APPOINTMENTS OF CITY EXECUTIVE
CoMMITTEE-No COUNTY TICKET TO
BE PUT IN THE FIELD.
A meeting of the Republicans was held
on Saturday evening, in the third story
of Rumfords building, No. 404 Market
street. The attendance was large, and 1t
was hard to tell which of the three can
didates, that are spoken of for Mayor
had the most adherents present. On
motion Washington Hastings was called
to the chair, and before taking his seat
he made short address in which he said
that, those present were there in the in
t-rest of the Republican party, and not
to sacrifice ourselves to any one man. We
want the coming nomination to DO a fair
anu square one; we want 1t made by Re-
publicans.
the duty of appointing .jIdges to hold
the election, before they do so,
should consult with the three candidates
and allow them.to select one man each
for the different polling places, so that
after the nomination is over they will
be perfectly satisfied. Let us go TO work
and go fairly, and not have any hard feel
ings, after the nomination Is over. There
Is not man named who would not be
superior any man named by the Demo-
cratic party.

The first named gentleman on the COM

Mr. B. T. Bye, offered resolution that
each of the candidates be allowed to
name one man in each ward who after
being approved by the executive of the
ward, shall be the judges to hold the cleo
uon, and who shall decide all questions
of challenges.
Mr. p. B. Ayers, thought that the COM
mittee should select man TO receive the
ballots, who should have no say in chal-
lenges, but who should just receive the
ballots, and hold 1t until the three Judges
should decide whether to receive il or
not. He therefore offered an amendment
to the original resolution, that the exc
cutlve committee select fourth man to
receive the ballots.
Mr.. HeSey, wished to know what more
was wanted than the three Judges, il
looked as though they they were present
to watch one another. Why you keep
| on this way, we will soon have to ap-
point three others TO watch the three
judges. We are honest Republicans
James l.. Hawkins, there is where II
comes In perhaps the candidate, might
think he had not fair show ON the Exc.
cutiye Committee | - Mr.. Hawkins
was endeavoring to proceed but was in
terrupted by Mr.. Hersey who was speak
ing against the Amendments but was per
emptorily called to order by the chair
with "order Mr.. Hersey"D
The resolution and amendment were
then adopted.
Mr.. Bye introduced another resolution
calling upon the county executive com
mittee to call a meeting, for the purpose
ofpreparing for the coming campaign.
MIR. Hastings was opposed to the reso
luton. He was in favor of not put
ting any candidates for the State officer
in the field, as the party had no show.
After few further remarks, the call.
ing of the meeting was left entirely witt
the committee.
