a ring to rule not only the city and
all who dwell therein, but the county
and all who there abide. The shibbo-
leth they have selected has been one
for years, which has been q synonym
of defeat and it is especially signifi-
can't as q precursor now of defeat be-
cause 1t is calling down on it's own
head it's own abuse. 1t attacks itself
aud fights itself right in its own most
vital and vulnerable parts.
Knowing that the people are op.
posed-and bitterly opposed, to the
city administration, and more espe-
cially when it was thus attempted to
unite the city and county administra-
tions, these administration chose this
shibboleth, but while they had the
opportunity to do so did not have the
hardihood to declare who com-
prised the committee" that had
put forward this ticket. 1t has been
an open secret that the admins ira

days ago with the exception of al

in regard to who should be retained
and who should be thrown over board
of the old gang who had served the
administration throughOutevilr report.
1t was finally concluded by the adj

who were slow and 10th to accept
their nominations, and two of them,
George Dullnig and Ed. Kotula, are
accredited with saying that they only
consented to have their names placed
on the ticket to get rid of the impor-

neither would take any active part in

James Steven Hogg is seen
in this campaign" said a
well known political leader this
morning. "In fact,n said he, "the

becomes necessary and you can call
