to follow him. but he fired twice at her
from the sidewalk and she closed the
door. The first bullet passed above

Things Look Bright for Democratic Sue
cess In the City.
The conference meeting of the city dem
ocra tic executive committee and the NOM
inees for mayor and aldermen, which
was to have been held last night, was
postponed on account of quorum of the
committee not being present.
Several of the committee were present
and nearly all of the candidates, and on
motion the meeting was organized for the
purpose of hearing reports from the va
rIous wards and entertaining suggestion
that might be beneficial to the ticket by
calling Dr. Wilder to the chair.
The reports from the various wards
give evidence that the democrats are
alert and are watching the movements
Of the opposition. Also, that the general
disposition among the voters Is to abro-
gate any further political disruption that
might arise, and will support the demo-
cratic ticket as nominated.
1t was decided to put speakers in the
field to inform the voters on all points
that may arise of interest to the city
government and to meet any misrepre-
sentation that may be made.
1t was also decided that regular confer
ence meetings. will be held In the cam
paign headquarters every night except
Sunday until the close of the campaign.
