The Republican Canvass.

There is less noise and buster in the candi
dacy of the Republican aspirants for the nomi-
nation for mayor than characterized the fight
between the Democrats, and while much active
work is being done, there is no bitter feeling.
Whoever is nominated will certainly receive the
united support of the party, and there will be no
discord in the convention. The drift of the talk
on the streets is that City Attorney Denny is
about the most formidable candidate in the field,
but the friends of Mayor McMaster and General
McGinns claim that they have not yet encoun-
tered any opposition that is at all discouraging.
1t is quite evident that there will be
no nomination on the first or second
ballot, and the division of support between the
three leading candidates gives CLEAN of hope to
the aspirants who are in the shade. AS dark
horse, it is believed that General Carnahan has
very favorable chances of being nominated, al
though there are no very pronounced indications
that the fight will be of character to make the
selection of dark horse necessary. 1t is under
stood that McMaster and Stout have agreed to an
equal division of the vote of the Second-ward
delegates on the first ballot, upon the condition
that afterwards the entire delegation shall cast
its solid vote for the candidate who gives evil
dence Of having the strongest vote. Whether or
not this agreement between the candidates can
be carried out is regarded as somewhat doubtful,
and there is some disposition to object to the
arrangement by the other candidates. who think
that the delegates should be left to vote as they
please
