Statos. The Republican ticket, head
ed by Henry Crocker for mayor, seems
to have been solccted by both Demo
crats and Republicans alike, with tho
oxcoptlon of a few weak names for
supervisors, as that which should re
ceive tho support of tho business ele
ment The union labor party, while
strong and determined In many quar
ters, has rqcolvcd some sot-backs, and
supporters of Mayor Schmltz tho la
bor candidate, nro making strenuous
olTorts to offset tho work of dlsgrun
tied factions of their organization on
behalf of the Democratic candldato,
Franklin K. Lane.
Lane is a hard worker, and during
tho gubernatorial contest gave tho
presont governor, Pardao, a close raco.
At that time Lane was opposed by tho
Examiner, but that paper now glvos
him its loyalty, Ignoring Schmltz in
Its editorial expressions. Tho Chroni
olo is supporting tho Republican tick
et straight, aided by the Call, and in
most nominations by tho Post Tho
Bulletin supported Lane for governor,
and has not gono back on him for the
mavorality, Schmltz seems to roallze
that ho has a hard fight, and is put
ting forth all of his enorgy In tho bat
tie for place. Ho has not tho support
of what is known as the Central La
bor Club, and that is worrying him a
deal. Crocker will probably spend a
large sum of money in the fight, but
so far his "sack" has not put (n an
appearance.
