Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1890-01-25

ticket are nominated, as it is expected they
will be tonight, q citizens ticket will be
sprung upon them next week, and two new
candidates, it is said, will rise like Banquo's
ghost, with long following.
In the Nineteenth ward the old reliable
nominations will show to the front, S. D.
Warmcastle and Robert B. Carnahan, q
team, which although not pair Of grays, is
pretty evenly matched, and will be in at
the finish, the one in Select and the other in
Common Council.
The Twentieth ward shows up J.. G. Stew
art, yardmaster at Twenty-eighth street of
the Pennsylvania Railroad, a resident of
Everson street. He has been for % years a
resident of the ward, and has never yet been
an Office holder of any kind, not even having
been delegate.
A spirited contest will be held in the
| Twenty-frst ward for Select Council between
Robert Ward, the baker, and James Fitz-
simmons. It is thought that this will be a
close fight for the nomination. For Com
mon Council the candidates are r. j. Nc
Gunnegle and Joseph L. Wright, without
opposition. There is no opposition in the
Twenty-second, and Thos. A. Gillespie and
n. P. Reed will be the candidates for Select
and Common Councils.
In the Twenty-third ward DR.. G. Evans is
the candidate for Select Council. and John
E. Williams for Common Council. The lat
ter was a well-known groceryman of the
Southside, formerly a member of Councils,
from which he resigned to attend to his pri-
vate duties.
ON THE soUTHsIDE.
In the Twenty-fourth ward, on the South
side, there is no opposition to E. 81. Mat
thews for Select Council, but for Common
Council the candidates for nomination are
about as numerous as the voters. Mark
Donley is an applicant for the sufrages of
the people to replace him in Common Coun-
Gil, where his constituents have held him
for these many years, while his antagonists
for the nomination are, so far as known,
with a citizens ticket to hear from, w, d.
Vest, grocer, William Thomas, attorney,
and Richard johnson, engineer in the
American Iron Works. The division of
opinion, making great division of votes,
makes it doubtful whether the old-time ma
jority will be increased for Mark Donley or
not
Doctor Barchfeld is now in the hottest
fight of his life for nomination in the Twen-
ty-sixth ward, and his opponents, whose
names have already been published in THE
DISPATCH, are also hustlers, so that a
lively fight is looked for tonight in the
region formerly known as East Birming-
ham.
Thomas Mullin, the present Councilman
for the Thirtieth ward, will find on election
day a toeman worthy of his steel in Martin
G. Frank, late building inspector. who is
the Republican nominee for that ward in
Common Council. There will be no contest
for nomination in this case, but very hard
one for election.
In the Twenty-ninth ward the contest is
upon the Aldermanic election, and j. Mar
tin Schaefer will have to keep his eye
peeled upon T. C, Beinhauer, who is pre-
pared to attend to the obsequies OF his ep-
ponent The primaries for this nomination
will be held on February 8.
In the Thirty-ffth ward there is no con-
test, and there will be no objections, as both
members are property owners in the ward,
and are we'll known by the citizens to have
the interests OF the ward at heart. The
Thirty-second ward is not quite so confident,
but there will be no contests In the Thirty
first there will be but few objections, ex-
cept on the score of the miserable water
supply, and this is echoed by the residents
OF all the Southside wards.
ALLEGHENY DEMOCRATS.
An enthusiastic meeting of Democrats
hdS uSAO AdSb ONSu4uS ab bAClL
No. 173 Federal street, Allegheny, last
evening. The Democratic candidate, Mr..
Stayton, was present, and addressed the
meeting. The headquarters of the Allie
gheny Democracy will be at 173 Federal
street until alter the election. Mr.. Stayton,
when asked what he thought of Mayor
PearsOn's position on the election business,
said:
81 never thought that Dick would hold
over, and believe now that he will grace
fully surrender his seat to the gentleman
who secures the most votes at the coming
election, and, of course, believe that 1 will
be the lucky man. 1t is more honor than
anything else which is connected with the
office, and cannot see why any man should
insist on holding on to such position"
At late hour last night it was announced
that ''Cramper" Mckee had withdrawn in
favor Of John Knowland for Alderman, in
the Eighth ward. This is authoritative, as
the information is derived from one of the
principals to the contest
