 Tor, Daniel T. Altman, James A. | White and ex-Alderman John J. Bro- phy. Each delegate was authorized to name his own alternate.
 The democrats are very busy mak- ing up slate for the coming city and state election. The governorship is still in the balance and it is likely to remain SO few days longer. The wise heads don't know what to make of the alleged breach in the republi- can machine, but there is no use de- lnying the fact that the local dele gates are for Thoms. It appears to be generally admitted that Mayor Reilly of Meriden will be nominated for congress. In case the nomination for governor should go to somebody outside Waterbury, 1t Is likely that Isadore Chase of this city will be the choice for lieutenant governor. There | is a good deal of rivalry for repre- sentatives. No doubt Alderman Hurley will succeed himself as sena- tor from the sixteenth district and
