The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1895-03-27

the nomination Tor city treasurer but w.
&. Bachelor of the First National bank
has entered the field against
him and things are favorable
for pretty race. The only republican
aldermen whose terms expire this spring
are ii. Godin. in the Sixth and Byron II.
Cook in the Eighth. Mr.. Cook has made
an excellent alderman and there is no
doubt that he will be renominated. Mr..
Godin, however, is likely to meet with op-
position from eX-Alderman X. ii. Paxson,
and possibly David Maule. The other
wards have their full quota of seekers
after aldermanic honors.
Another democratic meeting was held
at the council chamber this evening to
receive the report of the committee of 10
that was appointed at the first meeting to
formulate plan of campaign. The room
was crowded and over half of those in at
tendance were populists and members of
the A. p. A., who, it was thought,
were present TO stir up trouble
and create another scene similar
TO that which characterized the
meeting OF the republican committee of
100 at the court house. They were doomed
/ to disappointment, however, and the
democrats wore broad smiles at the close
of the meeting. The committee reported
that after holding three meetings they
we're unable to decide upon plan and
asked for further time in which to pre-
pare their report. 1t was unanimously
decided TO give them until Saturday even
ing, and the meeting adjourned until that
time.
The political plot is thickening rapidly.
Immediately after the democratic meet
ing adjourned tonight about 100 of the
populists got together and held a meeting
IN the Mantle & Biclenberg block. II. ).
Davis presided and j. j. McNerney was
elected secretary. The members of the
city central committee were
nearly all present and they seemed to
cherish the belief that by getting their
ticket in the field before the democrats
meet again on Saturday evening they
would stand a show of securing demo-
cratic endorsement for at least one or
pedite matters as much as possible 1t was
decided not to hold primares-a proceed
ing which Is becoming very fashionable
and the city central committee was
authorized to select delegates and call
n convention as soon as possible. The
committee then held meeting and called
the convention for next Thursday even
ing at 3 o'clock in Caplice hall and Sc
lcctcd delegates thereto. L. Ii. Howell
appeared to be much the strongest candi-
uate lot mayor ana Juuge CianSy Is very
favorably mentioned in connection with
tho nomination for police magistrate.
