COL. M'aulLLAN's SCHEME.
How He Is Planning to Secure Democratic
Nomination for Mayor.

And now the fun begins Col. George
F. McQuillan is either out for the Demo-
cratic nomination for mayor or his
friends are out for it in his behalf and
with his knowledge. Ex-Msyor Ingra-
! ham has been putting in lot of solid
work for himself and Is said to have the
gang" at his beck and call He wants
to be mayor again, but some OF the
strongest men in the Democratic party
don't want Mr.. Ingraham as their candl-
| date If they can prevent it. They have
not forgotten the trouble MIR. lngraham 8
hackers caused the Democratic party sew
eral years ago when an attempted count
| ont was made in Ward 1. They are
anxious to win, but not with Mr.. Ingra-
| ham as their leader. Col George F. Nc
OuilIan thinks he might prove an excel
lent compromise candidate and his
friends are doing all that they can in his
behalf A clever scheme Is to be worked
by them at the Democratic caucuses.
They propose to have the delegates to the
Democratic mayoralty convention go I'M
pledged to any candidate. In the most
| artful manner possible they have inserted
the names of men who are hostile to Mr..
Ingraham on the caucus ballots. In this
way they hope to defeat Mr.. Ingraham
without a fight.
One of Mr.. Ingraham's strong argu-
ments in support of his claims to the
Democratic nomination in his Influence
among the Hebrews of Portland. The
Hebrews are quite a power in matters
political in this city. In some wards
where they are very numerous they may
be- said to hold the balance Of power.
Among the Hebrews Mr.. Ingraham has
been quietly moving since his return
from Halifax and he Is said to be very
popular among them. The longshoremen
are also verysstrong politically and Mr.
Ingraham claims to have all of them as
his supporters. By combining these two
powers he hopes to not only secure the
nomination, but also the election. Here
comes the friends Of Col McQuillan,
however. and say that Mr.. Ingraham can
cut no ice whatever among the Hebrews
and longshoremen and that the Colonel
himself is the only man who can abso-
lutely rely upon the Hebrews and long
shoremen. Col. McQuillan also claims
to have the support Of all the influential
Democrats in the city and if the dele
gates go to the mayoralty convention IN
pledged he believes he may secure the no.
| mination.
AS matter of fact neither ex-Mayor
Ingraham nor Col. McQuillan can control
the Hebrew or longshoremen' support.
The Republican Hebrew club has voted
to stand by the Republican candidates
while the Independent Hebrew club is
unpledged to any candidate of either
party and are not to be reckoned on as
sure thing by either Col. McQuillan
or ex-Mayor Iugrahsm.
