CANDIDATES FILE PAPERS.
Only q Few Contests For NOmina-
tons Organization Candi-
dates Decide Not To Contest.

Much interest has been felt and
displayed for several days by the
general public over the question of
who would be the candidates for
the various positions upon the diff
ferent tickets which had to be fill
ed with the Supervisors of Elec-
lions last night, if there were con-
tests. Deep secrecy, apparently pre-
vailed among all of those inter-
ested; no amount of questioning
could get out of those who We're
supposed to know, the names of
the candidates for the nominations.
Upon the Democratic side it was
believed that there would be a con-
test all along the line, and every
preparation was made for such, ex-
eept the filing of the papers, which
had been prepared and in readiness
sometime before the hour fixed
by the Supervisors, but after dis
cussing the matter thoroughly, the
candidates and their friends, who
were identified with what is known
a. the anti-organization end of the
party. decided to file no papers at
all, leaving the ticket as made up
by the organization without oppo-
sition.

The Republicans have, apparent
", experienced not a little difficult
ty in making up ticket. as they
endeavored to capture the Bull
Moose leaders and satisfy their own
people as we'll, which was not an
easy task; in fact, the Bull Moos-
ers proved to be quite wary politi-
clans, and it was not until they
were given substantial recognition
in the makeup of the ticket that
they finally lined up with their
former comrades.
The ticket. as made up, is COM
prised OF the following:
For Senator-Edward S. Phillips,
OF Cambridge.
