SOUR WOOD SAPLIN. Letter From Jno. Y. Phillips. Dulton, May 1. Editors Dan bury Reporter: In your account of the Democrat ic convention, at Danbnry, I notice nn error as to the votes cast for l ilenn and for Steadman for Gov ernor. You say that the delegates from Pinnacle and Boyles precincts took a vote, and that Pinnacle uave 2' votes for Glenn and f, for Steadmah, and that Boyles gave for Glenn, and If, for Steadman ; and that those votes in the county convention would give Steadman only three-tiftlis of one vote in the State convention. Now. the delegates from Pinna cle. Boyles and Wilsou's Store precincts cast votes for Glenu and for Steadman for Governor, as follows: Pinnacle precinct 3j| votes for Glenn and !| for Stead man. Boyles 2!, for (ilenn ami 1!| for Steadman. Wilson's Store precinct was en titled to 7 votes in the convention and was represented by 10 votes of whom voted for Glenn and 7 for Steadman which would tfive 2 1-10 votes for Glenn and I 9-10 for Steadman, at that pre cinct. So the precincts that voted gave eight and one-tenth votes for Glenn, and six and nine tenths for Steadman. Now, as the county in the coun ty convention has 52 votes, and is entitled to 10 votes in the State convention, the six and nine-tenths votes received by Steadman in the county convention would givehim one and one tenth votes in the State convention. Hope you will make the correc tion. / Very respectfully, JOHN Y. PHILLIPS. [After the election of delegates, the convention passed a resolution to instruct for Glenn. The fact Phillips protested that the vote of his township lie coutited and that no one protested for Wilson's Store precinct, accounts for the report which the Reporter gave of the matter, and which was correct. —Editor].
