Gossip.

Yesterday the result of the action O
the Democratic county convention in
selecting county ticket was subject
of general discussion on the street. The
concensus of public opinion seems to be
that the ticket nominated is a strong
one, and that it will be elected.
COUNTY COMMITTEE OFFICERS.
Tomorrow at 1Oo'clock the Democratic
county central committee will convene
at headquarters, 1l51s, South Spring
street, for the purpose of perfecting a
permanent organization. G. f. A. Last
will probably be chosen to act as chair
man of the committee. slr. Last has
about him all OF the qualifications that
go to make up an excellent chair
man, and his election to that
position will be received by the Demo-
cratic masses of this county with satis-
faction.
1t is impossible to state at this time
who will be chosen to act as secretary of
the committee. The names of several
well-known young Democrats have been
presented and mentioned in this connec-
tion, but the choice of the committee
cannot at this time be foreshadowed
with any reasonable certainty.
Mr.. ROBERTS ACTION.
George d. Roberts was Yesterday re-
ceiving the congratulations of his friends
on the manly way in which he acted in
the fight for the assembly nomination
In the Seventy-third district. 1t was
solely owing to the fact that he did not
consider himself physically able TO cope
with the labor the position called for
that Mr.. Roberts did not accept the
Democratic nomination. II he had ac-
cepted he would certainly have been
elected. As it is, Mr.. Roberts is for
Frank q. Finlayson. A vote for Mr..
Finlayson is a vote for Stephen M.
White for United States senator.
