There were several candidates mentioned for
the aldermanship at the caucuses in the
Ninth. Among them were favorably NEIL
Irving and Joseph Rephotz. The last named
is member of the Typographical union, and
is said to have strong support in event OF

Eleventh Ward.
The caucuses in this ward were of the list
less order. without excitement in any quar-
ter The largest crowd was found at the
Eighth precinct, and here was also the most
decided Ames sentiment. but az he was not not
regarded as i'll the race, the talk was nearly
all for Winston for mayor, with little said
about other candidates.
Among the names mentioned for aldermen
were William Lackey, II. M. Helgerson, E.
Dean and Mr. Jones, who was a candidate
two years ago, but the majority favored the
nomination of man residing west OF Cedar

understood that he prefers seat on the
school board.

which are on the outskirts of the city. They
have but five or six delegates each, and are
believed to be pretty nearly solid for VIM

however, wholly without authority. Mr..
Penny is candidate IN the sense that he
will make the fight if asked to, depending
for the nomination upon the party's sense OF
the fitness of things L. r. THAN is certainly
making hard fight for the place. He is a
hustler, and will never give up the fight until
after the convention.
