house band did its part splendidlV,
and Mr.. Emil Walter manipulated

ON THE sACRIFICIAL ALTAR.
Democrats Put Up a City Ticket for
Slaughter Next tuesday.

CITY democrats went through the
formasity of holding city conVen-
tion last Friday night and nomtnat-
ing ticket to be sacrificed on the
altar Of defeat, so usual in these mod
ern times, and again will that party
have the opportunity to designate
themselves HAS Beens".
The convention was presided over
by John W. Davis, and Hugh Jarvis
acted as secretary. The usual com,
mlttees were appointed, and the con-
yention oresoluted" en- law and order
and the enforcement Of the laws,
purely perfunctory custom of theirs
which amounts to as much with them
as pebble on the beach.
Harvey F. Smith and viii Thomp-
son were placed before the convention
for mayor. The ballot resulted in Sl3
for Thompson and 1871 for Smith.
Thompson was declared the nominee,
but it was not made unanimous.
J.T. Borgess. and John Howe were
before the convention for chief of po-
lice and, as isso often done, the demo-
Gratis sacrificed BoggesS. Howe re-
ceived % so votes and Borgess. q ~.
+. Albert Lang was nominated by
reclamation for clerk, as we're John

P. Camp for assessor and NJ. +. Snider
for school commissioner, there being
no Others before the convention for
these offices. A. G. Rector'S name was
presented for assessor but he declined
to allow it to be used.
A significant feature was the search
ty Of candidates for the various offices,
as well as the lack of interest at the
primaries the night before. The coun-
cilmanic candidates nominated were,
P. ]. Keenan,, first ward; W. A. VIII
kinson, second; j. b. Supler, third;

CONVENTION NOTES.
Jason Kester was candidate for
chief of police but his name was not
even presented. A prominent young
democratic leader wanted to charge
him fee to place him in nomination.
They gave j. T. Borgess. the icy
mftas usual, and that is one way of
rewarding the faithful.
Jason Kester has renowned his al
legiance to the democratic party for
ever, and says the democratic ring is
the worst he ever saw.
