The reason for the first ward gathering being called at SAo'clock 1t has been explained is to hold the caucus in the Gem opera house. The Gem will be engaged until 7 o'clock with picture show.

In this ward 1t Is stated that some time ago a slate of dele gates was agreed upon so that there would be no contest. how ever, it is reported that three of those originally slated as delegates were not placed on the list when 1t was announced.
 This action has resulted in a.
 second list of delegates being named with the result that paiiot- ing will be in order in this Waro:
 In the first and second the iists of delegates have been decided upon and 1t is reported there Will be no contests.
 This year the delegates chosen will not take part in the nomlna- ton for representatives. the can didates for the general assembly being named at convention 10 be held some time in October.
