Conference to Be
Held by All
Parties.
REPUBLICANS TO
MEET PORTUGUESE
Fifth District Territorial Matters
Still in a Nix Up But Nesotia-
tions Are Continued.

Committees of the Republican organ
a committee from the Portuguese Po-
litical Club for the purpose of ascer-
tanning what representation shall be
given to that body of voters in the
makeup of the Republican ticket for
the Legislature. The meeting will be
held at the Republican headquarters,
and will be composed of 90 men.
The overtures have all been made in
the matter, and there seems every rea-
mite conclusion reached although the
committee named by the Fifth district
club last evening was instructed that
it's power was only that of a confer
ence, and that it could not bind the
committee to action in the matter of
making nominations. There will be in
che meeting four blocks of five. The
Territorial Central Committee will be
represented by five of it's members. the
district committees will have the same
number each in the meeting and the
committee of five from the Portuguese
club will make up the remaining end
of the meeting.
The coming together of the various
members from the districts will furnish
a chance also for the Republicans to
talk over q plan for the amalgamation
of the strength of the Democratic par
ty with the Republicans for work dur
ing the campaign. There has been
submitted to the Republican leaders
suggestions that there be such a fusion
of votes for the Legislature as will
make it possible for the Democracy to
secure some members of the body and
these are now being considered. While
the committees are not authorized to
take up the work of the arrangement
of such a fusion the matter will be dis
cussed in the opinion of some of the
members.
After the request of Chairman Rob-
ertson Of the Central committee that
the Fifth district take a hand in the
matter of the conference, had been
laid before the committee last evening
by Chairman Achi, on resolution, the
Chair named a committee of five. The
sentiment was expressed that there
were not enough voters of that nation
ality to permit Of nomination in the
Fifth. The committee will be as fol-
lows: J. d. Avery William Henry,
Shaw, Isaacs, Lot Lane. 4
FIFTH DISTRICT SENATORSHIP. /
After many attempts to harmonize
the various different factions in the
Fifth district, so as to ensure the NOM
ination of a senatorial ticket that Will
ensure the unification of all the ele-
ments, there seems now likely to be a
fight before the committees when they
meet in joint convention to make NOM
nations for the offices. The seventh
precinct men, with some of those from
the eighth, held a caucus recently and
decided that they would propose John
C. Lane and DR.. George Huddy as the
for the senate from the
Fifth, expecting that a haole would be
named from the Fourth to fill the
ticket
The friends of w. c. Achi have all
along maintained that they will be able )
TO nominate him again, and as the rae
tional fight RACES about him 1t is be-
Iieved that the ironclad agreement that
the men pledged to Huddy and Lane |
was aimed only at his defeat. Negou- ,
atoms were entered into yesterday
looking to the honorable withdrawal of !,
auddy from the race, the agreement
upon Achi and Lane as the ticket and
The placing of Huddy on the list for the
over house. Huddy refused finally to
agree to this. and the terms of the
pledge of support to him makes It nee
.ssary that his followers go into the
oint convention to vote as unit to
he end for their ticket. 1t was said at
me time that Lane would be willing to
etlre in favor of Huddy, but none of 1
