polltan Temple this evening. Colonel
John I. Irish ard other orators nave oeen
invited TO speak. The entire municipal
and Legislative tickets will be Endorsed.
Inc effort to have meeting OF the Gen
eral Committee called for Monday night
next is still causing much discussion among
the Democrats. The pretext now put for
ward Is that new campaign committee,
to consist of five from each Assembly Dis
trict, should be appointed at once To take
the place of the present committee oil one
from each district. Some of the members
| allege that this is but subterfuge to get
the meeting called, and that the real OBJ

| providing for a new General Committee.
Such step is strongly opposed by those
who think that the Democracy would do
we'll to postpone this row until after the
| election They say that there is plenty of
| bitterness in the party now without rails

a repetition of the disgraceful scenes that
were witnessed at the convention.

one to be held in Union Hall and the
other out in the Mission.
The Democratic campaign committee met
| last night with Chairman J. NJ. Klein pre-
siding and discussed ways and means of
! pressing the municipal fight. The question
| of registration was very fully discussed.
| The Democrats are becoming alarmed at
the increased registration at the new City
Hall and are raising the cry that the rolls
are being stuffed in the interest of the Re-
publican party. The registration is really
| not as heavy as it was at this time last
year, but it has increased sn rapidly with
in the past week that the Democrats have
taken the opportunity to cry out, whether
they are hurt or not Each mem Der of the
campaign committee was constituted last
night a committee of one to see that his
district is properly canvassed. The CON-
mittee will meet again Monday evening al
| the headquarters IN the California Hotel.
| where the Democratic candidates will also
assemble TO deliberate upon campaign
matters.
