Helping the Greater Six.

The managers OF the Citizens
campaign held a secret meeting in
the city council chamber at the
city hall yesterday, but as every
one present seems to be oathboupd
the LIGHT had a hard time to
learn the result Of the confab.
Enough was cleaned, however, to
state that the coaxing process was
INDUCED In to induce w. A. Wurz-
bach and John Pullman to remain
on the ticket for county judge and
surveyor respectively, and 1t was
also decided to pull down Ben
Kiolbassa and sacrifice Albert
Meyer, city auditor, instead as
treasurer. Geo. j. F. Schmitt
would not run for county clerk,
and Antonio Rivas took his offer
under advisement. The ticket will
not be completed until tomorrow,
it is said.

he was first appointed by Governor
Hogg under the strong endorse
ment of both Judges Noonan and
King, Of the District courts, the
