Max Pepper would win without any great
difficulty. but he has two very alert and in
dustriouS rivals in the persons of j. Z. Sui
Ivan and John II. Wise. The latter
held the position some years ago, and
because of that fact he Is now
in the fight. 1t was rumored a day
or two ago that he had retired IN favor OF
Sullivan, but this is denied by the friends
of Wise, who say their prospects OF sue
cess are so bright that they intend to fight
it ouF. They also exhibit letters from Mr..
Wise in which. no later than Saturday, he
referred TO his candidacy and expressed
determination TO hold out TO the last The
maintains discreet silence and merely
refers to the fact that he has never an
nounced his withdrawal.
One enthusiastic friend of Pepper said
yesterday: Max is a sure winner, and
without vote from San Francisco lie will
secure the place. Two-thirds at least Of
the country members are for him. and his
strength comes from the most unexpected
directions. The truth is that the only al
gumeBt which has been urged against him
is that he was too close 10 Buck and that
is no longer a cry of alarm among the
Democrats of the State who recognize Pom

Sullivan of course is backed TO a large
extent by the members of the reOrganiZa-
ton committee who were with him in his
recent fight 10 break down the old Buckley
machine. and who naturally feel from their
standpoint that his services should be re-
warded with the best at the disposal Of the
party.
In spite Of all this, however, there is no
denying the fact that Pepper has all the
best Of it and will probably win.
