March 81, when the club will meet at
the same place.

The young Democracy of the Fourth
ward held meeting last evening, at
their hall, over Yerxa's store Seventh
and Cedar streets. There were about
thirty present, many remaining away
probably on account of the storm. e.
q. Hinebaugh explained that he did not
wish his name used as a candidate for
alderman of the ward, as he would un-
der no circumstances accept the nomi-
nation II offered to him, which was not
likely to be the case. He therefore de-
sired that the club indorse some other
member for the nomination. f. e.
Messing's name was proposed and went
through unanimously. Mr.. Messing is
the president of the Fourth ward club, a
very popular young German and a bust
ness man. A member then stated that
he was going to ask the club to make
an Endorsement for mayor that would
do much to bring the party on the road
to succeSs,if he were nominated, as he
was everybody'S friend and the recog-
niZed friend Of the laboring men. He
referred to the eX-president of the CEN
trail organization, E. G. Hinebaugh He
was indorSed with cheers, but after
quiet was restored, Mr.. Hinebaugh
arose and said it was all foolishness; he
stood no show and was absolutely and
completely out of politics, except for
his friends, but he appreciated their
good will. He wanted to see a strong
ticket nominated, and then get out and
hustle and elect it.
Joseph Schroll, lawyer is being groomed
by the Fourth ward Republicans as an alder
manic candidate.
Why he should banker after an Independent
nomination in the Fifth ward is something that
would puzzle even Moritz Helm himself to ex-
plain. Such chase is as mysterious as one
n q h
Gcan convention.
Third ward Republicans are becoming SOM
nambulists, through trying to think of some
one to contest Aid. Ehrmanntraut's seat Even
Col. Lowenstein is said to have lost weight in
lodging the seekers for advice.
Among Fourth ward Democrats there ap-
pears to be growing understanding that
Anton Nielsen is to be the candidate for alder
man. Secretary Huber, of the Democratic
city committee, speaking as Fourth warder,
said yesterday he felt satisfied Mr.. Nielsen
will be the candidate.
Aid. Milham was inadvertently credited to
the Tenth ward in yesterdays o b e. He
resides in the Eleventh ward. Aid. Montgom-
cry represents the Tenth, at present; but If
Alexander Adams will consent to run on the
Democratic ticket 1t Is generally believed he
will be Mr.. Montgomery's successor.
People who know him express wonder as
10 MI. RedrOOnS meaning Wnen ne says Il can
do better work for the ticket if 1 am not on it
myself"
ITS simple enough said politician yes
terday. Tim does not like many of the peo-
pie proposed as Republican candidates, and If
he is foot-loose during the campaign he can
work for his particular friends only. If he
were on the ticket he would be compelled to
support all alike, or get cut himself. Then,
too, the big assemblyman is beginning to
realize that his temper units him for service
in deliberative body"
B. F. Knauft is believed to have cinch on
the Republican nomination for alderman in
the Second ward. Democrat 1t is predict
ed, will be elected, however, for the fight be-
tween Aid. Kartak and Pat Kelly for the
nomination will end with the closing Of the
primaries
A largely attended meeting of the voters
of the Eighth ward was held at Blaybushes'
hall, at which w. j. Preston was enthu-
ward. Another meeting will be held next
Tuesday night at Harbecks hall, on Rice
street.
The precinct committeeman of the Fourth
ward, on the Republican side, held long
meeting at the Windsor last night, the chief
subject. of discussion being the use of the
lists of voters which have been prepared
from the records in the city clerks office.
The idea is to keep close tab on all the
names registered two years ago, as we'll as
to make thorough investigation as to the
names of all new residents reported and
registered for the coming spring election.
There was also some discussion as to who
should stand the cost of the work incident to
this investigation and 1t was the consensus
of opinion that the city committee should
stand the brunt Of it, although the fact that
the work will rebound in a measure to the
advantage of the county committee in con-
nection with the fall canvass was made the
basis of a claim that the state or county
committees should bear portion of the cost.
