A HERALD reporter vent mp 10 tho real

THE CAUCUS.
Our reporter was forced out OF the cat
Gus Of the "outs" IA the regulars" call
them, but he managed to catch on" 20
some things thst took place.
There was much discussion
on various question o, but the
most important was as t.
how 10 conduct the convention which
meets tonight. The programme agreed mp |
on was that Mr.. Sheffield, chairman OF the |
city executive committee, was 10 call the |
meeting 20 order. II was conceded that |
there would be two seis OF delegates from |
each ward present. but tenn |
porsry chairman and temporary secrs-
tary was to be elected from |
ne mas OF delegates pralcat. Then 2 !
COMMITTEES on credentials and committee
Oh permanent officers IL TO be appointed,
the committee on credentials, of course, to
report first. Here is where the sickness Of
the caucus work comes in. The call for the
city convention says Zach ward il entitled
to tive delegates, that 10 five
votes. The regulars, or ''ins," as
they call themselves, only elected five |
delegates from each war6, while the |
"outs, i" AZ they are called, elected ten dele
gates from each ward. On general aye |
and nay vote OF both delegations for iom-
porary officers, the ''outs" having two TO |
ono delegates. will beat the "ins," rs they |
have two 10 one delegates. Getting ten.
pornry Craftsmanship, "out" committees on
and permanent officers will he
appointed. This would leave the ''ins" Ia
the shade decidedly. The prospects are
that there will be two conventions.
