DISCONCERTS THE DEMOCRATS
They Find Their Own Ranks Split and
Republicans Gaining.
MORGAN SUITS THE BUSINESS MEN
Irrespective of Party the Mercantile
and ProfessionaI Interests Favor
Him-RaIIroad workmen Also
work for Him.

Dell G. Morgan is a stronger candidate
today than the day he was nominated for
mayor by the republican city convention,
and his election Is as sure as anything In
politics can be-" was the remark Of a
well known business man yesterday. This
remark shows the way the wind Is blowing
in the municipal campaign which will be
brought to a close next Monday at the polls.
Dell Morgan, who heads the republican
ticket, has been gaining strength daily and
it lie now certain that he will have the sup
port Of the business men Of the city ire
spective OF party Affiliations.
Mr.. Morgan's record as a successful bust
ness man a citizen who has earned the
respect Of all assures the city, in the event
OF his election. a clean, capable. businesslike
administration Of the affairs Of the NUM-
clpallty and this is what the business men
OF the city desire.
In accepting the nomination after 1t had
been declined by Mr.. Hannah, Mr.. Morgan
did SO at the earnest solicitation of many
Of the most prominent and influential bust
ness and professional men OF the city. While
he has not made any ostentatlous campaign
since his nomination, he has not been idle,
and his friends have rallied Loyalty to his
support with the result that not only is
uiS tleCllOu dlulObl II IOTeBOub COuClublOn5
but everything indicates a decided repub-
lean victory at the polls Monday.
Railroad Men swing to Morgan.
The railroad men. and their vote is a
power in Council Bluffs, have come out for
for Mr.. Morgan almost to q man, and with
their support, his friends say he cannot
be possibly defeated. Mr.. Morgan's record
while a member and president Of the
Board OF Education entities him to the sup
port Of organized labor, and It is said he
will receive 1t. The rapid gains Mr.. Nor
gan has made within the last few days have
completely disconnected the democrats, who
realizing the split in their own ranks, have
lost the confidence they displayed when It
became known Mr.. Hannah was unable to
accept the nomination for mayor.
The prospects for a complete republican
administration in city affairs for the next
two years were never brighter than now.
The business men realize that IL is not to
the best interests OF the community to have
a democratic mayor and a republican city
council. The election of a republican mayor
will place the police department under the
control Of the republicans, the same as
the fire department, and for this as we'll
as for other reasons, many Of the business
men Of the city will support Mr.. Morgan.
