meetings.
An attempt will be made to do away
with the usual list of delegates at
large-the object being to get rid Of
George Thompson and others of the
ants who expect that they will have
to be taken in and given places on the
ticket at large. At one of the confer
ences held last night it was arranged
that the First, Eighth and Fifth wards
would stand together on this PROPOSE
ticn.
These three wards include 124 votes
and they would not cut much figure in
a convention Of 355 MEMBERS if the OPP
position was solid. AS it is, the oppo-
sition is not combined. The Fourth
will oppose the proposition. The three
wards named Will probably name Fine
bout for chairman; the Fourth will
| name Frank Griggs. They are both
young men and both fairly well
known. If the opposition gets together
! this morning the matter will be set
| tied with the question Of the chairman
| ship If Griggs is elected there will be
the usual fifteen delegates at large; If
| Finehout is named there will be neither
| ported plants nor palms handed to Mr..
| Thompson and those other gentlemen
whose place on the state ticket has
always gone without saying.
There will be caucuses this morning
before the convention Of the Seventh
and Eighth wards. The Seventh will
meet at the Windsor at 1890 to select
names for the ticket and the Eighth
will meet at Market hall for the same
| purpose.
Hitler H. Horton will call the conven-
ton together at II o'clock at Market
hail. The rules that governed in the
city convention will obtain. Precincts
that are not fully represented will be
filled by the delegates present. If there
are none present, the ward will name
the delegates.
1t will be tame enough affair If
the election of Finehout for chairman
does not bring on the contest. The
fight will be there, If fight there is
| to be.
