with McConochie and Schroeder to Hear
From One Finger in the Pie Deeper
Than Ever
Enthused and soothed by the out
come of the recent election. the re-
publican leaders have already begun
to discuss mayoralty possibilities in
the spring. Indeed, it may be said
that inspired by an ambition to rem
der party service under whoever
stands in the light of possible can
didates. party hangers on have been
conducting a series of protracted
conferences on the street for some
moons. The witching hour of -
| sometimes does not witness the adj
Journment of these confidential dis
cussions. While it is to be presumed
the mayoralty is the first considera-
ton, who is to have the assurance of
the appointment of chief of police in
event OF the unexpected happening,
and the republicans winning the day
is by no means of minor thought
In fact, OF all the street caucuses vet
held the single idea is apparently on
the question of the head of the po-
lice, and from the preliminary
groundwork, it is very evident that
whoever the republican nominee
may be, he will he pledged to one in
dividual ut least long before the last
snow fall, or the ides of March are in

Carse Leads Them.
Up to date exMavor Henry Carse
leads all candidates talked of. and his
friends are excrting that quiet polit-
ic zeal which it is expected will keep
him in the van until after the nomi-
mating convention shall nave been
held. ExMavor William McCono-
chic has not rallied his forces as vet,
and whether he will find time to en-
ter the arena is not known. If he
does enter the canvass he will make
1T interesting among republicans,
Notwithstanding his overthrow of
two years ago. Police Magistrate
w. F. Schroeder, the standing candi-
date for the mayoralty nomination,
will, it is understood, make one more
effort to head the ticket. and is will
ing to lay down his magisterial du-
ties or anything else. in order to
