ARE NOT FOR HUGHES.
Majority of Republican Members
of Council Opposed to Him.

J. w T. Hughes served several terms
in rhe city council, and of the II mem
bers OF that body. most of whom served
with Col. Hughes and know him best,
only one is actively in favor of him for
mayor. This one is S. A. SWendson, of
hughes own ward.
1t is difficult to secure an expression
from the members of the council as to
their views in the mayor fight, because
they do not want to so on record and
thus possibly prejudice their interests
with the new mayor But from private
conversations with various members of
the council it is evident that Hughes
has only one staunch supporter in the
whole dozen
George Tincher, the other Sixth ward
councilman, VIII say nothing against
Hughes, and viii do nothing TO oppose
him, but it is well known among Tinch-
er's friends that he would much prefer
to see W S. Bergundthal in the mayor s
chair.
c. Y. Wolf, of the Third ward, makes
no secret of the fact that he is opposed
to Hughes for mayor. and Wolf is the
man whom the law and order people
elected by means of a still hunt" over
NJ. Snattinger. Wolf is a radical prohi-
bitionist
Councilman Howe is an Original
Bergundthal man, and did his best to
have Bergundthal endorsed by the Com
mittee of One Hundred. He may sup
port Hughes because Hughes was en-
thai because he believes Bergundthal
would make a better mayor.
Councilman Geo. Neil. of the Third
ward. is a Bergunothal man. because he
knows what sort of work Mr.. Bergund-
thai has done in the council and would
like to advance him to the office OF
mayor.
These are the four members of the
council. who with SwendsOn and Der
gundthal make up what might be called
the radical prohibition wing of the
council All of these. with the excep-
ton of Swendson. are opposed to
Hughes.
Nichols, who are called the liberal Re
publican members of the council. are
hostile to Hughes. They may not line UP
with Bergundthal, and one or two of
them for political effect, may claim
friendship with Hughes, but their senti-
ments are well known to those familiar
with the local political situation. and
Blanch will probably support Bergund-
thai while Nichols and Weber may go
for Lewis
Joseph Griley. J. w Blossom, F. B.
Snyder the three Democrats. are of
course barred from participation in Re
publican primaries but they are all OPP
( posed to Hughes and would prefer either
Of the Republican candidates as mayor.
Thus of the six prohibition members
] of the council five can be said to be
I opposed to Hughes. the official law and
order candidate. if not actively, then
silently. The other six members of the
/ council want Hughes least of all the
candidates who have been proposed. 1t
/ is not a very strong Endorsement TO come
! from body of men who know more
/ about Hughes capacity for the position
of mayor than anyone else can know.
