The ticket is considered a strong
one, as the union OF the forces opposed
to Alderman Dunn and his methods
means more earnest and better work
than has been possible In past cam
paigns. Representative John w. Hogan
Is one of the chief leaders in the pres
ent fight and his splendid services as
leader OF his party in the house OF
representatives. as well as his fine
record on the school committee and
his high professional standing, make
him a most potent factor in the com
ing contest.
STRONG WARD COMMITTEE.
Special attention was given by the
Democrats. who agreed on this ticket,
TO the selection OF ward committee,
as II was deemed wise to have a COM
mittee made up OF men who would be
devoted TO the party and remember
that the interests OF the Democratic
party were to be looked after at regis
tration time as well az on election day.
The selection OF ex-Councilman Joseph
IL. Gainer as the candidate for alder
man Is regarded as the best that could
possibly have been made. Mr.. Gamer
while a member OF the common coun-
ell and school committee did good ser
vice for the ward. The candidates for
the common council are well known
throughout the ward and are men who
will not prove understudies TO the Re-
publican machine.
1t Is proposed to begin at once n
vigorous campaign In support OF these
nominees. and everything possible will
be done TO get the voters who be-
lieve in supporting capable officials to
go to the caucus. There Is a strong
sentiment In this ward in favor OF the
denomination OF Mayor Mccarthy be-
cause OF his splendid service to the
city during the months he has been
| in office.
The residents OF the ward, too. take
| special pride In the career OF Mr.. Hogan
and appreciate the honor OF having the
leader OF the present campaign the leader
In the house OF representatives OF the re-
form cause.
DUNN TICKET NOT ANNOUNCED.
The Dunn ticket has not been officially
announced as yet. II Is generally under
stood that Alderman Dunn Is going 20
| make his fight against the mayor so much
| OF n personal matter that he will run a
| candidate for delegate 10 the convention
70 nominate municipal officers.
Alderman Dunn, according TO late re-
ports. will run for the office OF alderman
again. the prospect OF his nomination as
mayor not being sufficiently golden. lie
Is having the trouble OF his life though
In making up a council ticket. In Vans
kuck there are three men after the nom-
ination for councilman, IL is said. they be-
| ing former Assemblyman John G. Lyons,
| Ward Committeeman Rankin and former
Ward Committeeman Fogarty.

mood and will undoubtedly be renomin-

OF Alderman Dunn Councilmen Flynn and
