They Meet Mayor Bransford.

Mayor John S. Bransford was Of
feTed the nomination for mayor on
the Citizens ticket yesterday by
committee which said it was author
lied to act by the central committee
of the Citizens party. As the dele
gates who will name the mayOralty

a meeting of Democrats in the offices
of Moyle G Van Colt.
The inner circle of the American

Lippman in his race for the mayOral-
ty nomination, has switched H. G.
Mcmillan, whom the inner circle has
been supporting, has been shelved,
and the inner circle is out for Brans-
ford. The intention is to whip Lipp-
man at any cost.
Mayor BransfOrd practically admit
ted last night that he would accept
all the nominations offered him.
Several Democrats met at the law Of
fices of Moyla < Van Colt in the Deseret
National Bank building last night and
decided on Bransford to head their ticket.
A committee consisting of former Mayor
Richard 2. Morris, John Dern and A. N
Mckay was named to confer with Mayor
BransfOrd. and to ask him whether or
not he would consider a nomination on
the Democratic ticket This committee
will meet with the mayor at 10 O'Clock

went to see who was there. As he

aside, whereupon he quickly closed
the door.
As the night was dark, Sawyers
could not ascertain who or what his

went out. As he emerged from the
door the gun was Knocked from his

desperate fight.
Word has been sent to all. of the
desert stations that can be communi-
Gated with, and where he will have to
go for provisions, and it is expected
that his capture will be effected sooner
or later. His home is among the Piutes
in western Nevada, and he may head
for there.
Three officers and two Indian trailers
left today from Daggett, hoping to head
off the outlaw or pick up his trail.
The belief of Sheriff Wilson is that
the fugitive is making for the Cheme-
huvis reservation on the Colorado river
and that he will secure provisions there
and then strike for Death valley.
Another posse will start from here
