Geary was nominated. Now the faithful

to have his scalp.
Disaffection is not by any means con-
fined to the Geary episode in the local
Democracy. Many Of the rank and file
signs upon the whole ticket 1t has been
discovered that two men out of his Of
fee, in addition 10 himself. have received
municipal nominations. One Of his en-
ployes is Edmond GodchaUX, who has
been nominated for Recorder. and the
other is p J. Curtis. who has received
the nomination for Supervisor. These dis
coveries have added Insult to injury, par
ticularly from the fact that certain As
sembly districts and influential parts Of
the city, as the Mission for example, are
