Well Attended Gatherings in All the Wards But

Geo. B. Boyd For Mayor

Democratic suggestion meetings for
Councflmen were held in all the wards
of the city, except the Eighth, COM
mencing at eight O'Clock last evening.
In the Eighth ward, through some mis-
understanding, the meeting did not
take place, being postponed until next
Wednesday evening.
As rule the meetings were largely
attended, and the names suggested
were excellent throughout, making
good Council tickets in every ward
foregone conclusion. The interest
taken was remarkable, considering it
was the Saturday night before Christ
mas. when shopping and kindred attrac-
tions were calculated to drive every
| thought OF politics out of the av-
erage mind, and it seemed to be the
purpose Of everyone to see that the list
Of names for Councilmen should be
made up of the best and most available
material in the several wards. 1t now
remains to pick out the winners at the
primaries next Saturday evening.
A feature OF the day in local politics
was the formal application by a COM
mittee OF Democrats to Judge George
| Z. Boyd for permission to use his name
as q candidate for Mayor. Several
days since, in expressing himself upon
this matter. Judge Boyd said he would
not be candidate, but since then the
pressure brought TO bear upon him has
been great, and yesterday be consented
to go before the voters at the primary
election. This decision became gener-
alIv known last evening, and at the
| Third ward suggestion meeting the can
didacy of Judge Boyd was enthusiastic
cally endorsed. John Crockard was
also recommended to the voters for
| Wharfmaster, despite his declination 10
| be a candidate.
