esdsd that the great majority Of the Es-
rghttran nominees will be elected The
democrats have made no nominations
Whatsoever In the Third ward Alex

lists have nominated freely. and ifdepen-
Gent candidates are abundant

20 be war between factions or fhe Hspae-
iican rsarfy, as AZ the primaries the fight
ing was not. bat the differences now seem
a, BE- cooled, and administration and anti
administration Republicans are working
together for the success Of the whole
ticket.
The administration denies having made
fights at the primaries and IN the CON
yentIen, and announces Its WILLINGNESS 70
stand by the ticket straight through. Il
Is admitted. however. that some friends
of fhe administration conducted local
NIGHTS IN several wards and In Instances
were badly beaten, bat the administration
holds that these friends cid not repre-
sent the administration and that the Sc
seetlens made at the conventions are ae-
ceptable all around.

looked upon rs the head and front Of the
administration party, Ia conversation
with a Post-Intelligenee. representative
today. said:
I'm the Republican party OF the city
there II no local issue about which there
r. a division OF sentiment. The people Of
the city are disiaed only on the question
as 20 whether or not the present. council
has done the beat II could 80 recover the
money Boogs and his people took ont Of
the city treasury. There ls no doubt that
AT parties are anxious To recover funds
from the various hanks in which BogEs
placed them. and each faction thinks. OF
course Il would rather trust itself 90 90
the work than the other. Personally
think that either faction win deserve the
eommendation % the people II Il succeeds.
] believe both sides are thoroughly IA
earnest in their sadeagors TO secure the
same result.
Politically I intend 10 support the Re
publican ticket and the Republican nom
iaess ami I viii vote for Perry - Nor

very competent man. and II he acts dis
crestly when he gets In. as | have no
doubt he will. be will he able TO do
great deal OF good for Tacoma.
"a feature OF this campaign. think is
the recovery OF about $iaoooD Of the ci,y's
money. credited In local banks. some of
whom are in the hands OF receivers.
mo. I do not believe that the water
front question In a bone OF contention I'm
the campaign. I do not think there Is
man running who does not want the city

The energetic revival campaign IN
augurated by the Methodist churches
of Philadelphia has occasioned a de-
cided stir in that ordinarily placid city;
and the big First Regiment armory, in
which the meetings are held are in
consequence crowded nightly. There
as exhibited by some of the Protestant
churches In the Quaker City dispo-
sition to scoff at the unconventional
processes of this revival, but this is
merely one manifestation Of the wide-
spread spirit of exclusiveness and
patrician indifference to the unfortu-
mates Of earth which existed among the
Pharisees in Christ's ,time, and which
has not vet wholly disappeared.
