Democrats Nominate Burton E. Bal
| ley for City Representative.
! A well-attended Democratic caucus
held in the memorial room Of the city
hall last night, nominated Burton r.
Bailey as the Democratic candidate
! for city representative, The vote was
standing and unanimous. Mr.. Bailey
was nominated by Lynn C. Brooks,
and many others signified their APP
proyal by seconding. Mr. Bailey was
at first unwilling to accept the nom
nation, but it was so evidently the
desire Of the caucus that he finally all
| lowed his name to be used. Mr.. Bal
| ley has been kept out Of the field Of
elective office for the past eight years
| by his duties as postmaster, which he
concludes the end of this week. 1t is
evident that the Democrats welcome
him as candidate. He will oppose
Mason $, Stone, the Republican nomi-
nee, WHO recently withdrew as Demo
cratic nominee.
Nomination papers for Mr.. Bailey
and also for the list of justices Of the
peace recently nominated by the Dem
ocrats will be filed some time this
month. The time limit is understood
to be Is days before election. At the
meeting last night, J. p. Galleher,
chairman of the Democratic city com
mittee, was chosen as chairman, and

mittee, secretary.
