THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
Cities Which Are ANXIOUS to Have Il MAX
ing Great EfYorts.


ing Great Enorts.
There is promise of very active contest be-
fore the republican national committee, which
meets in Washington on the 23d, between the
rival cities seeking the honor Of being the
meeting place Of the republican national con-
vention next year. While Chicago has an
nounced that no fight will be made
by representatives of that city for the conven-
tion, as they already have the worlds fair, but
that they will take care of the convention if il
comes to them unsought, there is understood to
be strong sentiment in the committee in favor
Of meeting where they met in 1888. II is urged
that Chicago 10 most central and best able TO
take care of a convention.
A great deal Of work is being done for San
Francisco, Omaha, Minneapolis and Cincinnati,
and IL is expected that New York viii come in
with q strong bid The great disadvantage Of
San Francisco Is the great distance from most
Of the balance Of the United States and
the consequent cost OF transportation
The Californians propose to overcome this OBJ
lection in part by paying the transportation Of
all the delegates and all the expenses Of the
convention. Another consideration, however,
would be the enormous telegraph tolls that
would be involved sending the news Of the
convention from San Francisco
Omaha and Minneapolis viii probably make
the greatest effort to secure the convention,
and the friends of both cities are very hopeful
Very little has been heard from New York, bat
. great many outsiders think tklt either New
York or Minneapolis viii bs chosen IL Chicago

A Change I'm Political Sentiment Elects tn
Conservative Candidates.

LISBON, Nov. l6.-The elections for officers
OF the city government were held yesterday
At the last elections the republican party was
very active and 80 industriously did they work
in spreading their doctrines that the party
scored a great victory. They were aided in
their success by the fact that the voting popu-
lation felt very bitter toward the government
In consequence Of it's attitude toward Great
Britain in connection with the African dispute.

and the republicans were correspondingly
elated.
The results Of yesterdays election, however,
show that there has been complete change in

worked hard to bring about the success Of their
candidates, but the returns show that they we're
defeated by enormous majorities by the CON-
servative ticket
