A SLATE FOR 1900
ANII-sHANNoN MEN SAID TO HAVE
AGREED UPON 1T.
WARD FOR COURT OF APPEALS
PROSECUTING ATTORNEY JAMES A.
REED FOR CONGRESS.
Jim Pendergast Said to Have Given
Up His Erstwhile Ambition to BE
County Marshal In Favor of
His Brother Tom, Now
Deputy Marshal.
PROSECUTING ATTORNEY JAMES A.
REED FOR CONGRESS.

It is declared in Democratic political cir
cles that Brother JIM Pendergast has
given way to Brother Tom" The alder
man will continue to stick to his business
and will continue to direct local politics for
Stephens. According to one who Is on the
inside. Jim has given up his one time ambi-
ton to be county marshal, 1t Is said, and 1t
is all done in the interest Of Brother
Tom.' What difference does 1t make to
the Pendergast family who holds the chief
job, they argue. so long as all the brothers
get deputyships?
In this way reasoned Marcy X. Brown
and James Pendergast. Flushed with the
victory over the Shannonites which the con-
firmation Of Gregory and Ward as police
commissioners rendered decisive, they pro-
claimed a great pow-wow the other day
and invited in the little chiefs Of the gang.
The place was Pendergast's saloon. The
attendance was good. Spirits ran high.
and one could hardly tell big chief from q
little chief.
Taking the bull by the horns, one Of the
most worshiped master politicians sug-
gested that roll Of the exalted be called.
Something was brewing. The ron was
found to contain these names: Thomas
Pendergast. Henry Julian, Frank johnson,
Fred Fleming. Hugh c. Ward. Edward
Becker. James A. Reed.
"These are they whose names are not
writ in foam." solemnly proclaimed one
chieftan. Tried and true they have been
found to the gang; 10! We will push them
against the Shannonites."
And SO it was decided by big chiefs and
little chiefs alike. and a Democratic coun-
ty ticket for the election in 1900 was de.
creed as follows:
Judge Of the court Of appeals-Hugh G.
Ward.
Congressman-James A. Reed.
Prosecuting attorney-Frank g. johnson.
Senator to succeed Youug-Henry 8. Ju-
Ian.
Assessor-Tom Caldwell, of Independence.
Sheriff-Ed Collins, who formerly ran q
saloon with Joe Mcclure on Eighth street.
Marshal-Thomas Pendergast.
Treasurer-John Tobin, of Westport.
Surveyor-Frank O'Flaherty..
Representative in Cleary's district-Fred
Fleming.
Pat Moore, of Westport.
The chieftans agreed that there were no
lights like the original seven candleSticks.
and the other names on the ticket are there
from motives of interest to the Pendergast
family and tribe.
be nominated for lieutenant governor to
make place in the senate for Julian.
Tobin will be given the treasurership to
get him out of the idea Of running against
Pendergast for marshal. The other names
on the ticket will not weaken 1t with the
gang. So 1t was thought.
A full account Of this pow-wow would be
incomplete We're 1t not stated that the CO.
horts agreed to let Stephens name the next
governor Of Missouri.
