A LITTLE LOCAL POLITICS.

In accordance with the calls issued by
the state central committee, the Repub-
lican city and county committee met yes
terddy afternoon in the Lincoln cub
rooms to issue the call for the primaries
and county convention. In the absence of
A. Albrecht, chairman of the city and
county organization, F. w. Root presided
The call, as read by Secretary Fred NJ
Schultz. was adopted. The primaries will
be held June 20, from to T. and the
county convention on the following day
June q, in Mozart hall. There will be S55
delegates elected at the primaries to at
tend the county convention, and seventy
five will be selected at the county con-
vention to attend the state nominating
convention, which will be held in the Au-
ditorium, June rs.
Sam Lowenstein objected to the clause
in the call for the primaries which invites
people, regardless of their party affilia-
lions, so long as they believe in Republic
can principles, to attend the primaries
Sam objected to this, because, as he said,
it would throw the gates open to crooks,
of whom, he said, there were many in
the city. It was pointed out, however, that
the section was taken directly from the
call for the state convention, so Sam sub

AS a politician Lord Rosebery has been
a success a least in one direction: His
political opponents seem to have much
difficulty in understanding him. H,s
latest appearance, at least in the cable

the Liberal party, Is in the nature of a
nine-day wonder. He cannot continue to
act in that character. war or no war, and

attained in purely political life by
his association with the party and the

He consulted the little memorandum
with puzzled face. Eight or nine
pounds'-it was there plain enough,
in Juliet's slender chirography. The
marketman rubbed his hands together
and exp.ained:

reckoned it-no. sir! You'd have to
add on three.
"M-m!" he said aloud, in sudden
enlightenment. Juliet need not have
told him. She met him at the door
with a queer little smile.

space of a moment, without further
speech.

''Yes, my dear, certainly"
"They're all three coming. She said
she was delighted to change their
plans so that they could take advan-

Juliet fumbled with button of his

Way round the table. can you?"
queried he, gravely.
They went into the dining-room and
made elaborate plans, and Juliet
counted her best napkins. After all,
it was all right, they decided, with
fine attempt at cheerfulness
The next day Romeo-John. on his
homeward way, caught a glimpse Of
a small woman that looked unmis-
takably like Juliet. She was hurry
ing out of Mr.. Pitchers market, and
he thought she glanced over her
shoulder guiltily. lie tried to catch
her car, but failed. Probably it
wasn't Juliet, after all-what would
Juliet be doing down at Pitchers
again? Umph! there were other
small women in the world. But Ro-
meo-John knew there was but one
Juliet. He was unsurpassed when she
! met him at the door and confessed.
II saw you, my dear" he said.
II saw you, Romeo. Then I hurried
like everything-Romeo."
"WeN?"
But she need not have told him.

"M-m-m," muttered Romeo-John, in
distinctly.

He gasped spasmodically. What
code of morals was this? Invite them

she knew they wouldn't come! The
gentle voice ran on:
"Of course, Basil and Leonora will

were going to take him into the coun-
try for the quiet. She said they were
going at once. I shall have just time
to get in my invitation. You see there
are no risks. Romeo"
MOO" he murmured, still uncon-
vinced.
well, I'll take all of them there
are!" Juliet cried. gayly.
She had whipped little tablet and
pencil out of her pocket and was jot-
ting something down hurriedly.
"Turkey-eight or nine pounds-one
good sized chicken Zone will make a
pie, if you stretch him)-bunch of ce,

She went on writing down items. in
her neat, slanting, little letters. Ro-
meo-John looked over her shoulder adj
miringly. They were the same dainty
characters that had fled in close ranks
across his love-.etters from Juliet, only
they had spelled different words then.
What sweet words they spelled!

Last year at home we had to put up

mentally dubbed them, were duly writ
