Talking States
for Coming City
Commissioner Race

The latest political rumor is that Harry
3. Zimman will be placed on the city hall
slate in place of Commissioner j. j.
Ryder Like most of the political reports
being circulated just now, it is difficult
TO trace this one back to its source. As
a matter of fact, there has been no Of
fetal announcement of a city hall slate,
but the politicians take It for granted
that the present commissioners will pres
ent a solid front at the primary on April 6.
Mr.. Zimman says he has heard of this
matter from various sources, but Is dis
inclined to take it seriously. His opinion
is that the present city commissioners
will all stand together for the primary, or
else make individual campaigns.
Louis Burmester is actually in the race.
His petition is being circulated and he is
out with his quest for support.
Joe Morrow, bailiff in the county court
building, has something under his
hat, which he will not reveal TO even his
closest confidants. Mr.. Morrow is said
TO be working up Sutton slate" but he
very discreetly denies knowledge of any
such activity. The best information
available on the subject is that Mr.. Nor
row is endeavoring TO form a nucleus OF
sutton, F. S. Howell S. A. Corpeer and
John Drexel.
Among the new candidate possibilities
are John Power. former sheriff and
known as Honest John" Power; w. j.
Hunter, former member of the old fire
and police board, and Edward Simon
member of the last legislature.
