The Republicans in Council and their
laundering leaders outside of that
body. have been in sore straits ever
since the announcement was made that
the present city gas board would stand
for reelection. Notwithstanding the
regular Republicans allowed M. A.
Chew and his insurgent followers to
dictate another slate. The Republic
position and the Intelligencer with It's
usual failing of inserting Its pedal eN-
tremities into its vocal organ. made
matters worse. The Intelligencer was
evidently called down. however. after
taking sides in fight among Republic
cans. and has since been tame enough
to eat out of your hand.
The Republicans who are being
bound by the caucus have placed
themselves in the attitude of support
ing M. A. Chew against such ster-
ling Republican as II. Buchanan, whose
father was an abolitiohist, and who got
his politics in the cradle and has never
been accused OF swerving In his loyalty
TO the party,
IL wouldn't do to make too much
fuss over the slate, under the peculiar
circumstances. and the thing which
has commended itself to the Republi-
can strategists as the next best thing
has been an appeal to Mr.. Buchanan to
withdraw in the interest of harmony.
II was a strong card. 1t was played
well. and II all other influences had
been removed 1t would have won. Mr.
Buchanan is not in robust health. and
has not been eager to succeed himself
but the bitterness OF the fight against
him begot determination on the part
of himself and his friends TO defeat the
Vaccinations of the insurgents.
Tuesday the harmony shouters won
a victory, and the lntelligeneer
was in high glee yesterday when 1t
made the announcement that Mr.. Buck
man had withdrawn. Mr.. Buchanan S
friends, however were unwilling to
permit him to surrender to the insur-
gents. and induced him to reconsider
his determination.
AS the matter stands, Mr.. Buchanan
Is in the hands of his friends and his
attitute with reference to his candl-
dacy may depend upon future develop
| ments. II was stated authorltatively
last night that he would not be can
didate, however.
The statement In an evening paper
that the Democrats were to have held
another caucus Tuesday night. but
abandoned 1t on account of the dis
covery that they could not get sufii-
cient number to attend. is not borne
out by the facts. No effort was made
to hold meeting and half a dozen
Democratic Councilmen who were
spoken to by a reporter yesterday
stated that they had not been APP
preached on the subject.
The Democrats will await a positive
statement regarding the candidacy of
Mr.. Buchanan. If he withdraws. as a
matter of course another caucus will
be necessary. Leaders among the
Democrats in Council stated yesterday
that this is the situation, and that If
Mr. Buchanan is candidate they will
support the present gas board.
