planned to go to the Pacific coast this
fall, and he does not want to forego that
pleasure tor the sake of dabbling in
politics. His successor on the ticket
will probably be 2. Demueles.
There is some ill-feeling in the Six
teenth precinct of the Fourth ward, the
residents of which voted at the engine
house on Third street. near First ave-
nue. south. The delegates elected were
X. j. Mcintyre, a. q. Plummer and Z.
A. Bartlett-Potter men. 1t is claimed
that the other ticket, which was against
Potter, and upon which there was
Catholic, was counted out by Mcintyre
and his friends.
From surface indications itseems prob
able the Anti-Catholic movement will
crop out i'll the city convention even
more noticeably than it did in the Re-
publican county convention. Some
thing of a fight will be made upon
Potter because of his Anti-Catholic
affiliations, and there are several alder
manic candidates who are noted for
being prime movers in the society of
the narrow-minded.

There may be neat little set-to in
the convention over the election of
chairman. Up to yesterday John Good
now was about the only man mentioned
for chairman, but Harry Truesdell, r.
B. Langdon's son-in-law, is now look
ing for it. He is making hard hustle
for it. too. and will crowd GOodnow
closely.
According to S. NJ. Owen, the ALI
ance party intends making a general
war upon the old parties this fall. He
announces that Il candidate for congress
will be nominated in every district in
the state, and that full legislative tick
cts will be placed before the people. In
the county of Hennepin and the city of
Minneapolis he says that full tickets
will be nominated.
Following is the committee On judicial
nominations appointed Saturday by c.
NJ. Foote:
At large, Hon. A. A. Ames, Titus
Mareck, r. P. Russell; First ward Jo-
seph lngenhutt; Second ward, Isaac
McNeir; Third ward, William Mascot;
Fourth ward. j. G. Oswald; Fifth ward.
James w. Tom; Sixth ward, George G.
Jacoby; Seventh ward, Edward l.. Lar
son; Eighth ward, J. E. Woodford;
Ninth ward, Robert Erwin; Tenth
ward, Marcus Miller: Eleventh ward,
Tingler; Thirteenth ward. A. III.
Mitchell; country, l.. A. Austin, John
Moler.
This committee is nearly as non-par-
tisan as could he selected, and who is
the favorite of the committee for places
OH the judicial ticket is mystery.

James Edwin, the we'll known cigar
manufacturer. is candidate for the Re-
publican nomination for mayor. If
nominated he thinks he could poll the
labor vote with him. His cigar factory
is the only large union shop in the city,
and he stands exceptionally well among
labOriDg classes.
Although Mr.. Foote gives the as
Surance that this is entirely, SO far as
he knows, an unpledged and unpTeju-
diced delegation, the opinion is general
that the majority of the delegation are
strongly in favor of Thomas Canty for
the judgeship in dispute.
So far as could be learned yesterday.
the Republican mayoralty situation re-
mains practically unchanged. Al. day
yesterday and last night there was no
end of comforting and discussing and
wire pulling in order to secure a nOmI-
nee for mayor. Potter is still the lead
er among the active candidates. But
he will need three-ply fur overcoat
and an infaut furnace to keep himself
warm should either Fletcher or
Clough consent to allow his chapeau
to be landed in the center of
the arena. AS the converting and nom
mating hour draws near, the feeling
that Potter has not the staying qualities
necessary for a hard finish seems to
grow. There is still much canvassing
in the dark corners of Republican re-
sorts of ali names which might prove
available midnight-hued trotters. Nearly
every Republican who possesses even
the suspicion of strength has, at some
time or other, within the past month or
so, been spoken of as candidate
for mayor, even to William Henry Eus-
tbs. All theSe-and mOre-are under
consideration as possible candidates.
Hence the question becomes narrowed
down to the iginal proposition-POtte
wants the nomination. but the nOmina-
alton doesn't want him, and will not
have him if it can help it.

AS has been said above concerning
| tn e mayoralty situation, so may it be
stated of the aldermanic questions
they are practically in statu quo. In
sided; in the others the various candi-
dates have been working so Justify and
cleaving the air so rapidly in their
ruShes from one delegate to another
that even the slumbers of the policeman
have been disturbed. This campaign,
SO far as Republican would-be alder
| men are concerned, should go on record
as one whose work has all been done
under the light of the pale, cold moon
and the roguishly twinkling stars.
When the tired householder is aroused
from his slumbers by the resounding
clatter of horses hoOfS, he knows, if he
knows anything of politics, that it is
not the bold highwayInan, but the coy,
clinging, even cringing, aldermanic
candidate who is outWitting, under
cover of darkness, his willy opponent,
while said willy opponent is on the same
"lay'' within couple of blocks.

A Beautiful Lesson APPLY Drawn

Rev. W. II. Lhamop, in his sermon at
the Church of Christ yesterday, said:

preceding Sundays have called your
