of the Pothier club held last evening and
at that time the club members picked out
a set of delegates. which they will sup
port at the coming Republican caucuses.
IL is evident that the members OF this
club propose 10 run the Republican par
~ i'm their section of the city and unless
the machine agrees to that then there IS
going 10 be a fight The indications are
that other members OF the party may not
quite like this, but IL looks as though
there was only the alternative Of accept
ing the Pothier club mandate or fight.
The ticket which was selected last night
follows:
For city convention from the First
ward the club selected Joseph Masse and
Joseph n. Martel. while for delegate 10
the state convention Joseph A. Poliquin
was the choice. From the Second ward
the club named for the city convention
Demase Viau and Felix Breault and for
