other Nominations.

In rapid order the nominations for
city clerk, city treasurer, assessor,
city attorney and jailer were made.
Arthur Y. Martin for city attorney is
another nomination distasteful to the
Democrats. because superior. And
John ]. Dorian, for treasurer, a fore
gone conclusion, with George Lehn-
hard for clerk, and Harlan Griffith
for assessor, complete the circle OF
strength.
In the jailer's race George An
drecht and j. NJ Dunaway were
placed in nomination and to decide
another count of the convention was
necessary. This was accomplished by
a division, which showed Andrecht
to be the overwhelming choice, and
it was made unanimous.
The Committees.
Chairman Miller read his appoint

tons and nominations for aldermen,
councilmen and school trustees. On

this capital, said In speaking of the
alleged revolution in the sonth of
China, that American officers who
had left the army of the United

the rebels had an army equipped af-

Mr.. LANG states that when he
was representing his government in
Manila a couple of years ago. the re-

the reform movement, the Free
Masons," were employing American
officers whose terms OF enlistment

CROWD TOO GREAT
TO Be HOUSED UP
The Republican City Conven-
ton Breaks all Records
Harmony and Enthusiasm Marked the
Notable Gathering of Paducah
Citizens.
TICKET THAT WILL SUCCEED.

Portending the election in Novem-
Der for municipal Offices, the Repub-
lican city convention held on South
Fourth street in front of the city
hall yesterday afternoon at o'clock,
revealed state of the popular mind
favorable to a clean ticket, more en-
lightened and vigorous than even the
Republican leaders, sanguine of sue
cess, had dared to hope. The spirit
of the convention, as manifested in
the attendance and the strong parti-
san enthusiasm. Indicated more than
a Republican movement. 1t indicated
that the controlling idea arising from
Paducah at this time, is for clean and
efficient government. for nothing
short of such popular interest.
would send 500 men, $50 of whom
were Democrats, out into the broil-
ing sun, there to shout themselves
hoarse for their favorites, and when
their favorites were beaten, to raise
one united shout of harmony and
support.
In the nomination of James p.
Smith for mayor the Democrats see
fight on their hands, which they
had dreaded and which they had
tried to avert. This is not partisan
Boosting. but a fact which the spirit
OF the Democratic leaders admit, for
in serious conversation they indicate
their anxiety about November. in a
degree that means without exception
the hardest political fight Paducah
has ever seen. The spirit of Paducah
demanding a clean and efficient gov
eminent swelled above party lines in
yesterdays convention, and it is a
fact that that very idea has found
complete embodiment in James p.
Smith, against whom they have not
found one single loop-hole for at
tack. that portends a Republican vic
tory in November.
Youth meets youth in the persons
of James p. Smith and Thomas B.
Harrison, and unbiased Judgment
says that taken on merits. the battle
already is won for the Republican
ticket in November.
Greatest Convention.
1t was the greatest Republican
convention sever held in McCracken
county. A Democratic convention as
enthusiastic cannot be recalled.
Whatever may have been the har-
mony over the minor nominations
with the exception of jailer. not I'M
til 24O men had been counted for
w. T. Miller for chairman, was it
known who would be nominated for
mayor. S. r. Hubbard, the Palmer
candidate for chairman, received 239
votes. The enthusiasm for each cam
didate for mayor was unbounded,
but strong as his nomination was, it
was not too radical to prevent COM
plete amalgamation for Smith as
soon as it was apparent that he was
the choice of the convention.
Called to meet in the police court
room of the city hall at o'clock, be.
fore 1880 O'Clock that room did not
have standing room and twice the
number inside were in the Railways
