hurley and Doran Forces to Clash in
the Fifth.
There promises to be fun in the glorl-
Gus fifth ward between the Hurley and
the Doran forces. The former will
have nothing to do with the latter. and
as Strobel Is working for the support
of both he is in a utiandary. He Is
like the fellow With two strings to his
,bo~s Oh like him who had two best
giris: he would be happy with either.
but he needs the company of both. and
needs It badly. AS the Hurley forces
have refused to have anything to do
With the Dorans. the probability is that
he Will get out an independent ticket.
BtroBel is playing hard for Htirleys
support. It appears to be more Hur-
sey's desire to crush the Dorars. for
whom he has no earthly use, than to
support strubei. There is a good
chance for the Economic leaguers to
faso With Hurley. There is to be
meeting this evening in the City hall OF
tho Strobei forces. He wishes to have
say In the makeup OF all the ward
tickets but the ward leaders are kick
ing over the traces ut this Threatened
ustirpation of their inherent rights.
The betting is ON Charters. for organ
lAed labor has been aroused.
Chris strobel's managers have call
ed d meeting to be held in the city
court room Tonight. Great things
are expected to follow as q RESULT OF
this session. as notices have been sent
out quite freely to local democrats.
The executive and ward committees
of the Economic league will hold an i'm
portaat meeting III Buffers and Polish
ers' hall tomorrow evening. The diff
ferent committees were going to meet
in various places, but it is thought best
to meet together and thereby obtain
mutual advantages. All members
should attend this meeting.
Chairman Hololan OF the democratic
town committee desires to call particu-
lar attention to rule of the laws in re-
gartl to primaries OF the democratic
party. The rule in question is as fol
lows; All tickets presented at pris
niaries shall be uniform in size, 9x4
inches. and shall be printed on plain
white forty pound machine book pa
per, M eolOred, tinted or tissue ballot
nor any other that has any distin guish-
ing cut design or any other mark upon
it. nor any double ballot shall be
j. counted for my person Upon said
ticket"
sIr Strobel this afternoon said ''We
will fight in every ward of the city.
aud things are beginning to look very
bright iii New Haven. I will win in
Waterbury easily next Monday, and
have no fear of the result of the eau,
cuses in the smaller towns of the
county which have not yet held them"
AIR Strobel added that when he started
in thesraces he did not expect to receive
the support with which he had met
everywhere, He is evidently sanguine
OF success. and said that he allowed
