Walnut lumber is very scarce and

sold it for ii han isome sum to an
Eastern man who bought it on the

the walnut log was taken away he
cut down a big black oak Of the

JUDGES OF ELECTION.
Aldermen Decide to Make Theil
Own Selections.

Aldermen Decide to Make Their
Own Selections.
There was little said respecting the
appointment of judges of election. Aid.
Copeland said he had received letters
from the Democratic and Republican
committees recommending judges. He
was willing to accept those names if
the rest of the aldermen were. Aid.
Bott took the position that the al
dermen should select their own judges,
irrespective of any outside political Or
ganizatlon. In this view he was sup
ported by the rest of the Democratic
aldermen. Aid. Dobner said it should
be understood that the Democratic
county committee had not recommended
any judges. Aid. Copeland replied he
had received a letter from the COM
mittee. 1t, however, TRANSFERRED that
the letter was not signed; that it bore
the letter head of the department of
chief of police. Aid. Gehan denied that
the Democratic committee knew any
thing about it. Some one had sent the
letter to Mr.. Copeland to "fool'' him.
1t was decided aldermen select the
Judges, and their selections are as fol-
