Certificates Of nominations from the
cities of Scranton and Carbondale are
now all in. Yesterday was the last
day for filing them and any person who
now desires to get on the ballot for
the coming election as a candidate
must do so through the medium of
nomination papers. Jan. 2S is the last
day for filing nomination papers. Both
Democrats and Republicans yesterday
filed nominations for poor director.
The Democrats have no candidate in
Hyde Park borough. John Howell was
nominated, but requested that his
name be taken from the ticket.
In many wards the fighting will be
very vigorous. Numerous candidates
are IN the field and in some instances
there are several sets of candidates,
each claiming to be either the regular
Republican or Democratic nominees.
Steps must be taken to have the court
say who is who or the commissioners
Will have to leave both of the rival
sets of candidates off the official bal
lot.
There are so many Citizens and In
dependent party ticket in the field in
the strong Democratic wards that p.
w. Costello has had himself nominated
as the Citizens and Independent par
ty candidate for city controller. that he
may not lose Democratic votes be-
cause of the factional ward fights. The
