Mayor MCGOWAN will be renominated by
reclamation at the Republican city conven-
ton. The friends of Squire Frank Mason
claim that this will not occur; that nine,
probably ten, of the twenty delegates
elected favor the nomination Of Mason, not
counting any of the Fifth ward delegates,
some of whom may give their support to
the Squire. The delegates were selected
on the Marshalship contest, and it is diff
cult to tell Just how they may be persuaded
to vote for a candidate for Mayor; but the
indications do not point to McGowan's
denomination by reclamation.

Sentiment Of our people on the question
OF building a bridge connecting Wheeling
and this city is divided. Many persons are
of the opinion that such highway will be
of positive injury TO the city, making Bell
aire now and always suburb OF her larger
neigh Dor; that the disposition OF people TO
do their buying in larger city than that IN
which they reside would be encouraged,
and Bellaire would eventually become but
a residence town. Probable one-half OF
our citizens firmly believe that Bellaire,
however hard her msfortunes have been
late, is destined TO be one Of the leading
manufacturing towns of Eastern Ohio, and
they are naturally irritable on any subject
which they think will build up rival city
at Bellaire's expense. Others hold the
opinion that bridge connecting the two
cities will not induce any more Of our peo-
pie to buy goods in Wheeling than buy
there now: that it Will induce Wheeling
people TO buy residence property here, and
will eventually induce Wheeling capital to
invest in manufactures to DC located here.
The general trend of sentiment is that the
bridge will be built ere long, whether 1t be
Of advantage or injury TO Bellaire.
