Ir is several weeks before the eau
cuses are held which determine the
Providence city council nominees.
Affairs in the Eighth Ward are
slowly shaping themselves, and the
names OF several, at least, on the
Republican ticket are practically de-
cided upon, as far as it lies in the
power of the ward committee. 1t is
generally conceded that Councilman
Parker will be the Republican nom
inee for alderman. Councilman
Darling, it is supposed, would not
be averse to promotion, but he now
halls from the small end Of the ward,
and the annex portion claim the
alderman from the preponderance OF
votes that is cast in that section.
Councilman Darling will doubtless
be one Of the four nominees for the
common council. Mr.. T.. ]. San
Souci is practically sure of one Of
the three remaining places, and John
I. Kenyon and L. Fenner Irons are
"mentioned" for the other two. Mr..
Kenyon is in the west, and his feel
ings in the matter are not known,
though it is generally thought that
he would not be averse to serving
the city in this capacity. Mr.. James
Davis has been talked Of for alder
man, but it is now understood that
Mr.. Davis will accept a place on the
council ticket. Just how his candi-
dacy is viewed by the ward commit
tee is not known. but it is safe to say
that if his name is not presented IN
the Republican caucus by the ward
committee, 1T willbe by someone else.
