man Smith. had no further use for his
services.
1t Is a fact that the original resolu-
tions did not contain the joker, which was
attached 10 the document and written IN
lead pencil on the paper and which was
supposed to get I'm bang az Onicer Sher-
man. II may have been that this was an
afterthought. or IL may have been that
there were certain members OF the board
who declined 10 sign the "censure, un-

A NEW LEADER.
The Republican party has got new
leader. and Isaac I,awton is apparently
down and out Mr.. Iawton has been try
ir/ to fill the position OF boss for the past
two or three years, but he made a Ia
mentable failure OF the job. Ever since he
assumed the reins, the party has been In
the minority. At the city convention early
this week, he was deposed and in his
place was elected Peter Clare Mr.. Clare,
who wants TO serve another term i'm the
legislature, is the member OF the Repub-
lican state central
He is the practical head OF the West
Side Republican club and Mr.. Lawton Is
the head OF the Lincoln Republican club
and between these two organizations
there is not a great deal of love lost.
Mr.. Clare will make the run for the
legislature and after the votes are count
ed he will probably wonder how many or
the members OF the Lincoln club voted
for his opponent and he will have plenty
OF time TO figure this matter out, because
his chances for election this year are
not especially bright.
HELD LOVE FEAST.
A large gathering Of Republicans as
sembled in the rooms OF the Lincoln as
sociation last evening and held a love
feast Chowder and other refreshments
put all the members in good humor. after
which cigars were lighted and an infor-
NAL smoke talk took place. The evening $
amusement was thoroughly enjoyed by
all present
DECLINES To RUN.
A committee representing the Republi-
can machine has waited on n. Howard
Easton this week with the offer OF the
Republican nomination for senator, but
he positively refused to have anything 10
do with IL. II seems quite evident that
self-respecting Republicans of the Baby
City are not especially desirous of taking
any part in the political game here this
year
