HIS NAME IS DENNIS.
Orville Dennis of Lake City N6hi«
inated Representative from
the Wexford District.,".•;'■•"
The republicans of the Wexford sils-j
trlct, comprising Clare, Wexford jind
Missaukee counties, held a convention
at Cadillac Wednesday which resulted
in the nomination of Oville Dennis,
editor of the Missaukee Republican at
Lake City. There were three caridi-;
dates in the field, Clare county seek-,
ing the nomination of Dr. L. L. Kei»
ley of Farwell, Wexford, E. B. Averill;
and as aforesaid, Mr, Dennis was the
choice of the Missaukee delegation.
It took twenty-two ballots to nominate, and on this ballot Mr. Dennis
received the necessary sixteen votes.
The Olare delegation were loyal to
Dr. Kelley, who most ofthe^itae bad
eleven votes,—three from Wexford,—
but failed to get the necessary eight-
votes, besides Clare county's eight.
It was generally conceded that It was
Clare county's turn to have representative, and this, too, by members of
both the Missaukee and Wexford delegations, but for various reasons they
did hot vote their convictions, hence
the defeat of our candidate.
• Mr. Dennis is a bright, Industrious,
upright young man, and we feel confident that he will have the interests
of his district at heart and will well
serve the people as a member of Mich'
lgan's law making body. We Congratulate him on his success and when
the votes are counted November 6th,
we feel assujed Clare county will roll
up a handsome majority for him, as
will the other counties in the district.
. Clare county's delegates were:   D.
E. Alward, S. C Kirkbride of Clare;
Judge Canfleld, J. E. Dudley, F. L.
Morrissey of Harrison; D. R. Wait of
Farwell; Thos. Moltby of Crooked,
Lake;>W. M.. Temple of Redding; abf£
besides the delegates were in attendance from Clare county: George. J.
Cummins of Harrison, Chan. Breed
of Farwell and E-G- Welch of Clare.
The representative committee aB
elected is composed of three men:
George J. Cummins  of Harrison;  J.
F. Rathsun of Lake City; and E, E.
Hasklns of Cadillac.
