No Candidates Have
Yet Announced For
Council In Heights

Tomorrow night at s o'clock nomi-
nations will be made for councilmen
from the two wards recently added
to the city by the annexation of a
portion of Palatka Heights. Four
aldermen will be nominated, two for
one year and two for two years. Up
ito last night no one seemed to know
who would be a candidate, of whe-
Rther or not there would be any can
didates.
The nominations, which are equal
to election, will be made just as they
are made in Palatka, the electors as
sembling at either of the two polling
places and nominations are made
there. Then ballot is taken.
With the addition of the two wards
from the Heights there win be eigh-
teen men on sthe council. If it has
been bulky and unwieldly before it
will be still more so under the new
plan and it may be necessary to en-
large the city hall to accommodate the
Ialdermanic body. -

of maintaining the army, navy and

be impossible to get along with much

Iby British newspaper in which King
George was quoted as having told the
Premier in conversation concerning
the Irish troubles that, II cannot have
my people killed in this manner"
London has no orders to give the
dominions", was the comment of H.

he expected any such incident as the
cancellation Of the British embas7
sy dinner in Washington, to which
they had been invited on the remain

will take him through Canada, Aus
tralia and other parts of the British
Empire.
The interview attributed to Lloyd
George in some newspapers abroad,

Mr.. Steed, however, declared today
