date who has yet bobbed up I'm the Sec
ond ward for alderman. Coleman Flah-
erty is out of the race. R0bb has the
stuff in him for good alderman, and il
the race lies between him and Matt
LeithauSer, who is sure of the RepuG.
lican nomination, Robb will beat him,
as the ward is Democratic.
Chris Donniden, IL is said, will not
run for alderman on the Dem cratic
ticket i'll the Fifth ward, and Billy Ban
holZer declares he will not run for al
derman at large. Aid. Book and Fred
Richter have formed deal to pull to-
gether, but it is likely both will be
slipped up on by their opponents. Nor
itz Helm is a Republican candidate who
does not propose to be frozen out by
any such combination, and he is pretty
solid with the Bohemian voters in the
Fifth. The Democratic committeeman
from the Fifth, p. Egan, is urging Bar
ney Ryan for ward alderman, with Nj.
j. DAILY second, in the event OF a Slip-up
on Ryan. DAILY doesn't care about it

has changed John considerably. His
Observation-Disclosures business does not
receive the attention it erstWhile did

council, but does not stand quite ace high
since his position on certain questions
that have come up from time to time.
Comical as it may be. Aid. Fisher hugs
the deluSion to his manly bosom that he
would make good mayor for the great
municipality of st. Paul. He wants to
secure the labor Endorsement, and with
that will endeayor to force the Repub-
licans to nominate him. He would even
take a Democratic nomination. 1t is
quite likely that the alderman will fall
far short of his plans, and will retire to
private life for good shortly after the
ides of March. Aid. John will endeavor
to secure trades assembly indorse-
ment on Friday next, but won't get it.
Aid. Sullivan used to be a Democrat
at one time. That was when he was
looking for Democratic favors. Since
which is strongly Republican, Aid. Sui
livan has swung round and is now a
Republican. professedly. He wants to
be returned to the council. and, to
strengthen himself with his constitu-
ents, is claiming the credit of securing
the sewer system in the Eleventh. Mr..
Sullivan is arrOgating too much to HIM
self in the claim. John Hinkel had
as much to do as any one man
with securing the sewerage system out
that way. Those who are next to
Aid. Sullivan are after his scalp. His
most formidable opponent is William
H. De Savigny, who is popular man
in the district, and gr0ceryman at
Union Park. w. G. Severns, Repub-
lican, is also anxious to succeed Sulli-
van.
William Brink. the contractor, is GO
lag to give Matt Leithauser tussie for
the Republican nomination for repre-
sentative from the Second ward. 1t
will be a lively little scrimmage between
the two.
Frank Kelly, native Of St. Paul and
a wheelhOrse IN ward politics some
years ago, is seeking the Democratic
nomination in the Eighth ward.
Johnnie Mccarthy, son of Jerry
Mccarthy, who was a power in the
Sixth ward for years, Is spoken of as al
