POLITICIANS.
Some Of Those Who Are i'm the
Field for Nomination.
THE PROHIBITIoNISTS MOVING.
The Array of 0ffice-Seekers ON the
Republican Side-The Inter-
esting SituatiOn.

The local political situation appears t,
be considerably mixed, especially wher
viewed from Republicans standpoint
There are So many candidates in the
field and 30 many factions pulling il
opposite directions that they cannot SEE
their way clearly and are cropping around
in the search for better leaders than are
in the City Central Committee. They
seem to have lost faith in that body and
are of the opinion that it's actions have
been with view Of foisting slate upon
them which they cannot break and which
they do not desire to support. They say
that the Union League runs the City
Central Committee; that all of the de-
lberations have been held in the
rooms of the Union League, to
which only members OF that body
were admitted. The Union Leaguers
were called upon for advice, and no one
else, and they do not think that the Re-
publican party is all in the Union League
or properly represented by it. A mum.
ber of Republican candidates for nomi-
nation think that the convention has
been set for too late a date, and that
while showing sign OF weakness in the
party, it also gives them no time to work
for themselves. Others are rejoicing be-
cause If nominated they think there will
be no time in which their failings can be
found, and another class argues with
them, for the reason that there will be no
time for the reformers to endorse them.
Nearly every other Republican met on
the streets is candidate for nomination
for some Office, and it is said that only
one member of the Union League has
been found who is not in the field.
The candidates for nomination for
Mayor on the Republicon side are Judge
Fitzgerald, Hon. Henry Hazard and
General John Mansfield. The friends of
all these are working hard, and it is an
open question as to which will be the
choice. .e..

Office among the Republicans are as fol-
lows: For Auditor, W. w. Robinson,
