TKLKfHOMM fOOf V. girmymnnifmniwrmifm Tho independent Republicans, who form tho larger proportion of the party, have satisfied themselves that Mr. Lynch is not a Kearns machine man, and they will therefore use all their influence with the eight Republican members of tho council to keep Mr. Lynch in the office, noth withstanding efforts which the incoming mayor and his friends may put forth to dislodge' him. They aro working to that end right now, and moreover there is a strong disposition to block all appointments iho new mayor may make until a definite understanding regarding the distribution of the patronage is reached. Its an unfortunate state of affairs, and will require a good deal of tact on the part of Mr. Morris to make things run smoothly. Of coure tho mayor and the other Democrats elected will be held responsible for the proper administration of the citys affairs and they should be given as free, a hand as possible. Mr. Morris, Truth is confident, can be trusted, and he should be given a fair chance to make htyi administration a success both for his own sake and ftr the good of tho people. .

To give the corporation permission to do that which no citizen or other corporation is allowed to do should be generally condemned. The people should demand an explanation from these truculent councilmen, who have done the city and its taxpayers this great wrong. Jt Jt There has been a great row between members of the board of public works and others about an error in recording a bid for sewer pipe, 29c or 39c, and ugly insinuations were exchanged between Chairman Clawson and the city engineer. It seems there was a good deal of fuss about very little. If the original bid was 29c, the bidder should be made to live up to his bid or for-feihis deposit. Thats theway Moran and other bidders expect to be treated, and its the only business way.

This did not leave anything for the independent Republicans and gave rise to the charge that the Democrats were going to build up a political machine for use next fall. Jtjt Mayor Thompson, until a very short time before be sent in the name of Mr. Lynch for confirmation, had no intention of filling the vacancy In the police department. He was going tc leave it to his successor, but he says lie was informed that if he did so Arthur Pratt would bo appointed to the office and Mayor Thoinps.n does net like Pratt. This, however, was a mistake, as Pratt wouldnt take the office if it wore tendered him. He has something a good deal better in view. Mr. Pratt went to Washington and attended the meeting of the National Republican committee, in lieu of O. J. Salisbury, who was unable to attend.

That there will be a battle royal between the Kearns and forces to see who will select these delegates, seems anti-Kear- ns to he conceded. The latter faction are already at work throughout the state and claim to be making gains every day The plan is to shut the senator out from going as a delegate and to relegate him to the visitors seat. Jt Jt July 15, or thereabouts, will be the date set for holding the Democratic national convention. Thiq being so, it is very likely that the state convention will be held about the latter part of June. There will be no contest worth mentioning in the Democratic convention; nothing more than the usual rivalry for the place. Jt It is stated by those who claim to be in a position to know, that Senator Kearns contemplates!? making a change of lieutenants. It is said that the senator is very much dissatisfied with the manner in which his campaigns have been conducted and that he will endeavor to place the management of his affairs in other hands. Who the mantle will fall upon is a matter of conjecture, as it is understood the senator has not made any open expression of choice as yet. But a new man will be at the helm this coming winter and a new voice will express the wishes of the senator in the various conventions. o FOR 8ALE.
