Notes of Interest.

| Inc democratic convention Tor the pur-
pose OF nominating an Assembly ticket,
| selecting delegates to the convention to
be held next Tuesday, and for the con-
sideration of other business will be held
at the headquarters inthe Edgerton block
| this evening. The indications are that
| "the same old fight" will be on, as there
are two contesting delegations, one from
the third and the other from the sixth
| district.
There are rumors here and there con-
| corning the election OF delegates, so on
| the whole the convention will be inter-
esting. The makeup OF the legislative
ticket is still unsettled as it is quite likely
that dozen or more names will be put
before the convention, thus giving the
voters OF chance to ar their views and
there can be no charge made that the del
egates must endorse the choice OF u GER
| tain few.
The convention will stand: Town COM
mttee, twenty five delegates, with a con-
testing delegation representing each side
from the sixth district. This, 1t will he
seen, Is a substantial victory for the
forces led by the officials of the town
committee. Ii is hinted that the dele
gates selected by the "light OF the Lam
tern" will not materialize at the conven-
| tion.
Representatives OF the different factions
are to hold q meeting previous to the con
vention Tor the purpose of settling ali
differences and selecting ticket. There
Is no question that Arnold A. Mann will
| lead the ticket, however. He is unques-
| tionably the strongest man they could
secure. Among the names montione for
representatives are Hon. John Nj. But
| man, A. Il. Falcon, William II. Gllluly,
George w. Burnham, John Il. Gobeille,
James Il. Murphy, William Won Colts
chalk, Joseph r. Richards and William N.
Carey.
| The ticket selected will be strong one
and worthy OF the united support OF the
| Democracy. There is no reason why the
| Democrats should not do their duty.
