AMONG THE DEMOCRATS.
The nsyorsIty Question snd ward
Four Politics

II seems to be the consensus OF
opinion in Democratic circles that John
II. A. Merrill win be nominated as the
standard bearer OF that party in the mu-
nioipal campaign next spring. The senti-
ment for the present member Of the
school committee from /. ward four has
been growing more and more in his Ia
vor. Mr.. Merrill is making no effort at
all for the nomination ana all that he
has said in relation to the affair is that II
the Democrats desire him to be their can
didate he VIII accspt. Thus far his name
has been about the only one to be serious
ly mentioned In this connection, The
name OF ex-Postmaster George l.. SWEET
has been talked of In some places as has
also Leander w. Fobes, bat 1t Is believed
that both OF these gentlemen Will step
aside and allow q clear field for the NOM
nation OF Mr.. Merrill.
Aside from the mayoralty question the
only ether prominent Issue among the
Democrats is In the nomination for al
oumbent from that ward, Frank l. Moore,
IL n Republican. He has moved ont OF
the ward since his election last spring
and Is Of course ineligible to again stand
as candidate from four. Already
Councilman George II. Thomas, who 10
l OnD Va bnNU5 representatives. AAoAH wy
ward In the lower board, has ANNOUNCED
| that he will be a candidate for alderman
10 honors, 1t was also stated Saturday
that Councilman Luther u. Rob3rts, the
other Democratic representative In the
lower board from this ward, might enter
the aldermanio tight. But Joseph Il. r..
Connolly, who was defeated last spring
while running against Alderman Moore,
may decide TO once more try his hand.
| SATURDAY when he was seen regarding
| the matter he said that he was so busliy
engaged Ia private affairs that he had
| hardly found time to think OF politics.
His friends, however. are anxious that
he shall again stand. They point out
that q great advantage should accrue to
Mr.. Connolly In the contst from the fact
that he has always stood by the party
while it Is asserted that Councilman
Thomas cut the regular ticket in the
sheriff campaign Of last September and
votsd for Sheriff Despeaux instead oil
supporting Mr.. Barton, the Democratic
nominee. They also state that Council
man Roberts also cut the Democratic
ticket ON this question and voted for Rev.

Visitors Came Within
Six Inches Of Scoring.
Sensational Contest on the
Dcering Grounds.

The Portland High school boys were
jubilant Saturday and with good reason.
In the prsttiest football game played on
the Deerng grounds this year they de-
featsd the Bangor High school team by
Kicking goal from the field after ten
minutes OF play in the first half. A pref
ty pass was made to Conley who dropped
on his knees, placed the ball on the 20
yard lins and Soldiers as quick as flash
sent 1t spinning between the goal posts
thus making The only score OF the game.
Once Bangor got the ball within six
inches of the Portland goal line. There
Portland held them twice In succession
without giving up an inch. Then Ban
gor in close formation tried to push LIB
by over the intervening six inches.
Portland pluckily made another stand
and held them again. For the fraction
of second the ball was plainly to be seen
on top of the jumb.ed up heap of players
and 1t moved either forward or back,
Someone shouted down and Mr.. Sulii-
van. the referee. blew his whistle. Then
the Bangor men forced the ball over the
line and claimed touchdown. Mr.. Sui
Ivan did not allow 1t because II had been
made after his whistle sounded. Again
Bangor tried to gain this six inches and
failed and the ball was given to Port
land just as the first half ended. This
was the most sensational feature Of
this interesting game.

Mr. Bailey of Texas is quoted in an inter-
view as expressing the hope that his party
may not nominate a Second-clasS man for
the vice presidency. The sentiment does
him honor The office is an important one,
and Mr.. Bryan is entitled to a running
mate who will make the ticket symmetri-
cal both for character and attractiveness.
The Star has expressed this opinion sew
eral times. But Mr.. Bailey. not to leave
the matter of his idea of a first-class man
in doubt. mentions Senator Daniel of Nir-
ginia, and ex-Congressman Shively of In
diana, as in every way filling the bill. And
he Is right also about that. They are eX-
cellent men, and either would fill the office
of Vice President most acceptably.
As to Mr.. Daniel, it is doubtful if he
would care for the nomina ton. He is
placed to his liking where he now Is And
he serves his party well in his present
place. He is a good speaker and debater,
and his party needs him the floor. He
is very popular at home, and is supposed
to have virtually a life hold on his office.
He has entered upon his third term. To
run and be defeated would not be pleasant.
To run and be elected would hardly fill him
with delight. So that the probability is
Mr.. Daniel himself would prefer that some
other selection be made.
Mr.. Shively has qualities that recon-
mend him He IS a young man-only forty
three. He has served several terms in
Congress, and is familiar with public ques-
tons. He Is good speaker. He is a clean
and an aggressive man, much on the Bryan
order He would probably be quite accept
able to the popuiists. He entered politics
as greenbacker. and is probably a green
hacker today, though like others of that
faith, subscribing to free silver as the
next best thing. The republicans. by their
blunder with the Porto Rican tariff ques-
ton, have filled the Indiana democrats with
hope, and democrats elsewhere with hope
of Indiana. Mr.. Shively is recognized
leader of his party at home. He was de-
feated FOR governor in 1895. but that was
a bad year for democrats in all of the mid
die states.
All things considered. therefore, the
ticket of Bryan and Shively is a suggestion
for which Mr.. Bailey need make no apol-
ogy. The party might go further and do
great deal worse. 1t will be certain to do
worse if it takes any one of the half
dozen eastern men whose names for one
poor reason or another are on the tongue
OF gossip whenever the vice presidency is
mentioned.
