Yesterdays Democratic and Liberal con-
ventiOBs are the general topic of this
morning.
A call from the chairman of the Dem-
ocratic convention appears this morn

the Liberal Republican convention, in
asking the Democratic convention to
reconsider its action in nominating Mr..
Johnston for mayor, that the Liberals
have no other ground for refusing to in
dorse Mr.. Johnston than that he lacks
popularity. IT says Il may be demon

hence. that he hss more strength than

of Liberals in two weeks might be Of the
highest consequence. At any rate, Il
SAYS, the adjournment Affords good citi-
zens a chance TO get a grasp upon affair.
