LIQUOR DEALERS AROUSED.

The Association Finds Upon Investigation
Who Their Friends Are.
The members Of the Liquor Dealers AS
sociation have been quietly investigating
for some time past the agitation for no Ii
cense In the city, and have endeavored to
ascertain who the promoters of the move
ment and signers of the petitions were.
In this effort they have been entirely
successful, and now are In possession Of
the names of the signers of the petitions
and the leaders of the movement. The
parties who have begun this crusade In
the line of temperance have acted very
quietly, and the members of the associa
tion when they ascertained who they
were, were astonished to find among the
number people whom they considered
their friends, and whom they have from
time to time assisted in business way
and more particularly business men, who
have profited by the trade thrown in theil
way by the association.
The members intend to shortly publish
the names of the signers of the petition
for the benefit of their friends.

AN ARABIAN NIGHT.

An Entertaining and Amusing Farca
Comedy For Remainder Of Week.
The production OF can Arabian Night"
promises to be one well worth seeing. II
h Is the reputation OF being one OF the best
farce-comedies now on the American stage,
and is interpreted by an exceptionally
capable company. 1t has strong comedy
plot which does not allow the interest to
flag at any time from the rise OF the cur
tain on the first act until 1t descends ON
the last. II is not an excuse for special
ties, as are a great many of our farce
comedy productions, but Legitimate and
thoroughly tested farce-comedy, which
always wins approval and popularity
wherever produced. 1t Is unquestionably
an attraction worthy OF recognition and
support.

FOURTH WARD.

Tiepkeism was conspicuous by its alb
sence at the caucus in this ward. There
was a small number of the ex-Mayor's
followers present, but they took no active
part in the caucus. In the absence of John
Burford, chairman Of the Ward Commit
tee, the 100 electors were called to order by
Herbert A. Rice, who was the only MEM
ber of the Ward Committee in attendance.
Even Boss Chandler of Fairlawn failed to
put in an appearance. No conveyances
were run from the Fairlawn district, where
interest in politics has been at low ebb
since last fall.

I'm SHORT ORDER
Was Business Transacted
by the Republicans
At Caucuses Held in the Several
Wards Last Evening.


There was nothing spectacular about the
Republican caucuses which were held last
evening to elect delegates to the State and
City Conventions and also for members OF
the City Committee. The Tiepke forces
cut but little figure in the proceedings. 1t
is noticeable that a large number of the
ward committees are new members.
The primaries showed nothing concern
ing the complexion of the Legislative
ticket, and the citizens interested In the
personnel Of the delegation will be COM
PEELED to wait until the convention, which
will be held at the District Court room
Saturday evening.
The delegates to the city convention
were authorized to act in the selection OF
q candidate for school committee should
the nomination of one by the convention
become necessary.
