The Republican leaders have pushed lie
organization of ward and precinct clubs
in every part OF the city during the last
two weeks and the result has been that the
party is being well equipped for making
successful fight in the next election. The
Republican convention will meet February
rs for the nomination of fun ticket.
The contest for the nomination for mayor
seems to be among three well known Repub-
leans. These are Mayor Humes, II. b. Cor
don and Justice of the Peace Austin. Mayor
Humes' candidacy for denomination Is be-
ing advocated by a number of prominent
Republican workers who have been his pol
itical and personal friends several years
and who went to him several weeks ago.
when. 1t is understood, he was undetermin-
ed whether to stand for another term, and
urged him to enter the race. OF hjs candi-
dacy the mayor said yesterday.
II have informed my friends that would
accept denomination IL they wanted me 10
and could not get stronger man. III ON
nominated. / shall make the best campaign
know how and should expect to win. Ny
friends understand that If they want me
and the people are satisfied. all right. I'll
take another term. That's all there Is to
it,
The mayors friends are organizing a
strong movement In his interest and are
actively preparing for the city convention.
Mr.. Gordon is one of the best known
Republicans in the city. He is in the en-
ployment of the Seattle Gas and Electric
Company and has been long identified with
the business interests of the city. He has
been importuned by a number of his per-
sonal and political friends to become an
aspirant for the nomination for mayor. but
has not yet consented to enter the race.
His friends claim he would be an admirable
al TOD erfx,
city businesslike administration. They
believe he will yet consent to permit his
name to be used. Mr.. Gordon's name has
been sometimes confused with that of ex-
County Clerk Tom Gordon Harry Cor
don was deputy in Clerk Gordon's Office.
but there Is no blood relationship between
them.
Judge Austin Is being supported by sew
eral well-known Republican workers who
say his chances OF winning the nominal
ton are good. He has resided in the city
for n number of years. and is well con-
versant with municipal politics. In the
campaign of 1896 Judge Austin was elect
ed Justice of the peace on the fusion
ticket, and for a time occupied the bench
at the municipal court. Two years ago.
however. he renowned fusion and rejoined
his OIL party associates. He was appoint
ed justice of the peace by the board of
county commissioners last June, in pur-
suance of an act passed by the last lcgis-
lature.
For City Comptroller.
For city comptroller the names OF Frank
Paul, John Riplinger and Clarence Bagley
have been prominently mentioned. Mr..
Paul is well known In Republican politics.
A short time ago he resigned the position
OF stamp deputy in the Internal revenue
department with the intention of engaging
In business pursuits. His friends, how
ever. went to him when It became known
The Seattle post-intelligencer. [volume] (Seattle, Wash. Terr. [Wash.]) 1888-1914, 1900-02-02

that City Comptroller Parry would not -
cept another term and persuaded Mr.. Paul
TO permit his name to be placed before the
Republican city convention for the nomi-
nation.
Mr. Riplinger is the chief deputy in
Comptroller Parry's office. He has many
friends who want to see him nominated
Mr.. Bagley is at present secretary Of
the board Of public works. He is an old
resident Of the city and state and has q
wide acquaintance He was formerly a
deputy in the office of the city comptrol-
Ter.
A new candidate for comptroller in the
person OF Harry Carroll. one of the WELL
known young Republicans Of the city, an
nounced himself last night. and 1t is said
will enter the race for the nomination
His friends claim that he has always been
an ardent supporter of the Republican
ticket. and has spent his time and money
in its interests.
The contest between the four candidates
is friendly one and the three that are
disappointed will give the successful
fourth loyal support.
Corporation Counsel Humphrey seeks
second term. Against him before
the convention will probably be Living
ston r. Stedman, popular attorney Of
wide acquaintance among Republicans
His candidacy was announced only short
time ago. but his friends say he has a
good chance of getting the nomination
Mr.. Humphrey has many ardent support
ers
For City Treasurer.
]. A. Kellogg and s. C. Rathbun the
latter chief deputy in Treasurer Foote's
office, are being talked Of for the nominal
ton for city treasurer. Mr.. Rathbun
is prominent among people who are inter-
ested In municipal politics. Mr.. Kellogg
came to Seattle two years ago from CO.
lumbla county. He has a wide acquaint-
ance among Republican workers, not only
in Seattle. but through the state.
Candidates for the council have been
talked Of generally during the past few
days Councilman James is expected to be
a candidate for reelection as councilman
at-large. Councilman Gill will. his friends
say, be renominated by reclamation from
the Third ward. Councilman Castleman is
said to be candidate for election from
the Fourth. The friends of DIR. Crichton,
council member from the Eighth ward,
have asked him to stand again, as have
also the friends of Councilman Taylor. of
the Seventh.
That there will be other candidates than
these seems assured. AS yet. however in
tending aspirants for councilmanic posi-
tons In all the wards have not announced
themselves.
