The Democratic State Convention held in Madison last week nominated a ticket led by Jas Be Cross for governor and J J Campbell lieutenant governor with D W Jones secretary of state and Gabriel Bouck attorney general among others. Balloting produced Cross in front on multiple ballots while critics accuse the machine of steering toward familiar figures.
