titled to The Name "Republican.

City Clerk B, H. Wells decided last
evening at the conclusion Of hearing
held In the city council chamber last
ing over two hours that the Irregular"
republican ticket for representative
was one entitled to 60 on official bal.
lot under the name "Republican. y
All of the members OF the two rival
city committees as well as many spec
tatorS were pr sent. The arguments
we're at times heated and Mr.. Wells
was compelled to call the speakers to
order
The decision was received in good
faith by the republican city commit

nomination for representative and the
justice ticket chosen at the republican

titled to the name, "Republican. -

naval REVIEW
Grand Spectacle But The
Vessels Were
DANGEROUS HUlKs
The King Received Tremendous
Ovation

London, Aug. 10. - The British
public has received rude shock in
regard to the navy which made such
spectacular showing Saturday at
the naval review. From the specta-
cular point Of view the assemblage Of
a hundred and odd war vessels in the
roadstead off Spithead was magniti-
cent show, but to those looking be
meath the brilliant veneer of paint
and polish it was evident that the
lighting strength of the fleet was by
no means formidable, The lines Of
ships were thickly dotted with effec-
tiveneSs. Among these may be men
toned the third class Cruiser Caliope
of ASpia fame, while others included
such relics as the battleships, Devas-
tation, Dreadnaught, Camperdown
and Edinburgh.
These vessels are classed by some
experts as absOlutel, dangerous to
their crews, while some Of the noni
nally effective lighters are still armed
with mnzzle-lOaderS. t must be
pointed out however, that the display
represented merely the home lleet, not
a Single vessel having been Withdrawn
from foreign station to participate
in the pageant.
The five lines on which the fleet
was moored were midway between the
Isle OF Wight and the mainland.
Nearest to the Portsmouth shore
were the special service vessels and
yachts and few distinguished visit
ing vessels, headed oy the conspicuous
white hull Of the Japanese torpedo
boat destroyer AsaS 'hio.
