FOR CITY DADS.
Patriots Who Would Willing to
Serve in the Council

Serve in the Council.
'It's too early" was the answer to
the GLOBES inquiry as to who are the
aldermanic candidates. The city COLI
ventiOn comes after the county and leg
islative conventions, and naturally no
politician who considers that he stands
show for a nomination in either of the
former is willing to put himself on rec
rd as an avowed candidate for an Of
flee within the gift of the latter. In
addition to this there is that feeling of
insecurity as to what may happen or as
to what combinations may be formed
because of the influences that may be
brought about by trading. With but
few exceptions, it can be said that most
of the present aldermen will seek re-
elections, although they generally pro-
feSS an intention of making no fight for
the honor.
In the First ward there is a plethora
of Democratic candidates, with the US
ual nationality contest on hand. Joe
Ingenhutt, thinks his services as park
commissioner entitle his claims to con-
sideration. Aids. L'Herault and Hans
com will both seek denominations, but
Aid. Titus Mareck has intimated his in
tention to retire. Fred Bushaber is
mentioned as are John Norton, the fuel
dealer, James E. Kertson, of the water
works department, Hugh Butler, Con.
Linnehan, GOttlieb Schober and Ed
Davenport. John MCGOWAN also an
nounceS his intention of running as the
young mans candidate. The Republi-
cans do not seem to be especially anx-
ious to make the fight, and eX-Ald
Fleetham, I'll. E .BlaiSdell, who last year
fn,. ,cfi
have announced themselves.
In the Second ward there is little
stir. 1t is understood that Prof. John
G. Moore, before going to Europe, an
nounced his willingness to accept the
Democratic nomination. Then there
are Ed Conway, a young and energetic
Democrat; Erwin Spencer, the real es-
state dealer, and Burke O'Brien. For
the Republicans, both Aid. BarrowS and
Aid. Johnson can be counted upon as
candidates, but Aid. ClOugh looks
higher, and has entered the congress
sional race. If he fails to catch on he
undoubtedly means to make a trial for
the mayoralty. Attorney WI. Marson
mentioned, and Philip Herzog may take
1t into his head to again contest honors
with Aid. BarrOws, l.. S. Gillette prob
ably thinks as Clough is out of the race,
he is entitled to the nomination he con-
siders he fairly won two years ago.
The Third ward is going to see some
fun before harvest time. Aid. Near 4
die, Mills and Gilman will be in the
field again, and will stand on their rec
ordS, to face the rumpuS that has been
kicked up by the Eighteenth Avenue
North improvement association. S. II.
March, park commissioner and presi-
dent of the Globe Light company, has
entered the lists, and S. U. Beadman is
spoken of among tine Democrats. Rob
ert Pratt, the eX-alderman, wants to
get back again from the Republicans,
and E. U. Geesaman is, of course, in
the field, as is Henry G. Hanke, who
represents the Pillsbury contingent.
and liver Hanson. Peter johnson, con-
tracing plaSterer, is also on deck.
In the Fourth ward Aid. Cloutier will
be candidate if he is not returned to
the legislature, and Aid. Morse is will
ing to accept denomination, but will
not ask it. Girls Baehr, of Hamburger
hall, seems to be thought of consider
ably. Freeman P. Lane is said to be
quietly working for the Republican
nomination. Emerson Cole is undoubt-
eddy candidate for reelection, and w.
w. Woodward, a former alderman.
wouldn't mind getting there. Maj. W.
E. Hale, of the board of education, has
been suggested, and it is whispered that
E. j. Davenport thinks he could find
time to attend to aldermanic duties
when he retireS from the clerkship of
the district court. o. NJ. LaraWav. the
eX-pOStmaSter, also has the aldermanic
bee in his bonnet.
The Fifth ward has been so strongly
Republican that the Democrats are not
nibbling very lively at the aldermanic
bait. James Tamm, head miller of the
rrotll
the Humboldt, and W. 81. Helfrich, head
miller of the Anchor, are in the field.
d. ID. Smith, the contractor, has been
suggested. and Lawrence Clarity has
announced himself. AS to the Republic
canS-Ald. Downs. Phillips and Clark
all want to be returned. S. c. Cutter
bankers to get back in the city hall
shadow and John Carlson says he is
entitled to nomination, while Mike
Nash, Nelson Williams or William
Buffers might be prevailed upon to ac-
cept.
Sixth ward city politics have not taken
any shape. 1t can be depended upon
that Claus johnson and j. NJ Gleason.
Democrats, want another term. James
Sweeney, the grocer, would like to try
again. GuStave Heinrich, the brewer.
DR.. Hanson and Tim Corbet may be
counted upon, while Judge Lars NJ.
Rand is only waiting to be urged.
The Republicans have not done much
| talking as yet. DIR. H E. Late, Samuel
Hunter, the plumber, and William Gun
derson, the deputy register of deeds,
| seem to be the only ones thus far con-
| sidered.
Of the Seventh ward, Aldermen
| Dwyer and Gibson want to be returned.
while No erenberg is said to be indiffer-
| ent. Thomas Ryan, foreman of the
ward crew, is to be pushed forward. j.
J. Evans is mentioned as well as VILE
lam Lee, who was a candidate two
| years ago, and last, but not least. Col
| Nj. w. Glenn, who has lately moved
into the ward. The Republicans talked
of so far as can be learned are C. NJ.
