, after being -DEALEUS IN- been it would have been far better to have placed a man in his stead who could have polled the full party strength.
