he will decline 70 90 before the citizens Of 81.
Paul as a candidate for city treasurer In
the first place, there Is very little IN the pre-
fermenL and in the next place. 10 man can
run successfully against both the old parties.
and no one anticipates that the Republicans
Will ever nominate Il rOck-rlDOed democrat
even for dog catcher. IL is contrary tC all
reason, Mr. Dfeis has been prominent
Democrat and an active and effective worker
for good many years ia this city, and he
has antagonized the manipulators OF ward
politics IN the opposition ranks TO such Il de-
gree that Il would be folly 70 expect thal ne
will be fOrgiN en- and given cordial support
by the rank and file Of the Republican party.
Timothy Reardon is one Of the orignators
Of the political cubal II now transpires that
he had something that resembles All Interior
motive mt least, in his little diversion. lie Is
II candidate for the city assembly. No one
charges him with entertaining ray of hope
of grazing II seat in the cOurcil because OF
his little coup: but there are men whose m
biuOu is requiIed by simple nomination.
But is this II nomination, in the common ac'
Ceptatl0n Of The termg lie is on the so-ealled
CiliZeus ticket. IL is true, but this ticket was
not named 10y The voters OF the city. There
were no primaries held. and consequently
there WIS no popular or representative voice.
1t IS barely possible that the Republican
convention will nominate Fred IngersOll for
mayor That will nccessitatate another Sc
cret conference on the part OF the political
Cabal lie is on the independent ticket az a
candidate for alderman from the seventh
ward. II goes without saying That lac VIII lose
no time in qualifying for the mayoralty con
test If called, aud then there will be mighty
little time left for the cabal 10 decide upon
second choice.
John Copeland already feels that he has
got cinch on his present seat IN the board
of aldermen for another two years. lie says
he is assured Of the regular Republican nom
ination, ana he already has the cabal at his
back This fact has so eXci.ed his imaglna-
ton that he has frequently said or late that
there is little probability OF the Democrats
making any nomination against him. He is
assured by the cabal that his administration
of the affairs of the ward in the council have
been so eminently satisfactory TO the citizens
of the First ward, irrespective of party fealty,
that there is Il general uprising Ill his behalf.
Although lie has so often and so emphat-
icnly proclaimed that he would never again
accept nomination for any Office whatever,

j. DAILY is once more in the political arena.
IL is reported, in other words, that he has
really accepted the nomination OF the polit'
zeal cabHl as n candidate for the assembly.
He lives in the district west of Wabasha
street and will probably run against Assem-.
byman McNamee.
Col. W H. Lightner, Nushka athlete and
the arch political reformer, as matter Of
course, is on the cabnlistic ticket. II would
hot be complete otherwise, and it is Il seri-
Gus matter of CONCENTRATION to the ticket.
Mr.. Lghtner is an exemplary young man,
and will no doubt make lively canvass
George Moore is announced as a candidate
for the Republican nomination for alderman
in the Third ward. and those who heard it
yesterday were wondering VINO he is and how
much of him would be left on election even
ing.
1t seems to be the general opinion that I'M
less Col Wright is Endorsed by the Repub-
Leans, he Will not consent TO the use OF his
name by the divorce crowd. Deliberate
thinkers cannot for the life of them see why
the gallant colonel should allow the use of
his name anyhow.
Henry Johns and others of the Rid leaders
are wearing out all their shoe leather IN their
mad efforts to prevent the Republican in
dorsement of Wright for mayor They are
for Kiefer first, last and all the time.
The working people of St. Paul are in
large majority, and if they want special rep
resentatiOn on political tickets it is little
singular that a meeting for that purpose
should be attended by only mere handful.
The working people want their political
rights but they do object to being led by the
nose by one or two walking delegates.
The polls Will be open tomorrow for regis
tration, and it is the duty of every good citi-
zen to see that his name is properly enrolled.
Remember that if you are not registered you
cannot vote.
