Friday night had withdrawn. 1t Is nm
derstood that his place will be filled by

Because r. Jensen, the Ridge road
saloon keeper, who was also nominated
for justice of the peace by the Gary
democrats. has been found to be re-
publican he will also withdraw. Tom
Conroy or Tom Costello Of Acker and
Schmidtb clothing store is scheduled
for his place. The nomination of jan
sen for a place on the democratic ticket
was a surprise to him as he is repub-
lican. Tim Englehardt was his spon-
sor.
The third candidate who was nomi-
mated on Mayor Knots slate at the
democratic convention will also with
draw. He is c. ]. Williams who has
been a lifelong republican and who
feels much elated and embarrassed by
the honor accorded him. 1t is under
stood that Carl j. Cooper will take his
place on the ticket.
A letter was dispatched to the demo-
