Citv Machine Is On.

Struggle Tor control OF hepuD1lcan
City Machine Is On
AS has been announced in the State
Journal there will be another fight this
year on March IL for the control of the
Republican CITY central committee
With only a short time to spare, the
liberal Republicans jumped into the
game Saturday afternoon, ana placed
An nomination p candidates one at
large in each ward. and one for most
of the separate precincts. This is just
the way the thing was done last year.
1t is prOba BILE that some of those
nominated viii refuse to serve as can
didates-they usually do, as there IS
nothing in it except considerable bother
and q slight political prestige
Last year the law and order candle
dates were elected in almost every pre-
einct. This year the liberal Republican
faction hopes to retrieve some Of the
lost ground, and possibly regain con-
troll of the committee Last year the
law and order people very adrOitiy
used the committeeman fight in the
Third ward to ambush their scheme to
make a still hunt on Councilman Snat-
finger Under pretense of getting out
The women to vote for committeeman
they We're given instructions to scratch
snattinger and vote for Wolf This
they did and Wolf was nominated.
