Gov. Adams seem to be nolled He
will therefore continue to cut his usual
inch swath in city politics, and will
keep as close in to Jim Orman as pos
sible.
The suggestion is made that a. w.
Lennard act as chairman of the repub-
lcan convention and that G. G. Wells
be elected city chairman. The senti-
ment Of the party seems to be in accord
with this. No better selections can be
made.
The women have taken advantage OF
the Political times and demanded that
the city council create new office, that
of providing the city jail with a matron.
The council obeyed. The women did
the right thing, the alderman did the
right thing. The matron was needed
Several candidates for office have
made the important discovery that it is
not good policy to be aesthetic in pol
itics. If they cannot have nomination
rendered them on silver platter they
they must be content to receive it on a
tin plate or any old thing.
City Clerk Ross and Auditor Slife are
likely to be nominated to succeed them
selves They would both add strength
to the ticket as it would be no easy
matter to name any two persons who
could more ably and courtsously dis
charge the duties of their respective of
fees.
A friend accosted new man in the
political arena the other day and asked
why he had ceased to canvass for him
self, and received this queer answer:
~ feel that must let up said the
candidate. you see, | am new at
this business and it hurts my face to
talk so much"
Frank G. Raynor went in flying as the
democratic candidate for alderman from
the Eighth. He is now going after the
election with the same speed, and his
friends say it will take u good man on
the republican ticket to keep out of
his way. They base their judgement
on the fact that Mr.. Raynor is an en-
ploye OF the c, f. & l. Co. and that the
company will aid in his election.
Tho republican primaries will be held
in the varoua wards throughout the
city this evening. There should be
full vote OF the party. Unless there is,
any aspirant to office, and particularly
any candidate for alderman can
bring to bear small but solid vote for
a set of delegates favorable to himself
and thus get the Endorsement of his
ward which, in his case is as good az a
nomination. The thing to do is for
every voter to turn out and vote
for delegates who favor their choice for
alderman. No man or woman should
let feelings OF friendship toward any
delegate control them, but they should

egate expects to do if he should get

Takes a Hopeful, View.

One Of the first fruits Of the breaking
OF the rail agreement, the reductions in
wages at various mills, has an unfavor
able look on the surface. But the fact
that the buying capacity OF the work
men affected will be greater this year
than in any year since 1892, because OF
their steady employment, is the thing to
emphasize. There is agreement in the
belief that values will range low in all
iron and stsel lines in 1897, but buyers

The strike has already cost the state
S220,000. This is fearful drain upon
the treasury, and especially so these
close times, and the end is not yet.
There is a screw loose somewhere in the
machinery OF the state government
when it is possible to incur such an en-
ormous expense in legal way. An ar
