 The republicans appear to have no use for a candidate for alderman that comes from the working class. It is therefore of the greatest consequence to George Beach, a foreman in the employ of the Clock Go, who is the candidate referred to, that his friends get move on the nabobs of his party and carry the field for him.
 The republicans of the first and 5ec- ond wards were busy last evening. Practically it was their opening of the campaign. The object of the meetings in each of the wards mentioned was to select their men for aldermen and their delegates to the city convention. The republicans will have but one con yention this year, and this will nom mate all their candidates. Tn the first ward they practically agreed to en- dorse their present alderman and to select k. D. Stanley, who is employed at the Scoyill Manufacturing Co.'S plant. for their third man. They also selected their city delegates but their names they have wrapped up in se- crecy and the confusion of their meet ing, which was so long and warm that some of those who were present did Dot even glance at their mirrors this morning, and others closed their eyes when they put their heads under the pumps; but matters did not go so far as to prevent them initiating Psyche at natures mirror. But the republi- cans of the first ward are careful and they did not wish to risk chance of soaring themselves in any kind of q reflector
 Affairs hummed also at the meeting of the second ward republicans. This meeting was held in the home of the man who "don't want nawthin' but who has feasted every republican of note in the state. George l.. Lilley. What part MT Lilley took in helping to overthrow the expectations of Mr Beach is kept as secret as the names of the delegates from the first ward to the city convention. It will come out later MT Lilley was very happy to make his home the camping grounds of his ward brethren and hoped they would have stayed longer and come again. The visitors were also happy to have come and like their host were sorry they could not have stayed long, CT. 1t was great meeting; the finest that has so far been held by the re- publicans. There was not even a shadow of trouble here. The pipe Of peace, in form of MT Lilley's cigars, was smoked to the heel, and filled again and again, and then the scalp of George Beach, the workingman. who had the nerve to claim political honors in a ward where the nabobs, the princes and the rajahs. the dia- monds and the rubies and the aces of the party live and breathe and sparkle. was dropped The nerve of the man was astonishing and some one asked how would he look in chair in the legislature. Whereat there was a hearty laugh.
 Then it was suggested that as War ren l.. Hall has signified his intention | or retiring after his present term on the board of aldermen expires. to put in his place Louis Gates of Waterville. He would be a stronger man than NIT Beach; he would help to solidify Wa terville for his party, and above all it would not be necessary to put him under bonds to keep time with his party in the aldermanic chamber Soon after the meeting broke up
 Some of those who were at this meeting were asked why Beach was dropped and all they would say was: ''How did you get that? It won't be l we'll for the man to become known who gave that out"
