been pretty freely discussed One stem
was taken by the caucus which has oc-
casloned considerable talk among the
people. That was the nomination of f
>; RaWson to be night Waterman in the
place OF j. L. Hayes, who now holds
mat position; Mr.. Rawson has in the
past afnliated with the populist party
has been one of their workers at the
polls, and has voted that ticket against
the democratic nominees. Mr. Hayes has
peen democrat and has always voted
the democratic ticket in all of our CON
tests. The views of large numbers of

summarized as follows: That without any
encouragement of Mr.. Rawson they be
neved that a man in a democratic city
mat usually gave 400 democratic major
lty and one who stands by the democratic
party should not be turned down in or
der to put in office one who worked and
voted for popuhsm. 1t is said that the
merchants who pay part of Mr. Hayes
spite the action of council.

OF bonds that ii is desired that the Cen
