LINCOLN CLUB DOOMED.

Demand That John H. Ives
Shall Go to the
Senate.

AHo htpuullCdHS Oh tnIS CITY are
striving to neal the wide breach in their
ranks accustomed by the campaign Of
last spring, and until they do the plac-
ing on its feet OF the proposed Lincoln
club will be in doubt. There is coll
tention over the precinct primary plan,
but that would be easily settled if a
certain woodchuck could be smoked
out. That small animal is the real
cause Of the trouble, although OH the
surface the contention seems to he over
difference as TO how the delegates TO
the county convention should be select
ed. Some of the party workers are not
SLOW to go to the bottom of the affair,
however. and to declare with hard set
teeth and mingled with curses that the
crowd that ran the things in the last
city campaign will have to give up
before the nominations OF they
will be showed under at the polls.
This side claims to belong TO the
straight out Republican clubs of the city
and assert that the other side has its
strength in the Republican league clubs
which were organized on the well known
platform of municipal reform, but
which is said to he nothing more nor
less than the American party about
which so much has been said. The
latter have become so strong that they
have refused to yield and are fighting
for control of the party machinery.
There was beautiful fight between the
twh frtons last Friday night in the
Eighth ward. The old Republican club
had meeting in progress and refused
10 admit the league club that had de-
manded admission, and being refused
broke open the door, and the meeting
ended in bad feeling and almost blows.
The fight between the factions was re-
newed at the meeting of the committees
Saturday last and was so bitter that tIls
cali for the county convention was. post
pOned and the organization of the Linl
coin club postponed. "a
1t is asserted that the executive com
mittee selected by the county and the
city committees will not dare open the
doors of the Lincoln club until 1t is
decided which faction will give in. on
the plan OF campaign proposed The
executive committe as agreed upon is
said to favor +. B. Doran, o. B. Lewis
or F. &. Bryant for president, and it's
influence will be thrown to the league
clubs. The selection of F. c. Stevens
or F. w. Zollman as officers Of the cub
had to be abandoned for the sake of
harmony, but the disposition of THAT
question did not har monize'9 tine
differences and they can't be simmered
down while there remains d DISPOSE ton
10 give the party over to the control of
the league clubs. A former deputy
sheriff says that Sheriff Chapel is SO
tied up by the leagues that his defeat
for denomination is now sure, and
even II he does get the nomination lie
will be knitted by a great many Repub.
licans. The fight between the factions
has grown so bitter that several candi-
dates for office have drawn out TO let
things simmer down, ana for fear that
they will become SO tangled up that
they will have their future political as
pirations killed. They have simply
stepped out of the path of the storm
that is raging in the ranks of the party
Of high moral lucas.

II have been asked to give a reason for
desiring the election Of Mr.. Ives to that
position, and would say that it is be-

could be named in the city. He has had
the experience of two terms in the house.
lie knows the needs of the city bet
ter than almost any man here. He is
lawyer and knows the effect of law.
He is familiar with our character. He
is forcible speaker. and is just such a
man as the city needs TO protect her in.
tsrestS i'll the coming legislature. He
has very large acquaintance through
out the state, and his jovial disposition
and ability to entertain makes him a
strong man with the lawmakers. In the
last legislature he was the strongest
man OH the Ramsey county delegation.
The city needs him, and it would make
mistake not to send him to the legis.
lature. He is strong before the people,
and would surely be elected if nomi-
mated"
