At the citizens’ meeting last Tues- day there was @ committee appointed —three ropublicans and three demo- crats—to nominate a candidate for councilman from the First ward. The committee consisted of Paul Vander- voort, William Doll and C. F. Good- man, republicans, and Henry (iil- more, D, Guild and Heury Siegelke, democrats, They met at 10 a. m., Wednesday, and agreed upon Ernesi Stuht. During the afternoon pres- sure was brought by Dr. Miller and others, including Frank Walters, te make no recommendation of Mr. Stuht. That night Paul Vander- voort, on behalf of the First ward committee, said they had no report to make, When asked why de did not report he said: Let them go on with the primaries, and then if the right man was not nominated by the dero- crats and republicans they would act. A recess of fifteen minutes was taken, #o that the First ward committee could report. During the recess Vandervoort was asked why he did not report on Stunt, as the committee were disposed to. His ru';;ly Was, first, that Stuht reads Tur BEg; sec- ond, that five years ago he opposed Hiteheock and was a friend of Judge Briggs; lastly, he was objected to be- cause that he, with other peu?le west of Tenth street, favored the Eleventh street viaduct. Thereupon McGiav- ock was endorsed by the citizens’ meeting. I submit whether Vander- voort is just the kind of man to force candidates on the people of the First ward, to further certaln ends he has in view, which will be ventilated pres- ently, Finsy Warn Tax-Paves
