Yesterday afternoon City Clerk Carpenter
prepared the copy for the ballots to be used
at the coming election and turned it over
to the printer.
The ballots will be as follows: For mem
bers of the Board of Observation-Disclosures
]. Freitag, democrat; Cary NJ. Hunt, demo-
crat and peoples Independent; Antoine L.
Lott, republican; Nes Nelson, petition; AL
fred a. Nixon, democrat and peoples inde-
pendent; Nels Turnquist, republican and
peoples independent Walstein B. Wyman
republican.
The candidates for the city council will
appear upon the tickets as follows:
First Ward-James G. Graham peoples
independent; Allen R. Kelly, republican;
John S. Walters, petition.
Second Ward-Patrick j. Barrett, repub-
lican; Henry Mics, democrat.
Third Ward-Patrick Hyland, peoples in
dependent; John ]. Ryan, democrat; Patrick
j. Traynor, republican.
Fourth Ward-Wiliam p. Mul!aly, DEM
ocrat; Samuel Mort, petition and peoples
independent.
1t is not expected that any changes will
occur in the ticket unless it be the with
drawal of Nes Nelson from the race for
member of the Board of Eduction There
was some talk yesterday of Nelson with
drawing, but up to the time of closing the
clerks office he had not done so. The opin-
ion prevails that the republican nominees
will be elected.
The counclmanic fight is warming up
In the First ward Kelly, the republican
nominee, is said to be gaining ground every
day, and his election is predicted by re-
publcans and democrats alike. Kelly owns
considerable property in the city and is
quite heavy taxpayer. Walters, the demo-
cratic candidate is not wealthy, but his
friends say that he holds title to a lot
decided to him by the Union Stock Yards
company some years ago when he first en-
tered politics. He was not the choice of the
democrats OF the First ward, as no candi-
date was chosen at the primaries. This left
the opening Jack was looking for and he
promptly filed his petition.
The withdrawal of Franek from the race
leaves the fight in the Second ward between
Mics and Barrett Friends of Mics assert
that q republican has never been elected
to the council from that ward, Barrett can
not win. Barrett. the republican candidate,
is old resident and expects to get a large
percentage Of the Irish and Bohemian vote.
There Is a three-cornered fight in the
Third ward and it begins to look as If Pat
Traynor, the republican, will be at the head
of the list when the votes are counted.
Ryan, the democrat, is circulating around
among his friends and is setting the pace
in the race. Hyland, the republican, demo-
crat and populiSt, is not in it, so both Tray
nor and Ryan say.
Only two candidates will appear on the
Fourth ward ticket Mullaly runs as
straight democrat and Sam Mort by petit
ton. with the endorsement of the peoples
party. 1t Is the understanding that the re-
publicans will support Mort in an attempt
to defeat Mullaly, August Miller, the repub-
lican nominee, having withdrawn in favor

Rights in Patent Drug.

CHEYENNE, Wyo, March 27.-(Special)
An application was made to Judge Riner
in the United States court this morning on
behalf of Scheifflin & Co. of New York City
for an injunction to prevent Hugh l.. Tin
ling of Denver from selling the medical com
pound known as phenacetine, the applicants
claiming to have the exclusive right to sell
the drug in the United States under contract
from the patentees, German firm OF chem
lists. Judge Riner refused to grant the in
junction on the grounds that the matter had
recently been before Judge Hallett of Den
yer upon demurrer and referred the case to
Judge Hallett for hearing. Timing states
that the New York firm has been selling
phenacetine at the rate of 81 an ounce IN
the United States, when it costs them but
33 cents; that he is selling it for so cents
an ounce, and that the patent on the manu-
facture of the drug has expired and the Ger
man chemists under whose contract the New
Workers have been selling have no longer
the exclusive control of the article.

-Philo Green of this place, who has had
experience in the fruit business for the past
thlrty-five years, had strawberry plats in
bearing last season amounting to about 100
feet square. He claims that a man can
make a grand success Of small fruits every
season, with plenty of water at his COM
mand but that three or four days of dry
weather at just the wrong time-an unavoid-
able condition apt to happen in any part
of the country-will ruin almost any kind
of fruit. From his plat of 100 feet of straw
berry ground last season he sold berries and
plants to the amount of Sl35, which was
doing quite well from less than one-fourth
of an acre Others here had even better
success than Mr.. Green.
