 and seven are selected. Those W
 are mentioned as some of the ei
 so far are William II. Rafferty, Fra
 Keeley, Chris Geraghty, Thomas
 German, formerly member of
 police force, and it is taken
 granted that all of the present q
 stables will look for a re-nominatid
 'I want 1t thoroughly understo, that I am not seeking a re-nomin tion on the democratic state centrJ committed. and If the position vel offered me, I would not accept 1t. am certainly tired of being a memb( of the committee and when my teri expires you may say for me, that will gladly give someone else chand to get on the committee and -eceiv hi5 share of the abuse" The abov statement was made by Captain Fit patrick to a Democrat reporter thl morning. and is a result of the storie that have been getting round to tn effect that the captain was seeking re-aomination on the state centra The captain of Compan c had much to say on the matte and if one were to judge by tn health commissioner comments, h has long since grown tired of servin as a committeeman.
