This belief 18 natural on his part for the reason that if the districts were to be formed as now seems probable, there would be very little chance for him to secure & nomination. The governor, however, does not seem to take into consideration the fact that tho anti- monopolists might happen to control the next republican state conventidn, and in that case diminish his chances to zero, If political aspirations still perplex him, he had better gratify the wishes of the people by convening the legislature and taking his chances on this action The movement in favor of an extra session is very strong in the western portion of the state, where the people seem to feel that they are in danger of being left out in the cold if candidates are nominated at large. inhabitants of the Republican Valley seem to expect that a district contain- ing about ten counties and fifty thou. sand people is to be carved out for their special benefit. The prospects are that there will be a multitude of apportionment bills introduced, 1f the legislature meets.
