BOSSES COMBINE.
Burns and Buckley Meet and Fix Up
Combine Ticket.


Two men met in the Baldwin Hotel
wineroom on Friday evening. October 25.
and, after conyersng there for about an
hour, departed. One of the men was
blind, and was led to the place by friend,
who escorted him from the hotel at the
close of the conference. He emerged
from Mr.. Baldwin's hostelry on the Ellis
street side. The other man. some time
later, passed out of the hotel on the
Market-strset side. He was not physically
blind. and therefore mad no guide.
The two men were Dan Burns and
Christopher A. Buckley. They were seen
entering the wineroom by reputable
gentleman employed by the Collector of
Internal Revenue. and what they did
there it is not difficult to imagine. There
and then the TWO bosses decided what
candidates should be supported by them
and their heelers, and who should be
knitted, turned down and defeated.
a ticket was prepared and is now being
distributed among the workers of both
parties who owe allegiance TO the bosses.
Republican and Democratic workers alike
go to Johnny Farley's saloon on Bush
street to receive their instructions from
Buckley and learn how to pack the ticker.
The combine has not issued its orders
touching Congressional candidates, but
will attend to that little matter before it is
too late.
The workers have received strict orders
to labor in the interests of the Republican
Senatorial and Assembly candidates. Burns
wants no legislation hostile to himself or
the railroad. A Democratic Legislature
might be difficult to manage and would
hardly vote for his candidate for the
United States Senate.
O'DonnelI is the mbine' candidate fer
Mayor. Burns and the corporations on Il

men few days ago to work for O,Donnell
and the chances are that men who have
been accused of counting the doctor out in
the past will labor hard to have him
counted in this time.
Levy and Louderback are the com bine
candidates for the Superior Court. The
former is a favorite with Buckley and ''de

| Police Commissioner d. NJ. Burns
John T. Creamy is the chosen man
| for District Attorney. Buckley and
| Burns fear that young Mr.. Barnes
cannot win this time under any circum-
|
labor in working for him. Barclay Hen
ley must be defeated at any cost. Heaven
! only knows what dire calamities might
| overtake the practical politicians If he
were elected. Buckley can't speak Ger
man and detests Baden Baden, Rainey
loathes the very name of Canada, and thu
| Colonel doesn't know what might happer

Registrar of Voters, if Henley were
elected. So, because Barnes election il
supposed to be impossible and Henley's i:
known to be loaded, they have ordered
the workers to support Creamy.
Curry is on the slate for County Clerk
Republican and Democratic hselers alik,
must work for him, because Haley is no
only honest-which is bad enough--bu
has kept his promise to the people, which
is the objectionable sin.
The bosses have selected Richard ]
Whelan as their candidate for Sheriff
He will have many offices to distribute
and they have agreed to tighten his labo
when the time comes. Why Ruddick wa
not selected is not explained, out the prob
able reason is that having given tn
county clerkship to a Republican the
deemed it advisable to award tn
} shrievalty TO Democrat. The worker
under the combine are busily engaged II
spreading slanderous reports about Nc
Nab, who. 1T has been decreed, must nc
be elected under any circumstances.
Pierce for Superintendent of Streets
Worth for Auditor. Bryan for Assessor
Creswell for Attorney. Blake for Coroner
Wiley for Public Administrator, an
!, Fitzhugh for Surveyor have been selected
Some of them have good records, but th
ring could not help itself.
/ The spirit of Machiavelli was hig
when candidates for the Board of Super
visors were chosen. The bosses scanne
the lists and chose from them the six r.
pubicans and six Democrats who wer
not Endorsed by the Non-Partisans. Thei
candidates are: Joseph King, Fred |
! Jones. G. E. Benjamin. Z. Il. Soule, Ere
, A. Hess, Michael Kane, Ii. B. Cocker
!, A. g. Spreckels, Frank Lester and E. /
Wagner.
, The candidates for Police Court Judge
! are: J0achlmsen. Low, Regen sburger an
Foote. Campbell has been boycotted b,
, cause he smashed the slate at the CONVEX
r tion and obtained a uomiD alton that wa
meant for another. He is, however, IL
1 adored candidate of the criminal eemen
: and hopes that the friends he has mad
will not fail him on the day of judgmen
. which is next Tuesday.
