WILL NAME GOURLEY.
He Is the Chosen Candidate of the
Industrial Alliance
FOR CONTROLLER MORROW'S JOB.
How Eepublicans Intend to Settle the
MayOralty Question.
A TICKET OF GOOD MEN TO BE SELECTED

Mayor Gourley will be a candidate for
Controller if Controller Morrow is not
renominated. That is now assured. The
Mayor himself is not authority for the
statement 1t comes from Secretary
Burrows, of the Industrial Alliance central
organization. He says there is no doubt
but the Mayor will consent to run on the
reform platform of the Alliance, and his
past utterances have made him the logical
candidate of the new and growing party.
Several of the Alliance lodges have already
indorsed him and he is the unanimous
favorite of the Alliance leaders. They ex-
pect the Democrats to indorse Gourley for
Controller also, and are sanguine of his
election.
Mr.. Burrows says the Alliance is not
making any move in the matter as yet, but
as soon as it is settled beyond question that
Controller Morrow will not be nominated
then the Alliance will become aggressive.
Easy Task to Get Signatures.
Sufficient signatures for . place on the
ticket by nomination papers can be secured
on few hours notice
Regarding the other regular candidates
Major Denniston, for Treasurer, is the only
one yet named whom they will support.
They have no candidate for Mayor, but as
between McKenna and McCandless will
throw their strength to Beinhauer. If
either of the regular parties nominate an
acceptable man the Alliance will support
him. Mr.. Burrows had received no official
notification of the proposed independent
r. Oh
but said its objects as outlined in yester-
days DISPATCH were in harmony with
Alliance views, and there should be no
difficulty in getting the two movements
combined. The Alliance would, he said,
give Its support to the candidates ready to
stand on its platform.
Giving the Convention a Chance.
The plan of the Republican leaders in this
city is now openly declared to be on the
line laid down in these columns few days
ago The declaration comes from an official
source. None OF the party leaders will sug-
gest any name for the Mayoralty nomina-
tion between now and the day of the pri-
mary elections. Delegates will be elected
that day with the understanding that they
are to select the candidates for the party
ticket. Many of DR.. McCandless' delegates
will be elected. but it is expected the ma
jority will be opposed to his nomination.
The covention will be left to select its
candidates, and the party leaders have, it
is claimed, agreed to stand by the nomi-
nees.
The same official who impaired the above
information says there will be no necessity
for citizens ticket. The Republican con-
vention will nominate candidates who will
be acceptable to taxpayers. 1t would be
folly to do otherwise. A clean man who
can secure the party's vote will be elected
easily and the politicians see the necessity
of the hour. There are plenty of good
men in the party, it is asserted, who would
make ideal officials and carry the strength
of their party into an election.

TO KEEP OUT CHOLERA.
The Health Convention Asked Congress for
Competent Commission.

The Health Convention Asked Congress for
a Competent Commission.
Chief Clerk Crosby Gray, of the Depart
ment of Public Safety, who on Monday re-
turned from the health conference, says the
meeting was an important one and that
much good will likely result from it. One
of the subjects discussed was the possibility
of cholera coming into America next year.
All the delegates agreed that great danger
existed and memorial was prepared and
forwarded to Congress asking for the ap-
pointment of a commission to guard against
cholera coming into this country and to
prevent if possible its leaving any of the
foreign countries.
The memorial asks that the commission
be made up of competent and expert health
men, who will have their headquarters at
Washington, and who will be empowered to
act promptly should the cholera or any
other disease threaten the country.
Mr.. Gray is confident that Congress will
act in the matter, which, he says, is the
only feasible way of keeping out the
scourge.

AT the inquest it was established that

George Speirs, living at No. 217 Carson
street, was placed in the Twenty-eighth
ward police station by Officer Mccormick
last night. charged by his wife with assault
and battery.
The trouble between Speirs and his wife
arose over a sum of S235 which the husband
yesterday drew out of the bank. 1t in
cluded their savings for about year, and
the wife was very much concerned lest he
should squsnder it foolishly. She feared
this, and when he attempted to leave the
house last night with the amount she
stopped him at the door. He insisted on
going and trouble followed. Speirs struck
his wife several times and finally got away
from the house with the money. She made
an information against him, but on his
agreement to pay her all but $50 of the
amount she withdrew the suit and peace
now reigns in the family.

Fl Word TO
fhe Men.

We are always glad when the holiday
season comes for one reason, because at this
time of year we have the pleasure of meet
ing in the store many of our masculine
friends who for the other II months of the
year are too busy or perhaps too bashful to
come to this store, where SO out of every
100 are supposed to be of the opposite sex.
To these gentlemen we now say that,
while you are heartily welcome to the store
any day and all days during this Christmas
buying season, for your benefit more
than any other reason we will keep the
store open every SATURDAY. night from now
till Christmas, and if we find that so many
come that 1t is necessary, we will keep open
every night for whole week before Christ
mas to give our gentlemen friends chance.
Remember this applies to the whole store,
so that you can buy Christmas gifts for all
your family and all your friends, big and
little and young and old.
You can buy them with satisfaction and
comfort and confidence, and that's the only
kind of buying we want in this house, and
if you don't know what you want to buy
when you come in, Just let us know OF
your perple1ity on the subject and you will
find plenty of bright, active, wideswake
salespeople, who car fill up your list salts
factorily and in short order. We nope
every man in PIttsburg who is interested IN
Christmas will read what we have said and
act upon the suggestion next Saturday
night.
One man we know of came into the store
with the Christmas idea in his mind and
bought four black silk dress patterns at IS
q yard. And to you who have not done SO
well we would recommend this as an exam
pie worthy of imitation. His Christmas
worry is over. and he has the satisfaction
of knowing that four friends OF his VIII
gratefully agree that Christmas can I come
too often as long as he remembers them IN E
this handsome manner.
