G. o. p. SEEMS SET FOR
CERTAIN CANDIDATES

The local political prophets and
tab-keepers were completely up in
the air today as the municipal cleo
ton seemed going first this way and
hen The other. and at press time this
afternoon i; was stn purely a mat
ter of speculation as what the out
,ome would be There occurred moth
ing 10 indicate a decided drift TO
aithcr ticket In fact if there has
been any one outstanding fact in the
lays development. il has been that
he independent vote is swinging the
balance OF power.
From every ward come reports that
individual candidates on both tickets
ire polling heavy complimentary
votes. and that many Democrats and
also Republicans are splitting" their
respective tickets for their personal
Iayoriics. This is taken 10 mean that.
Of course considerable cutting is
being done especially for the Al
lermanic candidates; there being
instance. in the Third Ward the Re-
.,uhIicans are apparently coneonirat-
ng their efforts behind Frank \. Nun
roe for Alderman. with the result that
a heavy poll will likely result for
him. to the consequent falling off the
vote for either candidates McCready
or Douw on the opposite ticket The
rumor is current in the Third Ward
this afternoon that the latter is the
one whose candidacy will suffer most
in this respect.
In the other wards, the voting seems
40 be running about as usual along
party lines. With an indications point

Democratic standard bearers. There

is concerned. it is at this hour prac-
ically a stand-Of. with the outcome
depending on the final drive" dur
